no review at this date is necessary, as the Mete have
been thoroughly dismissed by the prep, and it is
hoped the Goiernment is fullyomlightened in regard
to the whole affair.

the disembarkation of Montgomery's brigade. Sel.
dom have soldiers left a place with greater reluc
tance than this command took leave of that beauti.
fu/ town The place, by DOM and a liberal Use of
the spade, has been made
,very strong, and could
have been easily detended. The landing was good,
the river at this placo is broad and grand, and the
whole surrounding country. pleasant. It was hoped,
too, that active Mentions Would loon commences

be found only in a. remote datal. Somata St. „lrohns ;
but all these pretty thifltiffillMdrtrettier flisszast
were suddenly broken up by an order to abandon
the place.
The reasons which operated in producing this re.
cult may be briefly • stated l a hleut. Gem Grant's
policy of concentration of troops is to be felt in this
department. AU regiments not needed at any post
, ate to be removed to plans where their services Gan
be made available. As we have ceased to be r offen.
sivein our'operations, more men were found posted
in different places than'were needed for defensive
purposes. Pleolatt could be held by one-third the
force necessary to hold Pflatka, and would give us
nearly as good facilities for operating against the
enemy. The change relieves at least one brigade
for service in some other place. This point, Jack
sonville, and St. Augnatine, are so situated that
they can mutually support each other in case of
danger or an attack.
Whilst IBeauregard continues his healquartere in
Florida we may expect
Will be restless, and at least demonstrative. On the
15th instant, 001. Barton, with 500 mounted men
and one piece of artillery, went out on a reconnoie•
ailneo, drove lee the enomy , a' vedettea, and premised
upon the main body as far as possible, without
bringing on a general engagement. He has evidently
been preparing to attack us for some time past, and
this fact may haVe hastened the evacuation. In
the after part of the' day Montgomery's movements
attracted his attention, and no one doubts we shall
be honored with a parting salute from skulking
skirmishers: But thejiisembarkation will be cover
ea by the powerful - armament of the gunboat Otte
wa, whlctuls a guarantee of perfect safety. A citi
zen came into our lines yesterday, and brought the
important information that three wagon loads of
torpedoes had been brought into the vicinity of the
St. Johns, where the channel is quite narrow, at•

destruction of our transports.

INCIDENTS 07 TEE OLOUSTEZ BATTLE.
I have noticed extraida from the rebel press
which state that in the Oloustee battle a Georgia
regiment of regulars was badly . ; out up, and lost
heavily in officers. FA gentleman from Lake duty, of
much intelligence and apparent probity, came into
our lines, a few days since, who tells us that this
slaughter took place in a desperate hand•tohand
engagement with the North Carolina colored troops.
This is the first positive intelligence we have re
ceived as to what troops were opposed to, these
North Carolinians in that encounter, the fiercest
that took place during the day. This gentle.
man states that the courage of the colored
troops is acknowledged, but reluctantly, and that
they are well treated. A badly wounded col•
dier met on the battie•fleld his old master, whom he
had not seen for two years. The old master treated
him kindly, took- him to his own home, and rio
doubt will try t o o make him a friend. It is evident
the policy of the South is fast changing in regard to
colored troops. They have learned that it Is far bet,
ter by kindness to make them friends than by harsh
usage to increase the enmity and widen the gulf
between them. The evacuation of Pilatira was
made in Safety, and everybody and everything were
brought away. VIDE.
This place is to be stronglyfortifted, and, according
to present orders and appearances, permanently held.'
A large 'detail Of men is at work constructing an
earthwork, in the centre of which is to be built a
strong block.house. This fort is to be surrounded
by a stockade, and in every way made so strong and
heavily armed that but two companies will be re
quired to hold the place . A. liberal supply of guns,
well posted in a fortified position, seems to be the
favorite policy at present.

Finnegan's ramp, to see his. family, but was really
sent out tO get what information he Gould in regard
to our forces at Filatka. By adroit management
Colonel Montgomery got from him the entire objeot
of his minion. Finnegan had been ordered some
time ago to attack Filatka and clean our forces out
of there but after.feeling of our lines he concluded
it was not safe to make the attempt. For mime time

after the repulse at Fort Willimns. AS the hour

on Forts Williams and Comfort as well as on the

intoned during Tuesday night, and the overwhelm
ing forces hurled against our weak and already
chattered • column was too much to endure, and
being out of ammunition, and out off from a further
aupply, General Wessels could do-no low than !sur
render, or have all his< command annihilated. The
garrison of Fort Gray-no doubt fought nobly to the
last; but, being out off from the main command,
hope of deliverance, had to succumb also.
We have no advisee from this post; but eommon

