Seizure of the Cahawba by Capt. ShIvers,
of the CaddO Rifles.

Seizure oil the CahaWDa DY CaPIs SRlFersp
of the CaddO Rifles.
This morning, about half past one O'Clock, we
witnessed the taking of the second marine pri e
steamship now in our river, namely, the fine steam
er Cahawba. This was done in a very quiet and
gentlemanly manner by the gallant Capt Shivers OF
the Caddo Rifles.
Arranging his plans, and getting four of his pick
ed men and taking them armed in cabs, Capt Shiv>
ers proceeded TO the foot of St. Joseph street. here
the Cahawba is lying Arriving there the men
jumped out of the cabs, formed in line, and Capt.
Shivers, accompanied by Judge Price, boarded the
the steamer The deck watch asked what was
wanted Captain Shivers replied that he wanted to
see the officer in command of the Cahaw5a. The
watchman proceeded to the first mates room, where
he was sleeping, and announced the presence of a
military looking gentleman on board, who wanted
to see him (the mate.)
The mate came on DECK and Capt. Shivers politely
told him to surrender the ship hist CaptS s)author
ty The mate stated that the captain of the Cahawba
was not on board, and therefore he 1.-THE mattel had
nothing to say. Capt Shivers then ordered his men
on board put guard fore and att, and elsewhere,
and when we left this morning at two o'clock, all
on board was quotas in fact everything was from
the beginning. The Cahawba being freighted,
had all its passengers engaged, and was to have
cleared for the North at early hour this morn

PREPARATION TO BLOW UP THE

Correspondence Ct the Petersburg Express
NORFOLK, April "a, 1S6I.-You were informed
last night by telegraph of the preparations being
made by the Northern barbarians for the destruc-
ton of Fortress Monroe There can be no doubt
of the truth of the information furnished if human
testimony can be credited. Eye witnesses-reliable
gentlemen, reported the facts as they saw them.
All the houses outside the fort have been eyacu-
ated and several of the families that occupied them
are now in the city. Servants owned here and hired
at the fort have been returned to their owners
without word of explanation. These people and
others report that for two days the troops have
have been kept busy breaking small arms, spikinQ
cannon. and otherwise destroying property. Also
that several excavations have been made into the
walls of the fort, evidently with the intention OF
blowing it up.
One of the five large steamers that went up the
bay yesterday with troops touched at Old Point
and took on board one thousand men. Cel DeRussy
the commandant, went on her. When taking leave
of his wife and other ladies, he was heard to say
that they would all be together again in q few
days. and that "there would be no fighting"
From these facts it would appear to be the policy
of the Lincoln goverument-to destroy and abandon
all the Notifications in Its possession in the Southern
States, and to concentrate the whole power at it:
disposal for the defence of Washington.

The North United

In the hey-day of our prosperity-so long as we
were willing to empty our bags of gold-the pro-
ducts of our rice and cotton and sugar and tobacco
and wheat and corn fields into their laps; long as
we were content to minister to the pampered pride
of wealth and submit humbly to the lashings of a
fanatcal press to the defamation of our good name
throughout the world by those to whom we have
paid tribute, to the amount of millions upon mil
lions. we had So-called friends at the North. Now,
where are they? A few here and there we do not
doubt But in the storm of public fury their voices
are hushed or unheard.
Democrats, and Wings, all, all are alike silent, CT
minging their voices in the harsh, helish cry for
Southern blood. DOUGLAS, FILLMORE, PIERCE,
DICKINSON all have turned their backs upon US,
although each and all have time and again
declared that the policy of the Black Republican
party would driUe us to resistance, if indeed we
were not ourselves prepared to be made slaves
How patiently Tennessee and the border States
have waited for sign of relenting on the part
of the Administration; how anXiously they have
conned over the gvings forth of Mr.. LINCOLN; how
charitaby they have been disposed to construe ev-
cry word and deed in hopes to find some honorable
pretext for waiting the voice Of the people once
more before making the final plunge, all men know
but too well. Our forbearance has only embold-
ened our enemies to strike at once, what they vain
" hoped would be the final blow. We are not left
the appeal which some had hoped to make-thc
ballst-box 1t is the sword.
Well, the alternative is indeed painful one,
but with all the seeming odds against US, we ac-
cent it, Heaven grant us United South and we do
not fear the result. That we shall suffer the ca
lamiies. always to greater less Oxtent incident
TO war must be expected. But if we will
strike with one arm and one purpose we shall yet
bring our naughty foe to confess that the South is
born to higher destiny than that of conquered
nroyipce. dependent upon the will and pleasure of
a uurse-proud, manufacturing fanatical aristocra-
cv Give us but a united South, and we fear no
danger.
