WASHINGTON 043B2B3PONDENOE.
Letter from 64 Occsolonal."
WAsHiNGTOS, April 17,1861.
We are looking with anxiety for the arrival
of the citizen soldiers of the free States in
this the capital of a country bearing the sa
cred name of Washington, and filled with endu
ring memorials of the triumphs of our institu
tions and our flag. We are impatient to see
Pennsylvanians marching along Pennsylvania
avenue, en their way to renew that oath of
fealty to a Government of which now, as in
times past, they have been-the ready and the
self-aacriticlng defenders. The Secretary of
War, acting in the spirit and upon the au
thority of the proclamation of the President
of the United States, has accepted every offer
Of troops that has been made to him, and to
day is telegraphing to the GOVOTTIOTEI of the
different States to send on their levies without
delay.' It is with:no emotion of fear or doubt
as to the ability of General Scott and the
force at his command to protect this capital
from invasion that I appeal to the peo
ple of my native State to rally at once
to the call of their country, and to estab
lish themselves in the capital of the Re
public. They can leave their homes to their
wives, sisters, mothers, and sweethearts. The
barbarians and banditti now in arms in the
Cotton States, by their unprovoked war upon
the authority of the law, the sanctity of the
Constitution, and the obligations they owe to
that - Constitution, have extinguished every
spark of sympathy heretofore felt for them in
the tree States—have crystalized public opi
nion around the Chief Magistrate, and have
compelled all doubtful men to fly from the
Wrath of an aroused and indignant people,
or to subscribe, on bended knees, to the de
mand that they shall submit to the orders of
the Government, and prove their fidelity to
the flag of the Union. We have no divisions
in the North In this crisis, and Godbe thanked
for It i Even the craven calumniator, Bennett,
of the Herald, who, in his anbotaided maligni
ty, spares neither age nor sex, while scattering
his calumnies over the land, and has dared to
lift his voice against the sacred institutions
that shelter and enrich him, has been com
pelled, like the convicted murderer, with the
halter around his neck, to plead for his life,
by asking pardon for his treason.
Let the men of Pennsylvania and the other
tree States carry out their intentions, by en
trenching themselves in the city of Washing
ton. They need not wait for uniforms, or for
the trappings and pageantry of war—they
need not wait for organisation, for that can
be effected when they reach here—ner need
they be told to bring with them the means of
defence, for to these they are accustomed.
The SeCessienists, like the fiend Macbeth,
alter be bad muniered. his king, betrayed his
country, and slaughtered his friend, are in
crime,
'I Stepped m w for, that. should they wade no more.

