Thu, of all human feeling?, is the most terrible and
terrifying.
The rout and capture of the Secession column at
Pikeville, united with the burning of the bridges
in his rear, will, beyond question, compel Zolli
coffer to retreat from Cumberland Gap.
The burning of the bridge over the Cumberland
river is to the Louisville and Nashville Railroad
■what the destruction of the bridge over the Susque
hanna would be to the Pennsylvania Central. With
both his hanks heavily menaced, with, indeed, the
eastern one turned, and his base line of operations
thus out off with Nashville, nnd his front heavily
threatened by General Buell’s column, how can
Buckner maintain his position at Bowling Green !
Has it not become a military impossibility ?
With Buckner driven back to Nashville, Price
forced into Arkansas, how can Polk maintain his
position at Columbus ? Can ho stop short of Mem
phis unless he throws his whole central column out
of line with his left and right wings? Without a
monstrous blunder upon part of our generals in the
West, resulting in defeat, (and, aa yet, they have
committed none,} the front line of the enemy, within
the space of two weeks, will rest upon Knoxville,
Nashville, Memphis, and Little Rock.
The evidences are, that a GovemmentstiU exists,
and that a strong Union feeling prevails everywhere
in the Southwest, a wailing only the presence of the
Union forces to develop its strength and power.
How the Ring is to he Formed.
More than a month ago The Press showed how,
by the line of Gauley, Lynchburg, and Weldon,
or by that of Gainesborough nnd ltaleigh, with a
simultaneous movement from the sea-coast, either
from Hatteras or Wilmington, all communication
between the Cotton Slates and Virginia could be
cut off.
Circumstances would seem to point out that this
line of interception has been determined upon
farther to the westward, and it is to be made
through South Carolina and Tennessee. Perhaps
the Government has wisely chosen that as the
most accessible and defensible ”coil for the ana
conda ” to make. With Kontucky devoted to the
Union, in case of reverse, there is a home frontier
to fall back npon.
Both Nelson and Schoepff are within sixty-five
or seventy miles of the Tennessee and Virginia
Railroad—the former nearest to Grenvillo, the
home of Andy Johnson, and the lattor to Knox
ville, the home of Parson Brbwnlow. When this
medulla spinalis —this central cord of rebellion—
is reached effectively, then, indeed, the woundod
snake of rebellion will writhe in mortal agony.
“ Now, by St. Paul, the work goes bravely on!”
Fortress Monroe, Va., Nov. 11, 1881.
The Forty-eighth Regiment, Pennsylvania Vol
unteers, will leave this point this evening, on the
steamer »?• If* Spaaid tug for Hatteras Inlet.- -
This regiment is commanded by Colonel James
Nagle, who served as captain in the Mexican war,
was one of the first to Tespond again to his country’s
call when the Southern rebellion broke out.
The major, and most of the other officers, served
under their present colonel daring the three
months service. After the expiration of their term
of enlistment, they immediately commenced and
recruited the present regiment. I understand that
itisaneatire Schuylkill county regiment. From
their drilling and discipline one would suppose they
had been in the service for two years, instead of
three months.
Should they get a chance at the rebels, I am sure
they will render a good account of themselves.
General Mansfield regrets their leaving his com
mand, and would have been better pleased could
they have remained.
The health of the regiment is very good; only
some five will be left here in the hospital.

The Successful Departure of the Bermuda
from 'Savannah.
Wc have been permitted to copy the following
extract from a private letter, written by an officer
of our navy, giving an account of the manner in
Which the Ezrwuda ran the blockade:
C. S. Steamer “Huntress, 77 )
Savannah, Gn., Nov 3,1861. j
Dear : I have only time to write to you a
very hurried letter. We came back from a suc
cessful expedition awhile ago. We went down last
night to carry the Bermuda out, loaded with about
2,000 bales of cotton. We confidently expected a
fight, as the plan was for us to attack the blocka
ding vessels, while she was to pass out. Went
down to Fort Pulaski about dark-—the five vessels
of our mosquito fleet, the Bermuda following. A
heavy gun was fired from the battery at Warsaw,
which was the signal, but on going out we found
rone of the vessels, as the night was very dark,
rainy, and stormy, just the thing for us, and their
attention, I suppose, was drawn off by the signal
gun. So we fooled them, and gave them the slip
completely; all of us returned in high spirits, and
“nobody hurt,” as wo certainly anticipated en
gaging them last night.

