Late Southern News. Tho Memphis Appeal favors a movement which contemplates the establishment of a military high school in that city. It says : When peace is secured, and the difficulties at tending revolution are over, it will be necessary for the South to avail herself of every means by which to hold her position and secure n proper standing in the family of nations. To do thus she must be a military power, her sons must be trained to military discipline and acoustoraed to military evolutions.” Hon. Kobkht H. Grump, Mayor of Vicksburg died in that city on the 14th instant. ° MISSISSIPPI TROOPS GOINO TO VIRGINIA The Natchez Rifles left Memphis, Tennessee, on the 17th inst., for Virginia. AUGUSTA ARSENAL A large number of operatives are now employed at the Augusta ivrscTial, manufacturing cartridges, balls, and other munitions of war, which are sent to different point* of the Confederacy—to Rich mond, Pensacola, Savannah.

We understand, by the way, that our arsenal is to be made tho principal ammunition depot for tho CoofedeMte States. —Augusta {Ga.) Constitti tionafis!. THE ARKANSAS CROPS In referring to tho crops in that vicinity, tho Harrisburg (Ark.) Journal says that wheat and oats were generally good. Tho crop of these is said to be double that of any former year. Corn is fast maturing, and the crop promises to be enor mous. We are warranted hi saying that double or treble the quantity of com will be made this year in Arkansas than ever made before in ono yenr. The cotton crop promises well, and though as much ground may not have been planted, if the weather continues favorable, the crop will equal that of former years. Fruit is abundant. Tho apple, pear, peach, plum, apd other trees are laden. Irish potatoes ore plentiful. Sweet potatoes —a crop of no mean importance—are growing finely. The Jack sou port Herald is informed by competent judges that never has there been such a general yield of produce known in that section. The gathered crops have been enormous, and the growing crops, especially coni, promise to bo double or treble the quantity ever made known before in one year. RUMORED PROJECT TO ATTACK rORI'HESS MONROE The Richmond correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, in a letter dated August 6, intimates a probability that Fortress Monroe will be speedily attacked. Ho says: It is known that the Federal force issranll there at present. A large portion of what was there was withdrawn, and sent to Washington, under the ap prehension that the Federal capital was in immi nent danger of being taken after the battle of Mi.nassas. There are but two small war vessels near at present. There are not more than four or five thousand Federal troops at Newport Nows, if as many. General Magruder has some eighteen to twenty thousand men, than whom there is none bet ter in the world for such a dangerous enterprise. The fortress, on the land side, which is approached by the way of Newport News, is tho weakest part of it, though that is strong, doubtless, und has been greatly strengthened since the war began. But it is not impregnable. If Magrudcr. with his power ful force. drives the enemy from Newport News, they will retreat or run towards tho fortress, which is but a few miles distant. If the forces in the for tress come out to support their friends, Magruder fra? men enough, and of the right sort, to signally defeat them. If they remain in their stronghold, and use their guns, they must fire first upon their own troops, which will be fleeing in advance of ours. Tim first question is, then, cun Magruder drive them from their entrenchments at Newport News, and pursue them to Fortress Monroe ? His overwhelming numbers, the high character he bears for daring, brilliant achievements, und tho dauntless bravery of bis men, would make success highly pro bable. That being accomplished, the next ques tion is, oan he enter the fortress ? If the enemy come out to succor their retreating friends ho would defeat them. If they use their guns without coming out, they would destroy the Federal troops seeking their protection. In any ease it is likely they would be seized with a pnnic and make but a feeble defence. The contrary may happen, and our brave troops may meet with a more desperate resistance than is believed. Whatever may be the result, I have reason to believe that tho attempt will be made. I have the information from a highly credible sourc-c—a party stationed near Newport News, under Magruder, who returns lor the purpose of participating in tho attack. Gene ral Magruder has been making preparations for some time past, and is, I understand, well pre pared with scaling-ladders and every appliance for the undertaking. Such an important movement* if successful. Will have the most extraordinary re sults at home and abroad. It would be the natural corollary of the battle of Manassas, than which