TUE Confederate BLOCKADE RUNNING


BI SINESS.
letter from reliable source states that
since the 18th of March, twenty-six steamers
have left the port of Nassau, N. p, to run the
blockade, of which ten were driven ashore and
destroyed, and one supposed to have been lost.
The same letter states that the heavy losses
of the last two months have greatly enhanced
the rate of freights and wages, SO that business
firms getting little shy of the business.
The names of these steamers are often
changed, which gives the impression that the
l.umheE engaged in this trade is much lar ger
than it really is. For instance, the Stonewall
was at one time called the Leopard, the Victory
the Wagner, and Anne Childs, Thistle the
Cherokee, Margaret and Jesse the Douglas,
Anlonica the Herald, Ella and Annie the VIM
g. Hewes, while the HaYelock Is now called
the Beauregard

THE EALLANDIGHAM MEETING IN New
YoIK.-The sympathizers with Vailands CHAM
in New York held a meeting on Monday night
in Union Square. to protest against the arrest
Of Eallandigham. None of the speakers were
of any prominence. but some Of them made up
in violence what they lacked in ability.
Among them was that astonishing ex-Ala-
bamian, K. s. Tharin, who seems to have ey-
perienced q sudden conversion since he was
splurging here at the meeting OF Department
clerks to raise volunteers.
A threat Of assassination Of President Lin
coin was made by fellow styled Edmun
Blankman, who also counseled resistance to
the draft, styled the hanging of the traitor
Mumford in New Orleans ssmurder.'' and went
On at some length in this first-class style OF

THE New South Of The oOth inst h..

The New South of the Goth inst has
some additional particulars in relation to
the Atlanta, which are interesting. Ii
says;
"We learn that the officers Of the At
lanta came out with the intention of en-.
gaglng and capturing the Weehawken.--
She was followed down by two wooden
gunboats filed with ladies and other ex-
curslonlsts, who were 10 witness the fight,
1t having been arranged that one of the gun
boats should tow the Weehawken up to
Savannahi then the Atlanta was to 90 to
ossabaw, capture a guaboat, take some
batteries, entrap the 47th New York and
leave force there to hold the batteries
Next she was going to Charleston to CO.
operate by signal with some rebel boats in
annlhllatlng the blockading fleet, after
Which she was to pay her rerpects to the
Fort Royal squadron. This nice little pro-
gramme was very summarily changed
The flngal had two months provisions ON
board and ammunition of the very best
quality"
