In another column will bo found an article taken from the Richmond En irer, setting forth 11% retaliatory measures adopted by the miscreants of the South, for the purpose of inter rupting our government in the punish ment of their pirates caught at sea.— Col. Corcoran is to receive the same fate as the arch-demon Smith, sentenced to death in Philadelphia, and thirteen others to share the same end for thir teen,rebel pirates convicted and con deMted in New York.• Vas ever a more diabolical scheme concocted by mortal man ? Are they savages or are they civilized human beings? The brave and fearless Corcoran's life de pending upon the fate of a traitor to the land that gave him birth,—a trai tor to the government, that has nour ished and fed him since the day he left his mother's knee. It is inhuman and unnatural. Col. Corcoran is to die for no other crime than that of defending his country, which must be a heinous offense in the eyes of the rebels, and Smith to die for attempting to destroy the government he has sworn to pro tect, defend, and cherish during his life. We do not know what disposi tion will be made of the matter. We leave it to wiser heads than ours to adjust. We hope, although we would deplore the death of any of the brave men whO have been chosen as sacrifi ces for the lives of the condemned in oar, hands, that they will not be al towed to go unpunished. LOCALS.—The patrol guard was re lieved from duty in this place on Mon day. They Were sent back to camp on Wednesday morning. The soldiers are having a gay old time in town now, as . there are 'none to molest or utak.° them afraid.—Col. Murray re iceived additional :orders on Tuesday evening:fro .

Squads'of soldiers can be seen moving about. the streets morning; amen, and night—The uniforms for Col. Lewis' regiment arrived this week, !and were distributed on Wednesday. —We are pleased to see our old friend, Capt. David "Jones, of Tyrone, at his , post again. The Captain was down with the typhoid fever for two or three weeks. He is every inch a soldier, and will do good service when he gets amongst the rebels.—They tell us this is Court week, but for the life of us, we would , not know it, were it not for the ringing of the Court House bell.—Waste of powder—the Hollidaysburg Standard's column and throe quarters on the National Foun dry question.

Some twenty log huts of good size have been put up by the men, and several more wore rising, but the order for breaking up the camp put a stop to all improvements. For winter quarters, Camp Crosman could be made more comfortable than any other in the State, and at but a trifling ex pense. CAMP CUMIN.—Wo paid this camp a visit on Monday last, and were sur prised to find it in rather a loose con dition. There were many sick in the hospitals and in tents in the neighbor hood of the camp ground. We were informed that twenty-five men belong ing to one company were on the sick list. Camp Curtin, right under the eye of the Governor, should certainly be in a more healthy condition than it is. AND AGAIN.-D. P. Gwin has just opened several more boxes of new goods.

Our Regiment (Fifty-fifth) was marched down to the capital yester day evening, to -receive the Regimen tal flag, and were told that we would leave for South Carolina inside of twenty-four hours, but the time is up and we have not left yet, though we expect to get off within twenty-four hours now.

News from the Rebel States Ni"lN YORK, Nov. 20.—A special tle. spatch to the New York Tribune from Fortress Monroe, dated yesterday, states that Lieut. Wordon released by the rebel*. says the intelligence of the arrest of Mason and Slidell had caused great excitement among the rebels, who rejoiced in the prospect of retalia tion by England. Two regiMents from Georgia and South Carolina had abandoned Roa noke Island, on the North Carolina coast, blown up their battery and gone home. The rebel Congress met at Richmond on the 18th, but transacted no business, being without a quoruni. The rebels are strengthening their main battery at Sewall s Point antici pating an attack. Important Arrests at Baltimore BALTIMORE, Nov. 20.----Somewhat of a sensation was produced this morn ing, in the western section of the city, by the Provost Marshal sending a largo force of Police to Miller's Hotel, at the corner of German and Paca streets, seizing the whole establishment, with all its contents, including a large num ber of horses and contents of the bar room, safe and vault. The object of these movements is said to be to prostrate the mail ar rangements of the rebel sympathizers here. It is supposed that from this hotel there has been a regular communica tion kept up with teams to West River and thence to Virginia. Miscellaneous War News. The Richmond Whig, of the 9th, says the confcderate•army in Virginia is to be re-organized. The State is constituted a department," comprising three armies, viz : Of the Potomac, the valley, and Acquia, under chief com mand of General Johnston. Beaure gard is to command the army of the Potomac, Gen. 