BOSTON, May 2.—The steamer Cam- bridge left hen> to-day with several vol- unteer companies, suppoted to be destin- ed for Fort Monroe. VOL. 1. OGDENSBURGH, FRIDAY, MAY 10, 1861. NO. 10. RIVOLTJJCG ITUJf POBT. A French mechanic by the name of Balbi has lately invented a uew fort row which works upon a plun that must as- tooish any hostile narty that shall attempt to take it by assault. The new battery *IB in the shape of u round tower surrounded by a gallery and regularly pierced for cannon, the motive power by which its movements are regulated lx>ing steam. It is to be used in cuirass of iron plates, and so managed that on the first attempt lit an escalade on the part of an enemy, the tower logins to revolve, which render** it inaccessible, while, for the same reason, the picking off any eneirty of its defend- ers l»v the truest rifle l>ccoincs a matter oi' infinite difficulty. It can W propelled, like any conveyance moved by steam ap- paratus from place to place with similar speed. Its base is thickly set with pike*, which, once in rotation, would an- nilate all who might attempt to approach it. THK EFFECT OF 8noT ON VERPEI,S.—A shot does not make a hole of its own size right through wood, but indents it, the fibres springing back after the shock,— Generally, the course of shot can only l»e traced by wire t Hometiincx a hole as large as a mans finger. The damage most oft- en happens in the inside of a vessel, in splintering and breaking the wood, after the main force of the shot was spent.— Forts Hamilton and Richmond, which are about a mile apart, with a vessel lying be- tween them, could not with their guns, send a shut through three feet of its tim- IHT. There is rarely an instance where a ship was sunk by a solid shot. Hot shot and shells do tUe mischief. The latter will sometimes make apertures of several feet in extent, through the sides of vessel*. PHTVEH HOMX. Dan Rice, the indomitable \ Dan \ ar- rived in Brooklyn, Wednesday, having left his floating circus in Indiana waters. His Kteamer was armed with fifty muskets and two cannon. He declares it was hard skinning in Southern waters, and. he docs not propose returning for a whily/ At one place he was arrested, escaping only with great difficulty. Off the Cuin- tierfand river he saw a steamer stealing away from him. For a yt*nl joke he \ let go\ a shot across her bows, followed by another. This brought the clerk of the strangr-looking steamer trembling upon deck with a Secession flag in his hand.— Another shot from Dan sent the young snucc-box below, but another man ran up waving the Rtars and Stripes. Then said Daniel \ depart in peace !'' A highly respectable gentleman, junt arrived at Washington from Montgomery, confirms previous reports of the surprise and dismay with which the Montgomery Government learned the unanimity of Northern sentiment against them. He states, nevertheless, that they arc desper- ate, and will make herculean efforts to put into the field a hundred thousand men who are eager for fight, but he adds that these cannot be maintained for any length of time, as the means of feeding them are not in the control of the Con- federate States. WK arc at last in possession of official details concerning the situation of affairs at Harper's Ferry, after the destruction of the armory by Lieut. Jones. It seems the work was by no means an entire success. The fire did not touch one large depot which contained 8,000 stand of first-clans aruiSj and the entire machinery of the armory \H in as good order to-day as it ever wm The Department attach no blame to Lieut. Jones, thinking that he did the best he could under the circum- stances. SOUHMOTO AFPABATUB. Capt. Mnury, in his recent work on the Physical Geography of the 8ca, says that we have been before the English in or- ganizing plans for exploring the bottom of the ocean. He goes on to say that the honor of the first attempt to recover spe- cimens of the tx>ttom, from great deptliB, belongs to Peter the Great, of Russia.— That remarkable man constructed an ap- paratus especially for the Caspian sea.