great event it would be scarcely less important. Bankhead Magruder lias done glorious deeds at Great Bethel, in Moxica, and elsewhere, but this would be the crowning act of all. SUE HKRIUKAC CONVERTED INTO A FLOATING BATTERY The Memphis Ap2*eal has the following : l - It would £eem that the hull of the ATcrrimac, at Norfolk, is being converted into an iron-cased battery. If so, sac will be n floating fortress that will be able to defeat the whole navy of the United States and bombard its cities. Her great size, strength, powerful engines mid speed, combined with the invulnerability secured by the >rou casing, will make the dispersal or destruction of the block ade fleet an easy task for her. Her immense ton nage will enable her to carry an armor proof aguinst any projectile, and she could entertain herself by throwing bombs into Fortress Monroe, even, without risk, no hope soon to hoar that she is ready to commence her avenging career on the seas.” THE JIAUPTOK LEGION. The Richmond Enquirer says: It has been de cided to change the formation of the Hampton Le gion. The infantry battalion is to -be increased to a regiment of ten companies, the cavalry will com prise five companies, and there will be an increase of fit-id pieces iu their company of flying artillery. With those numbers Colonel Hampton will be doubt* less raised to the rank of Brigadier and the infantry regiment will have a colonel, lieutenant-colonel, and major. The officers of cavalry and artillery wHI be the same as formerly. THE MILITARY HOSPITAL AT PENSACOLA. The Observer of the Bth inst. has a description of this institution. The building is large and well ventilated ; it is kept fts ctoftn- and neat os a parlor; the situation most excellently adapted and suited for the pur pose, and last, though not least, by any means, the attendant* are faithful! kind, and attentive, usin<r their efforts at all hours for the alleviation of the afflicted soldier. SUPREME COURT OF THE REBEL STATES. 4he Confederate States Supreme Court will hold no session until it shall be organized under the pro virioiw of the permanent constitution* Under tlic constitution of the provisional government it was provided that the Supreme Court shall be consti tuted of all the district judges, and shall sit at bucli times and places as Congress shall appoint. Under the permanent constitution, however, the Supreme Gsurt has not been established; during the existing hiatus in our judiciary system the clerks of district courts are empowered to issue writs of error with the same force and as if bsued out of the Supreme Court, and returnable on the second Monday of its first term after its establishment. BLOCKADE ITEMS. The Savannah Republican of the 10th instant, speaking of the blockade of the port of Fernaadino. Florida, says: ThO blockade off this port is much more strict since the burning of the prize bark Alvarado, on Monday last. In addition to the war-sloop (sup posed to be the Vince7i7ies) a propeller is seen hovering about the bar. The Federalists seem de termined that no. more prize vessels shall approach our harbor, even as near as the Alvarado came, which was about a mile and a half from the shore. The destruction of the bark's cargo was not total after nil. There has been saved from the wreck about $1&0. 000 worth of wool and copper, which arc ia charge of Colonel L. Dozier, Prize Commis sioner. The Yankee captain of the bark and his wife—who hauled up the United States flag Union down on the bark after the prize left her—are in custody of Colonel IV. J. Dihvorth, commanding the forces at this post, and will be by him forward ed to Richmond by the next trip of the St. Johns. The Richmond Dispatch of the 10th says: A notice appeared in this paper yesterday morn ing relative to reported proceedings of Admiral J>unia» with reference to the blockade. For this information it turns out there was no foundation ■whatever. The British consul in this City knOWo nothing of u:iy communication from the Admiral, through Lord‘Lyons, to the Northern President on the subject; in fact, Admirul Dundas is not in com mand on our coast. The story was made up out of whole cloth by some one. The Charleston Courier of the 12th inst says: The steamer Gen. Clinch., Capt. E. O. Harden, arrived here yesterday from Savannah and inter mediate points. Capt. M. informs us that there were two vessels, apparently both steamers, block ading Savannah. The Clinch came out at South Edislo and put into North Edisto on Sunday, but there was nothing in sight. On Friday lasts war steamer laid at anchor for some time off North Edisto, but has not been seen since. PHILADELPHIA PBUKJNKP.S IX’CHARLESTON The following prisoners of war (many of them Philadelphians) reached Charleston on the steamer General Clinch, on the 11th insfc. : Captain James Wilson, of the bark Rowena, of Philadelphia; William J.