'Thomas Jackson that of the valley, and Gen. • Holmes the army of Acquia. (From the Fort Smith (Ark.) Times, October 23.] We have information from reliable sources that, after a sixty days' cam paign in Kansas and Missouri, the Mc- Culloch division will fall back into Ar kansas. The quartermaster has , ad yertised for the building of stables to accommodate 5,000 army horses and a largo'number of mules; also, for 100,- 000 bushels of corn and 3,750 tons of hay, to forage these animals. KANSAS . CITY, Nov. lB:—Capt. nen, of Colonel Jennison's force, who left hero on Saturday, for Pleasant Hill, succeeded in capturing. twenty-two wagons and two hundred oxen, belong ing to the Government train reported burnt by the rebels of that place. A rebel force oftwelvo hundred, men, encamped three . Miles from 'Pleasant Hill, will be attacked to-night. LEAVENIVORTII CITY, Nov. I.B.—The steanaer - Sunshine arrived heie yester day from St. Louis. A lot of commis sary stores and wagons, destined for Fort Leavenworth, were taken from her by a gang of rebels at Waverle •; under command of Joe Shelby. WASHINGTON, NOV. diplomatic circles, where the act of Corn. Wilkes was at first very generally condemned, the tone of remark has been materially modified. Numerous citations have been produced from high authorities in support of the act. By direction of the Government, the oath not to bear arms against the United States has been administered to twenty-nine rebel prisoners, at the Old Capitol. Another has signified his desire to take the oath of allegiance. These proceedings are preliminary to their release for an equal number who have been or may be released by the rebel authorities. Lieut. Fairfax, who arrested Mason and Slidell, is a loyal Virginian, a kins man' of ex-Senator Mason, and a de scendent of Lord Fairfax, who em ployed Washington, <i•hen he 'was a young man, to survey the immense Fairfax estates. The Springfield, Mo., correspondent of the New York TVo•ld says : `` It has long been the deliberate con viction of many soldiers that Fremont's march to New Orleans, by way of Southwest Missouri, was a " wild-goose chase." It is fortunate that ho was not permitted to march his brave army further into tlfe enemy's country, sav ing him, as it does, from the responsi bility of a succession of unlooked-for disasters and hardships, which could hardly fail to ruin his command. VIRGINIA ASKING FOR PROTECTION. —The news from the expedition to Accomae is. cheering. Those in arms lay down their weapons and ask for protection, while the inhabitants joy fully- hail - the arrival of Union troops. These aro gratifying results, and simi lar will be the results in almost every section of the South, as the Federal forces continue successfully to assert the supremacy of our laws. ST. Louts, Nov. 19.—Gen. Hunter has relinquished the command, and Gen.flalleek has assumed the command of this department. DARNESTOWN, Nov. 18.—A prelimi nary meeting by many of the commis sioned officers was held on Saturday night, to form a Masonic Lodge for this division. Many distinguished men were present. Everything in the shape of locomo tives, machinery, &e., belonging to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad have been removed by the rebels and taken in the vicinity of Winchester. Even the double track, for 20 miles, has been torn . up. A rumor has been circulated in camp, that Gen. Banks, with his com mand, will be ordered to some more active duty this week. FROM TUE UPPER POTOMAC.—Mr. Givens, of Philadelphia, who came down from Poolesville this morning, gives a most favorable account of the health of our troops along the line.— They were all anxious to advance.— The Pennsylvania regiments have all their positions. The regiment of Col. Owen is reserved for the bayonet eh urge ge Cost of the Late Battle. The Wabash fired, dating the .entire action, 900 shots, being all 8, 9,10 and 11-inch shells, with the exception of a few rifled cannon projectiles of a new pattern, and which were used simply as a matter of experiment. The,'Sus quehanna fired 500 shots, the Bienvillo 185, and the average of the gunboats and the other smaller ships may prob ably be set down at 150 each. There were, in all, 16 vessels engaged on our side, and probably from all of them were fired not far from 3,500 shot and shell at the two forts, Walker and Beauregard, the four gun battery and the three steamers. The average cost of each shot, reck oning shell, round shot, and rifled can non projectiles of peculiar make, and taking into account the value of the powder used to fire them, may be set down at about $B. Thfis the burned powder and broken shell, iron, of the battle'of Port Royal maY be set down as having cost the country not less than $28,000. Reckoning, then, says the Now York Tribune, a few items of this' battle, beginning with the im mense cost of this fleet, which has been preparing since August last, the pay of the soldiers, the value of their food, and the expense of the two lost ves sels on a very moderato, scale, the en tire cost is about as follows: Rent of the vessels up to this time, say - - - $3,600,000 Pay of soldiers, &c., up to this time - - - Value of ratiorm consumed up to this time Value of clothing worn out up to this time - - Value of powder burned - Value of the Governor and Peerless, lost •on the Cat scale, $30,000 - - Total - The Cost of the War on Both Sides. (From the Sm./moult Iteruhlteatt, Nov. 54 The expenses of the Confederate States during the last six months are acknowledged to be fifty millions of dollars, and the war expenses of the United States, for 'the* sane time,'are acknowledged to be two hundred mil lions of dollars,. The, number of mon slain in battle, in the &then or twenty actions, great and small, that have ta ken place between the two belligerents since the war opened in the taking of Fort Sumpter,cannot be easily estima ted, but, as near as we can learn, it is in the proportion of about ono to five, and may be set down in round numbers at 2,000 Confederates and 10,000 Fed er*. This shows that every Hessian killed by us has cost the Confederate Government $5,000 dollars, and that every Southerner killed in battle has cost the Federal Government the. round sum of $lOO,OOO. The Southern States can raise about one million and a half of fighting men.