— it was somewhat in the shape of a pair of ice-hooks. It was so contrived that when it touched the bottom the plummet should become detached, and the hook would bring up the specimen. The late Sir Francis Beaufort, in 1853, was planning a voyage, in which deep sea-sounding ap- paratus, similar to that used, lately by Sir Leopold M'Clintock, was to havebeen used but the Russian war defeated his purpose. ST. LOUIS, May 2.-~San Antonio dates are to the 25th of April. Batteries were being erected at Galveston. Forte Bliss and Quitman are soon to be garrisoned with troops. Vigorous Measures of the Administration. MORE VESSELS OF WAR. Southern Ports to be Blockaded within Twenty Days. nOHFOLK NAVY YARD TO BE HBTAKKN. UEIY. BUTLKK TUANSFRRRKD. IU'ITIMOKK, May 2.—A steamer of the Norfolk line which left here with UHUIH and passengers on Tuesday, expecting to l>e permitted to enter Norfolk harbor, was not allowed to do so, artd she was obliged to land her mails and passengers at Old Point Comfort. The blockade is evidently being vigor- ously enforced against Virginia. Hhe brings reports that Norfolk Bay is dotted over with government transports going and coming. A Targe meeting was held at Com Ex- change thin morning. It way attended by merchants and others, resolutions in favor of the immediate reconstruction of the bridges destroyed, were adopted and a petition to this effect to the Legislature, was largely signet I. NKW-YOHK, May 2.—The Tribune's Washington special dispatch say* that the policy of the administration hence- forward is war, and the Cabinet is now a unit on this polity. Senator Wilson ami Judge Hour had two interviews with the President to-day, and with the members of the Cabinet, urging an imperative necessity of vigor- ous action. The navy yard at Norfolk is to l>e im- mediately retaken and rebuilt. Commissioners from western Virginia assured the President if they are turn- ished with arms their portion of the State would Iw carried. Captain Oakes, of Texas, has reported at head quarters to-day. He states that troops through the South are in a high state of efficiency, and arc being concen- trated at Norfolk and Lynchburgh. Evidences of Lieut. Maury's treachery Iwcomcs daily apparent, by the removal of light house, buoys, &v. Gen. Butler has Iwen detached from Annapolis and has t>ecn appointed to the command of an important Southern movement. A man named Brooks was arrested at Annapolis on Tuesday with dispatches from New-York for the President, Gen. Scott and the War Department, which were found opened on his person. He will be tried by court martial. Election In HHmonrl. ST. LOUIS, May 1.—An election in Mar- ion County to fill a vacancy in the Legis- lature, resulted in the triumph of a Union candidate by 140 maj. G. M.

BAI.TIMOUK, May 1.—Lcinmon, who cut down the American flag, was taken be- fore the II. S. Marshal, and held in $500 security for examination to-morrow. His friends claim that he did not commit the act, while others are posititive that he cut the halliards with u pocket knife.— The city is very quiet. Union meetings are. to l>e hold to-night in various sections of the city. Speeches, singing and other demonstrations are the • order of the evening. The Union men hol^l ward meetings to- morrow evening to elect delegates to the Union City Convention, to prepare for Congressional elections. WASHINGTON, May 2. -It is known that 5,000 mechanics are* to be employed re- puiring damages to the Northern and Central Railroad, with a sufficient number of troops to protect them while tho work is progressing. Thus the way will be opened for the transit of troops and mu- nitions of war, and for passenger travel. NBW-YOIIK, May, 4.—The Steamer Maryland from Annapolis with troops and quantitioa.of stores arrived at Fort Mc- Henry yesterday. The intelligent from Richmond is that considerable alarm exists there on account of the stupendous military preparations going on at the north. NKW-YORK, May 2.—Herald dispatch : Gen. Boutwell has been authorized to raise two more regiments similar to Maj. Gordon's in Massachusetts.

