FROM MONTGOMERY.


MosTaosgRY, Ala, May ], 1851.
Congress convenes at IL O'Clock, and ad-
journs at =. NJ.
A few resolutions are submitted and re-
ferred.
A few petitions are directed to the appro-
pirate committees after which a motion is
made TO go into secret session, when the un-
willing audience with slow and tagging steps,
take mp their melancholy march. Ed tors and
newspaper reporters cry out, in the lauguage
OF Cassius %, God ye Gods, must / en-
dure all this ?" Everybo body pronounces the
secret sessions q horrible bore Even the
ladies, most singular TO relate, have some
rtostfy. and appear quite loath TO deprive the
honorable Congress OF their east mangniH-
cence. They listen eagerly to catch some
welcome sound of an exception in their favor;
but, alas, none is heard. Then the smiles
which moment ago played on their ripe lips
are seen TO wither, and after a few quick, in
dignant vibrations Of the head, they take up
the line of march, with the tune of Yankee
Doodle beating in their hearts, Just ont OF
spite casting behind them glances of seorn and
as constituent, as if they truly believed with
their departure
90 The sun itself wouid sink,
And all order confounded lie;
Beauty ne void distinction lost,
And gay variety one universal blOt.'
And all this because the poor pri vilege-even
demanded by Lincoln--to hold, occupy and
possess the PUBLIC PLACES belonging to tins
Government was shamefully denied to the
fair creatures.
.
they will really sympathiZe with Old Abe in
his efforts to hang the unmannered rebels"
who dare to refuse the compGny Of refined
young ladies.
Applause from impulses, praise in the eXer-
else of calm judgment, admiration eulogy and
honor, have all been lavished on the Message
of President Davis. Politicians and people
all unite in declaring that it reflects the high
est credit on the statesmanship and ability OF
It's author: that it trumphantly vindica ties
the people and Government of the Confederate
States from the vulgar ISLANDERS of the Presi-
dent and his clan of perfidious usurpers at
Washington, and in power, beauty and per IL
nency, stands unrivalled.
The invitation extended by the Virginia
Convention to the Congress and Governmen
here, TO change their location TO richmond,
will, it is thought, be adopted at very early
day The political effect that the removal to
Richmond would accomplish, ought to ensure
the change, omitting from consideration the
hundred extraneous advantages possessed by
"Big Richmond" over the agreeable little ci ity
of NJ on tgonnery. The moment the people of Fir-
| ginia ratity the Secession Ordinance of then
Convention, three-tourths of the Congress
will favor an immediate removal. The news.
papers here are said to be alarmed, and the
| Mail, of to-day, publishes article the
| subject, urging the authorities, in consideTa
| ton OF the little loss of time that would be
| occasioned, to defer the matter TO Il more
| convenient season.
| Several large acquisitions upon the Treasu
| ry, from the Depar tment of War, have recent
|
| cruiting and the trans por ta tion OF recruits
listed by the officers of this Government il
Tenness see, kentucky, and por tions of Indiana
| Illinois ana Ohio. SO, when Mr.. LincoII
marches his army of Goths and Vandals POI
| the South, it will encounter thousands O
| brave men from the North actuated by higI
| and holy motives, figh ting in behalf of Sou tn
ern liberty and inde pendence.
A highly intelligent agent from the Brazilian
| Government, Signior Don Felix De Castro, let
| Mon tgomery Monday for New Orleans

| came by way of Washington, where he hei,
an i'll terview first with Mr.. Lincoln, who re
ferred him to Seward, liz relation to the block
ade of the Southern ports He expresses
warm feeling for the Confederate Govern
ment and is confident that the Brazilian DOW
ers not only sympathze with us, but will
| strongly protest against Il blockade which,
eifectualiy established and enforced, mus
| prove very injurious to the commercial in ter
esls Of their country. lie declares that all th
Foreign Minis ters, and especially the Minste
tIom France, will oppose the blockade.
