Paiii) Jto&t P'y SA.IU OFFICIAL paper of the city' THE EFFECTS OF SOUTHERN HE- Dißhcmesty, whether in individuals or communities, is a chicken which invariably comea.home to roost. It is within the mem ory of man that Mississippi -and several othephtf the Southern seceded States repu diated large amounts of indebtedness, most ly due to European' creditors, and in Mis sissippi Jefferson Davis, the Captain Gen «rtd,-Of this rebellion was the chief champion of'Uubrepudiation. Alabama and Florida, to some extent, were also guilty of repudia tion. Now they come to apply in Euroj>e for loans, but the sin of repudiation which lies at their doors and has never been for gotten in Europe since the day it was com- mitted, rises up in judgment against them. They can get nojmoney— nobody will trust h them. i Since this rebellion has broken out these States have again commenced their old game of repudiating their honest debtß due . by their own citizbas to the citizens of the loyal States and the amountof indebtedness thus repudiated amounts to millions of dollars. The morality of this course is ahooking to every honest man. The moral sense of Christendom is shocked by this want of commercial honor and common honesty. Whatever may be the result of this war, and its result i 9 not doubtful, the credit of these States is gone forever. Re turn to loyalty wdl not re-establish the credit of the Southern people as a debt paying community. The odor of repudia tion will stick to them for generations yet to come. That cause which endeavors to support itself by dishonesty, can never pros per. It is not an honest cause, and rests on a bad basis. From the first, secession has had itsw:'hief support in fraud and treachery. It is in itself a fraud, a wrong and a despotism against which the people of the South themselves would soon revolt even it it obtained a temporary triumph. Secession can never prosper, because it is neither honest in its principles nor its prac tices. It repudiates not only its just debts, but disregards every moral principle, the observance of which by States, communities and individuals is absolutely essential to public and private prosperity. The military ardor which this war has aroused throughout the country will here after render necessary the preparation on the part of the government of a-far greater amount of arms and munitions of war than have heretofore been manufactured in the country. The destruction of the arsenal at Harper's Ferry has been a serious loss to the government at the present time, and Congress when it meets will undoubtedly make immediate provisions lor the estab lishment of oua m its place. But from pres* ent indication one will not be sufficient. — There la no reasou why this government 1 should in any future contingency ever be ooinpelled to import arms from foreign na tions. We can manufacture them ourselves. We have all the materials, all the mechani cal skill and every other requisite tor this. All we need is the establishment of great national workshops for the purpose. Pittsburgh is in all respects the most: available point in the country tor the loca tion of a national armory. The heaviest and best ordnance in the country has been cast here for years. The government.knows our resources and all our capabilities for doing this hind of work and all that is ne cessary to secure the location of a Foundry here,is tohave the subject properly brought before Congress. Petitions, although they may do good, are nQt enough. It will be necessary that men of competent military knowledge and practical experience should prepare a memorial giving a. detailed state ment of all the statistical facts bearing upon the subject which our location and resour ces present. This will be a basis for our Senators and members of Congress to act from in presenting the claims of Pitts burgh as a site for a National Armory to Congress. The system of life insurance is daily be coming more and more popular in this ooun try. Its first and highest object Uto afford perfect security that the policies will cer tainly be paid at .maturity. Those compan ies which can furnish undoubted evidence, both in figures and previous history of their transactions of ability and .intention to ful fill their contracts, are the only ones which are entitled to the confidence and patron age of the community. The obligations which a life insurance company assumes are of the most sacred character, and their funds should never be the subject of specu lation. The caah system of conducting its business is the most safe and sure for such an institution. The risk of loss is incom parably less than where notes are taken for policies. The Mutual Life Insurance company of New York, the advertisement of which ap pears in the columns of this paper, is one of the most cautious, Bafe, and thoroughly well conducted life insurance companies in the world. Its rates and conditions are such as will bear the closest arithmetic scrutiny.— It is now ready to issue policies to surgeons and ohaplains in the army, and to grant permits to military men upon certain con ditions which are liberaL Its terms and conditions for civilians are liberal, and may be ascertained upon application to ,the agents in this city, Messrs. Darlington & Blacks lock No. i 7 Fifth street, who will turnish hand books for examination to all parties 'desirous of effecting an insurance upon their lives. ■ ,: * -I. . • < .; ! • ** -* . •** , RHAY MORNING,: PUDIATION. A NATIONAL ARMORY, LIFE INSURANCE. THE CONDITION OF THE WAR. The most important movements recently madaty oqr troops have been in the cUreotion of Harper’s Ferry, upon which point it ia pretty blear that an early demonstration must inevitably be made. The Sixth Pennsylvania regiment has gone towards Hagerstown, it was supposed to Harpor's Perry. Pour Philadel phia regiments have also moved in the same direction. iJUNE 1. General McClellan has pushed the regiments from Ohio across the river—the Sixteenth regi ment, from the camp at Belleair, and the Fourteenth, under Colonel Stedman. The for mer moved on to Grafton, where