FURTHER DEPREDATIONS OF THE SUMPTER. The Tampa (Fla.) Peninsula , of the 3d has the following, which our readers arc at liberty to believe if they choose : “ We have been placed in possession of informa tion which, if true, will produce a thrill of grati tude throughout the South equal to that caused by the nows of the great buttle of Mannas. Messrs. D. Archer and H. McLeod, who arrived at this place—the former on Sunday, and the latter on Wednesday last—both bring intelligence that the Confederate States steamer Sumpter besides capturing seven prizes, sunk the Federal war Steamers Crusader, Mo/taw/:, and Wyandotte , and that among the prisoners taken is the infamous Captain Craven, of the Crusader. From the above it appeal's that the little Confederate steamer is creating quite a sensation among the Lincolnitcson the Gulf. MOVEMENTS OF LEE AND P.OSKNCEANZ. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette com mumcatcs the following particulars to that journal, under date of the 14th last.: Three days ago, in first alluding to the presence of Lee beyond the Cheat Mountain Gaps, I ex pressed the belief that if he did make an attempt to enter this country, he would hardly try to storm the fortified Cheat Mountain Gaps, but would en deavor to cut a new road over what has been sup posed an impassable mountain range, and make a flank movement on the forces that were awaiting his attack in front. Then little or nothing was said of his movements, but now the air is thick with ru mors that ho is Cutting a road through the moun tains; that he is delaying until , he eon draw our forces to the Gaps; that he then may make a rapid rush post them to Beverly, and hurry on to Graf ton and the key to our railroad communication. Of this plan—if plan it be—and of our movement to resist it, or any other attempt the enemy may make, it need only be snid that Gen. Rosencrunz is supposed to be maturing ample preparations. Mean while the reviving hopes of tho Secessionist* may be observed in an infallible barometer. Those who arc fa miliar with the Philippi. Laurel Hill, and Rich Mountain campaign, will remember what an outburst of guerilla there was through alt this section of Western Virginia, just before the more serious operations began. Already something of tho same kind is beginning to bo noticeable again. Every day or two wo hear of some of our men being shot at from behind the bushes at the roadside; but yesterday a teamster told mo of being fired upon while driving a United States team between hore and Weston, and to-day thoro come stories of ft ekirnijsh between a handful of our men nnd a bund of native Secessionists, but a dozen miles from here, on the road to Pruntytown, in which several nro said to have been killed. lIOW FREMONT WORKS A gentleman who called upon Goneral Fremont at St. Louis, n few days ago, on business of no lees importance than the equipment of a full regiment of cavalry, says that the following conversation took place: Gen, Fremont, lean give you a few minutes i but bo brief and pointed, as my time is very much occupied. Colonel . lam of . My men are all enlisted : here are my muster rolls. My buys are ready at tho bugle call. I am elected their colonel. General Frimotsfc (looking over the papers}- All right—in order —seems to bo correct. Who are your references ? Colonel . Mr. and Mr. . General Fremont. Very well—call to-morrow wovniug, at ten minutes past four o'clock, and you shall have your answer, and, if I accede to your wishes, your papers will be ready. At ten minutes past four, precisely, our informant was at the tfcncntUn door, which flew open ut his demand. At this early hour the General was at his table, with Iho papers before him. The (Solouel made his bow, and was saluted thus : General Fremont. Hero arc your documents, which will got you your equipments. Make haste and report yourself with your command to General , and let me hoar a good report of you, as I have no doubt I shall, from what your references say. Good bye. As our friend went out he found half a dozen gentlemen in attendance in the ante-room watting their turn for an audience. Th«t ! s tho way that Fremont docs Ills business: and the above is indicative of the hours ho keeps.— C/t icago Tri buve. From Cincinnati. AN IMPORTANT AHWEST FOR TREASON —SENATOR BRIGHT, OF INDIANA, IMPLICATED. [From the Ciocimiuti Gazette, 19th.] About two weeks since information was received by the Custom House officers of the city that ono Thomas. B. Lincoln, a' prominent citizen of Texas, nnd an ardent sympathizer with the rebel Govern ment. was on Lis way to Cincinnati—that he had iu his possession documents that would warrant his ar rest on a charge of treason. Collector Carson im mediately put his deputies, Messrs. Pollock and Rose, on the track of the individual. Ho arrived here early last week, and took rooms at tho Madison House. His movements were close ly watched by Messrs. Rose and Pollock, until on .Saturday last, fearing their bird might fly, they got United States Marshal Sands to cage him. When arrested, he inquired what was the mutter with all tho astonishment of conscious innoconcc. On being iuformed that he was suspected of being a spy. he replied that the suspicion was unfounded, asd that even if it were correct he was too sharp to have any evidence of it about him. Hu said he wus a citizen of Texas, and participated in the Manassas buttle on the Confederate side. He was taken to the Marshal's office late in the afternoon, and trans ferred Ihenec to tho county jail to await an examina tion before United Stales Commissioner Hullulay at 9 A. M. to-day. On searching his trunk the following documents were found: Washington, D. C., March 1. 