Preparations at Washington. The Washington correspondent of th? Baltimore Exchange famishes that papei daily with honest views of things at the headquarters of corruption. We make some extracts from his letter of the 20tb: instant: In all that one sees and hears among military operations here are the signs ol vigorous, if not desperate, preparations foi and impending clash of arms of the most formidable character. The very quite that prevails in the streets?the strict discipline that reigns iust now?the busy but mysterious going to and fro of officers from Department to Department, and circulating around the headquartes of General McClellan, the Quartermaster-General and the Provost Marshal, with bustle in their movements and earnestness in their manner?all indicate action, anxiety, haste. The in fl f J !.! i.? ow 01 munitions uuu provisions amouuis to an inundation?not an hour in the day that does not show from forty to fifty wagons around the depot, rushing hither and thither, and snatching np their loads of harness, cartridges and fodder, to rush them past the City Hall campward, and return in a jifly for new burdens. The arrivals of men, however, are not in proportion to the importation of army freight. Nevertheless, I am assured that the President confidently expects reinforcements to the amount of 75,000 from the Northern States shortly. Eighteen vessels, including a number of gun-boats, are reported to have been dispatched to Acquia Creek, to watch the batteries and cut of all correspondence between the two shores. The attention of the War Department Hseems to be especially directed to this point, and for good chase, for it has just been discovered that a battery of heavy siege guns has been erected on the Maryland shore, opposite the strip of land lying between the Acquia and Potomac creeks.? There is also a formidable rifle battery newly detected near the Potomac creek. This, is of course, a fresh sensation, and will engage, without delay, the attention of the Potomac flotilla, because such a disposition of the batteries gives the Confederates the oommand of the river. France and Georgia?Important Intelligence.?We believe that it may now be safely announced that France will take advantage of the Georgia mission, as toe means 01 opening uipjoujuuu u^uuations with the Confederate Government.? "We learn from Paris that a special commission will be sent out to the Southern States by the Emperor. We think this important embassy may be looked for in November?possibly earlier. It is usual on such occasions to convey the diplomatic agents in a Government steamer. The French steamer may possibly sail direct fur Savaunah, and from there proceed to New Or leans, calling at Havana en route. This response to the Georgia mission explains the semi-official announcement in the Paris Patrie, recognizing the Constitutional right of secession claimed by the South The Paris correspondent of the New York Herald writes as follows : Parts, July 26, 1861.?This evening, the Patrie has a most unfair, untrue and prejudicial leader upon the affairs of the United States. The Patrie asserts that the j South has a perfect right to secede, quotes j the Constitution to prove this, as the devil; might quote Scripture, and winds up saying that it is to the interest of France and ! Europe to recognize the revolted States.? It is urged upon the public that a direct' commerce with the South were most advantageous, and hopes are expressed that there will no longer be any occasion to pay "those j New York merchants" the large commissions they have heretofore pocketed. All j this is very much to be regretted, as it can but excite the hopes of the rebels and encourage them to a protracted resistance. The Lincoln ambassador is greatly exci ted on the subject.

AU that important labor, we believe Mr. King has been ably assisted by Monsieur Corr Vander Maeren, of Brussels, the President of the International Free Trade Association, and a great friend of the South.?Atlanta (?a.) Intelligencer, ?4?/yws? 21. - ? What is to be Done with the Prisoners ??Under the head of what is to be done with the pirates, the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer has the following : The question is now seriously discussed in the Cabinet, without any definite answer being arrived at. * * * * I stated at the same time that the Administration had decided not to hang any of the sailors taken on board of the Southern privateers. The decision was made not from any feeliug of clemency towards the captured sailors, but from motives of policy. The result of the inauguration of such a policy would be the indiscriminate murder of hundreds of prisoners in the hands of the rebels, including many valuable citizens and the enactment of scenes of horror unequaled by those of the French .Revolution The Administration, therefore, decided as I have said, not to hang any of the pirates. But within a day or two the question has been again raised in the Cabinet. At least one member of that body is in favor, as he expresses it, of discarding all squeamish nonsense, and of hanging every rebel found in arms against the Government, whether taken on the sea or land ! Thisis undoubtedly the course that ought to be taken, if the Government regards this matter as simply an insurrection. This is the view taIf T,in/?nlri iinrl acu U1 UJ X .WiWVU* xx.