WASHINGTON, March 24-The Secretary of War
is about to assemble, in this city, a special court
martial for the trial Of several newspaper pub
fort to the enemy by publishing Information as to
the strength. position and movements Of the
Federal troops. George Ilunt g. Co., of the Bos-
ton Courier; Prune Stone, Hall h Halleck, of the
New York Journal of Commerce; and Samuel
-Bowles & Co., Of the Springfield (Mass.) Republi-
can, are among the publishers who have been re-
ported to the War Department. violation of
the articles of war with which they are charged is
punishable with death.
Several. editors will probably be hung here
within the next two weeks.
The bill for the emancipation of slavery in the
District of Columbia, came up in the Senate to.
day. 1t is MIR. Trumbulrs bill. Mr.. Salisbury, of
Delaware, made a speech against it. Garrett
Davis, of Kentucky, offered the following as O
substitute for Trumbull's bill. &3a
Is Resolued That although the subject of slavery
in the States is exclusively in the Jurisdiction and
cognizance Of the Government and people Of the
States, and cannot be lterfered with directly, or
indirectly by the Government of the United States
mine to emancpate their slaves, the United States
shall pay q reasonable price for their slaves, SO
emancipated, and the cost of colonizing them in
some other country. s5FEss4 ~ s'ra W
The question was then taken on Mr.. Davis
amendment, which resulted in nineteen votes being
cast aye, and nineteen votes nay, which was a tie,
and MIR. Hamiin, the Vice President voting in the
negative, the bill was defeated. t ssg 3R
In the House, Mr.. Ashley, from the Committee
porary organization of Government in Arizona.
One Of the sections prohibits slavery therein, as
well as in all the Territories now organized. No
action was taken upon it.

most sincere thanks and profound gratitude, q.

navv should give to it a decided temporary sSc-
an6erior military qualities of the Southern soldier.
int temporary success has at length crowned the
vast efforts to invade our soil. l
BIT, gentlemen, feel assured that all our coun-
trymen agree with you, that it is but present
success. So far from our people being discouraged,
SO far from losing confidence in their cause, my
observations over line of country extended from
field against overwhelming odds have called for
spirit that will command victory, or bring about
immolation of whole people upon the altar OF our
fortunes. Everything that our people have,
whether of life or property, is freely ofierednay
is urged upon the Government. They demand Dut
one thing-the free and prompt use of those IN
valuable gifts in behalf of what is more valuable
their liberties. 1t cannot be doubted that the
government will be inspired by such spirit of de-
votion, and that the higher qualities OF a nobler
cause, and of a patriotic devotion to defend homes
which produce greater endurance, and greater
sacrifices, viii eventually roll back this ruthless
and wicked invasion, and finally establish us ma
ton worthy of the worlds respect.
/ believe it to be my duty, gentlemen, to proceed
at once to Richmond, and propose to do so by TO-
morrow mornings train. This will render it i'm.
possible for me to accept your kind invitation to
see and address you and my fellow-townsmen gen
orally in more formal manner.

Meetings, for the purpose of influencing planters

held in various parts Of the State and the general
opinion 50 lar as it can be ascertained from this
source, Is that no cotton seed should be planted .
but that the breadth of land heretofore planted
with cotton seed should be cultivated in bread
Suits. This recommendation rests upon the fact
that the military forces must be sustained under
all circumstances and at every hazard: more mar

forces employed within its own borders. ( ~
