If I rightly oodertood tbr telrrapbie dispatch, I ibibk joor sclioo in ten. derinf to Oorernor Ilick the assittance of our Massaebaeetta troopa to toppress a threatened erT:.l insarrectioo among tho boat ile people of Marytaod, waa nnnecenaary. I hope that the fuller diapalcbea, wbicb are on their war from joa, ma ahow reaaooa whj I abould modify my opinion. I think that tbe matter of aervile io- aarrectioa among a commomij in armaagainat IS Federal Union, ia no longer to W regarded by oar troope in a political point of view, and ia to be ; contemplated aa one of the inherent weaknesses of the enemy, from the diaastrona operation of which we arc ooder no oLliaiiona of military character to gnard them, in order that they nsaj be enabled to improve the security which our arms may afford, bo aa to prosecute with more energy their traitorous attack upon the Federal Gortrnrnt and Capital. The mode in which auch outbreaks are to be coosldered should de peod entirelr upon the loyalty or disloyalty of the community in which the occur, and in tbe vicinity of Annapolis I, can on this occasion, per- ! cetve no reason of military policy why a force aaramnaed to tha defense of tbe Federal Got; r anient, at this moment of all others, should be offered to be diverted from its immediate duty, lu help rebels, who stand with arms in their hands obstructing its progress toward the city of Wash lajrton.

Sib: I have delayed replying to yonr excel.

Tempo rar inoeas wnicn loruiaa poauy aciiviiy, gives me bow a moments pause. Tha telegraph, with more than oaual accuracy, bad rightly informed your excellency that I bad oTarel the aerv.ees of the Mma-shajatts troops, ander my command, to aid tha authorities of aarrectiun. Fortunately fr us, all the rumor i f seb to outbreak was without substantial toon dalion. 'Assuming, as your eacclleucy due, in joar dispatch, that earning nn military operttt:ot,a ia an enemy'a country, when a war a Ttutrnvct waa to be weg'd, my act mi'tcht be a matter of discuss on. And in that view, acting in the liebt of tba Baltimore murlerrs and tbe apparently hostile position of Maryland, yoir excellency nigh', without mature reflection, have come to the-conclusion of disapprobation expressed in jour dispatch. But the facta, especially as now aided by their results, will entirely justify my act, and rtioatata me ia jour cxcelleory's gool opinion. - True, Ilaalal on tba soil of Maryland aga!nst tba formal protest of its. Governor and of the corporate authorities of Annapolis, but without any armea oppoattron on tneir pari, ana expect, ng opposition only from insurgents assembled ia riotous contempt of the laws of this State. Before, by letter, and at tbe time of landing, by j personal interview,' I informed Gov.