the Virginia militia, commanded by Colonel Kelly, had preceded them from Wheeling, and the Four teenth took up a position at Parkersburg. The rebels had evacuated Grafton, and the Vir ginia troops of Colonel Kelly, together with the Ohio rogimeol, had possession of that place. By the latest news we learn that there are 10,000 rebel troeps concentrated at Harper’s Ferry, but that there is only a small force on the Maryland Heights, who are unprovided with cannon—information which does not tally with previous reports, as they were represen ted as fortifying themselves strongly on the Maryland shore. Koinforcdmonts are being thrown into For tress Monroe to strengthen Gen. Butler’s force, which as indicated by previous reports, is de signed to attack Hawaii's Point and Norfolk, the eastern base of the rebel lines. There are Bald to be 7000 rebels in the vi cinity of Fort Monroe. It is probable that fully 75,000 rebel troops are at this moment scattered through the State of Virginia, but the impression ofevery one who has seen them appears to be that although individually hardy, desperate and brave, good sharp-shooters, and excellent lighting men, they fall far behind the Northern troops in discipline, and when called upon to act together in masses, will be found to labor undor considerable disadvanta ges when compared with the Northern bol diers, who have been accustomed to manmuvre in regiments, brigades and divisions. The position of the federal troops around Washington has experienced no material chaage. THE “BIG SCARE” AT UNIONTOWN, The Genius of Liberty gives a detailed ac count of the excitement at Uniontown, caused by the report that the secessionists were threatening the Pennsylvania border with violence and raid. Three companies ot infantry, under Capt. F. H. Oliphant, took up their line of march for the border on Tuesday. Other companies came into the town armed and equipped, and a public meeting was held at the Court House, at which Gen. Joseph Markie, of Westmore land county, presided. The Genius forgels to mention that parties were despatched to Pittsburgh for arms and men, and spread the excitement here, causing our committee on Home Defence to issuo some most extra ordinary orders to the Colonels of three regiments of Home Guards to be ready to leave thoir homes on twelve hours notice. These demonstrations were fortunately all unnecessary, but the prompt response of the citizen soldiery of old Fayette to the call of what they supposed to be duty, shows their loyalty and patriotism. The Morgan town scare was a “big scare,” but like many of the events in this war, it resulted in “no body hurt." THE VOLUNTEER FORCE. No less than sixty regiments from New York have been accepted by the government up to this time, numbering in all some fifty thousand men. Tne government has also ac cepted several additional regiments from Illi nois, making a total from that State of eigh teen thousand men. From Pennsylvania, twentyanine regiments have been accepted and aDy number required are offering. Fully one hundred regiments, in all, have been aocepted from the States of New Yorx, Illinois and In diana, while the contingents from other States will swell the number to two hundred regi ments, or nearly two hundred thoosand men. Arrangements are making for a new levy of 100,000 men, which will probably be made as soon as Congress meets. Such a patriotic force as the people of the United Slates have offered to their government in the short space of Bix weeks, is a marvel in the history of the world and will strike the monarch! of Europe with astonishment at the voluntary military power of a free people. Militia and Army Navy of Gi eat Britain* The whole number of embodied militia of Great Britain is but 149,000, a little more than one third that of the State of New York.— Considering the population of both, the dis crepancy is remarkable enough. This is ex clusive of the volunteers, however, which number 200,000. The whole regular army, militia and volunteers, of Great Britain, num ber about 600,000, and the regular sailors of the fleet, 66,000; the volunteers of the fleet, in an emergency, would probably be 86,000 — making about 770,000 lighting men. This force coaid, however, be greatly inoreased in an emergency, and is exclusive) of the native army of India, which is probably a quarter of a million more. The Neyv York Second Regiment Disbanded. There is trouble is this regiment, which has resulted in a public disbanding of its members. The companies say they enlisted for three months only. They will not be reoeived by the Government for a less term than “the war.” Hence the trouble. They refuse to take the oath for the war—have had their dis charge from the regiment to the number of over flvo hundred, and will return to New York. The regiment will probably be reor ganized . Some of the men say that the cause of all the trouble may be attributed to the dis. qualification of officers for their positions. The Southern Loan. The fifteen million loan of the Southern con federacy, for which so much money was said to have been offered, still drags aloDg. The Southern journals are yet calling upon the people to come forward with their cash. As we shall receive no Southern mails after to-day, we will probably lose sight entirely of this great Southern loan. MilUons tor Defence- The successful bidders of the nine millions loan are rapidly paying their gold into the Sub-Treasury at New York. The deposits on this account on Monday exceeded $8,000,000, and an additional million was handed in on Tuesday morning. Tbe balance in the Sub treasury is nearly $9,500,000, and before tbe week closes will probably reach $18,000,000. Virginians Disbonding. Col. Lamon, District Marshal, had two brothers officers in the Virginia army at Har per’s Ferry. He has just received word that they have resigned, and that their companies have disbanded and gone home. The despatch also states that the balance of the troops are' half starved'and ready to desert at the first op portunity. _ »>'A'Mo?u.i mechanic has invented a revolv-i iDgtfullejt.

