The alleged teml official announcement in

blockade, which is intended to operate against
Commerce with the disloyalists.
A number of the most distingniahsd1 srmy

El Minister Charles J. Faulkner, who has
recently returned from France, was to-day
arrested and eonODed iu the city prison. He
ie charged witb aiding the 11 bels' agents,
obtaining arms in Europe, nod in being about
to assume the cotnmuud of a Rebel brigade
in -Virginia. There is considerable excite'

Nothing was allowed to bo removed from it,
although he desired that his personal effects

cessary for bis comfort, however, was readily
funnelled. The evidence against bim is said
to be strong, and it no doubt is, as be is
cooGned in the common j ul of the District,
llocock, of Jefferson county, Virginia, and
formerly a member ot Congress, is bis sou-to-luw.
The arrest of Charles J. Faulkner, ei'mio
Jeter to France, was ellected to day by a
detachment of the Provost Uuard, who or
that purpose repaired to his hotel. He was
conveyed to the jail onder orders from the
military authorities, through the War De
partment. He is not permitted to bold
correspondence or conversation with any ot
bis Irieuds, at preseat.' As to tbe specific
charges under wbicb he is beld, they are, so
fur as the public ie concerned, mere matters
of speculation, but something has been suid
about his having a commission as a brigadier
general in the Hebel Army. A formal ex
animation into tbe case will, however, eoou
take place. Shortly after his err Ft he
remarked that he was not aware of having
done anything to justify these proceedings,
and but for them be would have bad bis
accounts settled to-duy at the Slate Depart1
dent, which be bad visited the duy after his
arrival in Washington on that business, ua
well as to call on Secretary Reward, in ac
cordance with tbe courtesy governing minis
tars returning from abroad.
The Territory of New Mexico Is to be
protected by two voluuteer regiments, raised
within its own limits. One, if not both, of
them will be mounted. Colonel Pino com
manda one regiment, and Col. St. Vraio tbe

Lieutenant Colonels. The Territory will be
able to supply tour regiments.
Batteries ure now being erected at Qoan
ticoke Creek, on tbe Potomac, a position
which is at right angles with Mauassas

In preventing a flank nioveaieut of Federal

It is estimated that the loss incurred by

of their beeatilul town, is at least $800,000.

G3 News After the exciting news of the
recent battle at Manassas and Bull's Run,
there has been but little news to keep up the
previous excitement, and some of tbe senta

themeelves considerably at fault in supplying
tbe usual omount of sensation news.

been located over forty years, to the farm of

greatly dissatisfied, as it is about eeveo miles
east from one office to the other. We koow

General McDowell has at length made Lis
official report of lift battle near Manassas.
Bui eighteen thousand men on our side
participated iu the battle, but how many were
engaged on the other side? Gen. McDowell,
in the absence of reliable duta, with tbe re
serve of a true soldier aud sensible man, does
cot attempt to slate in any definite wuy
He says, however, that the, enemy brought up
all the men he could ; that to the forces driv.
en back from Fairfax, Germautown uud Ceu
treville, are to be added those brought by
Johnston from Wiuchesler, and from Rich
mond and other places South by Davis, and
that all these certainly amouuted to many
more than be attacked them witb. There
can be no doubt of this whatever,
In referring to the cause of defeat, in tbe
conclusion of his report, Geo. McDowell lays
great stress on the delays be encountered in
moving irom ins iulrenchweiits opposite
" asuiugion. i nese neiuys, wuicb consumed
a week, were occasioned urimanlv bv the lack
of suQicieut transportation j but even then
tbey would not have been disastrous, bad it
col been lor stilt another loss ol one or two
precious days ou the march. Two days were
consumed in marcning Irom lenna to Ceu
treville, twelde nod a hall mile. Tbe attack.

