GEN. 'BnAoa IN COMMAND AT PESsAcnIA.-The
annexed information is from the Montgomery
correspondence of the Charleston Eyeniny
News;
Gen. Bragg received orders, yesterday, to
repair to Pensacola. Lieut.. r. c. Wood, a ne
Pnew OF the President and Aid.de.camp to the
aenefal. left this morning. Cap. Alpheus Ba-
Aer, OF the Eufaula Riflues, who was ordered
on ABOUT two weeks ago, arrived yesterday,
ons returns Tomorrow. His coming accounts
for Gen. BIS order; matters are 10 q very bad
condition; there are but four or five hundred
troops in and around Pensacola, force totally
unable to resist an attack should Lieut.. Stem
mer deemtht to make one. He has over 300
soldiers. besides being well provided with
stores, arms. DC. and if Trumbulrs speech in
the Senate is an index Of Lncoln's pnlicy. i,
is more than within the range Of the probable
that an attempt will be made to rctnke the
forts seized by Florida. Some uneasiness is felt
whether groundles or not, is of no consequence
as the administration will immediately collect
large force at Pensacola able both to resist
attack nnd to capture Fort Picke ns, if the Rail
Splitter does surrender it.

RICHMOND, March 1.-THE excitement here

Gen. Thomas II. Bradley.

For the full particulars of the recent COW ardly aud contemptibIe conduct of this man, we refer 10 tie letter of our cores pondent Cor in lo-days paper. Not content with disgracing himself be would ii Il were possible, draw the whole regi- nent into the vortex. Bradley was the pet of class of men who were determn- ed that he should enjoy the sweets Of office and military honor with them. IL IS time they selected few good men 10 fill the positions assigned them. While Gen Pierce, who IS gallant gentleman, and soldier, was selected for tbe Western dl- vision, Bradley, who las proved himself drunkard, coward, and incompetent n every respect, was selected for the Eas- lern division. The gallant Col. Cleburne and his regiment have been disgraccd by this old granny, aud the Military Board should immediately remove him and make room for and promote Col. CLEBuRNE 10 his place. Better maler,al cannot bv found in tic South than the men compo- sing this regiment. They are high toned gentlemen, and each one ol .hem had rather have died on the grornd than 10 have left their position. But read the let ter of our spondent, the truth of which. we are ready to voueh for. We have olh- CT private letters which fully justify all that is said in reference to this man Brad- Icy. It has been truly said, that,
 III those whose hearts are loose and low,
 Start if they hear but the tattoo;
 And mighty physical their fear is;
 Tor, soon as noise of combat near is,
 Their hearts descending to their brooches,
 Must give their stomachs cruel twitches7
 We learn that Bradley has gone in hot haste 10 Liule Rock to lay his grievances befdre the Military Board. That body VIC trust lgaH do htns justice

To ALL INrrRrsrED.-We frequently receive letters containing subscribers names, some to our WEEKLY and others b our SEMf-WEEKLY, without the cash accompanying them.

WHAT THE CANADIANS SAY OF OUR TRouBLEs.- Montreal Pilot, of April 27th, says:
 We much fear that President Lincoln is about 10 provel that he Is not the fl man for the presen. crisis. His very procama- lions seem obe written by one who has lost his head; the language being so sIov- euIy as to make it difficult to arrive at his real meaning, though this may perhaps be claimed as part of the Machiavelan wisdom which his supporters attribute to him and his cabinet. It is to be hoped for their own sake, that the North will not thinkof blockading Charleston and the other ports of the South, or rather de- claring them to be in a state of blockade, for they have not sufficient force for the former. England and France have over six millions of human beings depending for their subsistence on the supply of col ton, and they cannot and will not suffer so many oftheir subjects to starve, howev- CT unwilling they may be to interfere- Before long they will be compelled to obey that powef-necessity-which commands gods and men.

AN Arr REpLy.-On Monday even ing last, when our streets were crowded with soldiery, and nsprting martial mn. sic stirred all hearts, lady chanced p pass along one of tbe principal lhorOugh' fares, when a volunteer, who probably felt the "one touch of nature which makes the whole world kin,' very politely sauted her by raising bis hat, and remarking: '" Farewell, my good lady; I'm going oil to fight for you;' to which she instantly and very composedy replied, And ID. tend remaining here to pray for you, sir. There was something in lhis reply-so womanly-that there was a general rals' ing of hats among the group, who doubt less felt that warm and truly generous heart beat in the bosom of the fair crea' ture who had pledged herselfto to invoke the bencdction of Heaven upon them.- | Montgomery Advertiser.

 the other boat. but Bradley would nol a.. init it, telling hIm that by doing this tbm would be imminent daoger of losing |, cannon, showing plainly that he ca,.t more for the guas than he dIi fofihp i;e.. of bis men. Bnt this. however. IS o,ay keeping with bis other actions
 Our Colonel will take possession ,t everything, and il the redoubtabe p,,d ley returns, we will detail a guard lo,a. yey him back home, where hrs exc.l imagination can conjure to overRowinp h. danger of aboIiiionists generally, and h. chiyaIrous 30,000 Tn particular We will also give him a specIal guard to pro,,c his corpulent person from the hands of Old Abe.
 And still another act remains to be rs corded, which shows in what light he s, teens the lives Of our men. When b. sent the Battalion of Artillery and lks Jefferson Guards 10 Bearfield they we,a without ammunition and had only 9o rounds of cartridges for the cannon, and no small arms to defend the battery should the fight come to close quarters. Bear. field IS only l5 miles from the Missoun line and was liable at any moment to ba attacked by our enemies. In fact, the steamer Swallow, spy boat beionginr to the abolition government, and armed with heavy guns and we'll equipped, wa, within few miles of the place just before we arrived. Bradley has never given us that amount of ammunition which we needed, and has always placed us in ius such a position that we could have made no effective defence if attacked. lis whole action, since in command, has prov. ed he was unworthy of the trust, and know am not exaggerating, when I say that he has neither friend or an admirqr in the whole regiment. His seIf-respect, at least should dictate 10 him il were best to resign where he was so deseryedly un. popular.
 Chr old friend, Dr. M L Birdsong, has been appointed surgeon of the ballaI. lion ol artillery, position, which from bs he richly deserves, and one which he can fill with honor. The Doc. Tor IS a pleasant, attable- gentleman. good companion, of large experience, aud l had rather see him in his presen. posi- lion than any other gentlemen of my ac. quaiutance in this regiment.