It is reported that the English and Fretfch ministers have protested against issuingVtters-of-marque by the Montgom- ery authorities. Twenty-five additional vessels have Ijcen purchased by the Government, and every Southern port will IK* strictly block- aded within twenty days. Com. Stringham commands the block- ading squadron, and Pciidcrgast the home squadron. A regiment of artillery from Mackinaw arrived this morning. The frigate Constitution, under orders for Boston, will probably sail to-day. The Star of the North, with the; 28th regiment aboard, is lying out in the stream. A schooner which arrived from Wil- mington this morning reports that she was released, together with twenty oth- ers, on the 2(Hh. NEW-YORK, May 2.—The Times Wash- ington dispatches state that a person in the employ of the Government, was im- prisoned by the police in Baltimore on Sunday. iliK watch and other personal effects, and his silver mounted revolvers appropriated by the city marshal! Kane, and was- »ulmequently released, but again arrested by mareudern, a roj«j put around his neck and taken to the Relay House, where his captors indulged in carousing, during which their prisoner escaped and reached Annapolis junction safely. . At Baltimore ho was arested as a spy, ami his su!>scquent arrest was l>ceause lie looked like the northern abolitionists. A scout reports that there a numljer of gnus not mounted on the back of the hills of Alexandria, evidently inteuded for Ar- lington heights. NKW-YOHK, May 4.—The Government purchased yesterday 2 fast tugs to l>e made into gunboat* for the Chesapeake. Alexandria Custom House and Post OlHce were taken possession of by the federal troopn.

NKW-YORK, May 4.—A letter has been received in this city which reveals a plot to destroy New-York, Philadelphia and Boston, by cutting off supplies of water and setting fire to various parts. Letters state that men had l>een retained there, at both Boston and Philadelphia, for weeks, and 125 were sent to New-York to carry out their hellish designs; also that although at first Jeff Davis disap- proved of such proceedings, since he l>e- came President he has favored it. The letter is dated Louisville. Several well known secessionists in this city are close- ly watched, and considerable credence is placed on the statement. Precautionary measures have 1>een adopted by the po- lice. Major Anderson passed through Perry- ville yestesday, and proceeded to Wash- ington last night. All is quiet at Bui ti more. Steamship Baltic will sail for New-York with the families and professors of the naval academy at Annapolis. A fleet of steamers sailed for Washing- ton.

CHICAGO, April 2d.—The locomotive of a train for Toledo on M. S. R. It. exploded her boiler 9 miles from here this evening killing a fireman and section master una injuring the engineer. NEW-YORK, Mav 4.—Intelligence was received from Washington last night to the effect that the war will be vigorously opened in a few days, by demonstrations at Alexandria and Norfolk. Three or four commands will cross the Susquchanua, and occupy Havre de Grace. Troops will then be forwarded 10 miles till Sundav. Monday a strong force of builders will be sent forward to Bush River with their tools, and the bridge there will be rebuilt. The bridges over the big and little Gunpowder Rivers will be rebuilt as soon as sufficient military force is sent forward to protect them. Three bridges will be completed by Thursday next, and the road to Baltimore will then be opened. Troops will be sent forward from Philadelphia to reinforce those at Perrysville. It was stated on reliable authority in Washington yesterday that there were onlv 1500 Virginians at Harper's Ferry, and that they are armed and well-provis- ioned. ANNAPOLIS, April 2d.—Col. Ellsworth's Zouaves have left for Washington by Kail Road. The 5th N. Y. regiment has also landed and will relieve the 09th from du- ty this side of Annapolis junction. IJProvidenee marine artillery are detailed for special service on the Potomac. The force on the opposite side of Sa bine Run, was greatly increased last night. The 71st N. Y. Regiment just arrived by Steamer Kedar. I learn that she touched at Fort Monroe, the garrison numbered 1000 and the Massachusetts Regiment and 800 Regulars, 5000 Virginians arc on the oppsitc side. The Virginians are erecting a battery at the entrance of Hampton roads. The ut- most vigilence was employed but the commander felt secure. The Kedar land- ed 20 bullocks for the garrison who had for some time been out of fresh provisions. She will probably return to Fort Monroe with stores. From private Secetary of Gov. Hicks, we learn that Maryland will hardly call a Convention. The Secessionists dare not use the power suddenly acquired, and they say all Is lost and they state they have been sold by tfce Government. A requi- sltion will in time be made for Federal volunteers and an order for the same was drawn up. The outbreak occured in Bal- timore, '* CONCENTRATION OF TROOPS RUMORS FROM THE SOUTH. Jeftferaon Davis to Command in. Penton.. VIRGINIA TO BE THE BATTLE GROUND. WASHINGTON, May 8.