They cannot retrace therir steps, end, there
fore, propose to put all upon the hazard
of the die—to risk everything in the des-
peration - of their flepra:vity. Having, with
sacrilegious hands, mutilated the flag of
the Union, they now propose to strike at
the-Union itself. The terrible aspect of the
&Wakened lion of the free States appals them;
and yet, while they tremble before the thunder
of the tempest of popular wrath, they prepare
to attack, because they know they are attainted
traitors, and that the life of every one is forfeit.
Surrounded by a hollow home sentiment, and
still buoyed up by the belief that those who
profess to be of them are so, they , are un
doubtedly preparing to make an attack upon
Washington, Unlike ray countrymen of the
free Staten, however, they cannot safety leave
behind then their wives and their children.
The fear will follow them like a fate that, when
they go forth, in imitation of the British
iaders torty-sis years ago, to desolate this
splendid metropolis, to fire its buildings, and,
it may be, to give it up to rapine, they
May furnish a fatal opportunity for such
a servile insurrection among their slaves
as the world Itas never seen—one that will MT
pass, in all its inconceivable horrors, San Do
naingo itself. Let them beware, lest while
they are celebrating the carnival over their
country's ruin, those nearest and dearest to
them may not be offered up as sacrifices amid
the yells of a suddenly liberated slave popu
lation. Virginia' is expected to participate in
the visit of the marauders to the capital. Go
vernor Wise furnished the key-note some
months ago, and Ben McCulloch, the inmate
of Mr_ Bnebanartis familrup to the expiration
of his Preeadency, has been reconnoitring the
heights around Washington, finding out its
salient points, and preparing to cannonade
the Southern men and women constituting the
majority of our people, and claiMed as the
brothers and sisters of . Mr. Davis and is ban.
The purpose is to force an evacuation, and
to this end to shed blood without mercy:
find Maryland tooi—what part is she ex
pected to play in this pions pastime ? One of
her morning papers suggests that Maryland
will defend -tile capital on condition that na
troops from a distance shall he' Marched into it
at the call of the President of the United
States. This ingenious expedient may origi
nate in patriotic motives, but it seems to me
that it would not contaminate the Maryland
regiment if they were slightly commingled
with the stalwart troops of Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, New York, and Ohio. We helped old
Virginia and Maryland doting the war with
Mexico to maintain their own honor, and to
chastise a foreign foe that invaded South
ern territory, and we can do so again.
Invited in 1846 and 1847 to furnish the
Complement necessary to all up the fee
ble regiments of the Old Dominion, our
gallant boys came forward in cheerful
ray, and more than one left bis bones to
bleach in the fastnesses of Mexico, and shed
his blood under the flag of the stars unfurled
in a Southern war. It is true that neither the
Secessionists of Virginia or Maryland invite
us to day. But our country does. Oar Pre
sident does. The memories of the past, the
hopes of the future, our duties ast men, as
fathers and brothers—all invite us to go to
Washington, and in going there to show that
we are resolved to stay there until we are
cOnVinced that we have a Government, and it
pray te, which Heaven forfend, to remain
there forever.
I repeat that preparation is not war. The
American people do not propose to attack,
and those only who pant for blood, and Ima
ger for punishment, will encounter the formi
dable front of the hundreds of thoustindawbo
WI resolved to protect their five institations.
Washington is a delightful city,'and'the ac
coUUnodations that can be tarniihed to our
countrymen who come here to discharge this
grateful duty will be most ample. There is
plenty to eat, and plenty to drink. Five thou
sand good men can be accommodated in the

firmly as Independence Hall rests_on its sa

is their money that the Government will
spend—money, not like that which is called
for to fill the costive coffers of Davie and
his crew, extorted from a reluctant people,
stolen from a munificent country, or borrowed
with. no expectation of repayment—butmoney
resulting from revenues honestly collected, or
furnished from the pockets of the honest, in
dustrious, and patriotio men of the free
States. Se that, although there may be peril
in the journey hitherwards, there is pleasure

What a field is opened to the ambitious
young men! What an opportunity for re

sacrifice of life, or called forth the courage of
our race. It is not only that those we. are.
prepared to resist have forfeited all claim to
the name of Americans, but that the cause we
are aroused to defend is worthy of all the
gratitude we can express, and all the gifts,
whether Of fortune or of blood, we can bestow.

Southern Letters of Marque and Re
- --
If anything were needed to add to the in
famy of the Montgomery rebels, it is the
action of JEFFSRSON DAVIN is announcing his
intention to issue letters of marque and re
prisal, which is neither more nor less, under
the circumstances, than an attempt to com
mence the war by an aggression upon private
property, and to throw a flimsy veil of legality
over the worst of crimes—piracy. This
scheme .has long been threatened, and now
the effort to put into execution is boldly made.
It any are found rash or foolish enough to
accept this invitation, they will richly deserve
the fate which probably awaits them, of being,
strung up on the yard-arm of their own vetted,
as the beast of felons. It is said that weeks
ago some Northern captains, in,view of the
Present rupture, applied to leading Southern
conspirators tor such plundering privileges as
it is now proposed to grant. If any attempt to
exercise them, and they should be captureod,
as they Inevitably will be, God help them.

