AN EVENT was recently transpired in Virginia which ought to be known throughout the entire length and breadth of New England. MT. Spear, native of Maine, has been engaged for many years in the lumber business in the old Domini- on, and has employed for this purpose several hundred hands constantly. He owned several thousands of acres on the seaboard there, and has large saw-mills, which have been in con- stant operation. Recently he left on a short vis- it to his native State, and when he returned he found that his entire force had been seized by the Virginia authorities and putin prison. The condition of their release was an enlistment in the c. s. A. Army, otherwise they would remain in durance vile. Several, under this threat en- listed, but the majority remain confined and are treated with the greatest ignominy.
 ARRIVAL OF THE GREAT EAsTERN.-Ihe G''em Eastern arrived at New York on Satur day, with foreign dates to the lst, being three days later. The passage was made in days, l3 hours She encountered tremendous gale on the 5th, and rolled heavily, but no sea went over her lofty sides.
 The southern commissioners had left Eng land. Mr. Gregory's motion in the commons fol the recognition of the southern confederacy was postponed for two weeks. In the House O Lords, 18th ult., Lord Woodhouse stated, in re ply to question, that the government recogni zed no right or obligation to interfere in the con fict unhappily commenced in America, either automatically or otherwise. The English pa pers continue to discuss American affairs, the entire London press, except the Times, sympa. thizing warmly with the loyal states, and antci pating an early triumph for the government. The Times fears serious conflict if the North is de termincd to force obedience.
 The state of affairs at Warsaw is unchanged. The emperor of Morocco has recognized ths kingdom of Italy. Turkey has proposed tha | 1000 French soldiers remain in Syria, until th' reforms proposed by the European commission are completely carried out.

NORFOLK.

The Ladies of Norfolk are making some fan nel shirts for the gallant band of Unionists, who are fighting secession hand to hand in St. Louis, Missouri, under the lead of Col. Frank Blair. An excellent idea, and one that might we'll be initiated by the ladies in every town in the county, while the gentlemen might send money and muskcts. They can all be easily sent, as such articles are not contraband.

H@ We notice by our Legislative reports that Judge W. W. ELLSWORTH of the Supreme Court, has rendered his resignation to the Governor, to take effect on the 10th of November nezSy at which time he become constitutionally ineligible to the office of Judge, attaining on that day his roth yenr.
 Enc loss to the Supreme Court and to the bench of Connecticut which this circumstance entails, cannot be too largely estimated. Judge ELLSWORTH has long been one of the most reyer ed and popular judges of the highest court. His legal abities which are of the very highest order have conferred no less honor upon the Court he has been 50 long associated with than upon him. self. His great learning has been always blend cd with unimpeachable personal integrity and the most gentle and courteous dcmeanor in his intercourse with advocates anG litigants. His loss will be nes more severely felt by his distin- guished associates than by all who have had the honor and pleasure to argue cases before him. He goes into private life in the flower of his age and in the full possession of mental vigor We shall hose to have still the benefit of his wisdom and counsel in other walks of life for many years. May his old age be green and hearty!- May his vigor and force be unimpaired yet for many seasons May his declining years, be cheered and irradiated by the well-won conscious ness of long life we'll spent, and may he long live to enjoy the gratitude and blessing of peo- pie who delight to honor him
 The New Haven papers speak of Ex-Gov. Dut- ton of that city, and Nelson J Buel of Water bury among those named as Judge Ellsworths successor.

b0- An appeal is nsade through the St. Lou is papers by the gallant FRANK BLAIR, Member of Congress from that city, for aid in defending that city against the secessionists. Aid cannot be expected from the state government, which s in the hands of secessionists and disunionists, hence this appeal goes forth to the great North, which is 50 lavish in its bounty and generous in it's patriotic endeavors to preserve and perpetu- ate the National Government.
 The appeal shauld not fall dead unon Cox. sscrIcTr men! All of our towns could and should do something for them. Let material aid, in the shape of money, clothing, OF arms be sent at once to the gallant band of unionists and it will be gratefully received and wea be- stowsdl

@ We hope our legislature will not exhibit anything like parsimony in appropriations for our volunteers. A one half mill tax on the grand list would pay off the s2.Ooo.ooO in ten years.

B@~ The New Haven Journal of Monday, in giving the list of the Companies newly accepted for the 4th Regiment, properly says:-
 Wssuppose this arrangement is " orthodo1''- but why is it that a company just volunteered is accepted before all the rest, and companies pre- viously accepted in the same regiment for three months, reduced in grade to make room for younger ones?
 And we should like to know ,chy this is so, too Cur Company ranked Company A" in the frs, formation of the Regiment, and was the first, or among the very first to reenlist for three years, and now they are put down to the ,ainth place on the list, and new Hartford Company is giv' en the post of honor. There is either some un' warrantable favoritism about this matter, o, slse unmitigated knarery.

Cheap Patriotism.


 A vast deal of cheap patriotism is vented nowadays, both by the press and the people e- too much for the best good of the country, and too frivolous and unmeaning for the stefs crisis of the times.
 Our excellent communication addressed to the ENQUIRER from Sleepy Hollow" which we print in another column, gives expression to our idea, in an irony which is none too severe, though so trenchantly biting
 There is great deal of talk, talk, taAk-a great deal Of snnecessmy talk, we mean, and psoftless discussion.
 What we want is ACTION!
 Talk is well in it's way. We like to hear the latest news and discuss it. We like to boast of what our Sister States are doing, and what our Legislature is doing, and what our sister towns are doing. Such discussions are not wrong in themselves; perhaps not empty or vain-gior- ous.
 But we alf of us cam DO soMErHIsd. livery man ought to 5e liberal, as well as h7lS hoera': Every woman and child ought to be employed in doiuo for our volunteers-their personal comfort and health; or if these are already cared for, for these who are not cared for, land there are such,) who are not properly clothed or fed, or sufficiently armed. Those, who, to- day, are encamped about the Capital, and who are represented to be destitute of necessary ar ticles of clothing or covering-the gallant 9th Regiment of Massachusetts ;-or those who are fighting hand to hand encounters with dssuuionists in the Border States.
 let us taket tie lesson Let us do as well as say. Let us employ ourselces as we'll as en- courage our neighbor. Let us have done with flags and rosettes, and hurrah-boys, unless we are conscious of effecting something acoraay of wearing ceckades, throwing out bunting, and hursahing for it. Let us have done with cheap patriotism, and do something rsally patriotic, or forever hold our peace!