The Navigation of the Mississippi.
The Hew York Herald's Washington correspond**
cnt sajs:
The despatch in the Herald of Sunday last, an
nouncing a reported discovery by Emperor Napo
leon, in the British .Museum, of a copy of a treaty
made at the time France ceded Louisiana to the
United States, stipulating that the Mississippi
should at all times be kept open to the navigation
of French vessels, has created quite a sensation in
diplomatic circles here. The private letter receiv
ed by a distinguished gentleman of Philadelphia
from a London banker, announcing the fact from
•which I originally quoted, was handed to Secretary
Seward to-day. All the treaties known to the Go
vernment, on the subject of the Louisiana pur
chase, have been examined this afternoon, but none
yet discovered appear to contain anything that
could be construed into such a pledge on the part
of our Government as is indicated in the private
letter from England * except clauses six and seven,
on page sixteen of volume eight “ United States
Statutes at Large.” It is only necessary to state,
and I do so authoritatively, that the Government
of the United States will adhere strictly to the re
quirements of that treaty, and will act promptly to
carry out all of them with the full force of the army
and navy. In short, the Government is now in the
act of clearing the Mississippi river of the rebel
batteries erected on its banks, with the purpose of
preventing the exercise of this very ripht now said
to be claimed by France. The river is not closed
by the Government, but by opponents of the Go
vernment. The Union blockade at the mouth of
the Mississippi is only a part of the work of tho Go
vernment to open it to navigation. It therefore
remains for France to settle whether she will aid a
legitimate Government in sustaining international
law, or will join a horde of miscreants who are in re
bellion against all law. There is no treaty existing
betwen the United States and any other Power on
earth that will cot bo strictly adhered to by that
Government at all times.

“ Fort Union, Sept, 25, 1851.
* * # * # *
u I have not much news to inform you of; but
our company has removed from Fort Fauntleroy to
Fort Union since I wrote last. We expected to go
to the States, but the surrender of Major Lynd,
with seven companies of the Seventh infantry and
some mounted rides, to a ragged band of Texans
about 220 strong, caps everything; so the com
mander of the [department, Colonel Canby, thought
It necefsary to keep the Fifth infantry in New
Mexico still.
“ I have been talking to men of the Seventh that
were at Fort Fillmore, or where the surrender took
place, and they tell me the affair was most disgrace
ful. The men were willing to fight, but the officers
would not. and surrendered to a half-armed, half
elQthed, miserable set of wretches from the New
Mexican townß along the Rio Grande. What do
you ihink of that? A good many of the men told
me that the only gentleman and officer in the com
mand was Lieut. Criily. He carried water in his
ambulance to the stragglers behind on the road, and
fired the only cannon shot that was fired.”
Serious Accident to Gen. Tom Thumb.
A serious accident happened to Charles S. Strat
ton, better known as Gen. Tom Thumb, at St.
Catherines, Canada, one day last week. The To
ronto Globe gives the details as follows :
Gen. Tom and his suite were proceeding to Ni
agara town, being advertised to appear there that
day. They had scarcely left the Welland House
five minutes when the axle of their conveyance
broke; the horses, high-spirited ones, immediately
became uncontrollable and started. After carrying
away tho hind part of & buggy standing by the road
side, the fore wheel came off They then made for
the sidewalk, which is an embankment twenty feet
bigb. One of the horses went over the bank, but
fortunately at this juncture the pole broke, freeing
the animals, and, part of the debri3 becoming en
tangled in the fence, luckily saved them from a
boih in the Welland canal. Tho General was
thrown out with great violence, alighting on his
back. He w«s instantly picked up by Mr. Tomlin
(who was much cut and bruised) and carried into a
-store, where fortunately no bones were found to bo
broken, but he was much bruised and shaken. Mr.
