MILITARY AFFAIRS AT ANNAPOLIS. sorreepundenf or the Tetteues -viirluse from An sepolie, trio., -under date of the eeth,.a.s follows: :- Ties quaint old city has become the .ee.1314.43 of im- Mense ami vite , and its quiet inhabitants, most of whom are rebel, b 3 nipathizers, stare between the forme of their gri-throuen Vghene weirtien blindsstreets at to erdth umiss the_ imor , in" e Ear ronediegeg count's - The tread fields where the liurrienie ex eeditunt of ildie encamped. are egain wits ened with rapidly incre , eing touts; which seem to have sprung, up with the grass of spring. Groeps - are daily end bonny engaged in teritling,. it us important that the w recruits should ac quire some pro ticien cy at an early day. The ad van tage of rte fitting up Vitale regiments is aPparent,as the actual experience of these ve areas becomes at once part of the joint stuck in trade of the otd and new treops. Another change is a.so apparent, and is significantly buggestive of the rrogress of events. Wier- once the wrap of the stave-driver cra.ked over die twirls, and the ring of fetters resounded around the slave mart, these is now heard the creek of the rifle at target praztice, in tee hands of those very slaves, and the ring of the ramrod in the steel barrel - sines a diffeient, soug to their ears. In cne of the Michigan regiments, also, are three or lour eldepunies oi.lisyal Indians, who have en listed to aid their Gr=ac.Fathtr in punishing his parricidal and fratricidal sons. The nt-groes make tar betnr soleiers, however; than the ladle's. It is now no secret that there is oeieg collected at tilts city a large force of all arms of the service, destined ior speolal service ender Gee Barustde Wbeti the expedition will leave, what will be its nuMbsre, and whither it will co, are matters of isk-culation , qn and to no one more so than to the peepieg-throuithe Me-blind Secesh of Annapolis. That it is to be an important Move %there is no doubt; that it will be successful is more • lum proeable. Meanwhile let us shire iu Lids The last arrival of paroled prisoners . Ed much toe and filling the excellent tiostfital at the Naval Academe ,in charge of Dr. Vandereeift. A. num ber of the pier, enlace ed, broken-spirited felto ws have ahem , y died, and the kind surgeon tells me that some 50 others will join the army of the dead. If there be one person Norte who doubts the harsh treatment the rebels give our prisoued relatives, ls I. him or her come to Annapolis and look at ths wrecks of humanity which the cold waves o rebel cowardice and indifference have stranded upin t - he shore of he River Severn. The old quo tation came forcibly to mind: • .The Avon to the -Severn runs, The Severn to the sea, And Wicklyffe's blood shall spread abroad Wide as the waters be_ ',— And as Libby's loathsome walls rose in imagina tion before me, I thought of the t-tßetaliatiort ! Re- Wiesen .1" written all over those walls by oar brave fellows. The arrival of the new troops also contributed to the hospital &large number or patients, victim, of the bad effects of transportation by rail, where men will buy indigestible pies, and poisonous candies, and questionable sandwiches, with which they gorge themselves into the hospital. If the men had the exercise of marching, the pernicious ef fects of this combination, though bad enough Would not reach the point otherwise mire to be /Maimed. The reminiscences of tfie returned officers from Libby are in the main similar, and mostly a repe tition of the old tale. The officers explain the dodge by which we have been made to believe that the boxes sent trom home andby the tindery Com mission have been or are being delivered, thus:— When a flag of truce boat arrives, the rebels dis tribute a few boxes, but atop the moment_ the next batch of released prisoners are ofe t , These men see ing the dietributio, going on, announce that fact at home. It is averred by more testa one officer cognizant of- the facts, -that there have been at least 2,000 boxes received by the rebels, but never distributed, some of which are now on hand. The method of giving the contents of a box to its owner , is some- What ingenious, but quite destructive. The for tnnate possessor is required to bring his blanket and spread it on the ground. The box is opened, and ppekage after package taken out and examined. Chee,Yes are cut into inch pieces and pitched into the blanket. Cans of condensed milk are perfo rated with a steel pointed ...baton and follow suit Packages coffee, tea, sugar, salt, etc., are torn open and poured into the