Given under my hand and the great seal of the State of Maryland, at the city of Frederick, this 14th day of May, 1861. Proclamation of General Butler General Butler yesterday afternoon issued the following proclamation :--- . DEPARTMENT OF A NNAPOLIS, Federal Hill, May 14, 1861. A detachment of the forces of the Federal Government under my coin-. mand have occupied the city of Balti more for the purpose among other things of enforcing respect and obedi ence to the laws as well as of the State if requested thereto by the civil au thorities as of the United States laws, which are being violated within its limits by some malignant and traitor ous men; and in order to testify the acceptance by the Federal Government of the fact that the city and all the well-intention portion ofits inhabitants are loyal to the Union and the Consti tution, and are to be so regarded and treated by all. To the end, therefore, that all mis understanding of the purposes of the government may, be prevented, and to set at rest all unfounded, false and se ditious rumors, to relieve all apprehen sions, if any are felt, by the well dis posed portion of the community, or to make it thoroughly understood by all traitors, their alders and abettors, that their rebellious acts must cease, I hereby, by the authority vested in me as commander of the Department of Annapolis, of which the city of Balti more forms a part, do now command and make known that no loyal and well-disposed citizen will be disturbed in his lawful occupation or business; that private property will not be in terfered with by men under my com mand, or allowed to be interfered with by others, except in so far as it' may be used to afford aid and comfort to those in rebellion against the govern ment, whether here or elsewhere, all which property, munitions of war, and that fitted to aid and support the re bellion, will be seized and held subject to confiscation ; and therefore all man ufacturers of arms and munitions of war, are hereby requested to report to me forthwith, so that the lawfulness of their occupations may be known and understood, and all misconstruc tion of their doings avoided: No transportation from the city to the rebels, of articles fitted to aid and sup port troops in the field will be permit ted, and the fact of such transporta tion after the publication of this proc lamation will be taken and received as proof of illegal intention on the part of the consigners, and render the goods liable to seizure and confisca tion. The government being ready to receive all such stores and supplies, arrangements will be made to contract for them immediately, and the owners and manufheturers of such articles of equipment and clothing and munitions of war and provisions, are. desired to put themselves in communication with the commanding general, in order that their work shops may be employed for loyal purposes ; and the artisans of the city resume and carry on their wonted profitable occupation. The acting assistant Quartermaster and Commissary of Subsistence of the United States here stationed, has been instructed to procure and furnish at fair prices, forty thousand rations for the use of the army of the United States, and further supplies will be drawn from the city to the full extent of its capacity, if the patriotic and loyal men choose so to furnish supplies. All assemblages (except the ordina ry police) of armed bodies of men other than those regularly organized and commissioned by the State of Ma ryland, and acting under the orders of the Governor thereof, for drill and other purposes, are forbidden within the Department. All officers of the militia of Maryland having command within the limits of the Department are requested to re port, through their superior. officers, fOrthwith to the General in command, so that he may be able to know and distinguish the regularly co imnissioned and loyal troops of Maryland from armed bodies who may claim to be such. The ordinary opcations of the cor poration government of tho city of Baltimore, and of the city authorities, will not be interfered with, but on the contrary will be aided by all the pow er at the command of the General, upon proper call being made; and all such authorities arc cordially invited to co-operate with the General in com mand to carry out the purposes set forth in the proclamation, so that the city of Baltimore may be shown to the country to be what she is in fact—pat riotic and loyal to tho Union, the Con stitution and the laws. No flag, banner ensign, or device of the so-called confederate States, or any of them, will be permitted to be raised or shown in this Department, and the exhibition of either of them by evil disposed persons will be deemed and taken to be evidence of design to afford and comfort the enemieS of the country. To make it the more apparent that the government of the United States by fhr more