We reached this point about eleven o'clock in

trorisions were unloaded for the use of the eel-
The wharf is in a very delapidated condi

wiled the movements of Ccl. Bradford, quarter
ieaster of the HOMO Guard, the barracks have been

render the soldiere comfortable. While there has
hen very little done as yet to improve the condi
of the fort, we trust the Federal Government

rat point, and place it in an impregnable canal

~3 a ing utensils, beds, bedding, and a fresh
m pply of provisions are sent down daily. The
remainder's quarters, located near the centre of
tie fort, have also been furnished. Sergeant
Bromley informed no that they had sixty-six pins,
altamagh only throe of them have been placed on
zoclatriagee, and prepared for immediate action. ,
They have thirty thirty-two pounders, twenty
taatity-two pounders. and nine first-class guns a
Fort Muffin They are deficient in gun-oarrtages,
hoverer. A large number of them, conatruoted
nf cypress, are lying in the store-room, condemned
and pronounced neat for nee. The whole appear
enee of the fort is indicative of absolute incapacity
to: aoy defensive purposes. The city committees
hare done much to remedy existing grievances,
horioo:h is yet required to repair the broken
y oga the ruined and sandy embankments, the
Whw barracks, and the crumbling magazines.
f o rt Mifflin is the only defence in the State, and
.ho State authorities should take immediate means
wake the place adequate to the defence of a
great city like Philadelphia. After spending a
ihort hoar in viewing this place, we embarked and
p7cteeded on our journey to
Mrs Dm...swarm
We reached Fort Delaware at two o'clock. It
layered darkly upon Pea Patch island, midway
of the bay, with the spires of Salem, up the cove
to the east, and Delaware City directly to the
we st. The little steamer in which we were em•
barked had, meanwhile, been pitching and heav
irg upon the windy waters, and symptoms akin to
Fes:sickness were remarked among the passengers.
The boat was made fast to the wharf on the east
of the fort, and Captain Montgomery, of the Com
monwealth Artillery, received us at the gangway,
and bade us welcome.
The great size and strength of the structure
bare plainly discernible here. It loomed up from
the flat, Melly island; !Ong wails) of granite,
pierced with gun-ports, and cannon mounted at
each of the angles on the terraced summit Can
me also frowned dimly through sundry apertures
In the thick wall, and the beams of machinery
that appeared above the barracks and parapet!
evidenced the incomplete character of the work.,
lad the recent efforts to make them available for
Dupeses of defence. A sentinel, in tette regi
mentals, was pacing the terrace, and a second
yarded the bridge that spanned the moat direotly
is cur way leading, by means
of a gangway, to a
silly-port in the east flank of the fort. A low,
Dlid sea-wall, made up of rough stone, lined the
bank of the river, and without the walls,
scattered
over the flat, green island, were the real
daces of the commandant and officers, and
the barracks of a portion of the garrison. Willow
trees were arranged along the banks of the river,
end great heaps of hewn stone, piles of masonry,
dumber and of brick, were heaped in places over
the surface of the island The general appearance
cf the place inspired emotions of the picturesque
and the massive. The great citadel erected in the
centre of a green willowy island, with the waters
of she deep moat laving its foundation, was a rare
example of the artificial and powerful raised in
the midst of the blooming and the beautiful. This
iiiand comprises about eighty acres of ground,
moat of which lies four feet beneath the water
level. The embankments around it are from six
to eight feet high, Docks lead up from the river
or the sot and west and flood-gates are planted at
:heir beads, so that the entire surface of the island
made the citadel can be covered by the bay when
ever the exigencies of the garrison require complete
isolation in me citadel. When the fort shall have
been completed. (many years to come,) the em
bankments stint" encircle the island will oonsti
tilde wirer batteries, and will be provided with
ore hami'red guns additional to those employed
for the defence of the citadel. The buildings
without the fortress are ell constrooted of frame,
so that they one be fired at any moment. A moat
xenty feet in width and eight feet deep enoom
lanes the solid masonry of Fort Delaware. It is
tamed by a single atone bridge, on the west, eem
trial of three arches, and opening upon the huge
selpnort or gate-way—uncier the groat arch of