conglomeration. Cans of butter are treated a la cans of milk. and so od te...sungh the whole category of gbodies. The un fort move cwaer is then told to take up his blanket and walk, which he does, cursing the brute who sidled, first his luxuries and then his comfort. •In reference to the powder under Libby, Dick Turner, formerly connected with the Eutaw House, Baltimore; but now the hard-hearted'ad intent of the prison, tole one of our officers who questioned him that he (Turner) "knew damn well that there was one thousand pounds of pow der under the prison, but that he didn't put it there." There is also other proof of the cowardly, fiendish act Major Turner called several of the officers down, and told them he understood they 'had a plan to escape, but advised them not to try it, as the most effectual means had been take to prevent its success. This was the day after Kilpatrick's attack. The rebels use our privates at their different trades. A call was made .for shoemakers, and about two thousand volunteered, so as to escape the rigors of Belle Island. Col. Di Cessnola, who --was then one of the Commission to distribute the gooc s to the prisoners on Belie Isle, seeing the ad vantage thus derived by the rebels, cautioned the men through their sergeants, that they were thus aiding and abetting the rebellion. When this was nuderstoOd, no mote volunteers were obtained. An inmate of Fort Warren thought Cessnola had no business to interfere with this pleasant little arrangement of the rebels, and Col. C. was relieved from the Commisidon. • The paymaster gladdened the hearts of the pa ruled officers end men yesterday, and qu• te a num ber of officers left for the North last night. When they•ilia landed in Annapolis these officers were forced to beg for lodgings and something to eat; they were refused admittance at the hotels, but at last got in at some of the boarding-houses, and - when it was found they had money the hotel keepers relented. The handsome Secesh ladies of the town adhere to the old customs of wailing themselves when they come in sight of an officer, and removing this bar of their beauty after passing him. They also avoid having the hem of their garments brush against the hated uniform. The forlorn look with which your correspondent was told at the City lintel that "it was next to im possible to keep hotel now for want of help;" and to the query "why'?" the still more forlorn an swer, ' •because our boy. (slaves) have enlisted," would have convinced Fernando Wood, or Sunset iDer, Vallandteham, or even Jeff. Davis, that "Slavery was dead." It is to be hoped that the 'Union party will see the corpse deeply, if not de cently, interred. ABOUT FISH AND FISHING. Fishing is like ptetry, aman most be borne to it, said honest and enthusia tic Izaak Walton, and there is, undoubtedly, an almo a irresistible fasci nation exercised by it over its votaries, which, to be believers in Dr. Johnson, with hie worm at one end and fool at the other, is both incomprehensible and ridiculous. Still. notwithstanding the dictum of the ursine philosopher, the popularity of the "gentle craft" is unquestionable. No license is recraired to follow it. A few shillings will pro tare all needful appliances for its lower branches. The urchin rejoices in a piece of twme and a crooked pin; it gives semblance of occup hen without labour ; it leads its dis ciples into fresh air, and, usually, pleasant scenery. But this 'atter luxury can. of cunt se, only be erjoyed in perfection by those who recline on a gra-sy bank, or sit at ease surroanded by creature comforts ins pant. and le nowise ap plicable to the salmon fisher who is forced to tear at break-neck speeci over break -neck rocks or to *wade breast high mid-stream, reckless of cruel snags and holes. Indeed, it is doubtful in anch case which has most sport, man or ash, for assuredly the latter is often master of the sit 'mime , and leads the angler, hither, thither, like a blind man by a dog: As a general rule, how, ever, the angler ultimately has the best of it, the fish furnishing him with fun while living, and food 'when dead. Upon so engrossing a pursuit works without number have been written, Wal ton's 'being the highest in literary merit; but the directions of that father of the craft are now voted obsolete, and his work is only valued for the charming pictures it conveys, especially to those ..in populous- city pent," of rural life aad scenery. An English work by Par. Pen men ' has ' gone at length into the natural history of fish, or " ichthyology,' to use the scientific term, his