From our own Correspondent,
Dover, January IS, 1862.
Mr.. EDIroR:
Our usually qaiet capital was
yesterday enlivened by the reappearance Of
their honors, the members Of the General
Assembly, which convened at o'clock.
Nothing of Importance or interest has yet
transpired.
In the House yesterday afternoon, MIR,
Belts presented a communication from
Charles NJ. Almond, in reference to certain
arms and ordnance, seized in pursuance of
an order OF General Lockwood, asking that
the bond given to the State for said arms be
cancelled. The communication was referred
to the committee raised on so much of the
Governors Message as relates to the Estate
Arms"
A resolution was offered, prohibiting the
reception of any new business this session,
and postponed until this afternoon. do
not think it will be adopted as the prevail
ing opinion seems to be that the session will
continue two or three weeks ut least.
Mr. Appleton from the committee to
whom, at the special session, was referred so
much of the Governors Message as relates
to the assumption of the direct tax, offered
a resolution directing the State Treasurer TO
make inquiry. whether the Banks Of the
State can loan the State the sum of
S65,3S5 %, for period OF six months the
consideration of which was postponed until
this afternoon
There seems to be great doubt as to the
assumption of the direct tax by the Legisla.

HesIgnation of Gen. cameron,

The telegraph of Tuesday announced th,
resignation of Gen. Cameron as Secretar,
of War; and the appointment of Hon
Edwin NJ. Stanton, of Pennsylvania, as hi.
successor. With the nomination of Mr.
Stanton also went into the Senate that of
Mr. Cameron as Minister to Russia, in place
of Cassius NJ. Clay, who asked to be recall

position at the latter's solicitation. Mr..
Stanton, it viii be recollected, was Attorney
General toward the conclusion of President

arduous position he sacrifices immense pri-

Mr.. Stanton has always voted with that

d" STONE BLOCKADES."

Our readers are aware that tho Londor
Times has recently been very much exercised
by the announcement that the National Govern
ment has sunk q few ships in the harbor oi
Charleston, for purpose Of reducing the number
Of channels necessary to be guarded by our
blockadiog vessels. Waxing eloquent IN it's de-
Dunciation of this proceeding, the London ionrnel
expresses the mild conviction that "people who
would do an act like this would pluck the snn
out Of the heavens to put their enemies in da,k.
ness, or dry up the rivers that no grass might
forever grow on the soil where they had been
offended" and adds that such acts sought not
to be permitted by the guardians of the civiliza-
tion Of mankind"
II seems that "sione blockades" are among the
"antiquated precedents" which our British son
temporares hold to have spent their force when
they were last practiced by the English Govern
ment historical correspondent of the Hartford