^vv/." , .? - ~~, too, although he deplores the necessity of such dreadful measures, is in favor of such a course as will show to the world that wc are in earnest in this matter, and that traitors found in arms against the Government must expect and receive a traitor's doom. Mr. Bates and Mr. Blair both go for extreme measures, regardless of consequences; and Mr. Smith also entertains the same views. Substitute tor Flannel Shirts.? The stock of flannel having been pretty well exhausted in the Southern markets, we will be doing the public, and especially our brave soldiers, a service in pointing to a cheap and complete substitute, if not a better article, for the purposes to which flannel is usually applied. A physician of high reputation informs us that under shirts made of common coarse Georgia osnaburgs afford even greater protection against exposure than flannel, and are far preferable in rheumatio and other similar affoctious. Apart from this theory, we know several geutlemen who have been wearing them for years, even in summer, in preference to flannel, and they express a perfect satiss faction with the result.?Savannah Repub: lican. j ?? . What Does it Mean ??Reliable intelligence was received in Norfolk yesterday morning from Hampton Roads. It states P that a very formidable fleet of vessels are r afloat there, which, connected with the fact . that Gen. Wool has just assumed control at i Fortress Monroe, is thought to be ominous ; of a forward and aggressive movement.? The following Federal vessels were recognized : The Minnesota, the Wabash, Cumberland, Quaker City, Harriet Lane, Anacostia and Penguin. Also the following transports: The Philadelphia, Express, Adelaide and Georgian, and fifteen sail vessels. The Spanish steam frigate Petronella was also discovered in this very bad company. Such an unusually large maratime force in the Roads very naturally gave rise to much speculation about Norfolk, and excited some apprehension of an attempted at' tack. Should an effort be made to enter Elizabeth river and our gallant artillerists at Craney Island pour one broadside into this numerous flotilla, the obstruction in Norfolk harbor caused by sunken vessels, will be quite a serious matter, while the fish in that section will feed on Yankee bodies e 1?

Kentucky.?The Louisville Journal is informed that it is the purpose of Governor MaGoffin to issue a proclamation at an early day, calling upon the federal troops under the command of Colonels Frey and Bramlette, at different points in the interior, to disband and retire to their homes. From a late number of the Lexington (Ky.) Statesman we copy the following : "Why is a standing army placed in our midst ? Why is our neutrality thus violated ? What are these men going to do?? What is to be the field of operation in which this army is to be employed 1 These were the questions which were eagerly asked on yesterday. But no answer came. The U nion leaders smiled significantly when interrogated, but responded nothing. "We do not know nor care what the purpose of their movement, but we do know that never was there a more wanton, wicked, causeless war excited than is about to be in inaugurated in this State. The men who have instigated this movement will have blood enough on their souls to defy the intercession of all the angels of Heaveo. Washington, August 20.?As the only effective mears of checking the designs of the enemy on Washington is to have a military force adequate for all possible contingencies, this will soon be supplied. The earnest measures of the Administration to this end have already produced here the most happy effect, and affords reassurance of the safety of the Capital depending ou the patriotic responses of the North. Messrs. Spofford & Tileston who have two steamers running between New York and Key West and Havana, have proposed to subsist one officer and fifteen men on board each vessel, to be furnished with the proper armament and clothed with authority to capture privateers. The Secretary of the Navv has acceeded to the DroDOsition. ~ J 4 4 The inlets of North Carolina, it is suspected, are not the only ones on the Southern coast to be obstructed by the sinking of old hulks filled with stoue. Those who imagine that the Navy Department is uot vigorously at work will have reason to change their opinion, as vast results will soon be apparent. Richmond, August 20.?The Govemjment, I hear, has this afternoon received despatches by telegraph, stating that the English Government had sent orders to Admiral Milne, commanding the powerful British squadron in the Gulf, to see that British merchant vessels be adequately protected in their ingress to and egress from the ports of the South, over which Lincoln claims that his paper blockade extends. I know that high officials here believe such to be the fact, and the members of theCabiuet seemed highly gratified. The French Consul here has received a dispatch announcing the arrival of a French war frigate at Norfolk. Congress has to-day had under consideration the bill providing for the sequestration of the property of alien enemies. The bill was framed as a retaliatory measure to offset the "Confiscation Act" of the Rump r\ t. _:n 1 ? \^UN^re?!5. i.t Will UIIUUUUICUIJ paoo. Colonel John B.

