Colonel Carleton, with about three thousand

New Mexico, and others for Salt Lake
SAN Francisco, April %. The United States
steamer Massachusetts, has sailed on cruise.
The ship Dcvonshire has bcen chartered 10
carry load Of spars from huget Sound 10
Spain.
The Indians are again showing symptoms of
hostility on the eastern slobc Of the Sierra Ne
vada. A party Of whites were killed by them
on the 18th, on Owens river, iu Esneralda dis
Iict Of Salt Lake. It Ia reported That they
have destroyed several mail stations, stolen

REBEL PRISONERS REMOVED TO SANpusKY-
THEIR Servants, &c.--The Confederate officers
who are prisoners at Columbus have been or
dered by the Secretary Of War 10 Sandusky-
the former place being regarded us unreasopa
bly, near the rebel precincts and rebel syamps
thizers Moreover, the servants which thew
have been allowed to have with them are moi
to accompany them to Saudusky. They are
in respect to attendance, to be required here
after to do as Is required by the Confederate
authorities of the Union prisoners they hold
that is, to attend or wait upon themselves. Ir
respect to the adoption Of this rule, there wa,
come hesitancy for while on the part Of the
Secretary of War, but bis conclusion fusll,
is that to do 20 as we are done by should be the
rule-sxcept, indeed, that our treatment n,
Confederate prisoners is to be distinguished in
contrast by being always humane.

A PACIFIC RAILROAD.

IL can hardly be necessary to urge upon Re-
publicans, as q political measure, the con-
struction Of railroad to the Pacific upon Q
central route, with the aid ito some sufficient
extent) Of the national means. Not only Is 1t
q part Of the platform Of principles laid down
at Chicago, which was made prominent In
1860, and which played an efficient part in de.
tcrmining the result Of that canvass, but II re-
suits, az logical sequence, from the compoei-
ton Of party representing the free industry
Of the country.
The present time is said to b. inopportune
for the commencement Of such an enterprise.
It seems to U.S. on the contrary, the present
time is not only opportune, but that the time
may not occur again for long period, when
it will be possible to carry out this great
work without unreasonable concessions to To-
cal interests. II is precisely now, when the
Gulf States which have never contributed bat
email proportion Of the national revenues and
which will contribute still less under the new
taxation which is impending, are not represent
ed in Congress, thai central road to the Pacific
becomes possible, without being saddled with
the expensive and impracticable scheme for
which Arizona was purchased.
If tie Gulf States were now 10 the Union,
they would certainly resist, and probably with
success, any appropriation for central road
which was not accompanied with an appropria
ton for The Texas project, That has been the
national experience heretofore and the future
is to be Judged by the past.
Four fiiths Of the wealth Of the country, and
more than four.f .fftbs Of the tax paying cspscit,
Of the country, are now represented, LITERAL,
or virtually, in Congress, and there is not onl,
no injustice, but the highest expediency, il
proceeding to this great work, while we ar,
not embarrassed by the undue power aud b,
The unreasonable demands of narrow section
which has not cherished single national sen,
timent for generation past. When Repub-
licans pledged Themselves to support centra
road 10 the Pacific, they did not agree to ab-
stain from accomplishing that purpose, when i
became for the first time possible 10 be accom-
plshed, on. OF any overstrained Difference tc
those who will support nothing which is nation
al, without an extravugant concession 10 merel,
sectional interests.

Two desertcrs from the Sixth Alabama rrgi

were originally from Pennsylvania. They rep
resent the Confederate forces at one hundred
thousand men, and that they are busily con
structiug works in the rear Of their present
lines. They had no knowledge Of the arrival
Of Jefferson Davis. On Tuesday, the rebels
came out from their riGc-pits in front Of Lees
Mills, killing one Of our pickcs. After he was
dead, about thirty Of them fired their pieces
into his head, completely riddIiug II with bul.

ordered bis men 10 charge on the rebsls, which
was willingly responded to, resulting In several

FROM FORTRESS MONROE,
The Fight at Elizabeth City.
ALL QUIET At NEWBERN.

n From the Blltinore Am -rican OF last Evening /
Arrival ofthc Steamer Adelaide.
The steamer Adelaide, Capt james Cannon,
reached here this morning, about eight o'clock,
with large number of passengers, nearly ali
Of whom were connected with the army or
navy.
The United States steamer Cossack reached
Old Point yesterday afternoon, from Hatteras
Inlet, and amongst the passengers were Col.
Second Maryland regiment. These officers, in
consequence Of difficulties Of military charac.
ter, resigned their commissions. Gen. Burnside
expressed deep regret that any misunderstood
ing should have occurred, and was 10th to part
with them.
On Wednesday the Cosack was boarded of
the inlet by boats crew from one Of the naval
vessels, who informed them of an action which
had occurred al the locks Of the canal near
Elizabeth City, on the previous Monday. Col.
Hawkins's New York Iouaves were attacked
by the Confedcrates, and the Federal casual
tics were set down al fifty killed and wounded.
The adjutant Of regiment was one Of the killed,
and the colonel received q bullet-wound in the
right breast, which is not Of serious character.
This is, no doubt, the same fight previously
reported, but the time In which II occurred IL
probably an error. The Cossack anchored in
Hampton RoadS for the purpose Of receiving
coal and water, and will steam direct for New
York. She has on board fifteen bodies of OIL
GERS who were killed In former fight, and one
hundred and fifty wounded soldiers. The latter
will be cared for in the New York hospitals.
The town Of Newbern is represented as we'll
governed, the strictest military law being en-
forced. But few residents comparatively
speaking, had returned 10 the place, but ali
who were there were well treated by the Fed
eral troops. The Federal officers are generally
guartered In the deserted houses, and the re-
mainder protected by the guard
Under the directions of Gen. Burnside, the
troops had thrown up heavy earthworks, com.
manding all tho approaches TO the place, aud
some strong barricades at the surburbs Of the
town, the line Of Federal pickets extending
nearly twenty miles. The Second Maryland
regiment mastering 900 men, were In good
health; only four being down with the measles.

LETTING OF THE MAIL CONrRAcrs.-At noon,
yesterday was commenced the announcement,

West and Northwest, etc. A large uumbor q,
bidders are in attendance at the Post Office
Department The proposals for the Pacific ara
very much higher than formerly. Those for
Kentucky and Missouri considerably advanced
owing, doubtless, to military disturbances in
those States while in Illinois, Indiana q nd
other States, the rates are lower. 10 all the
number Of routes is about $500, averaging ten

the entire letting Is about equal to those made

the Senate yesterday, which might serve 10
point an elocutionary moral, and should lead
10 the adornmsut Of many Senatorial tale, II
windy stump speakers could take hint 70 In
prove the manners Of their eloquence. Judge
Collamer was speaking upon the worn-out theme
now before the Senate, and almost every chair
was turned towards the speaker, and almost
every eye was bent upon the frank, expressive
features Of this plain gentleman Of the old
school. There was no volubility, no mouthing
Of words Of moostrous length, no violent ges-
tisulatiou, but direct, plain talk, quaint, with
dry humor; tough, with strong points Of law
and full Of sound, hard, "good horse sense" a,