relies upon loyalty, pat riotism and zeal of the good citizens of Baltimore and vicinity, than upon any exhibition of force calculated to intimidate them into that obedience to the laws which the government doubts not will be paid from the inherent re spect and love of order. The com manding General has brought to the city with him, of the many thousand troops in the immediate neighborhood which might be at once concentrated here, scarcely more than an ordinary guard, and until it fails him he will continue to rely upon that loyalty and patriotism of the citizens of Maryland which has never yet been found want ing to the Government in time of need. The general in command desires to greet and treat, in this part of his De partment, all the citizens thereof as friends and brothers, having a common purpose, a common loyalty, and a com mon country. Any infractures of the laws by the troops under his command, or any disorderly or unsoldierlike con duct, or any interference with privato property, he desires to have reported to him immediately; and he pledges him self that if any soldier so far forgets himself as to break those laws that he has sworn to defend and enforce, he shall be most rigorously dealt with. The general believes that if the sug gestions and requests contained in this proclamation be faithfully carried out by the co-operation of all good and Union-loving citizens, and peace and quiet, and the certainty of future peace and quiet, aro thus restored, business will assume its accustomed channels, *trade take the place of dullness and inactivity, efficient labor displace idle ness, and Baltimore will be iu fact what she is entitled to be, in the first rank of the commercial cites of the na tion. Given at Baltimore, the day and the year first above written. BENJ. P. BUTLER, Brigadier General, Commanding the• Department of Annapolis. E. G. Parker, Lieutenant Colonel, Aid de-Camp. General Butler bad a long interview, prior to the issuing of the foregoing proclamation, with the Mayor and sev eral members of the City Council. It is said that the conversation showed that the General was more intimately acquainted with affairs here than many supposed. During the afternoon, Gen. Butler made a formal demand on the city au thorities for the delivery of a quantity of arms stored in the warehouse of John S. Gutings, at the corner of Gray and Second streets. Marshal Kane refused to deliver up the arms without an order from the Mayor was produced by the officer.— Finally, after some altercation, an or der was procured and the arms wore brought out, making fifteen dray loads. About two-thirds of the fire arms were carbines and the rest flint lock mus kets. There was also a largo quanti ty of pikes. A guard of Federal troops was placed over the arms, and escorted by a large number of police, they were taken to the fort. Governor Hicks replies to Mayor Brown's charge that ho authorized the destruction of the railroad bridges.— lie denies the charge, and says, the Mayor's communication and tho ac companying certificates have induced any person to doubt my true position in the premises, and respectfully ask a suspension of judgment, until a suffi cient time be afforded me to collect the necessary proof and show, as I shall be able to do, most conclusively, that the destruction of the bridges was a part of the conspiracy of those acting against the Government, and was known and proclaimed in other parts of the State, before the destruc tion was consummated, but any person who knows my opinion of George P. Kane and Enoch L. Lowe, will at once admit that I would, be very slow to assent to any propOsition emanating, from or endorsed by them. Their in troduction into my Chamber at a late hour of the night to urge my consent to the perpetration of an unlawful act was not calculated to convince me of the propriety or necessity of that act. Men do not readily take counsel of their enemies. The city is quiet this morning—num bers of Massachusetts and New York regiments are strolling through the streets wholly unarmed. They are generally in couples and have full con fidence as they assert in the loyalty of the city. Rumors are afloat that Gen. Butler will make other arrests to-day of those in high positions. The first Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers arrived hero this morning, under command of Samuel Yoho. The volunteers aro accompanied by heavy batteries manned by regular troops from the Carlisle,barracks. The whole regiment will bo stationed along the line of the road. Our city is now guarded on all sides by the military. The St. Louis Arsenal---Row it was Stripped by an Illinois Volunteer. [Special Deepatrsh to the Chicago Tribune.] SPRINGFIELD, April 28 I am now able to give a complete and accurate narrative of the transfer of the twenty-one thousand stand of arms from St. Louis to Springfield. Capt. James H. Stokes, of