Pierce, being seated to the driver, was ena
bled to take a spring and escaped unharmed.
Messrs. Wells and He Vere were badly bruised, as
also was tho valet.. Mr. Caswell, the pianist, took
a flying leap and alighted on bis face, much to the
derangement of his nasal organ. The little foot
man was much alarmed, and his smart livery was
iu a pretty pickle from rolling in the mud. The
re mainder of the party were more or less bruised.
The General bore the mishap with great coolness
and composure, and appeared much gratified when
he learned that none of his retinue were seriously
injured. After a short delay they again started.
rejoicing that no worse misfortune had befalleu
them. The General was advised to rest himself for
the day, but he resisted all solicitations, being de
termined that the Niagara public should not be
disappointed.

THE RETURN JUDGES.
MORE TROUBLE IN REGARD TO
TJIE ARMY VOTE.
THE MATTER AGAIN IN COURT.
Tlio Return Judges reassembled yesterday morning at
10 Morris S. Farker, president, iu the chair*
Before the meeting was called to order, Mr. Gowau made
h's appearance, and served upon each member a writ of
mandamus.
Mr. Simpson refused to recognize the writ, on the
ground that it was not properly attested, Ac.
A man whom Mr. Gowan said was his assistant was
excluded from the room.
The Board was now called to order, and the roll was
called—all the menibors present.
An exciting discussion took place between Messrs.
Simpson and Carrigan relative to the writ which had just
been served. Several of the membqrs took the floor, and
Tor a time the greatest confusion and excitement pre
vailed.
The writ says;
“Now, therefore, wo command you, Joseph Tree,

Or forthwith to us, to sho* cause why you have not exe
cuted this our writ of mandamus, and how you shall exe
cute this our writ, you 9ha!l certify to us at a court to be
holden at 10 o’clock, on the 13th day of November, 1861,
and have with yon there this our writ of mandamus.
The original writ was served upon the president, who
inquired whether it hud been issued by the president
judge.
The officer responded that it had been issued by the
court.
Mr. Simpson remarked that the writ had not boon is
sued by Judge Thompson.
r Mr. Carrigan replied that it hinl, and a sharp conver
sation occurred between those two gentlemen, which WAS
finally brought to u close by the President.
Mr. Stafford moved that a committee of three be ap
pointed to wait upon Charles D. Knight, the prothouo
tary, to request bis attendance for the purpose of stating
the reasons why he did not make all the returns at once,
and why the additional returns made on Tuesday were
Withheld.
Mr. Simpson said that when the prothonotary of the
court was here yesterday he said he had certified to all
the returns that he had considered formal and in accord
ance with the provisions of the law. The returns now
sent here by order of an associate judge of the court were
not, in bis opinion, pioperly attested. We do not kuow
what kind of letnvns they are, as they are not properly
certified. Upon the face of tlio accompanying document
it appears that the returns are hoFore us by the direction
of Judge Ludlow. Mr. S. did not think that Judge Lud
low had anything to do with the return judges or the re
turns, as the law provides that they shall he certified by
the prothonolary of the court.
Mr. Stafford said he understood that some of these ad
ditional returns, now before us by the direction of Judge
Ludlow, did not come to the pruthonotary as provided by
law, some having come by private conveyance, and not
by mail. The resolution was agi eed to, and Mr. Stafford
appointed chairman of the committee.
The committee to wait upon the protlionotary return
ed, and stated that he would soon bo present.
The prothouotary, with Chas. Gilpin, Esq., his coun
sel, coon after mode Ills AppeftrAtifie, Atul tllO Ohjod for
which he was summoned was stated by the president, as
follows: Mr. Protlionotary, this body is desirous of ob
taining some information in regard to the returns from
the army. Whether they come according to law]
Whether they come by mail or express 7 Also, such
other matters as will aid the judges to complete tlio
Counting of the vote.