•' To kill' off these at the above rate—and killing is proba bly the only- way in -Which they can be subdued—will cost the Federal Go vernment one hundred and fifty thou. sand millions of dollars ! Would it hot be cheaper, as well as more humane, in Mr.Lincoln' and his Cabinet, to make arrangements for trying to buy us out? The Legality of the Action of Com- The opinion that the act of Commo dore Wilkes was fully justified by the usages of all civilized nations, and by well-settled principles of international law, is confirmed by numerous prece dents, and by quotations from the writings of reliable authors. Chitty, a standard English law wri ter, says, in his " Law of Nations," page 147: On the same principle on which con trabands of war and infractions of blockade have been interdicted in the commerce of neutaals—l mean the principle that a neutral has no right to relieve a belligerent—it has been held that other acts of illegal assistance afforded to s an enemy expose to confis cation the property of the neutral con cerned in them. Among these, none is of a more injurious nature than time con veyance of hostile despatches. The mis chievous consequence of such a service is indefinite, infinitely beyond the effect of any contraband that can be conveyed. The carrying of two or three cargoes of stores is necessarily an assistance of a limited nature; but in the transmission of despatches may be conveyed the entire plan of a campaign, that my defeat all the projects of the other belligerent in that quarter of the world. Again, Mr. Chitty says : Equally intolerable is the employ ment of a neutral ship as a transport for the private men, or for the officers of the enemy. * Any one of these acts being brought to light, there can remain no doubt respecting the unfidr ness of that specific transaction. * Upon the breaking out of a war—here ho quotes Sir William Scott—it is the right of neutrals to carry on their ac customed trade, with the exception of the particular cases of a trade to block aded places, or in contraband articles, (in both of whie'z cases their property is liable to be condemned,) and oftheir ships being liable to visitation and search, in which case, however, they aro en titled to freight and expenses. Mr. Phillimore, " Advocate of her Majesty in her office of Admiralty and Judge of the Cinque Ports," says, iu his " Commentaries on International Law," that it is competent to a belliger ent to stop the ambassador of his enemy on his passafe.—(Puo 303.) On page 370 he says SEC. 273; " Official communication from an official on the affairs of a bel ligerent Govern ment are such despatch es as impress' a hostile character on the carriers of them. The mischievous consequences of such a service cannot be estimated, and extend far beyond the effect of any contraband that can be conveyed ; for it is manifest that by the carriage of such despatches the most important operations of a bellig erent army may be forwarded or ob structed. In general cases of contra band the quantity of the article , car ried may be a material circumstance but the smallest despatch may, serve to turn the fortunes of war in flavor of a particular belligerent." See. 274. " The penalty is confiscation of the ship which conveys, the despatches and of the cargo.' Chancellor Kent, in speaking of the right of search, saya r inhis—Commen-• taries, volUme one, page 154: All writers upon the law of nations, and the highest authorities, acknowl edge the right, in time of war, as rest ing upon sound principles of public jurisprudence and upon, the institutes and practice of all great Maritime Pow ers ; and if, upon making the search, the vessel be found employed in the contraband trade, or in carryins ene my's property, or troops or, de.spatehes, she is liable to be taken and brought in for adjudication before a prize court. Wheaton in his work on the law of nations, coincides with the views of the other publicists whom we have quoted. He says, (page 529:) Of the same nature with the carry ing of contraband goods is thetranspor tation of military persons or despatches in the service of the enemy. g: * * As to the number of military persons neces sary to subject the vessel to confisca tion, it is difficult to define, since fewer persons of high quality and character may be of much more importance Hum a much greater number of persons of lower con dition. To carry a veteran general, under some circumstances, might be a much more noxious act than the con veyance of a whole regiment. The consequence of such assistance' are greater, and, therefore, the belligerent has a stronger right to prevent, and punish it. Nor is it material, in the judgment of the prize court, whether the master be ignorant of the service in which he is engaged. It is deemed sufficient if there has been an injury arising to the belligerent from the em ployment in which the vessel is found. * * Thefraudulently carrying the de spatches of the enemy will also subject the neutral vessel in which they are transpor ted to capture and confiscation. 