shich visitors find entrance and exit. A gang
eay plank on the east flank leads into a small
idly•eort, with double walls, opening upon the
'Nand tier or story.
The visitors, with Captain Montgomery, Colonel
tmdford, Messrs. Hector, Wetherill, and J. B,
!larding at the bead, formed in double column
apes the wharf, and proceeded to visit the quarters
•=i the recruits, and the drilling of Captain Gibson.
The former were arranged in the second story of a
lage frame building, not unlike a barn, and con
citing cf a double row of mattresses placed upon
The bare door. A few knee:emcee books, °endive,
le , were, huddled around the beds, and the ap
?marlin of things was not of the most seductive
character. The residence of Captain Gibson
has been appropriated of late to the conve
nience of Captain Montgomery, of the Common
wealth Artillery, Lieutenant Reynolds, of the
regular United States service, and eertain saber
elate officers. Five beautiful specimens of the
Minnie musk et, manufactured at Springfield, Mass ,
were here exhibited, capable of *triturate use at a
distance of twelve hundred yards. The beds of the
15.eera are made upon the bare floor, like those of
the recruits. Having remarked these places, the
'tutors proceeded around the fort, termed the
itone bridge on the east. and marched in order
ender the solid arched entrance direotly into the
fart. There were met here by Cs.pt A. A. Gibson,
ethemanding officer of the island, who welcomed
them to the place and used every effort in his
;ewer to make plain all noteworthy and obeoure
Matters. Capt. Gibson is a veteran of eleven bat
tles. He is a native of Freyburg, Oxford county,
Heine, and came to the fort in February last. His
earriotiem has been unimpeached, and to experi
cnted courage be adds military sagacity of sleigh
remitter. Hie labors in the service of the United
:antes army are evidenced in certain honorable
slam which he bears upon hie person His heel
led thumb have been mutilated by a cannon shot.
Having entered the fort, we found the volunteer
mien of tbe garrison drawn up in Military order
On the left of the entrance. These consisted of the
Commonwealth Artillery of Philadelphia, Capt.
lionlgomery commending. They are all young
nee, representing soma of the finest families in
:his city, and have exhibited, in the short period
their term of Service, a remarkable proficiency
tr. the elements of military tactics, and a !strong
desire to make themselves useful to the Govern.
ant and the Commonwealth. The lade went
through certain evolutions, on the entrance of the
visitors, in a creditable manner, and they were
eismiseed, after a few moments, to rejoin their
friends, many of whom took advantage of the
irlrecticn, by Councils, to visit them in their
.matters at Fort Delaware. fhe Commas'
=oath Artilleriete were - mustered into the
'-elted States service, on Tuesday, by Cap
:sin Gibson. They were all accepted. Captain
Gib:on stated to the excursionists yesterday, that
me had never known a body of recruits of like in
telligence, tact, and perseverance. Their term of
erica h ad been to him a glad occasion in the long
tenure of his military life, for they , joined to the
' 4 etlience of the regular recruits the quick-sight
edema and diecernment of the scholar. Many of
:hem are graduates of the High Scheel, of this city,
end others of the University of Pennsylvania. Mr.
Hacker, who accompanied the excursionista as
chairman of the Committee of Councils, has two
rem among the Artillerists, and Mr. Morton McMi
chael, also an excursionist, has a son in the ranks
We noticed among the volunteers. Messrs George
Seward, lineman Diamond, lame D- Bai l ers
William Sanderson, and George Wannemacher.
These lads, accustomed to all the luxuries and
recreations of wealth, intelligence, and refine-
taunt, have yet obeyed with alacrity the stern
telairements of military duty. Twelve of
.hem mount guard nightly, for three hours
tech, and some of the sentinels are consigned
to the long or east wharf, a most lonesome and
li ter,' Place, where, with the wind blowing almost
7 , 5. g11e, and the waves plashing against the piers,
hey make their still rounds through the still hours
With the regularity and accuracy of veterans The
tact that these gentlemen have been mustered by
9 old and tried officer into the regular service of
.31,5 United crates, is authority sufficient to
easa any ill-founded prejudice to their ability to
ape with the enemies of the republic with older
oast not braver men. The Commonwealth Artillery
will not long remain at Fort Delaware, but will be
'Tiered to other and more hazardous fields. They