Mr. Knight replied that liia counsel, Mr. Gilpin, would
reply for him.
Mr. Gilpin then said : It affords the prothonotan* great
pleasure to appear before you, or before the court with
which he may have any official connection. At this mo
ment his appearance before you, and whatever ho may
Bay might be, and no doubt will be, the subject of much
discussion and canvassing throughout the city. I have
advised him to say nothing, and to speak only by tn©
card. You will appreciate the embarrassing position in
which he is placed, lie tas endeavored to do his duty,
and intends so to do. He may be in error in a matter of
judgment. His Honor Judge Ludlow thought the pro
thonotary bad not done his duty. He complied then
with what he considered the direction of the court. There
h an obvious impropriety at this moment for me to say a
word about these returns, especially as the case is being
heurd now in the Common Pleas. It may be proper for
me or the prothonotary to give you information, hut
only at the proper time. We consider that the returns
here ure under the authority of the judge. I have great
respect for Judge Lfldfow, andwill bow to his decision,
whatever that may be. The jndge may be wrong, a
lawyer uiuj in.* aud r«e© voi-awy-n/ur mo jwigp-to
above a lawyer, and, therefore, the latter should submit,
whether right or wrong. I have kept my eye and my
heart single to carry my client through these troubles
successfully. I have every reason to act with caution,
especially when I observe that such men as Judge King
and Judge Ludlmv differ in their opinions on any vital
point. Judge King, you will remember, was of the
opinion that tho celebrated^ 44 Schimpfillor ” vote ought
to be sent to Harrisburg on'tlieir reception at the office;
Judge Ludlow that only the certified copy should be sent.
Under these circumstances, he felt obliged to decline
answering all questions as to whether theso returns were
the certified copies or the original.
Mr. Simplon tli6ii Asked Mr. Gilpin whether the returns
last sent to the return judges were all received through
the mall ? ’
Mr. Gilpin. So far as thi3 is concerned, I say yes;
not ascounsel, however, for the prothonotary, but a 3 a
private citizen.
Mr. Wright protested against any questions being an
swered in this manner. If that course is to be adoptod,
we may as well open the doors and admit other citizens,
Mr. Simpson. Were you present, Mr. Gilpin, when
the returns were opened 1
Mr. Gilpin. Some, butnot all of them.
Mr. Wright again protested, and the subject was
dropped.
The president then returned tho thanks of the Board
to the prothonotary and his counsel for their attendance,
and they retired.
Mr. Stafford moved that, ‘as an argument was now
peuding in the Com t of Common Pleas relative to the re
turns, they should take a recess until oue o’clock.
This was objected to by several members, and a wrang
ling debate followed.
Mr. Simpson said the state of affairs was now different
from yesterday, when they took a recess by request of
Judge Ludlow. Now, the other side of tho question was
being discussed before the court, and out of due deference
to that body a rccesft should be taken.
The motion to take a recess finally prevailed, when a
disgraceful scene followed—caused as to who should keep
possession of the returns until the reassembling of the
Beard* §pmc of the members charged others with fraud,
and were unwilling that tho returns should be loft in their
care, for fear alterations might be made. Their conduct
was anything but gentlemanly.
The Board met again shortly after one o’clock, when it
was understood that the court had adjourned. A motion
was therefore made to take a further recess until two
O’clock.
Mr. Hancock submitted the following as an amend*
men! -
** Whereas, The business of the Return Judges has
been retarded by the numerous writs and proceedings be
fore the Hon. Jas. R. Ludlow, one of the judges of the
Court of Common Pleas, and by the request of said
Judge this body yesterday suspended their business,
and, as we are informed and believe, that other proceed
ings will he had before said court; therefore,
“Resolved, Out of respect to tho Hon. J. B, Ludlow',
we do hereby agree to take a recess until such time as
shall enable the said judge calmly to adjudicate all ques
tions which have been or may be presented to him touch
ing tho rights or duties of this body, and that said judge
bo respectfully requested to notify the president of this
Board when he shall have concluded and disposed of all
such question?, so . that this body may be called together
to flDlfh ibvir duties according to law.**
After some discussion, the resolution was postponed
for the present.
