Memphis, July 30. The Bulletin of this morning has the fol- iowing from authentic sources, among other interesting items as to :he proceedings of the Confederates. The steamers Herald and Memphis had ar- aired from Liverpool with valuable supplies, and the steamer Economist was expected, rmi had probabiy reached there. as a large aide wheel steamer ran in last Friday. Two itonvclad rams, similar to the Merri- mm are being completed at Charleston to deit‘roy the bloclggzderp, We have some inkling of the subjects disâ€" cussed at two conferences of all the principal Confederate military leaders, :11 Richmond on the 4th and 5th inst. It is aneged that the following plan ofOpe- ravinno for the remainder of the summer mmpavgn was agreed upon :«I’asn the im- It is understood that they must lose no more territory. The defensive policy was strongly attacked, and both Lee and Beauregard ad- vise the invasion of the North at three points, viz., from Cumberland and VVilliamsport into Pennsylvania, from Louisville and Cincin- nati into Indiana and Ohio, and from Pamaeh and Cairo into Illinois. Governor Tad. nf Ohio, has decided that after the 15m of August he will ay no more bounties. If there shall be a eficiency of volunteers then, it will be made up" by draft wighput bgnmy. Other Govérnors propose the same thing, and the Secretary of War will probably adopt The J. L. Webb, a prerful ocean tow boat is also up that river, and has been plated something in the style of the Sumter. She is constructed as a ram. They have also the Mobile, mounting one gun. The Star of the West and the Web came up from New Or- leans, when that city was captured. bringing among other Confederate plunder, 108 guns. A! Liverpool, 65 miles up the river, the Con- federates have an ingeniously contrived raft, which. is a perfect 10ch against ascending boats. They also have a batterry on shore at point in addition to the above named vessels, and there are about 30 river steamers up the Yazoo River. The Times has a special from Memphis, of the 28th inst, which says that late advi- ces from the South by Confederate sources are important. 10 iron-clad gunboats, built in England and fully equipped, have arrived off Mobile harbor. Three more are on the way. These constitute a fleet ordered by the South- ern Confederacy to be purchased in Europe. They mount from 10 to 30 guns each, and are said to be nailed with 6-inch iron. Vicksburg, July 25. A gentleman, recently from the Yazoo Riv- er country, reports that the steamer Star of the West, captured OH Galveston by the Con- federates, is up that river and arrived with 22 guns. She is iron plated to aconsiderable extent. The blockede was run openly by dint of enperior strength and weight of metal. Mn- bile !5 now considered open to the world with the support of her newly acquired power. Two or three times more did Mr. Black ap~ pea], now to my fear, now to my compas- sion;but my only reply was a warning to him not to ut his foot on the stairs, a warn- ing which e conscientiously obeyed. Then I heard more bottles broken. and I knew that he was drinking himself either into a state of frenzy orastate of helplessness. How slowly the morning advanced! it seemed as though it would never be seven o’clock.â€" Every bone in my body got to ache terribly long before my weary watch was over; at intervals there danced before my eyes a strange phantasmagoria of figures, red, blue, and flame-colored ; then my prisoner below would growl and whine like a wild beast in its lair, and recall my flagging attention to the duty before me. then seven o’clock struck, I was weary almost to fainting; but help was near; for a few minutes later, Bes- sy and Mary drove up m a light cart. escort- ed by a stalwart cousin of the latter. I rushed to the door. and opened it as quickly as my trembling fingers would let me, and in a few words everything was told. The stalwart cousin was not to be alarmed by a dozen Mr. Blacks. but walked unconcernedly down stairs to see him, and there found him so helplessly drunk that no precaution was needed to keep him in safety till a constable arrived, who took him into custody and con- veyed him to the nearest jail. A long and terrific volley of curses was his only reply, but he Pllll kept carefully out of sight for much as he feared the police, he feared- a- bullet infin.tely more. “If he only knew that the pistols are not loaded l” I kept repeating to myself. After this, the silence remained unbroken for nearly five minutes; he was probably brooding over what course he should next adopt. At length he spoke again: “Let-you anud me be.reaso;abliev now,” he said ; “let us come to terms. I’ll give you bac|§_thq ppoons, and the plate, andâ€"” How beautiful to me that morning looked the firatcoid streak of daylight which stole in after a time, and seemed to whisper that deliverence was at hand ! “Not if 'you were to give back what you have stolen to the uttermost farthing, would I-let you go! Here you are, and here you shall remain till Iseethoae wrist: of yours decorated with a pair of handcufis.” Another terrible volle3r of oaths was again his reply; then I hear him knock ofl‘ the neck of a bottle, and drink at the contents.â€"~ What I dreaded more than anything was, that he \"OUtd drink till he lost the sense of fear, and then make a sudden rush up the staircase towards me ; but whatever my fears might be, I still stood resolutely on the top- most stair, peering down into the darkness with eyes that never turned away, and hold- ing a pistol firmly in either hand. Appa- rently the first result of Mr. Black’s extra bottle was to cause him to take out my watch, fling it on the floor, and crunch it into minute particles benath his heel. “Curse her! I’ll have my revenge somehow I”! heard him mutter;and then he fell to drinking more a moment, will you. while I come up stain. let bygones hey by,, 'ones, and we’ll bid each othe: a fnendly fareweh. ” wine.