The historian of this eventful era will have
few nobler themes than THONAS HOLlanar
Mews,' the Governor of Maryland. At the
beginning of this fearful contest, he declared
for the Union, and through all its varying and
complicated phases, in spite of a most unscru
pulous and bitter opposition, he has been loyal
to the cause of his country. He is for the
Union to-day, without concealment or condi
tion, and he pledges his State to the support
of the Government in every effort to sustain
its honor and dignity.
Tun 'FINANCIAL Asracr of the times is not
the least gratifying evidence of the patriotic
spirit of our people. Secretary CEASE boldly
asserts his ability.to conduct the Government

The highest circulation, on ene - day, of any
newspaper, was that of the London Times, in
April, 1:82% - vnitaltaing the celebrated letter of
Queen. Ossonins to her husband, GZORGE the
Fourth. Of that single number, 200,000 copies
were sold. As the Times was then sold at
fourteen cents a copy, of whiCh eight cents
were paid to the Gotreitenent for 'Stamp duty,
the immense sum of $28,000 was actually re
ceived for that single edition. We mention
this fact to correct the mistake (or mendacity - )
of the New York Herald, which claims 186,000

Granting that this number was sold, at two
cents a copy, the full amount received was
$2,700, against $28,000 lOr the Times.
The Opera Last Night—Debut of Miss
Kellogg•
The opera of Linda di Chatnownix, one to
Doniaetti's most *harming works, was produced
last night for the disbut of Mins Clara Louise Hel
logg, another native prima donna, who bids fair to
rival Mies Hinkley in the estimation of our mud.
cal public. The assooiated artists are rich in
prima donna—the magnificent Colson, the pi
quant and beautiful ilinkley—and last evening
their last and equally sure musical card, Min
Hellogg—for whose success, modest and, brilliant
as it was, much is due to Signor Musio, whose fa.
vorite pupil she has been, who has prepared her
for the high position she assumed, and properly
occupied on the lyric stage last evening.
Miss Kellogg hugs pure soprano voles, rich in
quality, perfect in its intonation, with remarkable
flexibility and great sympathetic power. She has
evidently been taught in the beet modern Italian
sehool, and, to be guilty of a vulgarism, " sings es
if she meant it."' Yet in her teens, she has a
flute, figure, and stage presence which immediately
enlist the sympathies of her auditors, and the ex
cellence of her style, her youth and beauty, com
bine to make her attraction complete.
her naivete is primal, &sinning, and before
she had given utteran c e toe single note, her very
appearance at once enlisted the sympathies of the
auditing in her favor. Her opening cavatina was
admirably rendered. " 0 Luse di quest anima"
mune crisp and sparkling from her lips. The duo
with Brignoli, " A Consolaini,” has rarely, eines
Sontag's days, been heard to equal advantage. In
the second act Miss Kellogg was heard to equal
advantage, and her rendition of " The Clara
Louise Polka," as a finale, composed expressly for
her by her maestro; Signor Waste, completed her
triumph. As a coraposition, it redounds highly to
the credit of Signor Mum, and ample jostles was
rendered it by his admirable pupil, who, in a sin.
gle phrase, we may confidently say, has achieved
a great and well-merited imeaess.
The tenor ?die of Carlo was admirably saetained
by Signor :Thigpen, who was in emu:Rent voice.
His romance of "Si tante in Ira agli nomini,"
onseMd.a perfect furore. Studnits interpretation
of The Prefect was a great porter/name, and
Ardavant's rendition of Antonio gave great and
well-merited satilifaetion. The celebrated Canon
was given in excellent style. We congratulate
the management on another brilliantly imeoeuful
(rebid and thor oughly artistic perfannarcie. -
Whilst doing aninle justice to Atka Kellogg, we
nand not omit ewerding the highest praise to Miss
Adelaide frne personiedem of Pterotto.
Her full, rich contralto Waives never heard te

This evening Verdi's latest and most popular
work, "Ii Ballo Masehera," will be given for the

