The New York IWe eyntaius tetters dated a board tie L'a i-d Sta ea ab:p Powhatan, off Penaacola, May IS. Wa .make the eu'-J naed extracts: The commanding officers of Oar meD'of-wsr Were have again been changed. At present they areas follows: Powhatan, Lieut. L. Purler, of Peonaylvania; Sabiij, Capt. Adama; Brooklyn-, Commander Poor; 3t. Louia, Commauder QibsoDj Supply, Lieal. Multsny. The other veieds have their old captains. There ts no use in concealing the fact that the fight here will be one of the most desperate of the war. Out preparations are progressing mpidly, and fully justify as in the opimou that Fort Pickens is almost impregnable. But the gigantic tridee making by Bragg's command may well prevent us from anticipating a quiet -capture ol the navy -yard and Baraneaa, the poasession "of which is necessary to end of hostilities in these parts. Now it is on the best authority that I inform you that the secessionists ashore muster Id, 00 available fighting men, notwihsUnding previous estimate. They are scattered for miles round, and have some of the be$t officers iu America to regulate their movements. There are at least six batteries that may open - t It j a r . nre on ricaena now concesiea, ana, 01 course, the exact places in which they ere situated no one of as can find out. The skill of three United States. milUary and naval officers has been concentrated to make these most powerful, and Camming's Point ravages 00 Samter indicate what a hidden battery may do. Let if be under? stood, then, that on land the tecessioniat number, ' at least, five timet more than the Federal troop. Take all oar available men from tba ships, and yob cannot mako op one-third ofour enemies strength. There bare been serious impediments; too placed ia the water within eight days, and it " is now very doubtful whether, forts left out, ships could go np to the yard. Then Montgomery and Warrington are connected by the iroa railway horse, and reinforcements may be poured in. I mention these matters only to plainly establish one fact, namely t We cannot take a permanent1 nd offensive stand in Florida with 1,500 men. . The evening maater of the Soatbera troops baa jast gone on. It was certainly an imposing eight. : There cannot be leas than 1.509 moonf d men attached to Bragg's commandi ami pa-trots of them alosg the road, French sentry fash ion, all day and night. They evidently begin oncer more to think of acting on the offensive. Tea days ago their plaek was oozing oat fait, bat fresh arrivals from) Mississippi and Georgia have fired them a? again. I confess that, they exhibit so signs of starvation, although an unusual, temperance among then proves , that epeeje ie scaree.- Several pieces of ordnance bate been received iron Alabama since the 2d; on of them . ts a tremendaons Dahlarren. aaid tk liavft ' MAma from the Norfolk navy-yard.

Were it at air practicable, President Lincoln might. 4ccordipg to the literal theory of the Con stitution, anppreaa with a kigh hand alt Rebellions, and hang ill traitors; bat this coarse was out of the question. Qe might, on the other hand, eve without any forma! acknowledgement of secession, have said, M There are certain forts in the South poesessbM by the General Government for the protection of the States from some foreiph invasion they were never built for the coercion of the people and as at present there is some danger of a riotous attack oh them, I will withdraw alt troops from them, tiy this means he would take from the cacse of secession all the charm of daring; he would remove that aspeet of heroism which arises when hot Southrons defy .Northern agzresaton. or saving, , 1 hare 110 idea of sending a single soldier into the South, tuwuu A a,ii, wwtuc lug uiBia ma uv toixucu, the people in the Confederate States would say, Now that all apprehension of force is gone, have we gained by aeceaaion ?n Levies would have been disbandoned, the war fever would .have subsided, the Border States would have remained in the Union. But by talking of coercion Mr. Lincoln kept up a continual fever in the South, eoabled the Montgomery government to exercise a despetlsm, and to concentrate its energies oe military preparation, and forced the Border States into hostility to the Union. Were coercion actually practicable, this coarse might bate been defensible, bat strong words do not take forts, and M. . Lincoln is farther bow from sacce-4 against the S'Mith than be was when he started from Chicago. As regards Fort 8umter itself be did the worst thing he eon Id do. Ho intended to evacuate it ia a few days; bat sooner than con-seat to acknowledge that South Carolina was re hellions, he expressed his iolention to send in provisiens, by force if neceessary. He thus gave toe South the provocation end opportunity of a brrlNaet victory, aad. had to submit to a mortify ing defeat. The conduct of (he Soul! ern - gov-eminent has, on the centrsry been, marked by operation and good sense. They clang no 6c- ttooi, and ware hampered by ne legal ignorance of plain facts. They wanted to take Fort Sumter aad they took it. They wished the Border States to join them, and, by precipitating a cdtliaioa-, tbof aeem to have got them unless, indeed, aome unexpected good aenae at Waahington prevent them at the eleventh hour.

