RESIGNATION OF COMMODORE MAURY.-The
resignation of such an officer as Maury, says
the Richmond Dispatch, will carry moral
weight in favor of the Southern cause through
out the civilized world. There is no Ameri-
can as widely known in Europe. Wherever
science has shed ray OF light on the globe
there the name of Maury is as familiar as
household word. Kings and Courts. philoso-
pliers and statesmen, have WED with each
other in shOWering honors upon his head
The extraordinary and benefcent labors of
Maury, for the commerce OF the world have
associated his name in the minds of mankind
with all that is truly great and good. The
adhesion of such a man to the Southern cause
will cause men abroad to reflect, and will ex-
ert infinitely more influence than would that
of Scott. Europe is crowded with military
men, far more eminent than Scott, who is
scarcely known outside the limits of our own
country, and even then only as a soldier; but
wherever the sea rolls a wave. Maury is
known, and revereneed as great light, and
a benefactor of his race

g We are satisfied the Directory of the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad have no
disposition To interfere with, or throw obsta-
cles in the way OF, the Southern trade of the
city.
Their notice of yesterday morning was
made necessary by the accumulation of
feights in their depot here, which is caused
by the interference with river transportation
at Cairo and elsewhere changing the course
of shipments for the South and Southwest.
The aggregate shipments from Louisville
have not been greater than usual, but nearly
all of the provisions and other goods that in
ordinary times go by river, now find a safer,
though more expensive. transporiation BY
railroad. This explanation, We hope, viii

WHAT Lincoln SAYs.-The Washington
correspondent of the Cincinnati CoHsnasTc ial
says
On Friday afternoon the Kansas company
called in a body at the White House TO take
leave of the President. Col Vaughn, of
Leayenworth, delivered short speech, the
burden of which was that the loyal people of
the North expected the Government to crush
ont the Southern rebellion at all hazards.
The President in his reply said ''The last
hope of peace may not have passed away,
hat If have to choose between the mainte-
nance of the Union ofIhese States, of the
authority of the Government and OF the lib
critics of this nation on the one hand, and
the shedding of fraiernal blood on the other.

Reported Intention to Destroy Fort
ress Monroe.

We find the following IN the petersburg
Erprsss, dated Norfolk, April oath:
All the houses outside the fort have been
evacuated. and several of the families that
occupied them are now in this city Servants
owned here and hired at the fort have been
returned to their owners without a word of
explanation. These people and others report
that for two days the troops have been kept
busy breaking small arms, spiking cannon,
and otherwise destroying property. Also,
that several excav atiOns have been made into
the walls of the fort, evidently with the in-
tention of blowing it up
One of the five large steamers that went
ND the bay yesterday with troops, touched
at Old Point, and took on board one thousand
men. Col De Russy, the commandant, went
on her. When taking leave of his wife and
other ladies, he was heard to say that they
swouid all be together again in few days"
and that .sthere would be no fighting"
From these facts it would appear to be the
poIicy of the Lincoln government to destroy
and abandon all the Notifications in its pos
session in the Southern States. and to con-
centrate the whole power at its disposal for
the defence of Washington. This course
being adopted and Lincoln's proposal 10 sus-
mend hostiliies for sixty days being acceded
to. it may reasonably be inferred that, with
the destruction of Fortress Monroe, this sim
gular and bloodless war will terminate. The
Northern Congress meeting early In July will
receive commissioners from the Confederate
States. then terms of recognition and separa
tion will be proposed and most probably ac-
cepted.

Mark WiltOn's Incentive.
A LOVE STORY AND SOMETHING MORE.

Marry Clara Preston ?" cried Mr. Jo-
than Wilton, with elevated eyebrows and
an astonished look generally.
"Yes, sir" replied his son. =" | wish to
make Clara Preston my wife,"
why, Mark Wilton, you are crazy.
Just look at yourself as you are. Take q
careful look if you please. Here you stand
three-and-twenty years OF age, and the only
child l have living. Think OF the money l
have expended upon your education. Thou
sands of dollars, sir, thousands OF dollars,
and see what efforts have made to give
you an honorable start in the world. L our
legal education has been received under the
best of masters, you have been admitted to
the bar under the most fattering auspices,
and MIR. Mathrop assures me that you have
the stuff in you to make one OF the first
lawyers in the State. And, sir, you know
that your father has the wealth with which
to back you up. l could place half mil>
lion dollars to your credit this very day, if l
were so minded. But, sir, what do you
imagine will become OF you if you take your
first important step in life thus? will Sc
lect wife for you sir! !"
"But, my father, l have pledged my faith
to Clara Preston, and cannot break it,
She is all that seek for in wife. She is
true and virtuous, amiable and intelligent,
and, moreover, she loves me devotedly."
"Loves your fathers money" interrupt
ed the old man, with scornful curl of the
lip.
Mark Wilton started up from his chair,
and the deep flush OF his face told how
deeply he felt the cut. But he was in the
presence of an aged father, and he controlled
himself as we'll as he could.
Don't provoke me-" he said, bis lips
almost closed.
Hoity-toity provoke, indeed You
should have thought OF that before you
approached me with any such a scheme in
your mad brain. l tell you my son will
find wife for you myself"
d" There is no need, SIR" stoutly persisted
the youth, =" l have found one already. And
now, sir, will you tell me why you object to
Clara Preston :"
Simply because she is not what society
judges should be your wife, She is nobody |!
Who are her parents?
"She has none"

England division, was agreeably filled on
Wednesday. The mammoth steamer Con-
stitution, the largest vessel ever seen In
Boston harbor, took on board the 26th
Massachusetts and 9th Connecticut, and
moving thence to Portland, received the
18th Maine, making the complement for her
first voyage to Port Royal. The other
5000 will be ready for the return trip of
the steamer.

Beside stricken field stood;
On the torn turf, on grass and wood
Hung heavily the dew of blood.
Still in their fresh mounds lay the slain,
But all the air was quick with pain
And gusty sighs and fearful rain.
Two angels, each with dropping head
And folded wings and noiseless tread,
Watched by that valley of the dead.
The one, with forehead sanity bland
And lips of blessing, not command,
Leaned, weeping, on her olive wand.
The others brows were SCARED and knit,
His restless eyes were watch.fres lit,
His hands for battle.gauntlets tit.
"How long v'--I knew the voice of Peace
- Is there no respite ?-no release p
When shall the hopeless quarrel cease?
sOh Lord. how long !--One human soul
Is more than any parchment scroll
Or any flag the winds unrOll.
What price was Ellsworth, yonng and
brave?
How weigh the gift that Lyon gave?
Or count the cost of WinthrOp's grave!
" Oh brother if thine eye can see.

One guards through love his CHASTITY throne,
And one through fear to reverence grewn.