Tbe vote of tbe neighboring coaatj of Waabieg ton, a few days eiace, for its delegate to tbe Leg islature, wbereia 4,000 oat of 5,000 votee were thrown for a delegate favorable to the Uatoa, ia among tbe many bappr fraita of firmaexs of par-poee, eSciene of action, aad integrity of mission. I believe, indeed, tbat it will not require a pet-eon al interchange of view, aa anggeated ia your dispalcb, to bring oar minds ia accordance; a aim pie etatement of facta will eufSca. But I am to act hereafter, it may be, in an eoemy'a country, among servile population, when tbe question may arise, as it baa not jet ariaen, as well in a moral aad Christian, ea ia a political and mil'tiry point in view. What aball I 3o? will your Excelencj bear with ate a moment while tbia queetton ia dtacasaed. I appreciate f-llj jour Excellency' suggestion aa to tbe inherent weakness of the rebels, arising from the preponderance of their eervile population. The question, then, is, in what manner ahall we take advantage of that weak neaa ? B v allowing, and of course, arrn'msr tbat population, to rise upon tbe defenaeleas women and children of tbe country, carrying rapine, ar-aon and murder all the horrors of San Domingo, . a million times magnified, among thoee whom we hope to unite witb ns as brethren, many of whom are a'ready so, and all wbo are worth preserving, will be, when this horrible madness shall have passed away or be threshed out of them? Would jour Excellency advise tbe troops under my com. mind to make war in person npon the defense less women and chiIdrenTf any part of the Union, accompanied with brutalities too horrible to be emeo ? You will aa, "God forbid I" If we may not do eo in person, aball we arm others so to do, over whom we can have no restraint, exercise no control, and who, when once they have tasted blooJ, may turn the very arm a we put in their hands aiaiost ourselves, aa a part of the oppreaa infr white race? The reading of history, eo familiar to yonr excellency, Will tell too tbe bitter est caue of complaint which . our fatbera bad against Great Britain in the war of the Revolu tion, was the armiag by the British ministry of the red man with the tomahawk and tbe scalping knife against the women and children of the cot onies, so that the phrase, May we oot use all the means which God and nature have put ia our power to sol jugate the colonies? has passed into a legend of infamy against the leader of that ministry who need it in parliament, Shall history teach us in vain ? Could we justify ourselves to ooeselves ? A l hough with arms in our bands amid tha aavaga wildoeas of camp aad field, we may have blunted many of the finer moral sea-stniiitiea, tn leiting looae fonr millions- of worse Kan aavagea upon tbe Vomea and beartbs of tbe South, can we be justified to tha Christian community of Massachusetts ? Would such a course be consonant with the teachings of our bol religion ? 1 bava a very decided opipion npon the subject, and if any one dest-es, aa I know your excellency does not. this unhappy contest to le prosecuted In that manner, aome instrument other tbaa myself must be fuand to carry it on. I may riot discuss the political beariaga of the top ic. When I went from nnder the shadow of niy rof tree, I left all politics behind me, to bo re-aumed only when every part of the Union ia loj-al to the fl ixaml the potency of the government through the ballot-box ia established Pasftinjr the moral and Christian view let us eiamine tbe sabjeet aa a military question. Is not that State already aubjuxated which requires the bayonets of those armed in opposition to its rulers, to preserve it from the horror of a servile war? As the leat experienced of military men. I wonld iiave no doubt of the entire anbjoravion of a State brought to that condition. When, therefore unless I am better advised any com-manity jn the United States who have met me in honorable warfare, or even in the prosecution of a relixious war in an honorable manner, shall call opon me for protection againat tbe namelasa borroia of a eervile insurrection, laev aball have it ; and from the moment that call ia obeyed, I have noooubt we ahau be irieaas ana not ene mies. The possibilities that dishonorable means of defense are to be taken by tbe rebels against tbe Government, I do not bow contemplate. If as haa been done in a single instance, my men are to be attacked by poison, or, as in another, strick en dovn by tbe aaaasin's knife, and tbaa murder ed, the community using such weapons may be required to be taught that it holds within its own border a more potent meana for deadly purpose and indiscriminate slaughter tbaa any which it can administer to aa. Trusting that these views may meet jour Ex cellency's approval, I have the honor to be very respsctfully, your obedient servant, BE2JJ. F. BUTLER.

The subjoined letter from ex-President Bu chanan was received at the office of the National luttWgenetr a few3 daya ago. A friend of tbe ex-President's who happened to read the letter, and who feela much interested ia the question of honor and duty, which the letter incidentally but very strongly states, and thinking that the opinion of one who has served the country conspicuously and so long might exert e salutary influence on the opinions of others, asked and obtained the consent of the distinguished writer to ita publication, and it is published accordingly: . " ' .:- Wbeatulxo. May C, 1861. To lh EJUort of tht National InXtUigencer : ' GEm.EVEX In the confusion of the times I bare not received yoor tri-weeklj numbers 9,157 and 9,158, of April 27 and April 30. I believe. As yours is the only paper of which I preserve a file, I should feel great) obliged if you would send me these numlxm. Several items in the Intelligencer bave awaken ed my attention to the facility witb which mili-tar? gcutlemen relieve themselves from their oaths and change their allegiance- A military oath baa ever been he'd sacred in all ages and in all countries. Besides the-solemn sanctions of religion, there in superadded the highest appeal to personal honor. Each military office swears that be will bear true allegiance, to the United State", and servo them boaeatly and faith full againat all their enemies and opposers what" aoever. They do not awear to support tbe Con atitntion of an State. - Educated by the Uaited States, they belong to the Federal Government in a peculiar sense. Whilst I caa imagine why an officer enteht reviga ratbee lhaa ahad tha blood of eiliaens of his native State in war, yet it is difficult to excuse oe ralliaie ik mi is tb ia to go over to the enemy, and make war npon the time honored flag of the country. Major Beauregard, when be discharged the fi rat gun against Fort Sumter, lighted a flame which will require a long time to extinguish. The people of the North at present are enthusiastically naantmooa. Tbev never were aranaed anttl tbat shot was fired. I often warned Southern gentle men tbat this would be the inevitable result. I enjoy good health', and as tranquil a' spirit as tbe evils impending over my country will permit. Tour friend, very respectfully, James Bcciuvas. The Blockade. Tbe blockade of Southern ports by the U. 8. squadron appears to be carried oat with vigor and promptitude. At Charleston tbe entrance of tbe three British vessels have been prevented by tbe frigate Niagara; and another, after being boarded, waa allowed to paaa up. One ship, however, carrying the British flsg, succeeded in running the blockade, although she was pursued. She eventually got into shoal water and waa towed np to the eity. An important seizure of an outward American ship wss made by the gunboat Quaker City at the mouth of the Chesapeake, on Tuesday with a cargo of tobacco for Europe. She was loaded at Richmond, and is valued at $15,000. The vessel proved to be tbe Arago, belonging to Bath, Maine, and though carrying tba Uaited Statea flag ahe was seized, no dnubv oa the double charre of runnin? the blockade, and nf treason, in assisting the rebel Statea, ahe being a Northern ship. Commodore Stringham put a prize crew on board, and sent her on her way to New Tork, where ahe will be confiscated. This is the first prize taken by the United States blockading squadron. r The porta of Florida have been pot ander blockade since the 6th inst., and theyacht Wan derer, of slave trade notoriety, baa beea seized eff Key West hv the Crnsader. The blockade of the Mississippi Is to be strictly enforced. Orders have been received at Cairo to stop all commerce to a state ia rebellion. AH boats are brought to, and the necesiary ex amination made, and whatever articles contra band are found are taken possession of by the Sarvevor of the port. As almost everything which composes tbe freight of boats in the lower trade, excepting dry goods and tobacco, is in cluded ia tbe forbidden list, tba few boats which are now running have to depend npon tbe pas senger trade for support- As this will not jus Ufj them is running aaj great length of time, aa entire suspension of business oa the river is look ed for ' ' r " v :- Gen.