Chicago, late of the Regular Army, volunteered to undertake the perilous mission; and Gov. Yates placed in his hands the re quisition of the Secretary of War for ten thousand muskets. ' Capt. Stokes went to St. Louis and made his way as rapidly as possible to the Arsenal. Ho found it surrounded by an im mense mob, and the postern gates all closed. His utmost efforts to pene trate the crowd were, for a long time, unavailing. At last he managed to attract the attention of ono of the guards by whom he sent for the Cap tain of the Company stationed at that part of the Arsenal yard, and to him he made known that he was a bearer of dispatches from the War Depart ment. With some difficulty he was admitted without attracting the par ticular notice of the crowd. On reach ing tho Arsenal proper, he learned that Major Rayner, of the Ordnance Department, had just been ordered to Leavenworth, whither he bad gone on the preceding day. He had been su perseded by Major. Callender, an old class mate of Capt. Stokes, at West Point. A council was immediately held between Capt. Stokes, Maj. Cal lender and Capt. Lyon, the latter be ing the officer in command of the rag ular troops and volunteers. The re quisition was shown. Captain Lyon doubted the possibility of executing it. He said the Arsenal was surroun ded by a thousand spies, and every movement - was - wittelreel-rtell-Yerperted-! to the headquarters of the secession ists, who could throw an overpowering I force upon them at any moment.— Capt. Stokes represented that every hour's delay was rendering the cap ture of the Arsenal more certain; and the arms must be removed to Illinois, now or never. Maj. Callender agreed with him and told him to take them at his own time and in his own way. This was Wednesday night. Captain , Stokes had a spy in the camp of the secessionists, whom he mot at inter ! vals in a certain place in the city. On Thursday he received information that Gov. Jackson had ordered two thous and armed men down from Jefferson City, whose movements could only contemplate a seizure of the Arsenal, by occupying the heights around it and planting batteries thereon. The job would have been an easy one.— They had already planted one battery on the St. Louis levee, and another at Powder Point, a short distance below the Arsenal. Capt. stokes immedi ately telegraphed to Alton to have the steamer City of Alton drop clown to the Arsenal landing, about midnight. He then returned to the Arsenal and commenced moving the boxes of guns, weighing some three hundred pounds each, down to the lower floor. About seven hundred inen were employed in the work. He then took five hundred Kentucky flint-lock . muskets, which had been sent there to be altered, and sent them to be placed on a steamer as a blind to cover his real movements. Tho Secessionists nabbed them at once and raised a perfect Bedlam over the capture. A large portion of the out side crowd left the Arsenal when this movement was executed ; and Captain Lyon took the remainder who were lying around as spies, and locked them up in his guard house. About eleven o'clock, the steamer City of Alton came along side; planks were shoved out from the windows to the main deck, and the boxes slid down. When the ten thousand were safely on board, Capt. Stokes went to ,Capt. Lyon and Major Callender, and urged them, by the most pressing appeals, to let him empty the Arsenal. They told him to go ahead and take what ever ho wan ted. Accordingly he took eleven thousand more muskets, five hundred rifle carbines, five hundred revolvers, one hundred and ten thousand musket cartridges, to say nothing of the can non and a large quantity of miscella neous accoutrements, leaving only sev en thousand muskets in the Arsenal, to arm the St. Louis volunteers. When the whole wore on board, about two o'clock Friday morning, the order was again given, by the captain of the steamer, to cast off. Judge of the consternation of all hands when it was found that she would not move. The arms bad been piled in great quantities around the engines to pro tect them against the battery on the levee, and the great weight had fas tened the bows of the boat firmly on a rock, which was tearing a bolo through the bottom at every turn of the wheels. A man of less nerve than Capt. Stokes would have gone crazy on the spot. He called the arsenal men on board, and commenced moving the boxes to the stern. Fortunately when about two hundred boxes had been shifted, the boat fell away.from the shore and floated in deep water. " Which way ?" said Capt. Mitchell of the steamer. " Straight to Alton in the regular channel," replied Captain Stokes. " What if we are attackedr said Captain Mitchell. " Then we will fight I" said Capt. Stokes: "What, if we aro overpowered?" said Capt, M. " Run her to the deepest part of the river and sink her," replied Captain S. " I'll do it," was the heroic