Prospect of a Revolution in Maryland.?A special dispatch from Washington to the New York Herald says : The efforts of the rebels to gather Maryland into the secession fold have not been abandoned. It appears that there are about fifteen hundred or two thousand rebels there under arms. General Tilghman, of Talbot county, Maryland, who was deposed from his militia rank last spring by Gov. Hicks, and subsequently restored by the State Legislature, is organizing the disuniouists iu the lower Cou:.ties of Maryland. He is about to proceed to Accoruac, take command of the Virginia forces there, aod march them up into the middle of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, as the nucleus for the formation of a rebel army there, which shall, if it cau do uothing else, control the elcctious iu the fall so as to secure a disunion majority iu the Legislature, and enable the secessionists to pass a secession ordinance, or perhaps more immediately enforce an ordinance of secession that may be passed by the present Legislature at an adjourned session. The Leesburg Battle. The Charleston Mercury of the 21st inst., has received from its Richmond Correspondent, of August 20th, the following: "There is not a particle of truth in the report about the Leesburg fight The War Department, received no official news of it, though the impression prevailed here that such news had been received." ? JWaT- According to the New York Herald, j John C. Breckinridge, Ex-Guv. .Morehead, , James B. Clay and J. Young Brown are ; advertised to address a grand assemblage of ; the people near llarrodsburg, Kentucky, I in favor of the Southern cause. These are i strong champions, and they come forward not an hour too soon, if they would save I the State. Admission of Missouri into the Soutern Confederacy.?We have information that a bill has been reported from the Military Committtee, in secret session of Congress, for the admission of Missouri into the Confederacy. It is known that the 1 people of Missouri are now contemplating measures to make that State a member of the Confederacy; and the action of Congress in admitting her now is intended to be responsive to this disposition of the people of Missouri and to encourage it to a prompt determination of its purpose. The bill, as reported from the committee, provides for the full admission of Missouri upon an equal footing with the other Confederate States, upon the condition that the Constitution for the ProvisJ ional Government of the Confederate States shall be adopted by her, upon official notice of which fact by her Governor, the i President shall, by ploclamation, announce the fact, and her admission shall be con- ' sidered as complete. i The bill is subject to some amendments i of detail; but the sense of Congress is reported to be unanimous for the admission of Missouri before the adjournment. The admission will probably be authorized today by a unanimous vote, and Virginia and ( the people of the entire Confederacy will hail the intelligence of the addition thus j secured of another star to our national galaxy.?Richmond Examiner. < Civil War at toe North.?The in- j telligence by late Northern papers speaks of the probability of a bloody collision in New York. The Lincoln Government, it is known, had the Police Commissioners , of Baltimore arrested, imprisoned them , some time at Fort MoHenry, and then re- j movej^them to Fort LaFayette, near Brook- , lyn. The whole proceeding was without ( law, and against all law. Since their arri- , val at Fort LaFayette, some citizens of New , York applied to a judge and obtained a , writ, addressed to the commander of the , fort, requiring him to produce the bodies of , the prisoners, and justify their detention. To this order of the Court, the commander, acting under instructions from Washington, ' refused compliance. A disposition has suddenly exhibited itself among the people of a New York and Brooklyn to support the Court against the military authority. The c Court has the right, under law, to call upon h the malitia to enforce the execution of its c process, and we infer from the papers that h it is the purpose of the Court and its backera to bring the matter to a test. We see that the question is being discussed as to / the force necessary to take the fort, ifj: the wish pervades the great masses of j Brooklyn and New York, of course the 1 power exists to crush a State Prison? though the capture may cost blood and life-. ? JSfiy A correspondent of the New Orleans Delta pays the following tribute to the 5th South Carolina Regiment: [ The gallant 5th South Carolina Regiment * behaved with a bravery and determination r which entitles them to one of the highest U pages in the history of the battle of Manas- ? sas. Though exposed to as hot a fire as v any seen that day in other portions of the n field, they stood unwaverin under the con- i! stant rain of shell and shot, which the ene- " my poured incessantly upon them; and had s the occasion required, would, I am confi- d dent, have charged without hesitation upon j the immensely superior forces of the enemy, which occupied such an advantageous po- ; sition on the hill. The name of the gallant Col. Jenkins is one which has become dear 1 to every one under his command, and respected by those who have had occasiou to . judge of his high military acquitemeDts, as well'Vs his uuflinching courage upon the battle-field. Under such officers as him, meu will march, probably to victory, but certainly to honor. I Liberal.?The Edgefield Advertiser t says: The acceptable information has just reached us that Win. B. Doru, our goldminer, proffers to uniform a company to be [ formed in the district, and to subsist the c r families of such