swearing In the Zolavos---An
Extraordinary Scene. q

The N. Y. Herald thus reports the ta.
king Of the oath by Wilson's battalion d
Zouayes, TO support the American flag and
10 march through Baltimore:
Al seven O'Clock last evening the aJnion
battalion of Zouares," Col. Wm. Wilson,
held formal muster and roll call at their
headquarters in Tammanny Hall. There
were SCI men of the battalion present.
The occasion was made strikingly impress
sive by the extraordinary proceedings
which were bad The men were ranged
around around the ball three deep, with
Col. Wilson and other offers in the center
of the room. The men had all clad them
selves in grey shirts and pants which had
been provided for their uniform, which is
completed by acommon brown hat, bro
gans and leather belt They carry short
knife about seven inches in length, between
sort Of bowie knife and butcher knife in
shape. Many also have revolvers, of which
it is intended that each shall be armed
with one or two, as well as a slung-shot
and Minnie rifle. All the men being rang
ed against the walls, the Col. with drawn
sabre in hand and the American flag in
the other, stood forth and addressed his
men amidst deafening cheers.
Alter short adjnration to the flag, for
which he declared his devotion, he called
upon all TO kneel and swear with him.
Waving his banner and fourishing his sa-
bre he knelt on one knee. All present
kneeled with him and repeated the oath
which he put to them 10 support the flag,
through blood or death. He said be would
lead tlrem through Baltimore, and they
would march through it or die; at which
all arose with tremendous yell, flung up
their hats aad brandished their glittering
knives amids prolonged and frantic cheers.
He then denounced death TO The Baltimore
traitor secessionists and Plug Uglies, and
said they would leave monument of their
bones in the streets of Baltimore. Amid
yells of "Deaih to the Plug Uglics," he
illustrated with his sword how they should
hcw their way, and said though he should
be the first slain, be had but one thing to
ask, ,..and that is each of bis followers should
secure his man and avenge bis blood
That they would do this he again called on

holding up the flag and the sword, and &C.

CHICAGO, April %.


A gentleman bas just returned 10 this
city from business tour through Alabama
and Mississippi, leaving Mobile on Tuesday
last, reports that hundreds ofmen who had
gone to Pensacola to take Fort Pickens,
are returning home daily, disgusted and
satisfied that il is impossible for the Con-
federate States to capture the Fort. A
large number of troops at Pensacola nre
sick and dying in hospitals from the effects
of fatigue and exposure and hunger. Our
informant reports that the people in Ala
bama and Mississippi are almost crazy with
stcitemenh that mod spirit is rampant
everywhere, and is rendered daily more des-
pesate in some localities by threatened fam
iEe and starvation.
In view of events in ST. Louis, regi-
msnt was sent from Springfield yesterday
to occupy Alton.
A bill for S., 600, 900 loan for war pur-
poses, and another bill TO send 10000 men
into camp TO answer TO the next call of
the Government, are before the Legislature.
Both bills will probably pass TO morrow.

arrived at Frankfort, Kentucky, they were
ordered to show their flag, which they did,