Terrible Times in Ward Tonshipr l4t-odas of Negroes On last Sunday week, a preacher named Speats, of tfce Free Wealeyaa : denomination whilst preaching to a promiscuoas congregation of whitei and blacks in Ward Township, this eountf, was -taken from ' the paf pit, and ejected from the house. We hate been ttnabie to learn the provocation, but andefstand that it was on account of the incendiary doctrice and encour agement to the blacks to arm themselves for effler gencies. Oa Saturday last, quite a crowd of cit izen of Green and Ward townships convened far the parpoie erconsalting si to the policy to be pursued relative to the slate of affairs exiating ia that neighborhood, at which, we nnderstand, it was resolved to inform Mr. Spears that if be again attempted to preach at that place he would be eummarily dealt with. The crowd then re paired to the house of Joshua Ltt,a negro, who had livinr with him a white woman, named. Pom- phrey, of bad character, both of whom were tar red and feathered. On Sunday the crowd repaired to the scene of excitement, and having heard that Thomas Ma-bray and Abraham Gross (colored), had made use 01 expressions which the citisene did not re I ish very well, they were also treated with a gar ment of tar and feathers ( Oa Monday the CfoWd repaired to the Normon settlement, and without Committing much depre dation, gave several negro families, notice to leave within six months. These are the facts as far as We have) beard,' and which We give as We received themV without vouching for their correctness. It is rumored that the negroeSj who are more numerous ia those two townships than in all the balance of the connty, have been arming themselves and tnak-f tag many threats, bat the negroes deny all that is charged against them. We deprecate every appearance df mob law, and hope that order and qoiet tost bo restored bat one thing lbs negroes in the North may as well nnderstand at first as at last, that is to confine themselves to their proper sphere daring these exciting times, or their lives will not be worth a copper. We trast these riotoua proceeed tngs will be stopped, and we appeal to all good citizens to act with moderation and doe regard to tba rights of others dnnng these troublesome times. If the spirit of mob law obtains the ascendancy, there is do telling where it will end.

The charge lhai General lloaaton made a ae-celsin speech at Galveston is all false.. lie spoke there, however, in defiance of threats, and ao eye witness says: V. Abouk an hour before the ilme. appointed for his address he appeared, riding thrbllgh tbe prin cipat streets of the city: When he had slighted from his carriage he stood for a few moments, fearWasly before th crowd, to converse with some friends. I followed him; with Other gentle; men, iuto 40 adjoining office. There Were present about twenty, mostly prominent Secessionists, but friends of the General. All united iu entreating hid not to persist in speaking when it would inevitably be ai tne peril of bis life-The brave man, however, had bat one answer: "I have lived in vain, gentlemen, if I can not new speak what I think. . If it has some to that bsfe, I may as well die bdw as at any time.1 " A prominent Secessionist, wbose name is con spicioos among-the rebels of Texas, General Nichols, daring this conversation, put numerous questions to Houston touching his present posi. tioa, and relative to certain remarks he was- reported to have mad. He asked Houston if he ever had said that Jefferson Davis was a pernd-eons traitor, and was aiming at diciorial powers Turning to him with a look of withering eon tempt, the old General replied: 1 did . say eq and in the preseoce of God" I think o, and I will say what I think, thongh the thunders blast me here.? As weetarted logo op to the place where Houston had appointed to speak, I teard a man in the crowd ask this same General Nichols, " Well, what did you get out of the old man?' To whioh he replied that "all he got from him was, that he was going to say . what he d d pleased." : . General Houiton walked almost unattended to the ball where he was to speak. . his friends avoiding him from fear of injury from the excited crowd. - On artyicg there he was told that it had been cK eed atrainst him by the owoers, who feared its destruction by the mob. Houston replied that he would speak in the open air then, and walking fearlessly through the crowd to an elevated balcony, commenced his address with out the least tracw of agitation or alarm visible npon bis coantenance.. After alluding briefly to the events Which had transpired since he was last at G aires on. he boldly vindicated his own character from the calumnies which bad been hasped apon him by some bF the lying journals in TeXas. He tbeu characterized the secession of Texas as iniqoitom and prejudicial in every way to her best interests. He said that disunion might be in tbe ascendant now, but there was a terrible reaclion to come, which would be heard. - and thit be stood iU a waiting attitnde for what time to tome.

The Southern Cottfeder acy had sent out letters of marque for the purpose of covering the sea with privateers, bat the Northern States had declared an intention of treating privateers as pi fates, tie wiehed to call the attention of the govern ent to the position in which British sailors might be placed; for if there was one thing that had attractions fot them. it was privateering. It Was also desirable that the British (tfercbants should know in what posi tion they stood as neutrals and else that some declaration should be niade with ftfffjJect to Brit: ish subjects becoming privateers. He believed that the latter Was a crimfrral otfence, hot the possibility Of this Ctftftftry being involved la the dispute between the two sections of the American States was so serious that he sincerely coflctfrred in the prayer of the noble lord (Lord J. BasseD) we might keep on t of it, its hoped, therefore. that it wuld be distinctly declared thai if any Brtiisn subject etuerea upon privateering, he must not look to his government for- redress or protection, but thai his blood still be on his own head. lie hoped . that the proclamation would give a most diatioet and emphatic warning to British sailors, and especially those in her Uajeaty's ser- Earl Granville said that he quite agreed In the appreciation which the noble Earl showed of the serious cbtueqaenoes of this ooantry becoming ifffelved in- this nnfiortnnate dirpnte '-.

The Government Commissioner was backed by 1,400 V Gancoo. and Aberastain by the San J dan forces, amoantiog to about 1,200, among which were a large eamber of the most inteltigentjpopulation of the province. The com bat lasted one half hoar, the San Juan cavalry immediately passing over to the invaders. Then commenced one of the most horrible butcheries which has ever disgraced the bloody annals of the Argebtine Republic. Three , boors and a half of bloody slaughter followed during which time from four to ' six haudred mep were Unced. It is said that Col. Saa and his brother, killed until their lancas dropped from their hands from pore exbanation. But nine perous were killed on the part of the iuvaders, a fact which goes far to prove the previous account correct. Governor Aderastaiu was taken prisoner, and after marching five leagues on foot across a desert, until he could march no loger, Was set npon a mound of earth and shot, the most horrible barbarities being offered to bis body. His hetd general Was shot, aud beheaded.