It was then agreed that hereafter, during all the re
cet ses of the Board, the returns should he held by the
president.
The vote was then taken on Mr. Hancock’s resolution
to take a recess, and was agreed to by a vote of 14 to 10.
Mr* Wright wished to know who was to call the Board
together again.
He was told the president.
Mr. Wright said the resolution did not provide for this;
he bad misunderstood it. In bis opinion the body was
not yet adjourned
The president overruled Mr. Wright, and declared that
the Board stood adjourned, or had taken a recess. A
number of the members then started off to go Into tho
Court of Common Pleas for the purpose of informing
Judge Ludlow of the passage of tho resolution.
THK MATTER IN COURT.
Yesterday morning, in consequence of the return judges
not counting the votes in the certificates forwarded to
the Board, under the advisory opinion of Judge Ludlow,
d writ Of alternate nmililiimuri was applied for from Judge
Ludlow to compel ihe return judges to compute the votes
according to law. The writ was made returnable at 10
o’clock yesterday morning. The Democratic members of
the Board made a return to the writ that they were will
ing and ready to compute the return sent in on Tuesday
nijzht by the prothonotary.
Mr. A. C. Goweu, who served the writ, made affidavit
to that effect, anil that J. Alexander Simpson, one of tho
members, refused to accept service of the writ, as it was
not issued by the president of the court.
Messrs. Riddle, Hirst, Cnssidy, J. E. and A. C. Gowen
appeared for Mr. Lawrence, the relator in tho writ, and
M. Russell Thayer represented some of the return judges
who had refused l* obey the writ.
Mr. Thayer moved to quash tho writ, on the ground
that tlm act of 1105, which regulated thu issuing of tho
writ ofmandamu.-q required the president judge of the
court to be present.
Next he urged that the return judges had their duties
to perform, and, in the exercise of their duties, the court
could not interfere; and if injustice was done, the courts
were open to the parties, and a contested election case
could be tried in the manner set forth by the acts of As
sembly,
The argument was continued at length by Mr. Thayer,
and at the conclusion Judge Ludlow said that the ground
which he had maintained, at considerable expense to his
feelings, was now being shown to bo correct. His view
was that, at this stage of the proceedings, neither the
court, t]»e prothoiwt&ry, nor the return judges could
exercise judicial discretion. He then proceeded to dis
pose of thu motion to quash. When tho act of 1705 was
passed, the associate judges were laymen, and, therefore,
the propriety of allowing only the president judge to
issue the writ of mandamus. A subsequent act, applying
to the county ol Philadelphia, gave, as associates, judges
learned in the law. It haa been tho practice in the court
for years for a ainglo judge b, issue the writ, and lie
would, therefore, refuse the motion to quash.
Mr. Thayer desired time to prepare tho answer-of the
judges, and the court accordingly granted an adjourn
ment until half past twelve o’clock. At that time it was
stated by Mr. Thayer that previous to tho determination
of bis motion tho return judges had adjourned until one
o’clock, and until that time he would not be able to ace
thorn, mid would llioroforo ask a further postponement
until half past one o’clock. This wag granted.
At half past one o’clock the return of tho return judges
to the writ was read by Mr. Thayer, setting forth
that they had not refuted to compute the vote, and tho
reasons for their delay. To this a demurrer was filed by
the csunsel for the relatori*, on which an argument was
bad, which reunited in.7ndge Ludlow sustaining the de
murrer, but granting to the return judgea a further time
to prefer un amended answer—to wit, until five o’clock.
The court then adjourned until that hour.
