Thirty-twO-POunderS at Memphis.

We find the following full particu.

that city: ..
The Minute Men have had rendered
to them sixteen thirty.two-pound can

came the purchaser when the Federal
Government disposed Of the Navy
Yard of the city. These guns are,
we learn, in good condition, and will
Immediately be put in working order
A committee, consisting of Capt
James Hamilton, Col VIM. r. Hunt
d. b. Malloy, Anthony Street, and C.
Dcloach, have been appointed to take
the business in charge, and proceed at
once to carry out the purposes Of the
association.
1t is the purpose Of the committee,
we learn, to apply TO the city council
for the privilege Of erecting the bat
terry at such point as may be selected
as well as for an appropriation com
mensurate with the plan proposed.
The presence of these cannon seems
almost providential. and it bchooves
us, occupying the position that Mem.
phis does, to avail ourselves of every
means to repel an attack, and ensure
safety, should actual hostilitics, o.
which there now seems little doubt
occur. Let US, by all means, strength
en- ourselves in every available man
ner, so as to prepare for any and eve
ry contingency. We trust that oul
patriotic and public spirited citizens
will aid the committee in this work
which may eventually prove our sal
walton, and show the Abolitionists ant
their Federal allies, if they should at
tempt coercion, that here in Tennessee,
they will be welcomed with the cour
tesies Of war.

The SEAsoN.-Wc arc having a SC.
we're winter about equal to the win
ters of 1856 and 1851. The snow in
this vicinity is about eighteen inches
deep. Fifty miles south and west Of
us it is two feet deep. On the line OF
the Dubuque railroad the storms have
been more severe than in this vicinity,
and the roads are in a much worse
condition. Our Eastern mails have
been delayed some ten days, and only
arrived on Monday evening. The
thermometer, last Sunday morning,
stood at $50 below 0. This was the
coolest morning Of the present winter.
Notwithstanding the severity of the
wsather, the sleighing is generally
good and business is brisk. The
farmers and merchants arc active in
marketing their grain. pork and other
produce, and large quantities are daily
sent forward to eastern markets.

New ORLEANS IrEM.-Gov. Moore,
commander-in.chief of the army and
navy of Louisiana, has issued orders
to the Balize pilots not to pilot any
American vessel of war over the bar
at the mouth of the Mississippi river.
under the severest penalties. This
order places the pilots in rather a
tight box. If a vessel Of war, bearing
the American flag. should overhaul a
pilot boat in the Gulf, the probability
is that the pilot will have to go on
board the vessel of war, or the pilot
boat and all hands will be sunk.
When the pilot gets on board the
vessel Of war, the next probability is
that his attention will be called to the
yard arm, with the emphatic hint that
if he does not do his duty faithfully,
he will have to danglc in the air. If
this is not placing the Balize pilots in
q tight box we cont know what is.

The New Senator from Wisconsin.

Timothy Otis Howe was born in
Oxford county, Maine, in 1918, and is
consequently in his 44th year. The
Washburns were ncighbors, or lived
but three or four miles distant, and
the recent rival candidates for Scna.
tor were boys together. After re,
ceiving a classical education, Mr.
Howe studied law, and entered upon
the practice of his profession at Read
field, Kenncbcc county, Maine. There
he became acquainted and formed al
intimate friendship with Lot NJ. Nor.
rill, just elected to the Senate from
Maine, which has continued TO the
present time. In his native State he
served one or two terms in the Lcgis
laturc, VIM. Pitt Fesscnden being a
member of the same body at the same
time. In lS45 he came to this State,
then territory, and opened law Of
fee at Green Bay. In 1850 he was
elected Judge of the Circuit and Su-
prcmc Court, since which time his ca
rccr in the State is familiar to all.
AS II lawyer he ranks among the
first in the State, and as a public
speaker he has no superior in pcrspi-
Guilty of style and clcarncss of reason
ing. His manner when speaking is
not unlike that Of Mr.. Lincoln dclib-
crate, candid, and appealing to the
reason and conscience of his hearers
rather than to their passions and
prciudiccs. .MHnaukee Sentinel.

The Vicksburg 0utrages.

The Louisville journal of the 2lst
says I'VE yesterday saw a highly
respectable kentuckian, Il warm Sc
ccssionist, direct from Vicksburg. We
learn from him that it is fact that a
battery is planted on the shore of
the Mississippi at Vicksburg so as to
command the river. He says that a
good many boats, passing down, were
brought to, especially in the night, the
object being to get possession of the
government ordnance on its transit
south. A shot was fired across tho
bow Of one boat, and then the cannon
was aimed directly at her, but it
flashed without going of, and the boat
rounded to. Three of the military
companies of Mississippi were in
charge of the battery, AMI they with
drew it from the shore few days
since and seized the United States
Hospital, which they are now occupy
ing. They are no doubt resolved to
seize upon all the United States prop
erty that they can lay their hands
on"

1t is reported that many Of the ciii-
zens OF our ncishboring town of Floyd
have been induced to emigratc to
Mitchell county and vote there ON the
county scat question, on promise
that the tract of land, three miles
wide, formerly set off from Floyd
county, shall be restored, thus bring
ing the town Of Floyd nearer the cen
tire of the county and that then the
Mitchell boys will settle in Floyd long
enough to vote the County Seat from
St. Charles to Floyd. \ very nice
bargain. This transferring land from
Mitchell county to Floyd reminds us
of the story Of a distinguished person
age who once took Jesus Christ up
into a high mountain and offered to
sell him all the lands of the earth,
when the truth was that the poor
devil didn't own foot Of land. The
voting business is game for two TO
play.