among them as may be i needy, while they are in service. The propo c sition was set on foot at a small barbaoue * in the Squire's neighborhood, last Saturday. when sixteen or eighteen men imme- diatelv stepped forward. It is hoped the . company will rapidly progress. Another company is spoken of in the neighborhood 1 of Squire Ben. Perry, his son being at the I head of it. {, ? .???. t A Band of Indian Warriors.?The , Helena (Ark.) Shield, of the 10th inst., J1 says: i From the Hon. C. W. Adams, of this County, who arrived at home a few days since from the Northern part of this State, we learn that on last Monday week thirteen hundred Tndian warriors?Southern allies ?crossed the Arkansas river, near Fort Smith, en route for McCulloch's camp.? a These Indians were armed with rifie, butch- r er-knife and tomahawk, and had their faces -j painted, and seemed eager for the fray. J ? H The following is from the London letter, ? dated 26th of July, of the N. Y. -Veies; v "Just as I am closing I am told that J theSoutherr. Commissioners sent from here, J a month ago, a complete battery of Arm- i strong, and one of the Whitworth cannon, t probably for New Orleans, and that they j have actually secured the construction of 1 a stccl-clad steam frigate, of the largest c class, in a port of Northern Europe. They J pay too, it is said, in cash. This certainly tJ looks like earnest work." Missouri. 1 C From a private source we learn that the r redemption of Missouri will soon be com- i plote. There are dow about 50,000 Confederate troops on her soil pledged for her redemption, and the battle at Springfield ; has inspired them with new zeal. It is thought that Seigle was mortally \ wounded or killed at the battle at Spring- ' field. lie has not been heard of since that day.? Columbia S. C. Guardian, 27 th ( instant. ( >???> j Suoar Prospects.?The New Orleans , Delta says the prospects are unusually fa- J vorable for a heavy crop of sugar this sea- son. From every portion of the sugargrowing region the same welcome reports J are daily received ; and should do tempest or premature and nipping frost intervene, | it is safe to predict a larger harvest than , has ever heretofore been gathered in Louis[ana. fiS^The British fleet in the Gulf of ij Mexico is composed of twenty-three ves- 1 sels, carrying 442 guus and numbering 5,653 men. Savannah, Aug. 22.?It was rumored here yesterday afternoon that a passenger by the Charleston train reported two threemasted vessels off Bay Point engaging each other yesterday (Tuesday) morning, and had fired upwards of seventy shots. When last seen they were seemingly closing on each other. The brig Santa Clara, formerly of Eastport, Maine, with a cargo of Sugar and Molasses, captured by the Jeff. Davis, is now safely moored at the dock here, in rear of the Exchange. Arrival.?The steamer General Clinch, Captain Murden, arrived here yesterday from Beaufort, S. C. She brought on the officers and crew of the prize ship A. B. Thompson, which vessel since her capture has been lying at Beaufort. She was condemned in the Confederate Court as a lawful prize of war, some three weeks ago.? The prisoners are in charge of Capt. Kirk, of the Ninth Regimeht, who will take them to Richmond.? Charleston Courier, 24th. Loss of the Je?f. Davis. Savannah, August 22.?A letter from Fernandina, Florida, dated August 21, received here, says: "The crew of the privateer Jeff. Davis arrived here this afternoon. They state that on Sunday morning, while trying to get into St. Augustine, the vessel struck on the bar and was lost. All ber guns were saved, with the exception of L.wr> smnll ones." I Confederate Armory at Augusta. ' ?The Augusta Constitutionalist says that i Confederate Armory is to be established i it the Arsenal near that city. The manufacture of ammunition is now going on there it a very rapid rate, and as soon as the ne jessary arrangements can be made, the manufacture of small arms will be com- , menced. This work will require a large J lumber of operatives. The powder mill , ivill also soon be put in operation. i Sffrial Notices. FIGHT AT MANASSAS. Messrs.

Manufactured at Columbia, S- C., BY R. M. STOKES &. CO. rIE subscribers hereby notify the Farmers and Planters of the Southern Confederacy that they are now establishing a factory for the production of a commercial Fertilizer, Which they believe will he found equal to any fertilizer heretofore purchased from the North. All the ingredients of the SOUTHERN COMPOUND FERTILIZER are found in nbuudancc In the South, and only require the application of scientific knowledge to make us perfectly independentof our enemies, even In this particular. Our Intention Is to sell our Planters an honest and reliable Fertilizer, peculiarly adopted lo our own soil, climate, and crops, and, as far as pisslhle, shield them from the gross Impositions so frequently palmed upon them by Northern manure manufacnirers. Our Fertilizer contains all the elements necessary for the food of plants, being composed of PULVERIZED NIGHT SOIL, POTASH, DISSOLVED BONES, SULPHURIC ACID, PLASTER and LIME. The manure thus formed, containing a large per centnge of potash and other alkaline salts, will render it invaluable for cotton, and will be found to Influence the growth of all other crops sufficiently early in the season, though not quite so promptly as Peruvian Guano. It will hold out longer, and mature the seed per tectly, giving decidedly tne nest crops, anu win snow iuhmi in most instances superior to Gunno or many other of the most popular fertilizers. We shall be ready to supply the Fertilizer about the 5th of September. Price, ?45 per ton of 9.000 lbs., cash, bankable paper, or Confederate State Bonds. R. M. STOKES & CO.
