BALTIMORE, May %, 1861.
Last evening information wac lodged with the Dis
trict Attorney of the shipment Of cont aband goods to
the South ga Harpers Ferry in boxes bearing GER
tain mark, sDd in bundles wiapred up in newspapers,
carried under the arms Of pastenger The informant,
being unwilling TO expose linsef TO persecution by
formal notice which it to was unnecessarily
required of him by the District Attorney in the present
state of uings-wtbdrew the case, srd sent word TO
Col Mcconnell Of tie Mary land regiment Of regulars,
who directed the capture Of the whole lot OF goods
at the Relay House, and they were found TO be
cotton duckng fr tents. Several bundles wrapped ID
newspapers, in the possession OF passengers, were
seized and found TO contain Indiarubber blankets and
cares There is prompti,ude about Colonel McC
nels movements that does tie heart of every loyal
man good. Haegling and scIliug about legal forms
in present emergencies arc little less than play ing into
the bands Of the rebels.
This morning fractions Of the New-York Irish Resi
ment anu Other commands at Washington, numbering
4C0 in all, passed through this city, taking the bloody
ground Of Pratt street their route. They threw out
two companies of armed lankers, and the st were
driven through in The mob Of the 18th Of April,
and their gentlemen abetios, were among tie missing.
Pratt street ia ted the footsteps of Freedom
ence more but the blood of the murdered is yet un-
atored.
The news spread through the city at an early hour,
that he NewYoIk Hghlanders in full costume, were
arrive at the Prrsdentstreet depot 1T clock to-
day. An immen,e crowd OF anxious people assembled,
but they what they did not expect the arrival aud
debarcstioD OF the LIST and I'd Ohio Regiments. Per-
feet order prevailed every side without the inter
venon of the police. In very brief time, The whole
column, with TWO bandr of music were in marching
or en- and passing Exeter and down Loub rd rtrees,
along Tie payements of which thousands upon thou
sands Were ranged TO witness the inspifitng scene.
The columns, in sections OF Fix abreast, reached the
Camden depot without single contre,emps, or lima
tured exhibition that was reported. With here and
thsre enthusiastic exception, respectful silence
was observed by the spectators AT the corner OF
South aud Lombard Streets one poor fellow fell under
the great of the sun, but lie was instantly picked
up by his loyal men, tenderly cared for, aud put in
gentlemans carriage which drove up rapidly with him
10 the depot, where be joined his command in tme
The mar ching of these two regiments through Bat-
more will doubtless long be remembered by the brave
fellows, for though 10 eeng WIS betrayed yet the
reception must have been freezing 10 their feel
ings. Ii 10 to mine, though the party waswilh
took especial OCCASION To manifest ~arm-spoken
welcome 10 the ranks they severaly passed which

While write, 5 p. M. the world and his wife are
out, hooking for the arrival and transit Of the New
York Hishanders, who are expected some lime during
the afternoon. As shall not be able 10 be present
have commissioned friend report me the particu
lars should they pass this afternoon. The petty hos
tilty displayed toward this gallant regiment by certain
Boston newspapers, is evidence Of meanness which
felowctizens of Scotch birth may treat with tie
contempt deserves. The Scotch people Baltimore
generally loyal and they resent the conduct Of those
Boston papers in no small degree.
The bitterness Of the Baltimore rebels is hourly on
the increase 1t threatens be the death Of the whole
aristOcratic gang men, women and children. Indeed
should be surprised TO hear that The disease under
which they abong, bas taken Oh the form Of
hydropbobia. One woman mother too, and an orna-
ment ia high life in other days. wbilo conversiug with
a quiet lady.iike Union woman, yesterday, Wa sud
denly seized with frenzy, and, jumping up from her
chair paraded up and down the room with the fercest
steps, saving the air the while with oustrecl ed arm
and uttering maedictiors ike the following: For my
part, wish JEFF. Dayis's soldiers would get to Bsi.
more and with drawn swords, cut the hearts out of
every Union man, woman and child and ln:.he mince
meat of tbem!" This 10 but O sample of the bitter
erocity that pervades the ranks Of the rebels DO not
hear of any increase in numbers but the contrary
OF several of them VINO have been restored to their
reason.
II Gen. Butler had proclaimed martial law, when
he was about it, all this btterness would have been
neurazed, and fear would have followed. The unwise
release of Ross Winans and J. Thompson Mason, and
the failure to dspace the Police Commissioners aud
their Notwithstanding Marshal, and to make examples
Of these rebels and Others engaged in the affair OF the
18th Of April have only served to maiden The enemies
Of the Republic in onr midst. tell Gen. Cadwaader
that the ssty for putting Baltimore under martial
law until be get the existing Police authorities
out Of the way, is imperative, at this moment as IL
ever was and it will be well if be s not driven by the
force Of circumstances 10 ths conclusion. There is no
peace for Baltimore, no safety, until lie wipes out the
enemies of the Federal authority sutsstng in the
perons of our Police Commissioners and their Mseha.