THE PIRATE FLORIDA,
AN ACCOUNT OF. HER. VISIT TO MADEIRA,
A correspondent of the New York Mies, on hawed
the United States ship St. UMW writes from Totio
rifle, Maroh 18, aa foliowa :
When I wrote from Funchal, Madeira, on the 26th
February, I had no idea of ever seeing the pirate
Florida, but on the morning of the 28th what should
greet our astonished vision but a rebel flag of fabu
lous dimensions, floating at the peak of a steamer
anchored about a thousand yards diotant, directly
between us and the town of Funchal. At about
nine A. M. we ascertained her to be the above
mentioned steamer. She arrived on the evening of
the 27th, trout Brest.
Ir any or your readers are gifted with an extremely
lively, imagination, they can perhaps form someidea
of the excitement on board the St. Louis. All even
our messenger boys, were anxious to have a clap at
her. As she appeared to be - very light, we preowned
that she had little or no eoal, and as we linderskurd
that we brought despatches from Don Luts,King
of Portugal, to the effect that no vessel belonging
to the No-called Confederate Government should be
furnished with any munitions of war ' we laid the
flattering unction to our Amnia that she could got
none here.
. .
The commander of the Florida, (Lieut. 0. M. Mor
ris, late of the United States blavy,) made a call
upon the Governor of the island. A short time after
wards, our acting consul, Mr. Robert Bayman,
Called upon the Governor, and entered a protest in
the name of his Government against the Florida
coaling. The Governor promised our consul she
Should have no supplies there of any kind. How
far he kept his.promise the following will show:
The rebel called again upon the Governor, and told
him that coal, at least forty tone of it, was necessa
ry, as his ship needed it for ballast. The Governor
told him as he came in without it he thought he
could go to sea without it ; however, if ballast was
absolutely Indispensable, that he was at liberty to
take as many atones from the heath as he liked.
But the outside pressure upcin the Governor was
too great, and he gave her permission to take
enough to take her to the nearest port, providing it
did not exceed twenty tons.
I think the scales where it was weighed must
have been well greased, as the twenty tons loaded
six large lighters. The consul then protested against
this, telling the Governor that it was against the
instructions he received from his Government.
For my part, I cannot see why the pirate could not
go around the world in spite of any such hindrance
as'.this, for if she Can -get enough in every port
she goes to to carry her to the next, what more
does she wants Immediately after we asoer
tained her true character, (on the morning of the
28th,) we hove in on our cable to fortrilve fathoms,
that being as little as we could ride by. We also
loaded the small arms. This Was all We could de
under the circumstances. Otter she received her
-supposed twenty tons of coal, she made preparation
for sea, and so did we, but the very time that she
lett F unobal, on the night of the 29th, at 8.30 P. .M.,
it was a cairn, and we could do nothing. Had wo
poeseiied that all-essential auxiliary in modern na•
vigation—steam—escape of the pirate would have
been impossible. I trust that our merchants will,
by all means, impress upon the Navy Department
the necessity of substituting steamers for ulna;
vessels, and urge the Secretary of the Nicvy to have
a steamer stationed at each of these 'elands.
On the morning of March 1 a light breeze sprung
up, and, as we leaned that the pirate had shaped his
course for this port, (" Santa Oruz,") we got under
way. After six days' beating we arrived at this
place, and upon our aiilval we learned that the pirate
had been here, coaled, and went to sea the day pre
vious to our arrival, (6th March.) It is reported,
and I think correctly, that she has gone to the East

