Arrest of a latter day Southern Patriot. --A man named H. L. Martin was arrested in this city on Thursday, on the order of Inspector General John H. Winder, by Detective Maccubbin, as a suspicious person, and being carried before the War Department, was, after an examination, conveyed to the county jail for safe keeping. The party alluded to hails from Mississippi, and has been for a long time a Federal office-holder. When Lincoln came into office and thought proper to exact an oath of obedience and fealty from his dependants, Martin took the obligation and pay consequent thereon. Lately a change has come over the spirit of his dreams. Some two weeks since he disappeared from Washington. The next heard of him is that he arrived in Richmond, and is seeking an office under the Confederate States Government.--Circumstances connected with his exodus from Washington pointed suspicion towards him, and he was arrested on the well- grounded apprehension that he was not a true patri

blessing by the labors and sufferings of our fathers, may be restored in all its original excellency: Therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, do appoint the last Thursday in September next as a day of humiliation, prayer, andd to the Throne of Grace and bring down plentiful blessings upon our own country. In testimony whereof, &c., Abraham Lincoln. By the President: W. H. Seward, Secretary of State. Surely, "the devil can cite Scripture for his purpose."

s and the Confederate States, and before intercourse between the two sections had been interdicted, several business houses of Baltimore had removed their stocks of goods to Richmond, for reasons satisfactory to themselves. Among them was the dry goods house of Lanier, Brothers & Co. We are informed that they brought their goods hither by way of Washington, and were not obstructed. One of the firm, Mr. L. L. Lanier, returned to Baltimore a few days ago, and on Tuesday last was arrested by Lincoln's police on the charge of treason, in having "furnished aid and comfort to the enemy !" These facts we learn from the Baltimore Sun, which paper also announces the arrest of Mr. J. W. Silby, of the same firm, by order of General Banks, at Sandy Hook, Maryland. The Baltimore Exchange, of Thursday, contradicts the arrest of Mr. Lanier, but the Sun, of the same date, reiterates its previous statement, that he was arrested and sent to the Fort. We are unable to say which is correct, but we s

h ground? Can we say that where the clergy, magistrates, Senators, and all classes of the people, are of one mind for separation, and where an army of 100,000 men, an active aggressive navy, and a President and Senate, are ready to enforce the general wish, that there is, notwithstanding such facts, no secession, no separation, and no recognizable belligerent? We see a new Government organized; we see a vast army occupying strong posts, daily increasing in numbers, and so strong that President Lincoln is in hot haste to attack it; we see the ships of the North carried captive into the ports of the South; we see a strong for besieged in military form and captured by the South; we see a Confederation of States, in which the people are as one man in support of the new Government, and we are told, forsooth, to leave out of mind all these facts, and say that there are no such facts, and no such belligerents.--We do not choose to say the manifest untruth dictated to us, and because we wil
