Much excitement prevails in Baltimore. The
. streets are barricaded, and the secessionists
r threaten to rise.
The city papers publish this morning,extracts
from the New York papers of the 3d and 4th
instants. The latest despatches referred to the

Gen. Schiniulsfocr is also a prisoner in the hands
of the rebels, Gen. Marriedeta was wqutided.

Old Bennett, of the New York Herald, lias
again turned a complete summersault. Until
very recently he has been a strong war man
and supporter of the Administration; now is
furiously for peace. It used to be said of the
Herald, that whatever political candidate it
supported or project it favored was sure to be
defeated. We hope the "saw" will not prove
true in the present instance.

Australia is a land of contraries. There the
North wind is the hot wind, and the South the
cool; the westerly wind tho most unhealthy,
and the east the most salubrious. The swans
there are black, aDd the eagles white. Some
of its rivers flow toward the centre, instead of
' toward the sea, and the codfish is found in the
rivers, while the perch is found in the sea.
The valleys are cold, and the mountain tops
warm. The myrtle is a lofty tree, and the
poplar a dwarfish shrub. Such is the continent
of Australia.
