From New Orleans.

We have recently had a conversation
with gentleman who has beer two and
half years q resident of New Orleans. He
has but just left that city, and says he had
but little difficulty in traye'ing North
being an old sea captain he is well able In
apprehend the character of the people
their sentiments and their resources. He
tells us that we have no idea of the wild
ness of the passion to drink Northern
blood with the sons of the planters, and of
the better classes, and that they are used
to arms, and will fight with great skill and
bravery. He says that they are determined
IN the step which they have taken, and will
carry it through if they can. He saws
that going up and down on the boats upon
the Mississippi, he has seen and heard taIl
most OF the leading characters of the re-
bellion, Davis among the rest. He heard
Davis make this remark, while in CONVEX
sation upon political topics: II have no
d1ubt that the North can furnish five mon
to our one. and that she can whip US, but
she cannot conquer u.s."
The captain also stated that their nr;vs.
teers were doing good business that in
new orleans they had about dozen tug
boats. OF superior kind, fitted ont for nrio
vateers, and well armed. One was fitted
out, and IN the first twenty>four hours can.
tured about s350,000 wol til of property
When he left there had been no blockade :.
the tugs would remain in until thew had
heard OF vessel, then ron out and take
her. 1t is his opinion it will take at least
:our vessels of war to blockade effectually
the mouths of the Mississippi. He Gays
that things generally are not so bad there
as reported in the North. He has been ap.
pointed Sailing Captain in the Blockading
Squadron. and is going to start Immediately
TOR Fort Pickens. and hopes there to have
an opportunity to do his duty.
These statements are entitled to credit
from the position and intelligence of the
gentleman making thsm.-Boston Post

Tribute of Respect.

The Fox River Baptist Association was
in session in this city when the mournful
news of the death of Senator Douglas was
received, and Immediately passed the fol-
lowing resolution, and out of respect to the
ilustrious deceased, adjourned over till the
the next day:
Resolced, That, in common with the
millions Of our fellow citizens in the state
and country. we mourn, to day, the death
of the Hon. Stephen A. Douglas one who
was great and distinguished in all the va
ried relations he sustained to society; and
that we are profoundly impressed with the
noble motives, the enlightened and gener-
Gus views which originally prompted him
to donate to us the tie of the University of
Chicago, valued at $50 900, and which have
characterized all his plans and counsels
respecting it; and that We hereby offer our
sincere coincidence to his family in this, to
them, most appalling bereavement.

The Union Democrat (Anna, Union
County, of the 4th inst, says:
We learn that Hon. james D. Pulley.
Representative from Williamson and John

Carbondale. on charge of treason. From
Carbondale, he was taken to the encamp-
meat at Muddy Bridge, where he was de.
tanned until Monday morning, and taken
from thence 10 Cairo, with several wit
nesses who were summoned to appear
against him. We learn that on his arrival
at Cairo, Mr. Pulley was offered his liberty
on condition that he would take the oath of