How is this Capital to be Defended
If the Disunionist' should take possession of the
heights around Washington, and plant cannon
there, they 4114 insist upon the surrender of the
capital as a condition precedent to saving it from
destruction, unless the Government anticipates
their movements and takes . possession of these
heights. This single feat shows to the Union men
of the Border (States the utter absurdity of their
remaining in a doubtful position. It may not be
necessary to cross these States to reach South Osm
ium and Georgia, but it is unituestionably the duty
of the Government to bring the defenders of the
capital through Maryland, and to locate them on
the heights near Washington, if the eity, and the
Government are to be saved. This argument re_
calves additional strength from the fact that both
Virginia and Maryland, made Asir cession of the
District, and were paid therefor ; and it will be re

to Virginia, it was done without exacting a single

WILIIINWPON, April 17.—The Union fooling now
praVailing here is intense, and the few Seoesstonista
have been overawed by the determined aspect of
the people. A scheme to seise Fort Delaware was
undoubtedly projected, but it has been frustrated
by the suizion of the Government. A oompany had
been organised, and the arms were to be taken
from the Military Academy to equip them. This
movement was designed with a double effect-- It
was to get possession of the academy rifles so that
they could not be had by the people in a sudden
emergency, and to arm an efficient company to
carry out secession when the time to act should
arrive.
Our merchants are frowning down Seceszden by
a determination to patronize no paper that does
not give expression to Union sentiments. Senator