fort is now provisioned with two • months' eupplies
for one hundred and fifty men, by the foresight of
Col. Bradford and Commissary James B. Watson,
of the municipal serelee. . The guns of Fort Dela
ware, more than one hundred in number, include
nineteen columbiade, five of which are ten•inch
guns, weighing 9,000 pounds eaoh (1.28-pound idiot)
capable of reaching any craft within three miles ;
fourteen eight inch columbiads, weighing 5,000
pounds each The weight of the belle for the latter
is nearly ono hundred pounds each. In addition
to these, there ?s a large quantity of ordinary guns,
howitzers, &o. A squad of the Artillerists are
daily employed in hoisting cannons to their places
on the parapet, and in a short time the whole
array of cannon in 'the citadel - will be fixed in
their respective places, and the recruits will com•
flume target practice With their cannon and
the ooltimbiads. We have no hesitation in saying
that at the present time Fort Delaware is oalou
lated to resist any foe, and the channels of the
Delaware are inaosessible to any hostile crew with
the guns of that fortress bearing upon them The
bastions or embrasures et this fort are ealoulated to
sweep into destruction any storming party. At
the angles of the fort the bastions protrude be
yond the line of walls, so as to command, through
the bastim port", any scaling party along the
whole line of flank. Thirty-four guns are already
mounted. To assail successfully this fortress of the
Delaware, en attacking foe must first sail up the
channel, with the terrible guns of the fortress
bearing upon them. If the foe should successfully
hassrd such a gauntlet, the island must be in
vaded In five minutes this could be laid under
water four feet deep. If even this terrible exi
gency should be evaded, the solid walls of the fort,
encompassed with a deep moat, are next to be
scaled. Should ladders be raised to the high para
pet of the citadel, the great guns of the bastions
are ready to sweep the assailants into destruction.
Should they, by any fortuitous circumstance,
enter the fort, its foundation can be flooded to the
depth of four feet. We see of no way in which
Fort Delaware could be successfully stormed or be
sieged. The citizens of both New Jersey and De
laware are loyal in any emergency. The people
of Delaware City, of whom there has been suspi
cion of late, held a meeting some days ago, and
compelled the factionists to swear allegiance to the
Constitution, and offered to Captain Gibson the
services of 150 soldiers to defend the Pea Patch
and the Delaware
The steam-tug Hero lay at the wharf of Fort
Delaware yesterday, and was employed during the
day in overhauling all outward bound vessels, to
discover contraband goods that might be concealed
on board. Fort Delaware is in many respects the
counterpart of Fort Sumpter, but larger and
stronger—in tact, almost utterly impregnable.
Twenty-six years have been required to bring it to
its present state of completeness, and probably ton
years of additional labor would scarcely make it
equal to all engineering requirements. The citi
zens of Philadelphia may congratulate themselves
that by the Vigilance of Safety and of the Com
mittee of Connails, Fort Delaware is now In the
fattest Renee equal to the protection of the port of
Philadelphia.

Under the command pro tem of Colonel James
T. Goodman, i 3 now organised, and hes volunteer
ed its services and been accepted. It consists of
some eight or tan of our best companies, whose
existence has been checked for the past ten years,
owing to the want of military spirit among its
members. The books are open for enrolment pre
paratory to being immediately mustered in. Owing
to two cavalry companies leaving the regiment,
there is a vacancy motoring which can be filled
on application to Colonel Goodman.
SECOND REGIMENT NATIONAL GUARD
The recruits for the second regiment are rapidly
enrolling tneir names. The members of the regi
ment consist of young men of respectability, and
are to be mastered for the space of three months.
As a large number of recruits were rejected from
the first regiment, on account of it being fall, it
would he well for them to join the second regi
ment, which also promises to be a fine company.

.tioME • A.VrfiNgION !—Colonel PleaSala
ton, Commander- in-Chief of the Borne Guards, has is
sued an order fixing the uniform to be worn by the gen
t'emen who have enrolled themselves sa Rome Guards.
This dress will be worn while on duty ; but at other
times the Guards, emulating the example set by all
other males between four years of age and ninety, will
wear the elegant and comfortable garments made at
the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Rocklitil it Wilson,
Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut street, above Sixth.
tituetanAL fiCore.—All doubts of the loyalty of
this war. Hearted veteran may be set at rest. fin man
perhaps in the country is more vigilant, and for his age
more untiring in hie labors in the present emergency,
than General Poott. He is now in Washington super
intending the preparations for the defence of the city,
and yet having an eye to the direction of all the military
movements of the Government. When peace is again
restored, we suggest that be should he presented with a
fashionable suit of clothes from the new store of Gran
vas Btokes, 609 Chestnut street, where each garment
acid' insures a gift of use and value.
