CHAaLEsrowS, Va, November 2s--P. M
Saturday and Sunday the town was crowded
with strangers and military. Extensive pre-
psrstions are making for the reception OF the
additional military forces now approaching.
Churches are all taken possession Of for bar
racks. Sentipels sre nightly firing at imagin-
ary foes, and number Of citizens have mar
rowly escaped their bullets.
Sunday night the military confidently OK
pected an attack, and sentriss were doubled;
no foes appeared, however. How they are ex-
pected to arrive Is not stated, but as the coun-
try is being patrolled for twenty miles around,
Il must be by the underground railroad. It is
stated on good authority that Governor Wise
has sent spies into Ohio and Pennsylvania, and
It is from their reports that large bodies OF
men arc arming and moving toward Virginia;
that the military forces are being so largely
augmented. About seven hundred additional
troops have arrived here since Saturday, in
cluding two companies from Wheeling, SO
that we have now about one thousand five
hundred military under arms.
A letter from Huntington County, Penn,
states that large bodies Of armed men are NOV
ing toward Virginia, across North Mountain,
supposed to be on their way to Charlsstown.
These reports arc the cause Of constant panic.
ALI 10 quiet to-day, and arrangements are be-
ing made for the erection Of the gallows.

TIE TALKED OF EDITORIAL DUEL.-We have
referred to the prospect of duel between
two OF the leading editors Of the city, Mr..
Geo. P. Buell. Of the Evening Tsmss, and Mr..
Murat Halstead Of the Daily Commercial, in
regard to comment by the latter journal upon
An article In the former. The correspondence
between the gentlemen has been published,
and from that it seems that the Commercially
explanation of the offensive article was not
satisfactory to Mr.. Buell., who, by his friend,
Major Washington Armstrong, desired to know
where note would reach Mr.. Halstead out.
side the jurisdiction Of Ohio. To this note Mr..
Hsletesd refused to make any reply, or to pro-
ceed any further in the affair; whereupon Mr..
Buall publishes card in the Times aud, after
referring to the correspondence, closes thus:
"lt will be observed that Murat Halstead
possesses the qualities of the blackguard, but
sbr:nks, In the spirit Of that etiquette properly
termed physical cowardice, from any opera
tions involving personal rick. As he has, in
my opinion, placed himself beyond tho pale
OF honorable men by refusing to repair
IN apparently Intentional injury, I shall
not consider myself under tho necessity of
noticing anything he may write or say. When
he shall relieve himself, by the only method In
his power, from the imputatlons In this article,
40 will find me ready to accommodate him to
any imaginable extent"
So the affair stood last evening-what more
msy take place no one can say.