Oor neighbor of tbe Northumberland
County Democrat published in bis last paper
his own speech, delivered in Tarbntville, In
1806. Mr. Tardy hnseihnmed this forgotten
relic of political literature for the purpose of
showing that he Is prophet as well as an
orator, forgetting the old adage that "a
prophet has no honor io his own country."
That the speech Is characteristic of its author,
no one will douht, who will takt the trouble
to read it.
That snch a speech should be delivered In
the heat of a political contest is perhaps not
snrprisine, many vain, amhitinua, and often
reckless politicians, embrace these oppnrtn
niti to let off their superabundant gas,
withnnt regard to Its offensive qnalities, or to
truth, history, philosophy, or the ordinary
proprieties of life. This may be excnseble,
or at least tolerated since, as the world is
ennstitnted, we have no right to expert that
all orators are Solomons In wisdom, or Weh.
sters In argument. But that a sensible man
should disinter, after a five years' hnrinl,
under the darkest shades of oblivion, and
publish, in these exciting times, in bis own
columns, such a tissue of slanders, absurdi
ties and blunders, is indeed surpiising.
Mr. Purdy commences his speech with an
astounding postulate in moral ethics, as
follows :
"I have never, M r. President, been inclined
to doubt the integrity of the laboring man."
Why should Mr. Pordy, or any one else
suggest a douht that a man's integrity should
be qnestioned becanse.be was compelled to la
hnr? Labor is not only honorable, but the
great Author of oar being has instructed us
that labor is the normal condition of man, and
there was certainly do occasion to enlighten,
or rather to insult bis readers by teaching
them that a man might be a laborer, and yet
en honest man. But this will suffice for onr
neighbor's philosophy. His next position is
more practical, though not less absurd. He
then proceeds as follows: "I speak not, Sir.
from party prejudice when 1 say that tbe
supporters of Republicanism are sectional
mulcooteuts ; for I believe them to be more :
I believe them to be bigots, wedded to tbe
creed of Abolition and 'dissolution;' or in
otber words, disur.iooists."
Now, we ssk every candid, honorable man,
without regard to his politics, whether be is
willing to subscribe to such a miserable,
wholesale slander upon bis neighbor 1
There is ecarety a liberal minded Democrat
in this county wbn will not point to many of his
Republican neighbors and acquaintances
pulriotic and liberal minded men, of charac
ter and standing, and say that this attempt
to stigmatise some of our best citizens as
Abolitionists and disuoionists, Is u contemp
tible slander, la it a wonder, then, that true
Democrats and loyal citizens should shun
and avoid associating witb a leagued band of
office hunters, who, onder the Dame of De
mocracv, establish a paper solely for the
purpose of advocating tbeir own selfish
schemes for office, eD) place in the editorial
chair a comparative stranger, who is suffered
to traduce all outside of the ring which con
stitutes the clique? Is it not too much to
expect freemen and Democrats to receive
their instruction from the oracle placed io
the attic of the three story temple, over
which Deacon Purdy presides with a sardonic
gravity which would have done no discredit
to the priests of the D.-lphic temple.
Our neighbor, in his speech, quotes largely
from Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, and
others, down to Wendell Phillips, as men
sometimes quota from Sciipture, to prove
iIib most absurd theories. Mr. Purdy, with
characteristic unfairness, mokes Wendell
Phillips an exponent and leader of tbe
Republican party. We have beard Mr.
Phillips, in New York, denouncing the Re
publicans in 00 measured terms. His small
party are about as much entitled to be colled
Republicans as our neighbor and the Breck
iuridge clique' in this county are entitled to
he called Democrats. They are both dan
gerous excresences, end should he shunned
and avoided as a healthy man would a leper
It is well known that we earnestly support
ed the election of Judge Douglas, in opposi
tion to Mr. Lincoln; and that we bad also
been opposed to t lie election fcf Col. Fremont :
but we cannot, as patriots and byal citizens,
refuse to support President Liucolu's Admin,
i-lrutioo in tbe prosecution of tbe war. And
we luok upon every attempt to obstruct the
President in bis efforts tu crush this rebellion,
directly or iudireclly.nr by creating oii-sensions
or impairing the confidence of tbe people in
our Government, not only us being objection
ablu, but treasonable in its character. We
would ask, what good purpoBH is to be effect
ed by the publication of Bucb ioflumatory
productior.8 ? Is it to put down the rebellion,
or is it uot, rulher. to create sympathy for tbe
Rebels, aud give to them aid aud comfort T

to the deliberate opinion ol the Houte of Repre

supremacy of tbe Constitution, and to preset ve
Ihe l-nion, with all the dignity, equality, and
rights ufthe several (States unimpaired ; and that
aa soon as these objects are accomplished tbe
war ought to cease
A division of the resolution having been ob
tained, so as to elicit a separate and explicit ex
pression of opinion upon each of the t-o -heads
embraced in it, the vole was first tuken upon the
following dtclarat ry clause, touching the historic
origin ot tbe war, and consequently the relative
moral responsibility of those who aro the parlies

of Ibe Congrett uf the Doited States, That the

Upon this brunch of the resolution the House
pronounced its verdict in tbe following decided

by a temporary permission from the Privy
Coaoctl to suspend specie payments. Th S
suspension WaS afterwards legalised by Far

sit hundred and forty bine millions of dollars,
while the specie io the Bank of England was
but little over ten miliums of dollars.
If it be asked bow England not only stood

We are twice as able as England was to
carry no a war even or tbal great length and

the exact double, and our wealth mure than
double that of England in 1 193. specie Trom

lies idle and rusting ; our imports are greatly
reduced ; onr exports of breadstuff sod meats
are much larger thanev-r: and our mariu
fuctures will be strengthened and eularged by

Some persons, whether timorous or unin

tu mote sinking lot in, eigbtybve hundred
