MILITARY AND NAVAL MOVE.
The war steamers Mississippi, Minneso-
ia, Colorado and Pawnee, and the brig
Bainbridgc, in addition to those previously
rtpored, are getting ready for sea with al
possible haste. The Pawnee has already
set sail from the Washington navy yard.
The destination Of the forces is still d
weu-kept secret. Boats for expeditiously
landing the troops hare been p1aced-on
board the steamers. The Charlestowu
navy yard is full OF workmen, and all
the highest state Of activity
and, in short, everything is being done
which would be done if fight had been
determined On at the earliest practicable
moment. Rather more than the usual
number Of exciting rumors will be found
among our telegraph dispatches. The
latest sensation is that Ben McCul1och is
bound to seize Washington tile moment a
drop of blood is shed on the Southern
coast

It is rumored that Pennsylvania will
Immediately be put on a war footing by her
State authorities, to meet any possible e1i-
gency like an invasion Of Washington by
jeff Davis and hi. fellow traitors. II not
true, it certainly ought to be. There is but
one way for the government Of the United
States to maintain even the show OF IN ex-
istence, and that is By holding the fortresses
in its possession and collecting The revenue.
If reasonable foray is made upon Wash
ington OF the Northern States in conEe'
quence, it must be repelled by the North
ern States, and they had better all be
getting in readiness for the event.

for lts shot and shells would protest against
such acts Of war. An attempt by JEFF Davis
to throw his Pensacola army toward Washing
ton would be Immediately checkmated by
transferring the feet and army from Charleston
to Washington: The possibility of this plan Of
cability Of q landing On Morris Island. That
effected In force, the rest follows. 1t is re-
ported that there is great dissatisfaction exist
ing among the Confederate troops on th&t ISL
and Many Of them are Germans and Irish.
and workingmen who are not in their hearts
for the secession cause. The sight Of the old
flag Of the Union, s'that banner Of beauty and
glory" might recall them to their allie glance
to the Federal Government, and the fighting
might not be remarkable bloody. We shall
see In day or TWO, for If the blow is to be
struck At Fort Sumter. it will fall speedily.

persons in Chicago to go South Ito their
friends" We have an amendment to offer
right here, which is-that Mr. Turveydrop
Of the Times Office, should 60 South to his

be more popular in Chicago than the one
suggested in behalf OF our colored people.

From the Cincinnati Commercial.J
There are, as nearly as can be ascertained,
Tires thousand effective Southern troops
in the immediate vicinity Of Charleston:
the communication betwean the city of
Charleston and the Ielauds is under the guns
Of Fort Sumter. There are not more than
fifteen hundred troops on Morris Island, and
the batteries there are nearly all erected
with the view Of sweeping the channel, and
not to prevent IN attack in the rear. The
resources Of the General Government
are conslderable. There are about two thou
sand troops now at New York, and otherayaiI-
.ble Northern points. There we're four hun
drad on the Brooklyn. There are at least
thousauti inst Withdrawn from Texas. Now. #