AVjmt ox M-andamckOk anted.— Long before the court
was opened at five o’clock a large crowd as as congrega
ted outside the door, which, when opeued, was besieged
by a host of applicants for admission. The room was
completely packed in a few minuted—a largu number be*
log unable fo gain admission.
The proceedings were opened by Mr. Thayer, who
slated tlmt it had been impossible lor him to confer with
his clients, as they had adjourned previous to the court
doing so. He had visited (heir residences and places of
bmim*ss. and yet was unable to meet them all. He
Wished tlifit further time Might bo granted him. He had
fallen into an error during the mumfngi by quoting from
an net as passed in 1705, when, in reality, it was passed
in 1836, anti therefore, by a fair construction of tho pro
visions of the act of Assembly, uo single judge could issue
the writ of mandamus. Up to 1836, courts of Common
Pleas had no right to issue writs of mandamus.
Mr. llirst, after a few remarks, read from an net of
February 3, 1843, showing that one associate judge of
the Court of Common Pirns had the right to tone » writ
of mandamus.
Mr. Thayer wished time, in order to examine whether
certain sections of this act hud not bceu repealed.
Mr. Hint now asked that a peremptory writ of man
damus might be issued. He then explained the nature of
the writ and ita service. If, ''hen issued, it be dis
obeyed, the court may then determine its remedy.
judge Ludlow wii/1, before determining on granting
the writ, he would Inquire whether tho returns were not
iu safe bunds. , . ,
The counsel for relators did not know anything fur
ther, except that Hie leturns had been placed in x tlio
hands of tho president of the Board.
After some further discussion. Judge Ludlow said that,
in order that it might not ffppfftr he had boon hasty in
*lhis matter, if the counsel wishes to amend the return
•• filed, he would adjourn the hearing till this morning.
Mr. Thayer repliod that Mr. Green, one of the return
judges, was present: he could answer for himself.
Mr. Thayer consulted with Mr. Green, and soon re
plied that the latter did not wish to amend the return
filed in the ittemtag.
Judge Ludlow then said, believing, as lie did, that
reasons of a public nature require ibat this cause should
be disposed of at the earliest possible moment, he should
now proceed to decide it. This was the first time within
his knowledge that the clients represented by a gentle
man at the bar had left the latter without communicating
with him. Why they had not done so was no reason
why the proceedings of the court should be delayed.
It seemed there was no intention to amend the return,
but these gentlemen desired the judgment of the court,
and, therefore, ub matter of law, ho would proceed to de
termine the case. Nor was It to* be understood, the opin
ion about to bo delivered is tho result of hasty action
upon the part of the court. We would do injustice to
dutselvtg if we did not publicly ductaro that for nearly a
week the whole subject lius been under investigation.
first opinion delivered in this causo was the
result of a deliberate conviction. 'TUc,_Bpocitic ad
vice given, ou Tuesday, to the prothonotary was the
result of the same deliberate conviction. Nothing could
have tempted him to order tho prothonotary to certify a
single return. Tho right of this court, or of the judge,
to issue the mandamus was based upon a construction of
the acts of Assembly. He fell into error as to tho date of
one act, but that the court possessed the power he could
not doubt. If this should appear to bo a mistaken view,
no attachment will be issued against the respondents.
The questions of law which arise from this act of man
damus have fllw Hoff the subject of consideration. So
far, then, as the merits of the cause nro concerned, the
opinion was well considered by him, and not a hasty
judgmeut.
The Judge finally entered judgment on the demurrer,
and granted a writ of mandamus, returnable this after
noon at six o’clock.
The court then adjonmed,
Another Meeting of the Return Judges.— Last eve
ning, after the decision of the court, A number of the re
turn judges assembled in the Supreme Court room. B. L.
'Wright, Esq., in the absence of the chairman, was called
to the chair, hut, there being no quorum present, the
meeting was adjourned until this morning at 9 o’clock.
