combat between William Brown, Of the I. S.

"Ea" says William, gazing severely at Com
pany 5, Regiment 5, as it came pouring for
ward, "has the Southern Confederacy conclu-
ded to submit to the United States Of Ameri-
ca?" ......
what the answer was, my boy, I am not
allowed to say, but you may rest satisfied that
thing has been done which | am not permit
ted to diyulge; and should this lead, as hope
it will to movement am not suffered to make
public, it cannot fail to result in a consumma-
ton which [ am forbidden to make known, -~
But if, on the other hand, the strategic, move
ment which I am not at liberty to describe

From New Orleans.

The steamer Potomac has arrived at y. I ork
from New Orleans, with alvices 10 the even
ing Of the lst inst. Considerable excitement
has been occasioned in the Department by the
report that Gen Butler was TO be removed
and transferred to some other scene Of duty
The troops from Baton Rouge some ten thou
sand strong, had arrived in New Orleans, and
had been distributed along the line Of defence.
It was thought that these forces would Re ab e
to hold the city against any attacks. The first
public Iarade of the First Regiment Of Louisl-
ana Union Volunteers has Leen made. \ re-

issued recurring the officers authorized to ad-
minister the oath Of allegiance TO make a full
return Of the names of all citizens and aliens

Advices from Havana to the 9Th inst, state
that the Confederate steamer Florida, had ar
rived from Cardenas, but had been ordered
away by the authorities, and put to sea on the
evening of the lst inst, in the midst Of thun-
der storm.
The Cincinnati Gazette favora the idea Of
having military dictator in the y. S., and
suggests that the President be the person.
The newspapers announce the exit from the
sta GO Of life Of a really great man-Mr. Edwin
G;bbon Wakefield He devised that system of
colonial 70 development and colonial self-g:over,n-

that their superiors have no doubt where the