Private adviccs from Washington
are to the effect that the danger of the
seizure Of that city by an armed mob
of Southern Disunionists is far more
serious and imminent than is mag
ined by people abroad. The few com.
panies of regular troops whom Gen.
Scott has stationed in the District,
with the newly enrolled and morgan
lied body of the citizens of the Dis
trict, cannot be relied on against a
coup de main executed by a large force
Of desperate men well armed, and
suddenly launched against the city.
Do those who prefer to stand quietly
by while the Republic is destroyed,
think it will be proper to resist sncll
an attack :? Or will they endcavor
to compromise and try Cancellation or

his acquaintance in the city. He is
known to have a comprehensive poll
cy. which includes practice with the
sixty-two columbiads on the city Of
Charleston, on proper provocation, of
course. 1t could scarcely be expect
cd that there should be an abundance
of good feeling towards him here.
Capt. Foster Informed me, not long
since, that the Smelling of the city
from Fort Sumpter, was entirely prac-
ticablc if it was not, he preferred to
know it from actual experiment.
People here begin to talk about the
expense of this state Of things, and
the Legislature is engaged on the an
nual tax bill. Pretty much everything
is to be taxcd-gold watches, and all
sorts Of luxuries and ornaments. The
occupation Of Fort Sumpter, and the
disbanding Of the troops, seems to be
regarded as the only way to stop the
expense, and thus that perilous enter
prise begins to be viewed in the light
of financial measure

Fort Sumpter

Fort Sumpter has near to one hun
drcd men, of all sorts. as need be
They have had hard work to get thcil
guns into position from the want OF
hosting apparatus, but have never
thclcss done it. As toprovisions they
are we'll enough off for three or foul
months. OF course, they have not
the Injuries of life, but those arc not
usually deemed essential in such ca.
scs. They are, however, now fully
prepared for whatever may come.
Can the fort be taken by the Charles
tOnians by an assault in overwhclm
ing numbers surrounding it and seal
ing its walls !? The opinion Of mill
tary men, and the deductions Of all
experience, arc that this cannot be
done by raw troops. 1t might be &C.
complished by regulars, thoroughly
drilled, used to service, strictly ODE
dent to orders, and with perfect conf
dcncc in their officers. A force of two
thousand men of this character NIGH
effect its capture, but then only with
prodigious sacrifice of life. But ii
is confidently believed that rar troops
arc wholly incapable of the service
and, moreover, that they would be
more certain to fail by Il night than
by day attack, since a surprise is
ont of the question. As to preaching
the fort from the shore, the distance is
too great.
The resources of the fort for dc.
fence are numerous and vast. First,
it has highly accomplished officer of
Engineers, in Capt. Foster, who is well
verscd in his profession, and who has
made this particular question his spec
ial study for several months. lie has
seen service, and is known to be fully
master of his position. The main de.
fence against the suggested assault
is the hand grenade This is most
deadly instrument, thrown 10y hand,
and deals death and destruction whcr-
ever it alights. One of them thrown
into boat tears it to pieces and de-
stroys all on board. They can be
thrown by the garrison from under
cover where the men can neither be
reached nor seen. Capt. Foster is
known to have been practicing his men
in the practice with this weapon, until
their proficiency is perfect.
But great security against attack
is the capacity Of the fortress to shell
and destroy the city Of Charleston.
1t can readily do this. and it is dan
ger the authorities will not incur. 1t
is better to let the fort alone than to
take it at such a cost, even if this
were possible. But Charleston might
be destroyed and the attack fail at
the same time.
Can the fort be relieved by sending
supplies TO its assistance by water T?
This does not seem possible, unless
,y stealth. The passage into Charles
on harbor is guarded now by such
formidable batteries that no vessel,
lot even ship-of-war, could force its
way. Ships are no match for land
Ten guns on shore, with a
air chance, can sink a seventy-tour.
Neither can Fort Sumpter do much of
in the way of attack upon
hcsc batteries. They are, to be sure,
lot too far to be reached both by shot
nd shell. But, Notwithstanding, all
hat can be done would be to kill a
ew men, and now and then dislodge
gun. Nothing like q destructive at.
ack can DC made by the fort upon the
,attcrics.
