marriage will rob his son. He accidentally learns by
letter that Hortense has loved another, but cannot

THE SEIZURE OF GOVERNMENT PROPERTY
IN FLORIDA.

We have the following items of news from our
Pensacola correspondent, under date Of the 18th;
"Ibasen to notify you thatthe Pensacola Navy Yard
Is no longer in the possession Of Uncle SAM The arl
lery officer at Fort Barrancas, who had Company un-
der his command, and Commodore Armstrong OF the
Yard yesterday received intima;ion that the secession
lists wanted 10 drive the United States forces away from
here. and this morning the was confirmed. Over
one hundred men, apparently well drilled and armed
demanded peaceable surrender of the posts, which,
after some consultation was given. The marines, Of
whom we have about 43, anxious for resistance,
and believe Capt. Watson was also, but it seems
Commodore Armstrong opposed it. The Government
troops available had the artillery and the few United
States sailors here been concentrated would have been
sufficient to keep the rebels at bay were such course
desirable. As it is there was nothing worth talking
of to fight for. There sufficient stores and provi-
sons to last the capors for while but the storeshp
Supply fortunately took large cargo away, winch
might have been seized. Florida may be put down as
the first seeding State TO seize man'owar. The u.
s. steamer Fulton is in the hands Of the WARRIORS and
wish them 10Y with her. The Crusader had left and
the Wyandotte was also, believe, out OF harms way.
II would take more time and cost money 10 reit
the Fulton whose miraculous escape from destruction
off the coast will be remembered by ALL than she would
be worth The marines, sailors and artillery soldiers
here have teegraphed for Instructions have reason
to know that they viii all go to Washington.
4' Commodore Armstrong ought 10 be Union man.
He was born in Kentucky appointed from Mississippi,
and is citizen of Massachusetts. Watson is Colum-
bian So the end of this affair is that Pensacola and
Barancas are gone and that the South has stolen the
frst-born of its Navy"