THE VOLUNTEERS MOTION.
GREAT ENT.RUOILSE AMONG CIVILIANS
MEETING OF THE NEEOHANTS,
Speeches, Resolutions, Etc.
The announoement, at ibree o'clock yeaterday
afternoon, by means of extra newspapers, that the
Capitol, at Washington, was menaced by traltorw
from Virginia, created a- profound excitement in
this atty. It was coupled with the announcement
that the navy yard at Norfolk was endangered, and
that the armory at Harper's Ferry would probably
be in the hands of the rebels by night time. The
volunteers were forthwith anxious for immediate
march. The wildest enthusiasm prevailed. Troops
and citizens earned the laggard movements of the
Government in not providing them with arms and
regimentals, and every company at once sent out
recruiting corporals to beat up fighting men in all
the lanes and highways.
Yesterday at noon the members of the Board of
Trade and the merchants and Manufacturers of .
Philadelphia met at the Board of Trade rooms,
Chestnut street, alas* FM, to respond to the
Gall of the President of the United States to pro
hiet the Union, the Constitution, and the Ylsg of
our Country.
The meeting was very large, and all classes of
the business interests of the oily were represented.
Among the patron. preprint were several commer
filial members of the Society of Friends. who seemed
to be actuated by the same patriotic spiriewhieh
actuated the more worldly portion of the sawn-
Wage.
The meeting was galled to order by Mr John E.
Addieks, upon whose motion Mr. David 8 Brown
was called to the ohair, and Mr. William C. Lud
wig was selected to set she emiletary.
The venerable President, on taking the chair,
said :
No higher duuj ever called the c Cams of Phila.
delphla together than the one now, and that la to
present our views on the orbits en the country, to
preserve a Union among ourselves, and to express
our warm, ardent, determined sum:summit to and
support of the General Government in the execu
tion of the laws in the support of the National
Union: lApplause I He had been called on tin
expeated to preside, and bad no sot remarks to
make. lie trusted that every One entertained the
most loyal.feellngs, and will do all in hie power to
support the GOVernment, now iu the" hour of im
pending danger. [Renewed applause.] It is the
duty of freemen, the wise and discriminating men
of the country, to amemble around our national
banner, And, with bead and Lando joined together,
there should be but"roue impulse now—that of a
firm, unyielding, fervent, and substantial support.
[Great applause. J Mr. Merrick, who represents
the Board of Trade, will more properly state the
obj .m eat of calling you together.
8 nal V. Merrick. Erq., elated briefly the ac
tion taken by the Bxeoutive Committee of the
Board of Trade. He said the committee is calmly
looking upon the events now transpiring In differ
ent seotions of the country, conceived it to be their
duty togive some expression of opinion concerning
them The contest has arrived at that particular
cried' that every man is now either for or against
this Union. The Executive Committee in some re
solutions which they adopted, said the merchants
and manufacturers would re true to the Union.
[Great rounds of applause.] And on these views
WO thought it a duty we owed to ourselves, and the
body at large, to afford an opportunity to give a
general expression of the Emile:tents entertained.
He would offer the following resolutions .
811504111101f8
Wleereas, The Board of Trade of Philadelphia
have called upon the merchants and manufacturers
of this city to meet, at this unparalleled oriels of rut
national affairs, for the purpose of expressing their
loyalty to the Union, the Constitution, and the
flag of our country.
And whereas, We feel bound to respond to such
an appeal, not only by our conviction of the entire
dependence of all commercial and industrial en.
terprise on the maintenance of those principles of
sootal orderff.which underlie civil society, but are
Mae eq impelled by every sacred obligation of duty
and devotion to that Government to whole protec
tion under God, we owe the existence of , all our
prosperity and happiness tut a people; therefore,
Resolved, That the merchants and manufao
turers of Philadelphia will yield to no class of oiti•
Lent of this Commonwealth in their unwavering
fealty and devotion to the Union, the laws, the
Constitution and the flag of the United Statu.
Resolved, That forgetting all political differ
ences; unmindful of party lines and distinctions
remembering only that we are fellow-oltitens of
one beloved country, and that country in danger,
we hereby pledge ourselves to pre ail our infinenee
to strengthen the hands of the eavenunent ; and
cheerfully to bear our share of the sacrifices and
perils of the hour.
The reading of the resolutions elicited enthusi-
Ratio cheers.
George N. Latham, Esq., now arose and said
that everything in the shape of political feelings
had *limp been most sedulously excluded from
this hall. He never belonged to any political
party; he bad never sought any office,and there.
fore any remarks that he had to mke cannot
truthfully be attributed to any political feeling
that he might, as an, individual, entertain. [Ap.
plattle.] We have been told, time and again, by
despairing politielana that the terrible crisis now
rearing its bloody staff in the South is the result of
outrages oommittisd by thi North. This he would
thy, in God's truth, was false. [Applause.] The
discord of disunion, as first waged in eolith Caro
lina, and now input yielded to by other Southern
States, is a political trick, that will recoil in terri
fic and consuming power on the souls and bodies of
the traitors and perjurers who have raised the
issue. [Great applause.] The present crisis is
the work of thirty long years.
J. L Busby, Esq., arose and said that he did not
know that it was nboessary to say a word to induces
any one present to favor the adoption of the reso
lutions; -but he would say there is a sacredness, a
dignity, in assembling in the very shade of Inde
pendence Hall, to counsel together, with the hops
of fanning the flame of patriotism, and, uniting in
one common body as freemen, should declare,
in
unmistakable CorniS, our fealty to the. Thelon, the
Conatittition, and the laws. [Applause. It is
I time for freemen to speak out: He bad read in
the papers this morning that when the proclama
tion of President Lincoln was read in the Conven
tion of the traitors in the Southern Confederacy,
that it was received with laughter derisive
laughter. If such ghastly laughter is not enough
to sink their souls, then it must be degraded in
deed. They know not, in their blindness, they
sit on a volcano, ready to burst, and swallow and
reduce them to ashes; but, thank God, they do
not represent all the people of the South. Ap
plause.l_
The North now presents a united front. We
have waited with patience month after month
with the hope of bringing batik the erring ones to
the paths of peace and to their duty to their coun
try and their God. Rut our hopes have failed,
and we now And europium driven to the alterna
tive of more-decided aeUon, and to proalsith our
selves before Heaven And the world, that we are
ready to stand in defence of the priceless boon
that has been transmitted to us, and baud it down
in all its God-like and God-approved parity to out
posterity, 'ea we have` received it from the patriotle
fathers of the Republic. [Tremendous and long
continued applause. ] Can we ever forget that
flag that has waved over so many fields?
That flag that has elicited the praise of other
nations besides our 'own! That deg that has
cheered the hearts of patriots In the remotest parte
of The world? Can we, Mr. President, in the
name of God, in the name of humanity,: in the
name of liberty, in the name and memory of
George Washington and hie ciempatriote;'orin we
forget the flag of the fres, and submit to cower
ing sneaking, Perjured traitors ? [Tremendous
applause j No, farim itfrom us as merchant. and
manufacturers We and the entire yeomanry of
