Privateering ana ConfiscatIon.

A Baltimore paper tells an anccdote charac-
teristc of Michigan men; as showing their love
for the Union. A private in the First, named
Rorison, while walking in the streets of Alex
andria, holding handsome bouquet in his hand,
was met by young lady, a daughter OF
Col Manning, of the rebel army, who snatched
the flowers from him, remarking indignantly,
as she tossed them into the gutter, "That is a
Union bouquet" Rorison, chagrined at the
unladylike act, said, MADAM, is that the way
you would encourage privateering and the con-
fscation of Union property?" She replied that
it was, and that if it were possible she would
coniscate him also."
A few days after this Rorson was missed
from his post, and, search being instituted was
found by the Orderly in Col. Mannings parlor
costly seated beside the daughter of the house
engaged in discussing the Union question and
dish of strawberries and cream. When taken
before Col. Wilcoxand questioned as to his abb
sence, Rorson stated that he had captured a
prisoner, and, when interrupted by the Orderly
was confiscating the rebel property. The
Colonel suspended sentence and advised him
to go Immediately and administer the oath Of
allegiance TO his fair prize.

LFrom the Knoxville whig.l
Receipt of a Masked battery by Browns

One day last week, the Southern mail
brought small package, done up precisely
like a newspaper, and about equal in size 10
one of our exchanges, with the usual en-
dorsement, "Brownlow's Wing, Knoxville,
Tennessee" and postpaid. Upon opening
it, we found it to contain about half yard
of brown domestic, with blood and scabs on
it, resembling a cloth taken from some one
afflicted with small pox. We had it burn
ed in the front yard of our Printing Office,
after handling it with tongs This is the
spirit Of Secession-its mode Of warfare
and its sense of honor. Clever men, hero
tofore high-miuded, will not be long in their
ranks until they will openly justify even
this mode Of warfare against Union men.
This attempt at our death, by the plant
ing of masked battery, manned by tho
ubiquitous spirit of Secession, entities the
cowardly villain who did it, to tho honor OF
being picketed in the deepest gorge leading
to helll Not only so, but ho should bo re-
quired to make nightly advances upon the
ambuscades of the Devil; and every morn
ing of his life, by way of heslthful exercise,
he should make reconnaissance Of tho
damned, having the entire control Of the
guerrilla rebels Of the internal regionsl

A PATRIoTIo SoUTHERN LADY.-A pat
riotic Southern lady, now in Washington,
proposes soon to call upon the President for
the purpose of telling him that he must deal
more vigorously with the traitors; that he
must hang tho leaders unless he would be
hung himself She says-and she has but
recently left hot-bed of ofsecession-that the
Union men oft South feel far more strong
ly on this subject than the North, and in
sist upon the rigid and unsparing execution
of the laws. They know what reign of
terror means, and have suffered, and desire
that their prosecutors should meet with just
punishment. They do not believe in the
quality of mercy-twice strained. Letters
from Kentucky, Tennessee, and even Geor-
gia, breathe the same spirit Wash. Oor.

The Largest Fortress in the world.

Eighteen miles from Warsaw stands the larg-
est fortress in the world-a fortress with case
mated and bomb-proof barracks for forty thous-
and men, and with circumference of eleven
miles. Whether this fact is generally known
or not, it is certain that very few Englishmen-
very few persons of any country but Russia
have been allowed the opportunity ofinspecting
this wondrous stronghold. Nor, l believe il
plan or sketch of the immense works; and, as
evidence of the jealousy with which it is hid
den from the eyes of strangers, .may mention
that special permission from the Gar is requis-
lite to enable any foreigner to enter it. The
fortress is called Modlin, or the New Georgian;
in Russia, Novo- -Giorgiewick.

BEJ@. The lying Abolition papers, headed
by the Chicago Tribune, assert that the Sc
cession movement has caused thirty boats
to be laid up at Cairo, "for want of freight,
Sc The fools know, or ought to know,
that the few boats laid up at Cairo (there
were only 6 or g, were ST Louis packets,
and the chief, if not the only cause, was the
scant Of aeater to navigate the river, and a
little too much ice.
We don't know whether these Lincolnites
are "more fools than knaves" We expect
next to hear them say that the planting of
a gun on the Walnut Hills, at Vicksburg,
by the Governor of the free and independent
State of Mississippi, for the purpose of sa-
luting passing steamers, will cause falling
off in the trade with upper ports We will
venture the assertion, however, that if there
is anything to be made by the shipments,
the greed for the almighty dollar will make
the Northerners run the risk of that big
gun.-Lou. C0af',, Jan. II.

The Report of the Committee of
ThirfY-thfee.

The majority of the Committee of Thirty
three, in their report, propose an amendment
10 the Constitution providing that no
amendment thereto interfering with Slave
ry, shall originate in any other State than
a slaveholding State, and to be valid shall
be ratified by every State in the Union.
They also submit an enabling bill for the
admission of New Mexico as State, on an
equal footing with the original States, and
a fugitive slave bill, which gives the right
of trial by jury to the slave claiming liberty
in the State whence he escaped, and releases
any citizen from assisting the United States
marshals in the capture or detection of the
fugitive, except where force is employed or
apprehended for the release of the fugitive.
The committee submit joint resolution
deprecating personal liberty bills (but not
by that name(, and requesting the North
ern States to cause their statutes to be re-
we'd, in order that all hindrances to the
Just execution of the laws may be removed
The President is requested to communicate
this resolution to the several States.
They also report series of resolutions
recognizing no authority on the part of the
people of one State to interfere with the in
stitutons of another, and discountenaneing
all mobs and hindranceS TO the rendition of
fugitive slaves. They recognize no such
conflicting elements in its composition, or
sufficient cause from any source for a dis
solution of the Government They were
not sent here to destroy, but to sustain and
harmonize the institutions of the country,
aud see that equal justice is done to all
parts of the same, and finally to perpetuate
its existence on terms of equality and Justice
to all the States.
AS no propositions for interference with
slavery in the District of Columbia, United
States dock y?rds, arsenals, etc, have
reached the committee they have not
deemed it necessary to take action on the
subject.
Another set of resolutions is with refer
ence to the duties of the States and tho
Federal Government, referring to the duty
/ of all constitutional obligations, and assert
ing that the Federal Government should en-
force the laws and preserve the Union ol