A TRIP FROM PITTSBURGH TO BALTIMORE. Baltimore, May 80. Delighted and encouraged by wbat 1 bad seen on my trip from Pittsburgh to Harris burg, I took the cars on Monday, destined for York, Panna. This ride Is along the grandest portion ol the Susquehanna At some points this river is very wide, taxing the finest optics to measure its expanse, while its numerous islands, whose thick foliage droop and kiss the streams, render it beautiful indeed. Unlike the Bcenery along the Pennsylvania road to Harrisburg, here our journey introduced us principally to cultivated fields, and rich farm houses, the residence of abundant wealth. After an hour and a half's ride we reached York, at which place Camp Scott is located.— This is a very old town, one of the oldest in the £>tate, dating back beyond the American revo lution. There, about that period, the Congress of the United States was in session, having fled therefor safety, and there in an old house, still inhabited, and nowcalled the Franklin, George Washington found shelter and repose. The proprielor of this house takes great delight in entertaining strangers with reminiscences of the scenes which occurred in his house, during the life of his grandfather. 1 fortunately happened to stop at the hotel at which Colonel Kowley, of your city was quartered. He politely invited me to visit the camp and witness the afternoon parade and exercises. In company with the Colonel I went, and the first thing of interest that oc curred on the ground, was a commotion at the upper end. An impulsive Hibernian, a mem> her of the Shield Guards of Pittsburgh, had taken too much ration, and was consequently boisterous and troublesome. Suddenly the Captain of the Guards made hia appearance at the head of a guard from the company, and in a loud, tragic voice exclaimed, “Silence, ob streperous traitor, your shrill throat offends our grave deliberations,'’ and with a graceful, though energetic gesture, he ordered the un ruly soldier to the “Bastile," which I after wards learned was the guard bouse. I was af terwards introduced to the intrepid Captain, and found him to be a fellow of most infinite jest He also seems impressed with the impor tance of the coming struggle, and declares his determination, should an opportunity present itself, to plant the stars and stripes upon the walls of the capital ol tbo vanquished rebels. He thinks the Government at Washington too slow for the crisis, and declares “ fiery expedition” neoessary when “traitors brave the field.” This gallant officer will make his mark, or I am no judge of valor.— His expedition in disposing of the unruly members of his company, impressed me with the idea that he was a very stern and exacting commander, and so he doubtless is, but still he is susceptible of very tender emotions, for about ten o'clock that evening, directly oppo site the hotel in which I was stopping, imme diately beneath the window of a house in which two charming creatures reside, he and a few other noble,swelling spirits, were engaged in singing adoLightfulseronade. The Captain sang the tenor, and succeeded in executing some of oar moat popular melodies, beginning with “Sleep and dream of me," and appropri ately closing the entertainment with “Wake when I touch my guitar." I was informed that the Captain, and others of generous im pulses, take this innocent mode of solacing themselves, in the evenings, after the daily fatigues of the Camp I forgot to mention that while on the Camp ground in the afternoon, sealed orders were re ceived for the Second and Third regiments to immediately march. They were drilling at the time, and when the order was read, I do Qc't think that I ever saw such a toene of ex citement. The men Bhouted until the very earth trembled, and the neighboring hills echoed back the joyous shouts. Cheer after cheer fairly rent the a>r,uotil the Colonel command ed them to their quarters to make immediate preparation for their departure. This was soon accomplished, and in ten hours time, two regi ments of fine looking fellows were m harness, ready for the march. It was now dark, and these two regiments, under the escort ol Col. Rowley's, started for the depot. When reach ing there they halted to await the arrival of the train. It appoarrd to me that the entire population of York lined the streets. Many of these brave fellows belonged to the town, and others had been there sufficient time to make pleasant acquaint mces. It was strange to walk along this line, and observe the peculiarities of different squads.