object being not merely t enable the angler to catch them, bat to incince.liiin to observe their customs and manners, and thus enlarge theboundary_ of our knowledge concerning them; and he even anticipates that by this means new varieties may possibly be dis covered in these islands. Even as it is, the va riety is much greater than one would think. Thus all our readers are familiar 'with the roach; but how many have come in contact with its relation to the graining? Again, the sight, if not the taste, of the ealmen is within reach of every one, yet who 'ould suspect it of being connected with the gwynlilit the pollon and the powan 1 Although the salmon family,inclnding all varieties of trout, is nnqueetionably by far the most important; it is avian - Mat the author has a weakness for that itresh-water scourge, the pike, one recommends. item of which, in his eyes. is, that it o casionally seizes the. bait with such energy as to force the aag'er to drop the rod from sheer terror; and an other is that it will attack mankind not merely in the water but on land, the author himself having .had the privilege of being severely bitten above ' the knee by a fine Thames fish, which sprung off the ground after. it was supposed to be dead, and seized him 'by the thigh, where it hung' , —..a 4p r i_ vilege" which few, we suspect, vvill be so enthn. siastic as to envy him., He, also tells us a pike attempted manslaughter. In the Reading Mercury a statement appeared that a lad aged 15, named Eengtmrst, had gone into Inglemere Pond, near Ascot Heath, to bathe. - . and that, when he bad walked into the depth of about four feet, a huge fish, supposed to he a pike, suddenly rose to the enriace and seized his arm. Finding himself resisted, however, he abandoned it, but stilliol lowed, and caught hold of the other band, which he bit very severely. The lad, clench ling the hand which had been flrstb.tten,strach his assailant a heavy blow or. the head, when the fish a wan; away. W. Barr Bfami, Bn. ; surgeon, dressed seven wountisi -- two - of which were .very eeep,and whichbled profusely. I wrote to this entleman whit very p lbtely obtained and sent this, 13,1, Sept. 18, 1857, the wholehccount in writing, from the young man's - father (George s s onglaurst, of Sunnite Bill), which I give. as I received it: "Particulars of an encounter with a -fish in the month of June, 1855. One of my sons; ged 15, went with three other boys to bathe in. Inglemenre -Pond, near Ascot race-course; he walked gently into the water to about the - depth of four feet, when he spread out his hands to attempt to swim; Instantly a large fish came tip. and took his hand into his mouth as far up as the w'ist, but, finding he could not swallow it, relinquished his - hold, and the boy turning round, prepared fora hasty re treat out of the pond; his companions, who saw it, air o scrambled out of the pond as fast as possible. MY son had e arcely turned himself round when the fish came up brhlnd him and immkdiately seised his other • hand, crosswise, inflicting . some very deep wounds on the back of it; the boy raised his flrst.biten, and still bleeding atm, and struck the mot:rater a bard ,blew on the head, when -the fish- disappeared. The other boys assisted- him to dress, bound up his hand with _their handkerchiefs, a• .d brought him home. We took him down to Brown, surgeon, who dressed seven wounds in one hand, and so great was the pain the next day, that the lad feuded twice; the little linger was bitten through the nail, and it was more than six weeks before it was 'well. The nail came off; and the scar remains to this day. A few days after this occurrence, one of the woodmen . was walking by the side of the pond, when be saw something white floating. A man, who was passing on horseback, rode in, and found it to tr. a large.pike in a. dying state; he twisted his 'whip round it and brought tto .In. re myself and my son were immediately sent tor to look at it, when the boy at once recognized his an agon,st The fish appeared to have been a longtime in the agonies- - of death; and the body tts as vet, lea., and curved like abo v.

The reason is, it is the best novel of high-toned, first-class English i.ociety, which every one likes to read about, that has been published for years. It is true to Mr life, and stirs up no base feelings, but arouses the best, and teaches an admirable lesson. It is bound to hayp as long a run in this country as it has had in England. For thirteen years it has held its own there with ten new books a day to crowd it out of existence.