Mr. Brownâ€"~we have heard it saidâ€"~fountl it necessary while in his teens, to assume the responsibilities of a major; regard ing himself as being invested with the privi- leges of manhood,he was not wanting in intre- pidity of face. In his case the spoiling process did not terminate with his minority. He be- ing a youth of some traits and controlling a public journal of large denominational power, was flattered to his injury. Supposing him- self to be somebody, he had, for a number of years, substituted declamation for argument. He aspired to be .1 leader without possessing one quality which usually secures personal friends. His temper and spirit were repulsive. He mistook dr1ving for leading. He was al- ternately used and deserted. The unkindest out Of all was in the recent transferre1:03 of al- legiance to Mr. Sandfield Macdonald on the part of Messrs. Howland, Macdougall, and Wilson. These men, politically lived, mov- ed, and had their being in Mr. Brown. The recent'preference given to M. Dorian, by in- viting him to accept a portfolio in the Govern- ment, while he, like Mr. Brown, was without. a seat in the legislature, to the neglect of the I latter, is an act that will not go unwhipt of‘ justice. Without however desiring to see Mr. Brown in Parliament solely for the pur- pose of bastinadoing his betrayers, we are of opinion that he is capable of rendering some service to his country. Some men can be re- venged upon their enemies by the perform- ance of generous actions, and some natures are so constituted as to require a vicious stimu- lant to the practice of virtue. Mr. Brown it is supposed expects a requi- sition from the County of Welland in the event of Mr. Street resigning, thileall, to of- fer himself for the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Merritt. He can probably be returned for that constituency as an Opponent of the Government. In that event he will be an object of great public interest. He will probably find himself in alliance with M. Cartier, John A. Macdonald, J. H. Cameron, and George Benjamin. " A politician, Proteus like, must alter His face, and habit; and like water, seem Of the same color that the vessel is That doth contain it; varying his form With the Chameleon at each object, change."

When these object have been accomplished the Lee and Beauregard plan was prOposed.

Sixth, to hurl upon Washington from Richmond a colâ€" umn of 200,000 for the capture of that city; the liberation of Baltimore and the invasion of the North at the three points named above. The invaders thus hope to make it necessary for us to keep at home for the defence of the cities 500,000 troops. A letter to the Herald, dated Hilton Head, July 3lst says, the rebel ram which has for a long time been in prrcess of construction at Savanah, is completed, armed and ready for service. All accounts which come to us re- present her as very formidable; she is of light draft, great power, and has a very heavy armament. Already the rebels are making the necessary soundings preparatory to bring- ing her down the river. Washington, August 4. The Post special says: In answer to a de- putation of prominent citizens who waited on the President to-day to urge the acceptance of the negro regiments, the President replied that he could not accept negro regiments. but would accept as many as oflered as laborers.

No. l and an; nexed to School Section No.9. There is a right place for Mr. Brown, as for all other persons. He has hitherto deceived himself by imagining that a usurper was fill- ing it; hence his ten years continuous effort to destroy the character of every eminent public man in Canada. He is now of mature years. Age has been mindful to stamp him with signs of venera- bility, and as if to set him apart for some special service, he is designated by a tonsure of unquestioned canonical proportions. It was ordered that the Clerk advertize deviations of road across lots 16 and 17 in the 5th con. This contest is producing the most bruta- lizing and debasing influence on the Northern pe0ple. The barbarous manner in which they treat defenceless Southern men and [women is a disgrace upon the civilized world, who quietly look on at the perpetration of horrors scarcely less revolting than the acts of Nana Sahib in the Indian mutiny of 1857. The prospect of subjugating the South having vanished, the desire of the Federals appears to be the infliction of as many horrors as base minds can invent. Women are incarcerated in prison, and old, defenceless men are held as hostages by the Federals; and when any of the latter are killed, a hostage is shot in retaliation. Innumerable atrocities of a more revolting character are daily perpetrat- cd by those “sons of freedom.” Met at the Argyle Hotel, Durham, on the 5th Inst. Members present. The Reeve, Messrs.

