WARRINGTON, Nov. 20.-P, M.--Four more
companies under Col Weisiger, arrived in
this afternoons boat. On reaching the depot
n was ascertained that the locomotive which
,ool, the troops to the Relay House this
morning had not returned and the only re-
manning one at this station was insufficient
for the regular train and extra cars. The
troops are, therefore, compelled to await the
arrival of another locomotive, which has
been telegraphed for TO Baltimore.
II is autnoritatively stated that the cause
or the sudden and early departure of the for
COS for Charlestown was more to give as
,ranca and confidence to the population of
tha unner counties-also for suitable drill in
comn and field duties required on the days OF
execution, and by the presence OF an over
nowering force to prevent any projected at
famNt at rescue than from fear OF any re-
norted body of armed men, the statement in
reoard to which is not credited by governor
Wise. The Governors promptitude and en-
erpy exctes universal admiration
LATER.
The locomotive has arrived, and the troops,
cannon, and military chests are all on board
an extra train.
An offer was made to Governor Wise this
IN orning, by Mayor Bacon, of Washington,
of the service of the District regiment at a
moments notice. on this or any other occa-
sion. The Governor thanked him for the Of
fer. but remarked that Virginia had plen-
ty of strong arms and stout hearts for any
present emergency, and did not anticipate
ever being compelled to ask federal or for
eion aid for the defence of her boreers and
institutions.
The following dispatch, from a reliable
source. was received late this morning.:
Horper's Ferry, Nov. l9th.-Various ru-
mors have been atloat to day as to the ap-
proach of armed men from Ohio. The re-
Spectacle source from which the report orig
mated created some excitement at Charles
town, but none here. Our people are very
quiet, not expecting any attempt at rescue,
nor do they fear any, however formidable,
because they are prepared for any emergen
CIV. The numerous fires about Charlestown
have induced the citizens to anticipate some
annoyance. They are more easily excited,
but no one is afraid of the result, even if an
attempt should be made. Col Davis has
made the most ample provisions for aAy nnm-
Der of outlaws who may make a call. |
learn that more troops are asked for of Gov
Wise, but this may be as much to protec t
the prisoners from the incensed pepulace as
ANYTHING else. can learn of no cause to
apprehend danger.

The Richmond troops arrived at this

town, by special train. 1t is understood
that they will go into encampment there IN
