Cheering signs in New York.--The N. Y. Sun proclaims that the rebels are already encamped in New York.
“Jeff. Davis has succeeded in enlisting recruits in this city, and whoever passes through the streets, within a few blocks from our office, can hear the click of their guards and the ring of Southern steel, as they ground arms and shoulder arms.
He has sentinels all the way through Long Island, from within a mile of Fort Hamilton, and through Manhattan Island, from within hail of the ferry-boats sa they pass.” --Richmond Whig, May 13.