The Navy Yard.— Business at the navy
yard has much increased of Ute—so much, indeed, that
the lately mooted extension of its area is more than ever
talked of. Already the workmen have to resort to all
sorts of Bluffs and manoeuvres to accomplish the simplest
pl6*d of work, if tho material to bo handled happeiu to bo
of unusual bulk.
To remedy this incohvenience, which is owlug to the
vast increase of work, several of the shops arc being, or
are to be, enlarged. The enlargement of the gun-carri
age shop, which was done some months ago, has not af
forded sufficient room for the increase of work, and Addi
tional accommodation will be necessary if the orders con
tinue to come in as they have .done for the past few
months. Carriages »ro made there for all tho vessels fit
te 1 out at this port, while in the other shops work is only
done for the Government vessels fitted out at the navy
yard. The blacksmith and plumber shops, though re
cently enlarged, are not yet largo enough for the addi
tional work required to be done in them.
To give the reader some idea of the numerical strength
of the navy-yard “brigade,” we subjoin the rolls of the
different departments, from which it wilt be seen that a
larger force of men aro now engaged here than has ever
been the case in any previous year:

The quantity of ordnance stored in tho yard is—large
enough. It is unnecessary that we should go into de
tails, for reasons which must be manifest to everyono.
Outside of the largo ship-house there arc twenty.one
eight and ten-inch Dahlgrens and five smaller ooes, of
six-inch bore. Just opposite, that is, on the outside of
the smaller 6hip-house, there are eleven six-inch Dahl
grens. There are quite a large number of heavier guna
outlie plot of ground east of tlm commandant’s office.
The majority of these have been scraped and repainted
recently. The eight and ten-inch guns belong to the
United States steamer Brooklyn , having been removed
from her about tliree weeks since, to permit of her over
hauling. They will mostly require new carriages.
Large numbers of Daldgren guns have recently ar
rived here from Pittsburg. In connection-with this sub
ject, we learn that a new proving ground will soon he oc
cupied, in the vicinity of Wall’s station, on the Pennsyl
vania Railroad. It is designed to use the ground in prov
ing the heavy guns now being constructed at the Fort
Pitt works, and thus avoid the necessity of unshipping
them. In using the proving grounds above Tarontum
on. A. V. B. 8., the ordnance is brought back to the
arsenal, and stored there uutil ordered to some other
point for USC, lot RS the Dalilgren guns are required
immediately iu the East, they are not stored. A switch
runs out from the road into the proving ground, and the
cars containing the guns are pushed out on the sideing,
and left there until the guns are unloaded, proved, and
reloaded, when the car can be taken Eastward without
further delay. As the guns are proved by ten rounds of
service charges, the firing takes longer lime than on the
ltodman guns, and a heavy cast iron carriage has been
constructed for the purpose of mounting them.
Yesterday, wliile we stood in the yard, four furniture
cars filled with shells were unloaded opposite the ord
nance department. We noticed their arrival in Phila
delphia a few days since.
The timber principally used in the yard is white oak
um UCBI itmi vim bo proouroJ for tbp iuirpnGf,. V wrznorly
largo supplies of live oak came to us from Florida; but,
from obvious causo6, we are no longer in lecelpt of it,
aud have, consequently, turned to Delaware and Mary
land for a proxy. The white oak of the former generally
attains n height of from sixty to eighty feet, and, in this
respect, makes an excellent ship timber.
Within’the past month or so we have boen getting ex
cellent white oak from Chester and other neighboring
counties, via the North Pennsylvania Railroad. It is
principally brought in planks, varying in thickness from
two to six inches. We know of one party in Chester
county who is now engaged in filling a contract with the
Government for four hundred thousand feet of such tim
ber. It Is worth in the forest, before felling, one cent
per foot. By the time it is delivered in this city it is ge
nerally worth about 535 per thousand feet. Wilmington
and New Castle have latterly awakened to a sense of the
importance and value of their oak forests, and the result
is that such timber lands have considerably risen in
value. It takes about two bundled and twenty thousand
fctt pf white oak to build one of the new Government gun
boats, from which tlio reader elm judge for Idmsclf the
total amount consumed since the Navf Department or
dered their constructioo.
