Il E@% The Washington correspondent OF
the Cincinnati Gazette telegraphs the foi-
lowing Hens, a part NofAwhich he CLEANS
from the Virginia papers:
go The Alexandria Sentinel has the follow
ing items:
Col Smith, of the Virginia Military In
stitute, has offered to go with 80 cadets and
Two hoYitzers to Charlestown. Gov. Wise
told him to stand still, but keep ready.
When the troops left Riehrnond the
Knight Templars and the Sons of Malta
offered themselves, and were accepted for
patrol duty. qqa @
Jesse Bean, formerly of Norristown, Pa,
has been run out of Mcdowell county, Va,
because the people did not like his sentl-
ments. 8fI
Two suspicious white men were arrested
at Petersburg, on Saturday night. II.
While the troops were leaving ON the
cars at Charlestown, on Sunday morning,
some one approached Gov. Wise and said
that the people were laughing at such a
great military display when there was no
actual necessity for it. "Well," sail the
Governor, /" would much rather meet gem
eral ridcule than general disgrace-for such
it would be, were the prisoners to be res
cued.
Speculations continue rife. in regard to
the organization of the House, and l fear
deep-Iaid game is being played to prevent
the Republicans from securing the Speak
ership- good many of the Anti-LecOmp-
ton Democrats are being worked upon by
the agents of the Administration party, and
it is reported to-day that Messrs. Haskln
and Clarke, of New York, are determined
not to vote for Republican for Speaker. -
This, however, would not prevent them
voting for the plurality rule, which is all
the assistance expected or desired, from
them
TheSouth Americans are working around
and are, OF course, desirous of making as
good terms for themselves as possible, and
may attempt some such game as they played
in New York. aa
The surmise that French, late of the Treas
ury Extension, charged with defalcation in
Office, is about to leave the country, proves
not to be correct. He is said to be in New
York, preparing for his trial.
The Virginia papers have cooled down
miserably to-day, end are not as piquant as
they were day or so back. -
The Richmond Enquirer continues to play
solo on one string, however, and its last
recommendation is that Southerners shall
stop buying trashy Northern boots and
shoes This will be dreadful news to the
people of Lynn, Mass, and the Yankees
generally, who will doubtless, be frightened
into good behavior by this fearful PROPOSE
ton. Northern peddlers must also shun
the Palmetto State as a correspondent OF
the Charleston Mercury, writing from Black
vile, in that State, after narrating the cir
cumstance connected with the tarring of
Salvo, says: lTIE
"On the 14th, we sent off foot traveller,
who was passing through the country with
an air-gun, a dice-bux, and some stereosco-
pic views; and last night we started back to
Charlestown, a mall named Jones, who came
here with his wife direct from Vermont, for
the professed purpose OF taking ambrotypes.
Having no use for such vagabond charac-
ters, when they hail from Abolition territo-
ry, we advise them to keep away"
A petition to the Legislature of Virginia
is now circulating in that State, which re-
cites the evils resulting from the sale OF
spirits to the slaves, and the impolicy OF
allowing Northern peddlers to have inter
course with them. lDf
1t is thought that the withdrawal Of Har-
ney from San Juan will tend greatly to fa-
cilitate a speedy settlement of the dispute,
particularly if followed by the retirement OF
Gov. Douglass. l-i3 TT

Philadelphia, is defaulter to the tune of
$50, 000. }5 o.f -