'Jo his Excellency Jefferson Davis. President of the Confederation oj'States: My Beak Sir : Allow me to introduce to vour acquaintance my friend. Thomas B. Lincoln, of Texas, lie visits your capital mainly to dispose of what he regards a great improvement in firearm*. I commend him to your favorable consideration as a gentleman of the first respectability, and reliable in every respect. Very truly yours. {Private and Confidential.] Mv Dear Sir : I have had an interview at last al tiic Department, and am to have another in a few days. Thiugs look pretty well. I will see you this evening or to-morrow morning. Truly yours, Beverly Tucker. The following pass from the Secretary of War gave him permission to travel within the Southern lines: CONFEDKR A7H STATES OF AMERICA, ) IVati Dkpautsiknt,Richmond. Aug. 1, iSGI. \ T. B. Lincoln has permission to visit Nashville, upon his honor as a man that ho will not communi cate in writing or verbally for publication any fact ascertained by him. L. P. Walker, Secretary of War. In addition to the above, there were found a number of letters from Southern gentlemen en dorsing Mr. L. as one sound on the Secession ques tion, viewed from a Dixinnic stand-point; also, a proposition from Wm. H Stokes, of Louisville, to make artillery harness, knapsacks, belts, etc., for the Secession army. Mr. Lincoln is said to be the inventor of a gun newly patented at Richmond, and in use in the Confederate army. He says he is an advocate of Southern rights, but denies that he is or has been acting as a spy. The examination this morning will reveal a great many facts which we arc not at liberty to publish this morning. Ileenniv * a Challenge for the Championship, [From ‘Wilkeis 1 fcrpirit of the Timcsi] The following spirited letter, drawn forth by the recent sneer.-? at ifeenan in the Loudon Sporting Press, has just been sent to us from Washington, by the American Champion. It will, doubtless, be read with interest by every man in the country : 54 Washington, August 15,1801. 4; To the Editor of Wilkes' Spirit: Dear Sir - la consequence of certain remarks that have re cently appeared in English journals, in which my name is again brought forward in connoction with the championship, I wish, through you, to say a word. It is said that Mace, now that he is champion, desires, above all things, to meet me; and it is also said that he is willing to make a match for the championship, and for as much more as £2,000 a side. Now, if there is any sincerity in this offer, it affords me an opportunity to say what I will do. “ Notwithstanding the unfair manner I was dealt by, when I was in England (from which I entirely acquit Tom Sayers), I am willing to try her maxim of fair play oneo more, and will fight the be3t man that England can produce, for the sum of £2,000 a side; and if H&ee is thought to be her best man, I will, of course, tight him. I allude to him-in this wav, because I do not think he is her best man, and because, when I was in Eugland last, I wo3 fre quently abused by many writers for the reason that Tom Sayers was a smaller man than myself. 3 t: ln making this offer. I. of course, intend to in clude the winner of the pending match for the Championship, between Mace and King, and, though 1 consider that I already own the belt, you may. as a matter of form, challenge for that too. Lot mo say. however, that-in Consequence of the manner in which I was hunted and harassed, when endeavoring to train before, and, also, in conse quence of the ruffianly treatment I received from tne crowd, at Farnborough, at the conclusion of my fight with Sayers. I wo>:ld prefer to tight Mace, or his conqueror, or whoever the selected man maybe, on this side of the Atlantic—say in Canada. In that case, I would relinquish to him, out of the main stake. .£ “>l)0, for his expenses, and give him a bond in £J.oUd more, guarantying against- any private interference with the fight, in m3' behalf. If, on the other hand, I am required to go to England, I shall expect lire same allowance, and an equal guarantee. t; On these terms (which I believe arc as fair as can be made) 1 will meet Mace, or any other man Englishmen may prefer, for the championship of the two hemispheres : and, if the latter portion of my offer is the most acceptable, I will go to Eng land, as I went before, alone and without local influence, and test again, by a still more deliberate verdict, the force of that other British maxim, which infers that the best man may be allowed to win, even though he be u stranger) and not a Briton bom. ** Please scud these views of mine forward, and, whenever you get an answer, and will notify .me of it, I will place in your, or any indicated hands, as much money as tho other parties may require to bind the match, or as a first deposit. Hoping earnestly that