The Wissahickon r which lies just below the navy yard,
will probably receive her armament to-day, as, with that
exception, she is complete and ready to put to sea. A de
scription of her appearance and interior arrangements
may be worth Inditing ;
The captain’s cabin, which we first entered, has a Con
tinental air of neatness and comfort about it, that we had
little expected to sec on board a vcssel-of-war. Tho
Uoor was covered with Brussels carpet; the furniture,
including a pier table, lounge, and reception chairs, was
of highly-polished walnut, and the ceiling had evidently
been treated to an extra coat of pure white-load, that
aWne like Clnua-gloss. On eieli side of the mirror, op
posite the door, are bookcases, and behind the lounges
ample storage room is provided, in a sort of Burroptitious
Avuy, that would scarcely strike a visitor’s notice.
Adjoining are the captain’s sleeping apartment, a pan
try, storoorom, etc , all fitted up in the walnut fashion,
A sufficient amount of light and ventilation is secured by
means cf four port#—two on either side of the vessel.
Next in order is the ward-room, which contains six
double-berthed state-rooms, each of which is fitted up
with a cloeet and wash-stand. Below is the storeroom,
which is only accessible by means of a hatch. The sin
gular and romantic arrangement of having a trap doorto
open; through the oilcloth, follows as a necessity. You
would not notice it at first, for the trap fits very evenly,
And it wau no blundering hand that matched its oilcloth
pattern with that upon the floor.
Thence we were ushered into the steerage, where the
meet? and engineers consort. It invites no description,
but is neat and trim to.view. It is immediately adjacent
the engine room, through which we pass, and, ascending
a perilous ladder, are onco again on deck. The steering
apparatus is of solid mahogany and locust. The hide*
ropes attached to it arc somewhat of a novelty, and as
« tough as oak,” but require to be soaked in oil to be
made sufficiently pliable. Passing a bell inscribed—
“ United States Gunboat WtssaAtcfcott, John Lynn, buil
der, 1861 ” —wc come to a coil of leather hose. In case
of fire it is ready to be attached to a pipe from tbo en
gine, and will lead to any part of the vessel—even to the
powder magazine. The forward berth is chiefly noticea
ble as being the sleeping-place of the crew, who repose
111 lianimOCke suspended from the ceiling. In a comer is
the doctor’s dispensary, provided with medicine-shelves,
and a desk for writing out prescriptions upon, which can
be folded away into invisibility with wonderful presti
tidigitatical effects. Back a piece is the culinary
department—if a cooking stove concealed from view by
potß and pans and kettles can lay claim to such a term.
Still backward a piece is the general stove-room, with
copper tanks for the oil, tumntmo, and paints, which
arc treacherously combustible to have aboard a ship.
The armament (as we have said above) completes the
vessel. We have already described itju these columns,
and bave nothing to add to that description.
At high water on Saturday next, the new war vessel
Miami will be launched at tho navy yard. This is one
ofthe new side-wheel tteamera ordered by tbo Govern
ment. Tickets for the launch will be issued by Captain
Turner, at tho navy yard.
At the shipyard of Mr. John Lynn, below the navy
yard, the new propellor for the Boston line of steamers
is nearly finished, and will be launched on Wednesday
next, bhe is to lie called the Barton we believe.
After the Barton is fairly off the stocks, another pro
peller for the mine Jine will be commenced. Her frame
Is now being prflporcd. "
Tiie Philadelphia and Erie Railroad—
The Leash Confirmed. —Yesterday morning the stock
holders of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Company

pointed tellers to take a stock vote upon tho resolution
offered by the Board of Managers, to accept the acts of
the Logislnturo, and approve tho lsasa and contract!

o’clock, to allow time for taking the vote.
The meeting reorganized at the time named at the ad
journment. The tellers reported tlmt 27,515 votes had