answer of Captain M., and, away they went past the secession battery, past the entire St. Louis levee, and on to Alton, in the regular channel, where they ar rived at five o'clock in the morning.. - When the boat touched her landing, Capt. Stokes, fearing pursuit -by-some two or three of the secession military companies, by which the city of St. Louis is disgraced, ran to the Market House and rang the fire-bell. The citizens came flocking pell-mell to the river, in all sorts of habiliments. Capt. Stokes informed them of the situation of things, and pointed out the freight cars. Instantly men, women and chil dren hoarded the steamer, seized the freight and clambered up the levee to the cars. Rich and poor tugged to gether with might and main for two hours, when the cargo was all deposi ted in the cars, and the train moved off, amid three enthusiastic cheers for Springfield. . When Capt. Stokes reached this city, he was so exhausted by sixty hours of incessant labor and excitement, that he fell asleep while endeavoring to re count his adventures to Judge Trum bull. Secession has now received its fatal blow not only in St. Louis but throughout Missouri. When it became known that the arms were gone, the St. Louis Repub lican began to preach peace and neu trality, the minute-men ceased brawl ing for Jeff. Davis in the streets, 'and Gov. Jackson began to advise against calling the State Convention together. While Capt. Stokes was taking the arms, the Secessionists were planning to capture the Government powder house, about a mile below. It is re ported here that they had seized it be fore they became aware that the arse nal was emptied. Army Regulations The following from the army regu lations is interesting: The commissioned officers are oblig ed to clothe,equip and arm themselves, (with a sword,) at their own expense, the pay received by them being inten ded to cover all outlays. It is a mat ter of personal choice with the officer whether to carry any arms, (pistols, &c.,) beyond the regulation sword. When it is necessary to employ the army at work on fortifications, in sur veys, in cutting roads, and other con stant labor of not less than ten days. the non-commissioned officers and sol diers so employed aro enrolled as extra duty men, and are allowed 25 cents a day when employed as laborers and teamsters, and 30 cents a day when employed as mechanics, at all stations East of the Rocky Mountains; and 35 and 50 cents a day, respectively, at all stations West of those mountains. Enlisted men of the Ordnance and Engineer Departments, and artificers of Artillery aro not entitled to this al lowance when employed at their ap propriate work. -;hull-not.--zarnixacILian hours in summer. and eight in winter. Soldiers are paid in proportion for any greater number of hours they aro em• ployed each day. Summer is consid ered to have commenced on the Ist of April, and winter on the Ist of Octo ber. The ration is of a pound of pork or bacon, or 11 pounds of fresh or salt beef; 18 ounces of bread or flour, or 12 ounces of hard bread, or 11 pounds of corn meal; and at the rate, to 100 rations, of 8 quarts of peas or beans,or in lieu thereof, of 10 pounds of rice; 0 pounds of coffee; 12 pounds of sugar; 4 quarts of vinegar; 1$ pounns of tal low, or 11 of adamantine, or one pound of sperm candles; 4 pounds of soap, and 2 quarts of salt. On a campaign, or on marches, or on board of transports, the ration of hard bread (sea biscuit) is one pound. Soldiers are expected to preserve, die tribute and cook their own subsistence. All enlisted men are entitled to• one ration a day. No provision is made for the pay of chaplains. If they are sent with the regiments from any State, the State Authorities will have to fix their rate of compensation and make provision for their payment by the State. Hospital Conveniences The Providence Journal publishes the following directions which Major Anderson lately gave some ladies,who consulted him respecting hospital con veniences: The ladies had better not attempt to furnish articles of food for the sick and wounded. It would require thousands of dollars in the first place, besides the hospitals are all supplied with what is necessary. However, if the ladies would furnish the following articles they would add greatly to the comfort of the poor fellows who may be sick and. suffering: A large supply of Canton flannel night shirts, large and long. Green silk eye shades with, elastic bands. Common slippers of largo sizo. Hospital knapsacks—they can be found at No. 473 Eighth avenue, Now York. Field-stretchers—Alexander, No. 48 Webster street, makes the wood-work, and Tyler, No. 25 Bast Broadway, the, canvas part. Ho (Major Anderson) says no one can know but ono who has been with an army in the field, the great comfort and blessing the above-named articles are to poor suffering humanity. . , HOSPITAL Surpram.—Miss D.
