From Nassau, N. P.
--An arrival at Charleston, S. C., brings Nassau dates to the 10th inst. Rev. Moses D. Hoge, of Richmond, had arrived there safely, and would shortly sail for England. Sam Whiting, U. S. Consul at Nassau, had been recalled, on complaint of the Governor, for getting drunk and abusing Queen Victoria and her subjects in a violent manner. A Mr. Doty, of the staff of Gov. Morgan, of New York, has been appointed his successor. Sam published a card before he left thanking some friends for a serenade of U. S. national tunes, which "were so rarely heard in Nassau." A citizen of Charleston, S. C., who reached Nassau a few days since thus writes to the Courier: The sentiment appears to be all one way; the natives of the North living here are mostly pro- Southern, or at least in favor of peace; and, more strange than all, the negroes — the victims of British "freedom"--throw up their hats for "Dixie" I have talked with a number of intelligent Northern gentlemen here and have found them vehemently opposed to Lincoln and his war policy. Among the British, as at home on their own Island, there is scarcely a dissentient from the popular current of feeling. A surprising and gratifying illustration of this was afforded upon our arrival at Nassau. As we approached the town flags on the British vessels in the harbor dipped to our Confederate Stars and Bars, and as we neared a large war vessel lying at anchor we received the same courtesy. Near the frigate was a tender, filled with a portion of its crew, at least fifty in number. As we returned the salute the gallantment-of-warsmen broke forth with the "Bennie Blue Flag." which they sang with a loudness and spirit that did credit to their heads and hearts. As they shouted the last refrain-- ‘ "Hurrah! hurrah!For Southern rights, hurrah!
Hurrah! for the 'Bennie Blue Flag'
That bears the single star"--
’ The thrill that passed through our band of exiles, as we stood on the deck of our vessel, involuntarily brought our bands together in applause. I fled upon landing, that the "Bennie Blue Flag," as well as "Dixie," and "My Maryland, " are the only ditties used by the piano players and street boys. As I write a small dark is under my window is giving the world vocal assurance of his determination to "live and die in Dixie."
