The force at Fort Pickens consists Of about
100 regulars and Billy Wilson'S New York
Zouayes, who ore nolninally GOO, but really
not worth more than half that. The Zouayes
arc said to be in serious state Of disorganiza-
ton and mutiny. a large number Of the
zouayes hive been sent 10 Tortugas as in
corrigih1e'' subjects, and they behave so badly
there that two howitzers loaded with grape
and canister, arc Kept at the sally port in case
Of disturbance. Tllc Situation on the island at
last accounts was this:
About 4 quarter of mile from the Fort
there is y dcep cntrcnchnlcnt, divided by a
plank road which communicates With the en-
compliment Of Wilson's Zouaves, which is
about mile distant. The day pickets pro-
ceed only about one mile from camp, and those
ut night about four milcs, leaving the Island
OPEN i. any time 10 lEe descent OF the enemy.
Since the last battle, Col. Brown, the Com
of I'LL attack. for the ZouaTcs to leave their
quarters. anu proceed behind the entreneh-
mems. which are strengthened with howiizers
and mortars on all sides, other tlan the one
diaUaetrcally opposite the rear Ct the Fort,
where the guns arc ready to be1ch forth at any
time tllroayh TIC opening on tie rebels, if
they should land. The greater part Of the
1sl:ind is thus to bc 1:lcatc cd, to 1}rin:, the
whole available force to defend the Fort.
The almost serlicircnlar range Of rebel hat
tcric=-cxtcnding from Fort aIcCre,, Fort Bar
ancas 10 the Pensacola Navy Yard, has, it is
sail, led 10 this strategic order, as imperative
IL demanded. In the entire line there are but
one hundred and fifty guns, Of long range,
while the numhvr OF pieces available at Fort
Pickcns and its surroundings arc only sixty,
and the troops to defend them arc only seven
teen 1undrud-whi1c the rebel force opposite
amount to about eleven thousand.
4 few weeks since. Col Brown Was advised Of
pfan OF attack meditated by Gen Bragg 4
synopsis Of it is, that the rebel force should
make landing at APPOINT between the zonaEcs
and the fort. ind thus draw an engagement
with them, while other rebel forces should at
Tempt to land near lii: fort itEelf, and divert
the action Of Coz. Browns troops from assist.
ing the zouayes. The enemy seem to consider
that their most formidable foe are the regu-
lars; and that but for them the Island would
be al easy Prey. It is said that Gen. Bragg
lad dct tcrminel to place large force ut Deer
Point, which commands tile important po-
sition Of the Island for this purpose. Tic in
formation thus received, led to tile order fol
Wilson's Zouaycs 10 concentrate Hear the fort
in case Of an attack. Colonel Brown, though
expressing his confidence In the impreesla
li1ity Of the fort, is anxious TO receive rein

There are ut present in the slip yards on the
East River, twelve or fifteen schooners, Of
from two hundred and fifty to three hundred
and 1i1ty tons each, which arc undergoing
novel modification i'll order TO tit them for
service along the coart- They are strengthened
with additional beams and knees, and have
extra decks on which their armament is work
cd. The peculiar 1eatur Of the change being
effected III them is that they arc to be built up
solid in front, where an enormous mortar,
weighing twenty-five thousand pounds, will
hc mounted. The Tremendous: shock from the
discharge Of thirtcc1l-ineh mortar will re-
quirc tic greatest degree Of tir1nness in 4 ship
to resist it successfully, hence the determine
tion to build these small Vessels solid in front.
No other armament will bc placed on board
these craft, although some have been fitted to
carry four :suns.-N. 2 Commercial Adyerttser.

Treason again,

The Jackson Standard, Ohio State
Journal and Athens Messenger will
denounce the following as Treason:
"ApplicatiOn has been made by
private parties Of the Eastern States
to Gov. Curtin to permit bodies of
armed free blacks to pass through
Pennsylvania. They met with un'
conditional refusal, and great salts
faction is expressed here at the Gov.
ernor's decision. Their applications
were to arouse the slaves Of the
Southern States to rebellion"
Tie Colonel Of the last Massachu-
setts Regiment that passed through
Baltimore: caught three slaves that
had escaped after them, and sent them
home to their masters, informing the
owners that they did not march into
Maryland to help slaves off, but il
there was an insurrection to take
place, his Regiment, to man, would
volunteer to suppress it. Capt. Fells
Of Rising Sun, Ind, telegraphed to
the authorities Of Owen and Gallatin
counties, KY, that bis men would
march Immediately to quell an insur'
rection there, if it was required. The
above shows to the Union men Of the
South that we don't want their Con
stitutionsl rights disturbed, in regard
to slave property. In fact our army
10 the proportion of ten to one, will
turn out to assist to quell any insur.
rection, North or South. But after
the above news, we expect to hear Q
howl from old Giddiugs, and a de-
ciSion from IBrinkerhOff that the actI
on the part of our soldiers is uncon
stitutional, and the editors above
named will be in sackcloth anG ashes
over it.

ST.. LOUIS, Sat-, May II.

In the midst of an excitement the
parallel of which bas never been ex-
perien cad in St. Louis, we shall ell.
deavor TO speak calmly of the events
of yesterday, leaving to another occa-
casion, when the Judgment can act
somewhat coo(ly, to comment more
at large upon the lamentable proceed.
iugS. We have had a strong hope
that however disastrous the present
unnatural and appalling conflict in
our political affairs might be to other
localities, the State Of Missouri and the
city Of st. Louis would be spared the
horrors ofparticipation in it.
st. Louis has been loyal to the Un.
ion. Ia a State Convention, meeting
after the Inauguration of President
Lincoln, not a single vote was cast for
secession. Missouri is in the Union,
and has taken no steps TO 60 out Of it.
In view of these facts we regard it as
unfortunate, to say the least, that cur
soil should have been made the thea.
ter of such scenes as were enacted yes
teday. But Of this we shall speak at
another day.
1t is known to our readers that the
troops organized under the militia
laws OF this State were some days
since ordered by their Coinmander.in.
chief, the Governor, to 60 into en-.
campment in their several districts
for the term Of six days. The same
thus organized were called camps o.
instruction, and, as was stated in the
general orders, were to attain a great.
er degree Of proficiency in military
drill. Numbers of the militia whi
encamped on last Monday at Lin
delrs Grove, in the suburbs OF thI
city, have beer for years members o
the several companies in which on
citizens have been want to feel so mucl
pride. Many Of them have respond
ed at their country's call, and perform
ed noble service on the field Of battle
Only last winter hundreds of thes'
volunteers were seen trudging wear,
miles for the protection of our South
western border against a band Of law
less marauders, meeting many jesr
) as compensation for all their sacrifices
For ourselves. we have been accus
toned to look upon the young mel
forming the St. Louis military as al
honor to the city, to the State and t
the country. This sentiment we hav
reason to believe, has been shared b,
multitudes Of our population, as testi