The question now arises, whether the Guelph market will be able to pay a higher price for grain, e., in order te compensate for the extra distance of carriage and the expense of '1‘.olls Kentucky and Tennessee are nearly free of Federal rule, while Arkansas is entirely evacuated, and the invading army, to the number of 30,000 men, surrendered prisoners of war. In Virginia the Federals are evident- ly on the defensive. Richmond is now more inpregnable against their attacks than it ever was;yet the telegraph brings a daily load of boast, bluster and threat of its immedi- ate capture. Let the end of the war come when it may the result will be the establish- ment of the Southern Confederacy. During the two last years various efforts have been made to direct the traffic of this section of Country via Collingwood to Toronto. Thv waggon Carriage will be thirteen miles less, than to Guelph, while the absence of Tolls will make a difference of Two Dollars to each team per trip. A part of the road through Nottawasaga, Osprey, and Artemesia is not yet completed, but owing to the inde- fatigable efforts of our to“ nsman D. Jackson, Esq. , the several Corporations named have undertaken the completion of the work. The Northern Railway Company have commenced the erection of a public storehouse capable of holding sixty thousand bushels of wheat, besides another building for the storage of flour. The recent call of President. Lincoln for 300,000 additional troops has been so feebly responded to that an order was issued on the 4th inst. declaring that on the 15th inst the conscription act will be put in force unless the requisite number of men are raised pre- viously. Thousands of British subjects are claiming protection from the several British Consuls in the Northern towns and cities, and many more who can obtain passports are leaving for Canada. Colllngwood vs. Guelph. Glenelg Council. American War. in of Previous to'the arrival of the steamship , Minho at Charleston, there was scarcely the ; means and material of war for a day’s de- fence of the city and its approaches. Since ' the arrival, five regiments have been well ? armed, five heavy rifled guns have been put . in sition for the defence of James Island. an an abundance of war munitions and clothing provided for the Confederate troops in that quarter, so that possibly the plans of General Hunter may be defe uted for the cap- ture of that city, or realized at an immense ' cost of human life. The cargo of the Minho would not have reached its destination, as I am informed, but for the kind assistance of a United States transport schooner, coal-loaded , and bound to Key West, which was spoken by the Minho, claiming to be in distress, “ From Liverpool bound to Havana, and out of coal!” The Captain promptly gave fifteen tons of United States coal at the reasonable charge of $5 per ton, and received in pay- ment an order on the owner or owner’s agent in Havana tor $75, of which notice has been received here, and the draft will be honored at sight.

A Smree, in cannection with the above, will be held in the Orange Hall next Monday, at 5P. M. Eight Hundred Million Dollars. I have received information that the Brit- ish steamship Minho, 800 tons, arrived at Nassau, from Charleston, S. C., having enter- ed that rt, in spite of the blockading squad- ron, Wit a valuable cargo intended chiefly for the defence of that city, of which the fol- lowing memorandum has been furnished me: â€"5,000 Enfield rifles, 150 tons best water- proof English powder, five (lOO-pounders) ri- fle Wentworth cannon, ordered expressly for the defence of Charleston, a stock of medi- cines which cost in London £8,000, with other cargo of various classes of munitions, c., besides which she had on board for the Con- federate Government 50,000 pairs} of blankets and a laro'e lot of soldiers’ shoes. The Minho, which belongs to an English house, was so confident of running the blockade that she ef- fected no insurance, and is said to have clear- ed this voyage (including 500 bales of cotton, now on its way to Liverpool) nearly $600,000, a nice item secured from the inefficiency of our blockading squadron._ In the same tplegraphic report which an- nounceq the adJouynment o_f C9ng_ress_,__we are told that nearly eight hundred million dollars have been appropriated during the late session. ' There are now about 8,000,000 voters in all the United States. If the sum appropriat- ed by Congress this single session were ap- portioned among the voters. it would make about $200 for‘each voter to pay. The State of Wisconsin nox'v includes near- ly one-twentieth of the Northern population. She will doubtless be forced to meet quite one-twentieth of these appropriations. That would amount to forty million dollars. [fthe South pays its proportion of these appropria- tions, even then our share will fall little short of thirty million dollars. This we are called upon to pay in addition to all town and municipal expenses, and in addition to all that has been squandered by our State offi- cers. Such is the cost to lVisconsin of the first regular session of a Republican Congress under a Republican national administration. The following instance of shrewdnese on the part of a blockade-running Captain, and of stupidity on that ofthe commanders of the blockading squadron novir before Charleston, is from the correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce : We will not now stop to inquire whether Wisconsin can pay this sum. l-Ve owe it so far as Congress make us owe it. And we owe much more besides. lVe owe for hunâ€" dreds of millions of dollars in addition, for which Congress has not yet provided. It is safe to say that at the end of the present year Wisconsin will owe more than all the real and personal pmperty in the State would pay if sold to the highest bidder. Every acre of land. every building, every article of personal property,every thing the people of Wisconsin own, moveable or immoveable, is virtually mortgaged to its full value to pay this debt. A Steamer runs the Blockade with Five Thousand Rgflcs, a hundred and fifty tons of Powder, and 50,000 Blankets. Bold and Successful Stratagem. Of cSurse it cannot be paid. - Not for gen- erations will it be paid. As Wendall Phillips says, the strength, the mind, the hands of every child in thegcradle is mortgaged to pa)- the interest upori it. In a crisis like this}, he who fails to consid- er well the great facts which stare him in the face. or would attempt to ignore any of the important obstacles which must be encoun- tered in the struggle in which we are enag- ed, is worthy of very little credit for patriot- tism, and much less for practical good sense.