you may succeed in having this match made,'or, if declined, that there may be an end of pretended English .offers in connection with m3* name, I remain, ** Yours, respectfully, “John C. Heexax.” The above letter puts the subject-matter in as clear a light as possible, and the parties in England who have put forward the name of Macc, for a ten thousand dollar contest, must make good their vaunt at once, or take to the water, and ever after hold their peace. The terms offered by Hcenan. in reply to their boasting proclamations, are not only fair, but magnanimous to the last degree, for ho yields them English ground for the battle, even on this side of the Atlantic; and, should it he re fused, he, in face of the preat discouragement of previous experience, is willing to take the risks of English prejudice once more. If, therefore, these terms arc not olosed with by the Mace party, or by some one else fur England, wc shall conclude that they do not ‘ 4 mean business ” over there, so long as lleenan is in the field; or that the sense of honor which withheld the English belt from him, after he had forced the British Champion to lay it down, is not very much improved. Als ew Codfish Bask.—A curious discovery hns boon lately made in the North Atlantic by some Scotch fishermen—-nothing less than a rock in mid ocean, whose base is the home of innumerable cod fish, who, being unacquainted with the appearance of a hook and line, bite sharply, and fall an easy prey to eager fishermen. An English paper says: li Mr. T. Dawson, medical officer, North Isles, writes to the Times to announce an important discovery. It is nothing less than a new hank of cod, at a place called Rockall, three hundred and sixty miles south of North Isles. The bank was discovered by Capt. Bhodc. a , a muster of the Resolution , of London, who had a hint of its existence thirteen years ago from the mate of an Irish vessel. He sailed with two vessels on the 2d July, and roturnod on the 13th of the same month with twenty-seven tons of the largest cod. Mr. Dawson says the hank is haunted by blue sharks; but according to Capt. Rhodes they caught the fish as fast as they could pull. The livers of the cod, he states, were also very rich, and produced large quantities of oil. He has examined the cod; they arc very large and very thick; the tusks arc ▼cry thick and fat, hut shorter than usual, while the ling arc the same as those caught at other places. This solitary rock in the ocean, which will for a time become tho El Dorado of our cod smacks, rises about the height of a ship above tho sea. Characteristic Anecdote of McClellan. —N. P. Willis, in a footnote to his “ Lookings on at the War,” relates the following passing remark of Gen. McClellan: 'A very distinguished civilian, who had called upon him that afternoon on some matter of im portance, concluded his visit by a general comment or two on the state of affairs, venturing u question, at last, as to what McClellan thought of our army's probable recovery from the late defeat. 11 X do not think,” musingly replied the hero of Western Virginia, “ that they will whip us again; but if they do, there will bo two men left dead on the field—l shall be one, and Lander will be the other.” A Brave Girl. —A heroic exploit is told of a beautiful young woman in the village of Sninolli. in Southern Italy. The house of her uncle, a Liberal priest, wa? invaded by some twenty brigand ruf fians. One of the leaders was amusing himself by the poor priest, who was old, when the girl ruJicd in, flung herself on him, nnd simlched in an instant, the brace of revolvers he had in his belt, and shot him dead. She ran through all the rooms, firing upon every brigand sho found engaged iu plundering the house. She shot down four of them. Alarmed nt this unexpected attack, and not knowing what to make of it, the ruffian* in the other rooms ran out. She, still pursuing them, suc ceeded, before they could get a knowledge of tho enemy they had to encounter, in closing tho front door ftgninst them. The brigands attempted to set firo to the house. From the balcony she put out an old musket belonging to her unde.* nnd fired upon them again, and then, displaying from tho window a tri-colored flug. cried Viva Garibaldi, with all her strength. Tho miscreants fired an ineffectual shot or two, and fairly ran for it. A few moments after a captain of bcrsagliert, who just came up. found the exhausted girlin u faint upon the dead body of her uncle.

Fall of an Aerolite. —Tho London Times has an account by an eye-witness of the fall of an aerolite of enormous size. A rushing sound, gra dually increasing in intensity, made itself heard, until at lost, with a terrific roar, a flaming mass plunged into the road. Laborers wore called, and succeeded in disinterring what proved a most mag nificent aerolite, the weight being 83* pounds. It had buried itself nearly six feet in the ground, and was red-hot when reached. While cooling, the crystals assumed, while constantly changing, tho most beautiful prismatic hues. Its specific gravity was greater than that of iron. A strong smell of sulphur was diffused immediately after the descent, and several crystals of that element were found in the cavities on tho upper surface.— N. Y. Sun.
