A ROLAND ton ATI OLITRR TA5ICEB LOVC vs. R FBI Li LOVK. Tba following letter from a rebel lady to her relative, a General In the rebel army, was found at Port F.oyal among the eOects left by the rebels In their hasty flight aTter the bombardment. It was forwarded by lie v. Mr. Riier, Chaplain of the N. Y. 'Oib Regi tnent, to his family in tbis place, as a relic of tbat Important and brilliant achievement which be witnessed from the deck of the Van. derbilt. A most singular coincidence Is the fact tbat the rebel lady quotes some extracts from a tender epistle written by Ellen, a Yankee girl, to her "own dear John," which be, in big haaly retreat from Manassas, luTl behind, A2d which a rebel Captain forwarded to bis wife, as a souvenir of that unfortunate race. "Poor Kmelie'a" epistle seouis to have afforded the rebel ladies considerable amuse ment, especially ber innocent simplicity in regard to John's moral, a sqneamisbness which soulhero belles huve learned to over look. Joho.no doubt, was a genuine yankee and his "composition" was, perhaps, some of bis own patent medicine, lint Bl'ler all, we do not think ''Ellen" has made much ofl of "F-milie," thanks to our gallant Navy; nnd when she finds that the Yankees have posses' sion of ber letter, sho will he apt to luugh out of the wrong side of her mouth.

You will not be surprised to learn that, in the peculiar exigencies of the times, our intercourse with foreign nations has been ntlendet with profound solicitude, chiefly turning upm our owu domestic affairs A disloyal porting of the American people bave, during the Whole year, been cugaged in an attempt li divide and destroy the Union. i A ualion which endures factious domestic division is exposedlo disrespect abroad, and one party, if not both, is sore sooner or later to invite foreign intervention. Nations thus tempted to inlerler, ate not always able to resist t he counsels ol seeming expediency end ungenerous ambition, although measures a dopled under acelffi'Rrl'uviices seldom fail to b" unloitiiuate and injurious to those adopt ing them. The dielnyni c't;Zns of the United States,' who have ollered the ruin of our couulry in return for' the aid and comfort which they have invoked abroad, have received less pa Iroiiauu aud encouragement than tbey prohn- bly expected.

The recommendation of the Secretary for an organization of the luilitia upon a un.lortn basis, is a subject id ilul importance to the future safety of the country, und is commen ded to the sen us attention of Congress. The large uddilion to the regular army in connection with the defection that has so considerably diminished the number of its ofiicers, gives peculiar importance to bis sospension of payment nf the pensions of such persons bpon proof of their disloyalty. I recommend thai Congress authorize tt"t officer to cause the names of such perauns to be stricken from the pension rolls. Tha relations of the Government with the Indian tribes bave been greatly disturbed by the insurrection, especially In the Southern Superintendence, and in that nf New Mexico.