030,000 220,000 165,000 28,000 The case of despatches (continues Wheaton) is a service which, in what ever degree it exists, can only be con sidered in one character---aS cm act of the most hostile nature. The offence of fraudulently carrying despatchesin the service of the enemy, being then, greater than that of carrying, contra band, under any circumstances, it be comes absolutely necessary, as well as just, to resort to some other penalty than that inflicted in cases of contra band. The confiscation of:the noxious article would be ridiculous''when ap plied to despatches. The vehicle in which they. are carried must,,therefore be.corifiscateth" , . ,j IGO,OOO - $4,903,000 The _Aral' fpnal Intelligencer expresses the following' dear and' nnequivoeal opinions, and fully sustains, them by some of the quotations, we hayo given above, and others ofequal : Those, therefore, who are not al ready familiar with tho principles in volved in the proceeding of Captain Wilkes, will learn with interest that it is fully justified by the rules of internation al law, as those rules have been expound ed by the most illustrious British jurists and compiled by the most approved wri ters on the Laws of Nations. So far from having transcended the powers with which be was clothed , by that code, Capt. Wilkes did not exhaust the full measure of his authority, for he not only had an undoubted right to arrest "these ~, Nmbassadors!'„ of. the Confederate Government on their pas sage to Europe, but might have justly captured the vessel on which they wore found, and brought her into port to be condemned as lawful prize. The points of public law involved in modore Wilkes. the case, and on which it turns, are as follows : 1. The rights visiting and search ing merchant ships on the high seas, whatever be the ships, their cargoes, or their destinations, Is an incontesta ble right of the lawfully-commissioned cruisers of a belligerent nation. Being a purely belligerent right, essential to the capture of enemy's property and the discovery of contraband of war on board of neutral vessels, it is, from its very nature and definition, incompe tent to a state of peace, but accrues to each belligerent on the outbreak of war. 2. To engage in the transportation of military persons, bearers of des patches, and despatches them Selves, is of the same nature with the carrying of contraband goods, and a vessel so engaged in the service of one belliger ent is subject to capture and confisca tion by the other. 3. A belligerent may lawfully arrest an ambassador of the adverse belliger ent, if found at sea in a neutral vessel on his passage, nud therefore before he has arrived in the neutral country, or has assumed the functions of his office . near the Government to which he is accredited. But, when be has arrived, and been admitted in his official rela tion, ho is protected by his representa tive and international character. 4. The fact that the voyage is made to a neutral port does not change the legal character of the transaction, where contraband of war—including, of course, military persons, despatches, and their bearers—is found on a neu tral vessel. It is alio worthy of remark that the declaration of war by England against Iluesia, of the 28th March, 1854, con tains the following language: "It is impossible for Her Majesty to forego her right of seizing articles con traband of war, and of preventing neu trals front bearing enemies' despatches." And in the recent proclamation of neutrality, of May 18,1861, made with reference to the very war now going on between the Government of the United States and the rebels of the South, the following language was used by the British Ministers: - - And we do hereby warn all our lov ing subjects, and all persons whatso ever entitled to our protection, that if any of them shall presume, in con ! tempt of this our royal proclamation and of cur high displeasure, to do any acts in derogation of their duty as s4jects of a neutral sovereign in the said contest, or in violation or contra vention of the law of nations in that behalf - , as for example and more espe cially by entering into the military service of either of the said contending parties, * 4 ' or by carrying officers, soldiers, despatches, arms, military stores, or materials, or any article or articles considered and deemed to be con traband of tear, according to the law or modern usage of 'lotions, for the use or service of either of the said contending parties—all persons so offending will incur, and be liable to the several pen alties and penal consequences by the said statute, or • by the law of nations ' in that behalf imposed, or denounced. And we do hereby declare that 'MI our subjects and persons entitled to our . protection who- may misconduct them selves in' the premises will do soat their' peril, and of their own- wrong,. and that they will in no wise obtain any pro tection from us against any liabilities or penal consequences, but will, on the con trary, incur our high displeasure by such misconduct., The Retaliatory Measures, Interesting Correspondence—Names of the Prisoners Selected to Await the Fate of the Rebel Privateersinen, etc. [Frot the Ittelsmend ]inquirer, Nor. 13.,1 C.