—Adjutant-Gen. Hoke, in an army order calling out the regiment, says the seat of war is its desti- nation, and Virginia, in all probability, will be the first battle-grouncL The Petersburgh Exprees of to-day aays it is positive -that a Kentucky regiment of 400 men are en route for Lynchburgh. The Governor ban determined to sta- tion a large number of troops at Peters- burgh. A private letter states that a concentra- tion of troops at Dumfrcys Virginia, about 45 miles from Washington has been de- termined on. The Charleston Courier of Tuesday says we learn from the most reliable source, that President Davis will take command in person HH General in chief of the force* gathering in Virginia. WASHINGTON, May 3.—From private sources, believed to be entirely reliable it is ascertained that Virginia herself does not meditate an advance on Washington, that subject being for the consideration of the Confederate States. Their throwing troop* into Virginia is said to be in antic- ipation of a declaration of war by the Southern Congress, as well as the appre- hension that the gathering of a large mil- itary force here is designed ultimately to invade the South. Chas. Tibbets, a member of the Rhode Inland regiment, married Sarah Beastly, one of the daughters of the regiment, last night. Fire la Boston. Botmm. May 3.—The large brick build- ing. No. 489 Commercial street, uaed for storing cotton and paper stock, was des troyexF by lire last night. The lx>dy of corporal Needham, who died of hi« wounds in Baltimore, was to- day delivered up to the Mayor of Law- rence for interment. By permission of the Secretary of the Treasury, the steamer Bandefora, of the Boston and Baltimore line, will sail to- morrow with a full cargo for Baltimore. Siie is forbidden to call at Norfolk. FREDERICK MD.. May 2.—The follow- ing is an abstract report of the Committee on Federal relations, to the Assembly on subject of a communication. The Mayor of Baltimore for an early restoration of Rail road communication between Baltimore and other points. The Committee consider the interruption of travel an aggravated evil. It would hardly IK; consistent with pru- denoe to re-open their channels of inter- course with the Northern State*. It can- not be efficiently re-established without warrantee from some quarter. The report adverts on the course of the Federal Government in stationing troops at Annapolis and seizing the road to Wash- ington, and considers such a course as their bem^ treated as a conquered province, and it is therefore the duty of the Legisla- ture to ascertain the precise position which Gen. Scott is determined to occupy tow- ard this State. The Committee closed with the following resolutions:— That Gen. Scott, R. McLean, and R. J. Rosa, be appointed to confer with Presi dent Lincoln, with regard to present and any past military use or occupation of State by the General Government, and also to ascertain and report whether any arrangements are practicable for the maintainence of peace and honor of the State. Adopted by both Senate and the House. 1st, Vessels in blockaded ports, when the blockade took effect, will be allowed a reasonable time to depart. 2nd., Vessels bringing emigrants, though they had no notice of the blockade at the time of departure, will not be allowed to enter the blockaded f|f rts, that class of persons come to the United States chiefly to nettle in the upper States of the Missis- sippi, and it will be better for them to enter at an open port and make their way thence to their destination, than to en- counter the dangers and causalties inci- dent to the insurrectionary condition of the pulf States. Dispatches from Raleigh, say the Leg- islature met yesterday. The Assembly speedily organized the calling of the Con- vention passed unaminously to assemble on the 20th iust. The southern confederate flag is flying over the Capitol. North Carolina is virtually out of the Union. The Governor has organized a camp of instruction at Raleigh. He recomends the raising and organi- zing a Regiment to serve during the war. He says the Northern Government is now concentrating a large force in the district of Columbia, ostensibly to protect the seat of Government, but such a force can- not be allowed to remain within the lim- its of Maryland, and on the borders of Virginia, without seriously endangering the liberty of the people of those States. In time they will conquer and overrun and North Carolina will become the next prey to their policy, then as will incite sympathy of brotherhood engendered by which our intercourse must be to exert all energies in the defence of Maryland and Virginia. Every battle fought there will be a battle fought in behalf of North Carolina, and there our troops should be speedily sent.