TRS AZYOII2IOIOIBNT DILL,
The session is fast drawing to a close. It is now
expected that both Houses will adjourn on the fifth
day of May. Some time Since, the Senate pissed a
resolution to adjourn on the 28th of this Month.
The - House has not adopted this, because much im
portant public business yet remains unfinished.
The apportionment bill first passed the Senate,
and hes now passed the House with a great number
of amendments. Some of them will not be con
muted in by the Senate, and the result will be that
a committee of conference will be appointed, and
when or how the matter will end I cannot imagine.
Messrs. Lee, Henry, and 'Guernsey have been ap p
pointed the committee of conference upon the part o
the House. The Senate committee is composed of
Messrs. Connell, Graham, and Kinsey. No Democrats
were tplaeed upon the House committee, for the
reason that every Democrat of that body voted
against the bill, the rule being to appoint none but
the friends of a measure upon a 'valorem com
mittee.
Thhi committee have a bard task before them, and
they will be lucky indeed if they can harmonize the
discordant elements in the Union ranks. The Rouse
has changed the Senate bill materially in that part
of it which relates to your city. Not being well
arnuainted with the different rdards, I cannot give
you the particulars. ,The Senate bill gave one Sena•
for to the Democrats. The Rouse bill so changed it
that it gave the whole four to the Republicans, yet
in a measure endangering the whole by making the
majorities very light. Senator (lonieU is opposed to
the change made by the House, and I think the Se
nate proposition will be reinstated. In the lower
House your city gets eighteen members, which is an
increase of one, and by the House bill the Republi
cans will get fourteen of that number.
Allegheny gains one member and Butler loses one.
Here is now the great difficulty. Either Butler or
Damneder must lose one representative.. They
have not gained in population as rapidly all some
other portions Of the State, and they were found,
upon a careful calculation, to be below the ratio.
After a long controversy Butler was given one mem
ber, but Lawrence and Butler Were made a Senato
rial district, which is the lightest in the State; so
that her for Representative will only niake up
for her deficiency for Senator,
The Butler members are very hostile to the bill,
and voted against it on the final passage. Upon the
whole the bill is a fair one ' much fairer towards the
Democrat' than the one framed by the Democrats
seven years ago was towards the Republicans. •
As might be expected, the Democracy is ;strongly
opposed to the hill, alleging that it is very unfair
towards them. True, some of the Democratic din.
trieta are very large ; so are some Of the Republi
lien. For instance, the counties of Erie and Craw
ford have but one Senator, with 24,112 taxable',
While Busks has a Senator, With:15,945 taxable'.
It is no easy task to frame a bill of this kind
which will be equal in all its bearings. The best
thing has been done which eould be done under the Mr
eurnstanees. 'Where so many interests are to be
served all cannot be suited. Each member desires a
district which will be favorable to himself. Renee
the difficulties that hare arisen. •
Olmstead, the chairman of the apportionment
committee, has conducted himself upon this, as upon
all other questions, with fairness, energy, and abili
ty. It is no disparagement of others to say that he
is one of the ablest men of either branch of the
Legislature in point of honesty of purpose, mental
ability, and manner and style of speaking. He is
always at his post, ever ready to favor an honest
measure ever ready to denounce diehonest one.
His spe ech against the charter of the 011 City Bank
is one'of the most telling and forcible of the session.
By the way, this bill (and it passed by a strong
vote), gives Vre corporators power to start a bank
under the earmarking gyrates of this State with a
capital of one million of dollars. It will.be another
swindling' operatlon, and I can only wonder that an
honest man could have voted for it. It will be like
the long list of banimthat have disgraced the north
western portion of the State, which have been
started by New York swindlers only to cheat the
people.
Nearly thirteen hundred bills have bean reported,
and the greater =unbar have passed both Houses.
Nine-tenths of them are private bills, and relate to
every imaginable subject, and they are now being
Pulled in great numbers under the suspension of
the rules t which ki a very unsafe manner of Legisla
tion. A large ,number are for the purpose of in
corporating railroads and coal andiron companies.
This Legislature is passing a great number of bills
of a novel character. Any quantity of acts are being
passed to enable parties to mine gold and silver,
and hold and dispOse of real estate, in. Colorado,
Idaho, and all Other conceivable places. Upon the
Ant view, it would seem as though they were ex
feeding iilolr jurisdiction by passing laws of an ex
traderritorlal character. many of them will only
be paper companies; never have an existence in
fact. Then' stook will be put upon the market, and
the public fleeced as, soundly sad effectually g
possible. Such is thi end in too many eospoutiores
t o which fhb Legislature gives birth. They cannot
be too careful in giving a company of men power by
which, if they choose to use it, an honest public
may be swindled. •

offereirto raise for the service of the General 4o
ternminit 85 000 , men, for the period of one hundred
day e, to perform such military service as may be re.
gutted of them in any State. They will be armed,
subsisted, clothed, and paid by the United States,
but receive no bounty. They will be niustered into
the service of the United States for the period desig
natekthe time to 00mmenee front the date of mus
ter. The importance of making the apPronohlnff
campaign successful and decisive is not to be over.
estimated, and I feel confident that this oall will be
promptly and fully responded to. I used not enter
into the reasons which have induced the seeking of
this offer, and its acceptance by the Government, as
they will be suggested to all by. the condition and
position of our military affairs. .
"I, therefore, call for 20,000 volunteers, to ren
dezvous at such places as may be hereafter delal.
mated, and to be organized under inatruetiona to be
given by the Adjutant General. .Exiating organiza

will be preserved when the regiment or oonipany is
filled to the minimum number under- the regulations
governing the Army of the United States.
