The Mr.. RUSSELL, who now represents the
London Times here, is the same gentleman

take a verbatim account of the oration. The
Liberator not only consented, but, in his oiliest
manner, informed the assembled audience that
"until that gentleman was provided with all

word, assuming an extra brogue, which was
altogether unnecessary. Russell was delighted

FROM MoNrsoMERY.-The Montgomery cor.
respondent Of the Charleston Mercury writes,
under date Of March %, as follows:
The list OF navy appointments is not vet CON-
plete, but hope to send you copy in few days
twill be seen by the navy bill passed by Congress
this session, that very few sffcen are allowed at
present. These have all been taken from the
number Of officers who resigned from the United
States Navy, and who had claims superior to any
other that could be urged. Very many civilians,
from each Of the States have sent In applications
for commissions in the navy, but 1t will be seen at
once that there are now no vacancies to fill The
million appropriation will bring few vessels
Into service as soon as they can be obtained, but
there have already been commissions issued to Ill
all the offices. The department is getting into
working order as rapidly as possible but Ooera-
tions are delayed on account of the absence of
several officers now on duty at Charleston or Pen
sacola few lieutenants are recruiting for the
marine service.
The Treasury Department is now in fine work.
ing order, all the appointments having been
made, furniture and books obtained, and rooms
put in order. They are now ready to transact any
business that comes under the head of Treasury
matters. The subscription books for the new
Government loan have all been sent out, and
nearly all of the advertisements As told Won in
my last, the bonds will be issued sometime next
month for large amount of subscribed stsck
which has been taken at par. The greatest diff
Guilty the Department has to contend with is want
OF room, as no rooms OF sufficient size can be OBJ
talnsd for the use of clerks, and those now occu-
pied are far too small. The government build
ing, Dy no means large one, contains all the
departments, and each is considerably cramped
for room.
dispatch from Warrington navy-yard, re-
ceived this morning, says that Col. Bragg is still
busy In preparations for an attack. Fifteen hun
dred troops from Missssip ppi are now on their way
to Pensacola The two regiments will be in Mo-
bile In few days, and from there will march
