Nsaao Tbocbli in Nrw Orleans The negroes ef Nsw Orleans are being made sensible that the whites are afraid ef them. The negro churches hsvs bean closed; several steamboat crews of blacks, both slave snd free, have bees locked up, and every measure resorted to prevent servile insurrection. A panlltrnan who was compelled to Mas from North Carolina, says the s"eessionists are carrying all before them, without reference te law or order. Tber bare drawn off many people who do not sympathise with their movements, and threatened loudly to nob and hang Ex-Governor Gilmer, who is persistently resisting the tide of passion. ...

A dispaleh from Baltimore, staling ih I .1 T if 1 I ! I tnr union leenng nan reviveu in mm city to-day cannot be relied on, there is but one feeling in Baltimore, via- hostility to the Union. Tho Way the Pennsylvania Dutohinon Fight When the B.rks County and other in terior troops were on their wsy toward Camp Curtm, the officers had a conference oyer the news of the taking .if Fort Sum:er, and the fact that, after thirty six hours cannonading, no life was lost. One honest Dutch officer could not understand how this could be dona ; but another officer, better posted in modern warfare, assured him that it was all owing to the astonishing improvements in modern science, which had made the art of war so peifect that forts might be battered down, and cities be bombarded, and yet not a single individu 1 be killed. The honest Dutch son of Mars listened attentively and in surprise at such remarkable results. Suddenly his face reddened, and, with a blow of his fist upon the table, which sounded like the discharge of a columbiad, he ex claimed : "Den, by tam, dey had petter not pnng down our Dutchmans, lor dey are so tam shtupid mil science, dat dey could not go into a fight mitout killing somebody." Phila. Ledger. Pennsylvania too hot for Bob Tyler. Bob Tyler, son of ex-President Tyler, unable to get a living in his on "deir old Virginia," has for several years past resided at Bristol, Pa., and occupied the post of clerk to one of the Philadelphia Courts, at a salary of $1,600 a year. He had taken great pain recently to make himself particularly obnoxious to the peo ple of Bristol by openly proclaiming Se cession sentiments, and communicating news t i the South unfavorable to the North, Forbearance having ceased to be a virtue, the people rose and drove him from the town. He then took up his resi dence in Philadelphia. There ths people threatened to hang him, and he was forced to leave the city. He then turred ip in New York, where he was reconnoitring incog. until Wednesday af'ernoo i, wbtn he left Jersey City on ti e triinforthe South. When the sons of John Tyler act as Southern traitors in the pay of the North, what have we to expect from the hordes of low Southerners prowling about our hotela 7 Gunshot wounds are not painful immediately, but become so by inflammation. Their treatment is first to avoid a collapse, and this is to be done by encouraging language ; and, if necessary; a little stimulant, administered with care, as it may increase the inflammation. The next thing is to jtop the bleeding, by the application of pressure , the next, to find out if any bone is broken, and If so, to s uady it, and place it in a natural and comfortable position. After this, a cold water dressing may be applied, though many surgeons are in favor of a warm water fomentation; but we think their practice untenable, for cold water removes inflammation by evaporation, and warm water may impart head, instead of removing it. In the case of a slight injury, cold water dressings and rest of the muscles will complete the cure, lor desperate wounds the subsequent treatment requires the skill of a Lirrey or Abernetby.- Startling Humor. A lady who arrived in the city yester day morning from Charleston, which city she left on Thursday, states that the most terrible condition of affairs existed in that city when she left there. About two hundred left 'or the North in the same train with herself, and tbe inhabitants were preparing to leave as rapidly as possible: An msurrect on had broken out among the negroes upon the various plantation in the interior, and they were burning the houses and committing other depredations. She resided about t'iree miles from Charleston, and her husband is absent from home in the secession army. He is the owner of a eotton plantation and some two hundred slaves. Her father is a Cap tain in the United States Army, and is for the Union. Philadelphia Inquirer. Tin Detroit Free Press, the old Demo cratic organ of Michigan, says : While the people of tho North and the West with entire unanimity hold this prior allegiance to the United States, and stand ready to defend it with their lives, they hold it also to be the duty of that government to protect every one of its citizens, with all its power, whenever and where- ever he may be assailed. A proclamation shoul I go forth instantly lhat the Union men of the South, in every State, will be protected at all hazards. Give them not only the moral force of the determined support ol tbe government, but let it be followed by such an army in every State, if necessary, a would make the traitors feel that mob violence and civil war will meet, will) neither toleration nor forbearance.The Philadelphia Bullulin gives the following rule for the deteotion of Senator Mason if any honest person should be arrested by mistake for lhat old scoundrel : Let any one that is suspected ol being Mason be obliged to make a speech. If the audience assembled to bear him re main and listen, the orator cannot be Mason. If (hey gradually depart and leave him su rounded by empty benches, then the officers may be sure they bave 'he right man. His speeches in tbe Senate always bas the effect of clearing the gal leries more effectually than could be done by the Sergeant-at-Arms. Mr. John S. MoEwin, editor and prop rietor of the Georgetown Free Press, Pettis county, Missouri, arrived in this city yesterday, accompanied by his wife. He was forced (o quit on short notice, leaving bis property, press, and househould furniture, and was glad to escape-with bis life. He represents the secession feeling very strong in that part of the Stale. Gov. Cennieon'a Letter to Col. T. L Crittenden Columbus, May 1st, 1861 To Col. T. ti. brittenden : LVar Sir I have receiv ed your communication of yesterday, in which you say you have been instructed by the Hon. B.

Governor of Ind inna, and myself in an effort to bring about a truce between the General Government and the seceded States, until the meeting of Congress in extraordinary session, in the hops the action of that body may point out the way to a peaceful solution of our national troubles. In reply 1 bave lo re mark, that, believing the General Government to the wholly in the right, I can see noreison for the interposition suggested If it be desit id by ( ov. Magoffin, I wil cordially unite with him in an appeal t tbe seceded States at ouce, to return to the allegiance to the Government of the Union, and thus ler oinate the difficulties which their conduct bas brought upon the country. And other peaceful solution is impossible. A truce would only aggravate the impending evils. Please submit this communication to the Hon. Gov. Magof fin.

The IlOrder Stntes, Delaware, "littlo Delaware," which tbe well remembered and factious Mayor Noah talked about putting Into kis breeches pocket, is sound to the cor.

In the revolution, Delawaro was one of the most loyal of Statos, and her people were well known by tha soubriquet of "the Blue Hen's ijtiickenf.." Cesar ltodnoy was then her most csnspiciuous representative in tho Ruvolutionary Congress. In ono of the darkest periods of the Revolution, when tho wir was pressing sorely upon the country south of tbe Potomac, Mr. Harrison, of Virginia, then the most populous snd powerful ol the States, urged Congress with great earnestness, and in undisguised alarm, to send succor to bis State. When he sat down, Mr. Rodney rose, and beggod him not to be alarmed: that Delaware would stand by Virginia ; that all she hid tn do was to get under tbe wing of tbe Iiluo Hen. Most devoutly do wo wish that Virginia would get under the Blue lien's wing once more; for she is in greater peril now loan she was then. The President Determined to Push tho War.

May He bleaa and protect our dear children, and bring them home to us in safety. I hope you will provide them eaoh with a Bible, and give them their mother's love and blessing, and tell them our prayers will ac-company them, and ascend on their behalf, night and day."