Blood has beea shed in the struggle, and when it wt'.l cease to flow no living man can tell. : Fort Sumter bas fallen, after forty hours horn, bardment- Thus the South has I struck the first blow, which, ia civil contest, is often half the cattle. Washington was wild with excitement on receiving news of the surrender, and preparations for war were instantly ordered.; If tbe war were . one of en oppeased people against a -foreign tyrant, the bloodshed and loss of life wonld not excite in our hearts tbe painful emotion caused by this disastrous collision. But' in the present case tbe combatants are men who, . nntil a few daya ago, were of the same nation, free subjects ofone government, covered by one flag. The men who engage ia the work of aangbter are kindred to one another. In many eases brothers will be fooad ia the opposing ranks.

The mode in which auch outbreaks are to be coosldered should de peod entirelr upon the loyalty or disloyalty of the community in which the occur, and in tbe vicinity of Annapolis I, can on this occasion, per- ! cetve no reason of military policy why a force aaramnaed to tha defense of tbe Federal Got; r anient, at this moment of all others, should be offered to be diverted from its immediate duty, lu help rebels, who stand with arms in their hands obstructing its progress toward the city of Wash lajrton.

I believe, indeed, tbat it will not require a pet-eon al interchange of view, aa anggeated ia your dispalcb, to bring oar minds ia accordance; a aim pie etatement of facta will eufSca. But I am to act hereafter, it may be, in an eoemy'a country, among servile population, when tbe question may arise, as it baa not jet ariaen, as well in a moral aad Christian, ea ia a political and mil'tiry point in view. What aball I 3o? will your Excelencj bear with ate a moment while tbia queetton ia dtacasaed. I appreciate f-llj jour Excellency' suggestion aa to tbe inherent weakness of the rebels, arising from the preponderance of their eervile population. The question, then, is, in what manner ahall we take advantage of that weak neaa ? B v allowing, and of course, arrn'msr tbat population, to rise upon tbe defenaeleas women and children of tbe country, carrying rapine, ar-aon and murder all the horrors of San Domingo, . a million times magnified, among thoee whom we hope to unite witb ns as brethren, many of whom are a'ready so, and all wbo are worth preserving, will be, when this horrible madness shall have passed away or be threshed out of them? Would jour Excellency advise tbe troops under my com. mind to make war in person npon the defense less women and chiIdrenTf any part of the Union, accompanied with brutalities too horrible to be emeo ? You will aa, "God forbid I" If we may not do eo in person, aball we arm others so to do, over whom we can have no restraint, exercise no control, and who, when once they have tasted blooJ, may turn the very arm a we put in their hands aiaiost ourselves, aa a part of the oppreaa infr white race? The reading of history, eo familiar to yonr excellency, Will tell too tbe bitter est caue of complaint which . our fatbera bad against Great Britain in the war of the Revolu tion, was the armiag by the British ministry of the red man with the tomahawk and tbe scalping knife against the women and children of the cot onies, so that the phrase, May we oot use all the means which God and nature have put ia our power to sol jugate the colonies? has passed into a legend of infamy against the leader of that ministry who need it in parliament, Shall history teach us in vain ? Could we justify ourselves to ooeselves ? A l hough with arms in our bands amid tha aavaga wildoeas of camp aad field, we may have blunted many of the finer moral sea-stniiitiea, tn leiting looae fonr millions- of worse Kan aavagea upon tbe Vomea and beartbs of tbe South, can we be justified to tha Christian community of Massachusetts ? Would such a course be consonant with the teachings of our bol religion ? 1 bava a very decided opipion npon the subject, and if any one dest-es, aa I know your excellency does not. this unhappy contest to le prosecuted In that manner, aome instrument other tbaa myself must be fuand to carry it on. I may riot discuss the political beariaga of the top ic. When I went from nnder the shadow of niy rof tree, I left all politics behind me, to bo re-aumed only when every part of the Union ia loj-al to the fl ixaml the potency of the government through the ballot-box ia established Pasftinjr the moral and Christian view let us eiamine tbe sabjeet aa a military question. Is not that State already aubjuxated which requires the bayonets of those armed in opposition to its rulers, to preserve it from the horror of a servile war? As the leat experienced of military men. I wonld iiave no doubt of the entire anbjoravion of a State brought to that condition. When, therefore unless I am better advised any com-manity jn the United States who have met me in honorable warfare, or even in the prosecution of a relixious war in an honorable manner, shall call opon me for protection againat tbe namelasa borroia of a eervile insurrection, laev aball have it ; and from the moment that call ia obeyed, I have noooubt we ahau be irieaas ana not ene mies. The possibilities that dishonorable means of defense are to be taken by tbe rebels against tbe Government, I do not bow contemplate. If as haa been done in a single instance, my men are to be attacked by poison, or, as in another, strick en dovn by tbe aaaasin's knife, and tbaa murder ed, the community using such weapons may be required to be taught that it holds within its own border a more potent meana for deadly purpose and indiscriminate slaughter tbaa any which it can administer to aa. Trusting that these views may meet jour Ex cellency's approval, I have the honor to be very respsctfully, your obedient servant, BE2JJ. F. BUTLER.

