The Reason Why Fort Pickens was not
Attacked.

Major Chase, the commander of the
State troops at Pensacola, passed through
Columbus, Ga, on the 4th inst, en- route
to Tallahassee, to have coference with
Gov. Perry, of Florida. The Columbus
Times says:
la b,ief conversation with him we
learned that it is the policy Of our men
to AVOID a conflict with the Federal
troops until after the 4th Of March. The
reasons for which course were that SO
strongly fortified place as Pickens
ought not to be stormed, but captured
by bombardment or serge; and time was
necessary to complete prepa' ations for
a successful attack. That a victory
would doubtless follow desperate
charge upon the fort with the loss Of
seventy-fve out Of one hundred men,
but it was question of doubtful expe-
diency, not to say display OF bad gen.
cralship, to win battle at 60 costly a
sacrifice. That one hundred and ten
men were in the fort, sufficient 10 man.
age the guns. The howitzers on the
angles were capable Of being fired at the
rate OF ten shots to the minute, which
would do terrible slaughter. That the
fort could be taken in the right way and
the hight time. That q demand would
be made by the commissioners sent to
Washington bv the Southern Congress,
and on failure of its acceptance prepare
tlons for an attack would begin. The
arrival OF the Brooklyn with its few
men was not matter Of much conse-
quence. Major Chass's opinion was that
Lieut.. Slemmer, in command of the Fed
eral troops, would defend the fort.
During Major Chase's absence, Colonel
Iennent Lomax has command at Pensa-
cola.

HESaY Dow, lad of sixteen years
OF age, has been sentenced by Judge
Vredenberg, Of Aicdlesex county, N. j.,
to be executed on the 4,h Of April for
murder. The Fredonian says it Vas q
solemn scene-the audience being deep

painful duty. The boy, however, pre-
served his stolid indifference throughout.
The counsel for the prisoner intend to
apply to the Court Of Pardons for .
communication of sentence from hanging
to imprisonment in the State Prison for

Norlh Ohio Conference.

This body closed its labors, in Millersburg on
Monday evening last. There were in attend-
ance upwards of one hundred and fifty Minis
tiers, fine, intelligent looking men. Their pro-
ceedings, were characterized by harmony and
good feeling throughout, and listened to daily
by as many of our citizens as could find sitting
or standing room in the Church. A list of the
appointments for the coming year will be found
in another column.
The Ministers during their stay IN Millers-
burg made their homes with its citizens, and
the kindest and best of feeling resulted from
this short acquaintance with each other.
The following resolution was passed at the
close of their labors -
RESOLVED, That the thanks of the N. o. A.
Conference are hereby expressed to the Church
in Millersburg, for their kind invitation to hold
its annual session with them-to the people for
their cordial hospitality in receiving us to their
homes-to the Pastors, of the various Churches,
for extending to us christian courtesy in the use
of their pulpits during the sabbath, and to those
R. Roads which generously return free of charge
the ministers who paid full fair upon their COM :
ing to attend the meeting of the Body.

ATTENTION CoMPANY.-We are requested to
give notice to those that have enlisted in Lieut..
SrANGLER's Company, that they meet in Mil
lersburg on Saturday next. with a view of ma
king arrangements to march to Camp Dennison
Immediately.
An opportunity is offered to this Company to
attach itself to a Cavalry Regiment, if they pre-
fer 10 do SO. The Cavalry Regiment is the
same one that the Millersburg Band intend
joining.
Holmes county is behind her sister counties
in responding to the call for troops. She can
not be said TO have a single Company in III,
field just now, whilst others with no larger pop
ulation, have three to four. We know Captain
DRAKE's Company is claimed to be Holme'
county one, but not over one-fourth of the mel
in it, probably, were citizens of cur count.

sB The Cincinnati Enqairer is disposed to
rejoice over the doings of the '.Union Conven-
ton at Columbus. 1t has made the wonder
full discovery. that that Convention "repudiated
entirely Abolitionists and Abolitionism," and
that mot one of their nominees, from TOP TO
ToRRENcE, is tainted with the black heresy. -
And in the fullness of its soul, it gives the fu-
sionists "credit" for this remarkable advance.
1t is true that the Union Convention repudi-
ated AboliiiCnism, and all other ism. 1t had
no business with them. lis business was &c

was fulfilled. But its platform and its candi-
dates are the strongest condemnation possible
of '.the Democratic policy" as developed in the

In consequence of the inability of DAVE Ton
being present at the meeting advertised for him,
to be held, in Millersburg, on Saturday next,
the I4th inst, it has been postponed to such time
as he can positively be with us. Due notice will
be given.

all that can, are invited to come.

THE WAR NEWS.-There is none of any
Importance. One day the public is startled
with the intelligence that the "seceshers" are
just about TO march upon Washington. The
next days news says they are going to do no
such thing. So we go. There is is a large ar

suppose. In Missouri they are getting ready
on a large scale to drive the invaders out of the
State. Fremont and Mcclellan will show their
hand pretty soon and we hope and believe will

out for those in the North. They are breeding
a scab on their own noses as they will find out

Prentice Challenged to n Dncl.


The Louisville Journal of Sept 4th has
spicy correspondence between Prentice
and one Roger w. Hanson. The latter
felt aggrieved at an article in the Journal,
and challenged Prentice to duel. Prem
tice responded as follows
LOUISVILLE, Sept. 8.
ROGER w. HANSON: Sir: Yours of
the I'd inst. is received. You sought "re-
dress" for the very articles you complain
ofby publishing a scurrilous pamphlet, and
if you "demaDd" any more "redress," you
may get it in the same way, or any other
way you can. shall not appoint time
and place" for meetings, for l wouldn't go
two steps to meet or avoid you. As for
killing you, think that have done that
effectually already, and don't care to
waste powder and lead upon carcass
They can be put TO better use in these re-
bellions times.
Respectfully, GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
Prentice states in the Journal that Han
son, in the pamphlet alluded to, proposed
that they should meet Somewhere outside
of Jefferson county aud either ngnt u ost,
quarrel it out, or drink it out. And Prem
tice adds:
If we were to meet him, he would, rs
we said in our remarks upon his pamphlet,
magage to throw some difficulty in the way
of everv other mode of settlement except
drinking it out"
Now We boldly say that we will eneoan-
ter our fat foe in no such duel. Moreover
he is guilty of foul play. Gentlemen, when
a duel is pending between them, esteem il
a point of honor to abstain entirely from
practicing with the weapons they expectto
use. But Roger, setting all the laws Of
chivalry at nought, is practicing with bot
ties and tumblers from morning till nighs
every day-and giving himselfdo prac-
tice on Sunday. We should be justified
in posting him for his conduct. 1t is un-
gentlemanly. It is uumanly. 1t is cow
ardly. Roger should be ruled at once out
of the honorable fraternity Of duelists.-
We invoke them to call a meeting and ex-
pei him. aen
