and that if Fremont wishes he will be permitted to
remain there also, upon parole of honor !; but that
decent respect for the honest community of St.

- EsaE EFromth Brownsville Flag Of the 2ith u
From an extra of the. Foto Popular. we learn
that fight occurred at Reynosa on the morning
Of the 2Ist inst, between Rejos and the GrnoIin6s,
she former being the attack ng party, under DON
Andres Trevino, and the latter being fortified in
the town, under DON Trinidad Flores, with one
piece of artillery se@,as . ~. zsa4 ee4s-
: The attack took place early in the morning, and
continued for seven hours, ending in the capture
Of the city and eighty prisoners, including the
officers. A considerable quantity of provisions
and munitions were taken. The Rojos had no
men killed., and but few wounded, among whom
were twoor three officers The Crinolinos lost foar
or five killed and quite number wounded.
By private letters we learn that all the Crinoinos
who signed the prounciamiento, and who have
been taken prisoners have been sentenced to be
shot, and all who could not be found had their pro-
perty seized. Among the number Francis Bali, of
this city, lost considerable.
1t was reported that number of the prisoners
would be shot on the morning of the 25th. 5f
The receipt of the above news at Matamoros, on
Wednesday morning, led to serious measures. The
city was immediately declared under martial laws
| and the Rojos were all ordered under arrest. The
wives of the prisoners were ordered into custody
at the same time. This measure led immediately
| to flight of the devoted Rojos from Matamoros,
and the city of Brownsville is now rapidly filling
up with the fugitives. Saa al M " 81
| reinforcement of the National Guards, under
Don Capistran, 150 strong, left Matamor0s on
Saturday, to pursue the Rojos, but owing to the
state Of the roads, they were forced to return 20

KNOXVILLE UNDER MARTIAL Law w-Ercitenent
in Chattanooga. d.-We conversed yesterday with a
gentleman Just from East Tennessee, and from him
we learn arfew Additional particulars in reference
to affairs in that section. e g. 500 an III s5Fz7T
1t is reported that Parson Brewnlow had left
Knoxville with thirteen guns, and was sympa-
thizer in the Union movement in that quarter.
The town of Knoxville is under martial law. Un
the night of the insurrection last Efiday-it.i5 .i5
said that signal rockets were fired all over the
mountains and about the same time an effort was
made to burn all the bridges. Six of the men en-
gagged in the attempt to burn the Strawberry Pians
bridge eand who afterwards attempted TO murder
the watchman, have been arrested. brought 10
Knoxville, and identified by that gentleman.
The Union men at and around Chattanooga have
threatened to burn the bank, the tannery, aud the
foundry-a large establishment which il engaged
in making powder mills for Augusta, Georgia, and
| Manchester, Tennessee. The threat had created
considerable excitement about. Chattanooga, and
| on Tuesday three companies were made up to
| guard the town every night An old man named
Cleft, at Harrison, Hamilton county, about fifteen
| miles from Chattanooga, was reported to have
| company of five hundred Lincolnites around him
| but it is thought that the report is exaggerated
4 strietwatch is kept upon his movements, and he
| will be prevented from doing harm.
| The Union movement is not thohght to be SO
| formidable as we had supposed. The loyal meI
seem to regard the late insurrectionary moEemen
| as malignant ebulltion which can be easily man
aged and will soon blow over. @s=5Et. -e.s&
l. 1t will be seen that Gen. Carroll's brigade il
moving rapidly to the support of zollicofer, and
no fears need be entertained for his safety.

THE FEDERAL FLEET.-Ihe CnarleSton mercury,

The tidings of the disaster to our 'arms at Port

thentic information with regard to particulars was
not to be had, but such meagre scraps OF lnteli-
gence as were obtainable at eadquarters-embel
lished with an endless variety of rumors and fic-
,ions-were eagerly caught up and clrcula' ed irom
mouth to mouth. There was no disposition to un-
derrate the important advantage which the. Yam
KEGS have gained at their favorite game OF long
taw )" but the hope universally expressed that
an opportunity might soon be given us to ayenge
ourselves tcNh The bayonet. .
The military movements in the city, and, indeed
throughout the State, are just now exceedingly ac.
tive, and fine companies of cavalry, infantry and
artillery, all well equipped and in good condition

proper at this time, to make public any details a:

under Capt. McCord, have, in consequence OF the
INVASION postponed their departure for the seat

permission from the Governor, may be expected tt

From East Tennessee.

A gentleman who has just arrived from Rich
mond advises that the journey from that city to
Memphis is tedious one, owing to the lnterrup.
ton to the trains on the East Tennessee Railroad
caused by the destruction of the bridges. He was
FIVE days making the trip.
Two OF the bridges destroyed were very costly.
and cannot be speedily rebuilt but the railroad
managers are using every effort to keep communl'
cation open by means of ferry boats and temporary
bridges at all the crossings where the passage OF
trains had been obstructed by the incendiares and
the road will be put in order at the earliest prac.
ticabe moment.
Great excitement prevails along the route. The
people were thoroughly aroused, and Hooking INTO
every station, determined to extermlnate the
traitors between Bristol and Chattanooga, where
the principal damage was done.
Cen Clark, of Mississippi, was at Bristol, among
| the detained passengers; and being ADVISED that
| there was force of five hundred Unionists at
| Uniontown, where a bridge had been burned, he
mustered force of about forty, principally return
| ing soldiers and marched against them. A con-
dct took place at night, but the traitors fled early
not knowing Clark force, leaving indications that
| some of them were hurt .--.-
| At Strawberry Plains Bridge the guard was at
tackled by fifteen Of the incendiaries. He. killed
two and wounded several, but they overpoWeree
| and wounded him very severely. For TINS gal
| lantry. a handsome subscription had been maze
up in the neighborhood in his favor. At Knoxville
| particularly much excitement prevails. MARTA
law has been proclaimed, and Parson Brownlos
has left for parts unknown. MEM. Appeal, l4th

While there ere many evidences 10
show In, our citizens are fully awake 10
the great cxigencies which surround them,
and that they are wiling aud fcady 10
make every sacrifice ia support Of the
Government. yet there Is some reason 70
doubt whether ge have AZ yel placed our.
selves 10 such a condition as The times de-
maud. There can be 40 doubt that The
resources Of our people are 70 be taxed in
an extraordinary manner. Those sums
which have heretofore been used in tie
purchase of lgxaries, will he needed to de-
FRAY thc immense expenditures being made
by thc Government. In view Of these
circumstances, we advocate the most rigid
economy in all matters whatsoever. Tie
individual who can during the year reduce
his expenses to the amount Of two hun
bred dollars, and who invests that amount
in Treasury notes, exhibits patriotic dis
position worthy Of praise and imitation.
We fear we are giving too much aiten-
ton and expanding too much money on
Agricultural Fairs, Concerts and the ike,
matters which are All very well in ordi-
nary times, but not in our view exactly in
place al the present time. We hope to
see a gradual exclusion Of Injuries in ey-
cry department Of life. Let broadcloth
and silks give place TO less expensive but
equally useful articles Of clothing. a rig
ID economy Of expenditures at this time,
viii not only allow cur people TO give
n,cse efcetual aid TO the Government but
also be Of great advantage in the moral in
fiuence which it will exert among all clas-
scs.