To lh EJUort of tht National InXtUigencer : ' GEm.EVEX In the confusion of the times I bare not received yoor tri-weeklj numbers 9,157 and 9,158, of April 27 and April 30. I believe. As yours is the only paper of which I preserve a file, I should feel great) obliged if you would send me these numlxm. Several items in the Intelligencer bave awaken ed my attention to the facility witb which mili-tar? gcutlemen relieve themselves from their oaths and change their allegiance- A military oath baa ever been he'd sacred in all ages and in all countries. Besides the-solemn sanctions of religion, there in superadded the highest appeal to personal honor. Each military office swears that be will bear true allegiance, to the United State", and servo them boaeatly and faith full againat all their enemies and opposers what" aoever. They do not awear to support tbe Con atitntion of an State. - Educated by the Uaited States, they belong to the Federal Government in a peculiar sense. Whilst I caa imagine why an officer enteht reviga ratbee lhaa ahad tha blood of eiliaens of his native State in war, yet it is difficult to excuse oe ralliaie ik mi is tb ia to go over to the enemy, and make war npon the time honored flag of the country. Major Beauregard, when be discharged the fi rat gun against Fort Sumter, lighted a flame which will require a long time to extinguish. The people of the North at present are enthusiastically naantmooa. Tbev never were aranaed anttl tbat shot was fired. I often warned Southern gentle men tbat this would be the inevitable result. I enjoy good health', and as tranquil a' spirit as tbe evils impending over my country will permit. Tour friend, very respectfully, James Bcciuvas. The Blockade. Tbe blockade of Southern ports by the U. 8. squadron appears to be carried oat with vigor and promptitude. At Charleston tbe entrance of tbe three British vessels have been prevented by tbe frigate Niagara; and another, after being boarded, waa allowed to paaa up. One ship, however, carrying the British flsg, succeeded in running the blockade, although she was pursued. She eventually got into shoal water and waa towed np to the eity. An important seizure of an outward American ship wss made by the gunboat Quaker City at the mouth of the Chesapeake, on Tuesday with a cargo of tobacco for Europe. She was loaded at Richmond, and is valued at $15,000. The vessel proved to be tbe Arago, belonging to Bath, Maine, and though carrying tba Uaited Statea flag ahe was seized, no dnubv oa the double charre of runnin? the blockade, and nf treason, in assisting the rebel Statea, ahe being a Northern ship. Commodore Stringham put a prize crew on board, and sent her on her way to New Tork, where ahe will be confiscated. This is the first prize taken by the United States blockading squadron. r The porta of Florida have been pot ander blockade since the 6th inst., and theyacht Wan derer, of slave trade notoriety, baa beea seized eff Key West hv the Crnsader. The blockade of the Mississippi Is to be strictly enforced. Orders have been received at Cairo to stop all commerce to a state ia rebellion. AH boats are brought to, and the necesiary ex amination made, and whatever articles contra band are found are taken possession of by the Sarvevor of the port. As almost everything which composes tbe freight of boats in the lower trade, excepting dry goods and tobacco, is in cluded ia tbe forbidden list, tba few boats which are now running have to depend npon tbe pas senger trade for support- As this will not jus Ufj them is running aaj great length of time, aa entire suspension of business oa the river is look ed for ' ' r " v :- Gen.