— At the lower end were engaged a dozen of pious fellows singing “On the other Bide of Jordan, we’ll sound the Jubilee;” further up a company of Irishmen,in the greatest hilarity, screaming the [chorus of “Larey O’Gaff.”— Further on, a German company listening to patriotic airs from their brass band; and at the upper end a crowd of unmistakable sons of Uncle Bam,assuring each other that they would meet where the “possum and tbo coon did" at thz hatter's shop. The night before these regiments departed from York, I visited their camp, and in com pany wiio an officer, walked from tent to tent. About midnight, it presented a solemn and Impressive aspect, reminding me of the poet's description offield tho night before the decisivo battK of Agincourt: “From through ih« foul womb of ingbt, The ham of either army's stilly rounds. That the fixsd sentinels almost receive The secret whispers of eaoh other's watch; While some like sacrifices by their fires do watch. And only ruminate the morning's danger.” From York along the road to the Maryland line nothing particular, except tine houses and farms attracted my attention. From tho line to Baltimore may be seen stationed squads of soldiers, at every important point along the road. This duty devolves upon Col. David Campbell, of your city, whose head quarters are at Melville, three miles from Baltimore. At the line iB stationed company B, Captain Kennedy; four miles down, in Maryland, is company D, Oapt. Tomlinson; further down is stationed company F, Oapt O’Brien; next we come to company H, Oapt Lasure; next is located company K, Oapt. Denny, at Gun powder Bridge; at Cockeysville we saw Major Hays and company I, Oapt. Tanner; company G, Oapt. Cooper, is at the Relay House, and at Melville, the headquarters of the regU ment, are Col Campbell, Lieut. Col. M’Gimn, Adjutant Bonafon, and companies A, C, and E, with their respective Captains, McKee, Stewart and A&rmstrong. Melville is situated on Jones’ Falls, a beau tiful creek owned by the city of Baltimore, from whose never failing source that large city is supplied with water. Here I made the ac quaintance of a hospitable Maryland gentle man, Mr. Dunmae, a large property holder in that neighborhood, to whom I was Introduced by 001. Campbell. x The Colonel and those stationed at Melville' speak highly of this gen tleman and his family. The men here seemed in excellent condition, and eager for the field and fighL The Colonel himself is restless for the march, but at the same time is evidently impressed with thq magnitude of his charge. I predict a brilliant future for this gallant reg iment. Here in Baltimore secession is kept down only by the strong arm of federal power. The city is full of treason, which may be seen In looks and beard in whispers. The lesson they have been already taught, together with what is occurring in their midst every hour, only keeps them In subjeotion. .“This same strict and moat observant watch, So nightly toils the aatyeot ot the land, D&Uy oast of braaen cannon, implements of war, Suoh impress of shipwrights, whose sore task Does not divide the Sunday from the week, Making the night joint laborer with the day,” impress them with the conviction that their city’s safety or destruction depends solely upon IhMr discretion. I intend remaining here a day or two, and should I meet a friend going to Washington to spend a few days who has surplus cash, and is desirous of securing a pleasant traveling com panion, I think that, like Sir Richard Dazzel, I could be persuaded to “go along and stay with him.’’ BOYER. The price ot fire-arms in England has great* ly advanced in consequence of the demand from the United States.

