Col. Cochrane delivered;an address to his
regiment yesterday, in the presence of Sec
rotary Cameron and other distinguished gen
tlemen. He said I'VE should use every means
in our power to subdue the rebellion. We
should take their cotton and sell or burn it
as might be best and seize their arms and
munitions of war. Confscate their proper
ty, and, when necessary, take their lives
And as their slaves were used as an element
Of strength against US, we should not hesi-
tate to take them, and, if necessary, to place
arms in their hands that they might assist
in establishing the rights Of common hu.
mainly" This sentiment was cheered by
the soldiers with enthusiasm. At the close
Of the address the regiment loudly called for
Secretary Cameron who stepped forward and
made brief speech which was received with
shouts of applause.

The Town CLocK.-1ae !, 3n Clock,
seems of late to have "a sorf # suspicion
that in th> Sc lays when the tia es are out
of joint it will not do to keep time in the
fashion of slang syne." In consequence it
has made all sorts of alterations within the
past few days. Whether it has caught the
habit from the streets below, we know not,
but the playful exaggerations and perver
sons, which are daily practised in the nun.
dane regions below seemed to echo above,
when the old clock instead of telling enc,
strikes eight, and when in truthful times it
struck eight--now strikes three. The Reg
ulator has put the clock in good order, for
the present, but we have little hope of a
permanent reformation so long as the people
below set it such a bad example-evil COM
munication corrupt good manners. Let the
practice be universally adopted in Alexan
dria-if no where else on the continent, OF
telling the truth, and we have no doubt the
clock will resume its old regularity, and we
shall hear it no more greet the rising sun
with the sonorous clangor of noontide.

Gen. Sherman has issued Proclamation
to the people of South Carolina, exhorting
them to return to their allegiance to the fed
eral government and setting forth what he
regards as the suicidal course Of the State.
He says his forces have landed with no in
tention of interfering with any Of the social
and local institutions, beyond whatduty may
render unavoidable; but, he concludes, "If,
in the performance of this duty, other minor
but important obligations should be in any
way neglected, it must be attributed to the
necessities of the ease, because rights de-
pendent on the laws of a State must be ne
cessarily subordinate to military exigencies
created by insurrection and rebellion"

The result of the Naval Expedition, thus
far, gives the highest satisfaction atthe North,
and all concerned receive unbounded enco-
miums. The force of the Confederates at
the batteries captured, is said to have been
from three to four thousand men,. Their loss
during the engagement is supposed to amount
in killed and wounded to two hundred. 1t
was not believed that Gen. Sherman would
cross over to the mainland at present-his
intention being to improve the defences of
his position before making any forward
movement. In all probability he will remain
On the island until the arrival of reinforce
ments, which, the New York papers state,
are already on their way to join him.