The painful rumor of his death which prevailed in the morning in this: city, we are very happy to say was incorrect. Judge Taney. This celebrity has got his back up against the Administration because he finds his writ of habeas corpus somewhat impotent to bring forth the rebel Merriman. So he very gravely puts on file a sort of indignant protest, and no des Mr. Lincoln thereof, and waits to see the effect. Now it would be just like one of Lin coln’s capers to simply advise Judge Taney to paste his protest in the back of the Dred Scett decision and let it rest. Corwin’s Successor. In the 7th Oongreßional District, Mr. Oort win beat his competitor Telfair, last fall 7,611 votes. In the election for his successor, Har lan, the regular nominee of the Republican party, of the Brinkerhoff stripe, has been de feated by a Union man whom the Democrats pitted against him, Hon. R A. Harrison. The report that the traok of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is obstructed by a large rock at Point of Rocks is untrue. It is true, however, that the rebels displaced a rock, in tending it to close up the road, but it rolled across the track into the canal, where it now lies, obstructing navigation. ThU was a point beyond what the secessionists intended. President Davis has issued a proclamation, recommending)Thursday, the 14th of June, to be observed throughout jhe rebel confederacy as a day of fasting and prayer. As the 14th of June falls on Friday this year, we are at a loss to know which day Jeff, intends to be ob* The Blockade. The blockade will be effectually established by the first of June. Fifteen days’ notice are to be given of the actual blockade, after which commerce will be restricted. The Govern ment apprehend no doubt but the blockade will be respected by foreign nations. Telegraph Lines ou the Battle Grounds* Tne Government has received large quantb* ties of telegraph wire, and are erecting posts and putiag up wires as they advance into Vir ginia. These communicate with the depart ments in Washington. Frank Brownell, who shot Jackson, the murderer of Col. Ellsworth, in Alexandria, was formerly employed as a carrier of the Troy Daily Times. He telegraphed to bis father immediately after the death of the lamented Ellsworth, in the following laconic dispatch : Father. —Col. Ellsworth was shot dead this morning. I killed his murderer. Frank. The manufacturing intereU of Rhode island are suffering sadly from the general depression of the trade, consequent on the war. in nearly all the eatabhhnments on the west branch of the Moshassuck river work is suspended, In whole or in part. A joint-stock company is organizing at Hartford, Connecticut, with a proposed capi tal of $lOO,OOO, with liberty to Increase to $1,000.(XH), for the purpose of manufacturing a tivobarrel revolving pistol, which is already patented In this country and in Kurope. The Cincinnati papers state that Mites Green wood, of that city, has taken a govern ment contract for rifling old muskets, and will prepare eight hundred of these arms per day. Bunting and Hemp. A New York orator, in a late speech, as sured his auditors that the Union Sag would be soon waving at Montgomery, and that Jef ferson liavu would be waving beside it. Public Buildings Evacuated. The troops have all left the public buildings in the oily and gone into camp, or across the Potomac. A renovation is going on in each building. Army MoremeuU. A Washington correspondent of the Phila delphia Ledger, writes as follows: A Fabian policy *s likely to be adopted by General Lee as equally consistent with his qualities as a soldier and the circumstances of the South. Pitted against him in the Hold in front is Brig. Gen. McDowell, of whom army officers generally speak highly. Like Beaure gard and Bragg, he is said to have the true qualities for a general-in-chief. His com mand is such a one as in Europe would be given to a Lieutenant-General or a Marshal. He served with distinction as Aid of General Wool at Buena Vista and elsewhere, and is of theartillery army of the service, which is prima facie evidence of superior abilities. I bear from Alexandria that the 71st New York regiment left there this morning for For tress Monroe. The sending of that corps in that direction, taken in connection with the ordering of two Zouave regiments to the same quarter, indicates field movements. The col umn that is moving to Northwestern Virginia is to menace the communications of the forces at Harper's Ferry, and to hold out aid and comfort to the Union element in Western Vir ginia and East Tennessee. The fifth Pennsylvania Begiment crossed over to Virginia at about two o'clock this morning. Some District companies are under orders to cross to-night. It is the sight of a lifetime to behold the night march of troops in strength. Nothing is heard but the heavy tramp of the infantry—nothing seen but the apparently interminable column with its sheen of steel. In the pauses of the march the vete rans of the dragoon and artillery service catch moments of sleep upon their horses and guns, but the sharp command to advance instantly rouses them. The ninth Now York regiment has got arms to day at the arsenal, as did the Uhio regiment yesterday. [From the N. Y. Evening Post.] Wxsrinqtox, May 80 —Captain Bngle of the navy has just returned from a survey of the position of the rebels at Sewall’s Point. He reports that the Point la held by four thou sand rebel troops, and that a powerful battery is erected on the-shore. The place is skilfully defended by works, and the task of capturing it would be great. Captain Kngle, however, does not regard its capture as at all necessary for the purposes of the government, for the present at least, especially as vessels of war can pass the Point without incurring the peril of injury from the battery. Captain Engle reports that the position can be turned by a rear movement, and that by cutting off their communications with the main land, the rebels can be starved out. Secretary Cameron has nearly recovered from bis illness and is attending to his duties to-day. H A Cure for Hydrophobia* One of our exchanges publishes the follow ing relative to an alleged remedy for hydro phobia: “A Saxon forester, named Gastell, now of the venerable age of eighty-two, unwilling to take to the grave with him a secret ol so much importance, has made publio in the Letpsic Journal the means which he has used for fifty years, and wherewith he affirms he hasresoued many human beings and cattle from the fear ful death of hydrophobia.
