CINCINNATI, May 26, 1861.
To the Union Asn Of Western HTgiaia.
VIRoISIAEs; The General Government has
long enough endured the Vaccinations of a
few factious rebels IN yeAr midst. Armed
traitors have in vain endeayored TO deter
you from expressing your loyalty at the
polls; having Jailed in this infamous attempt
to deprive you of the exercise of your dearest
rights, they now seek to inaugurate reign
Of terror, and thus fcree you to yield to their
schemes, and submit to the yoke of the
trRitorous conspiracy, digni6ed BY the name
of Southern Confederacy. They are destroy
ing the property of citizens of your State,
and running your magnificent railways.-
The General Government has heretofore
carefully sbstained from sending troops
across the Ohio, or even from posting them
along its banks, although frequently urged by
many of your prominent citizens to do 90.
II determined to await the result of the late
election, desirous that no one might be able
to say that the slightest effort Lad been
made from this side to influence the free ex-
preston Of your opinion, elthOugh the many
agencies brought to bear upon you by the
rebels were well known. You have now
shown, under the most adverse circumstances,
that the great mass Of the people Of Western
Virginia are true and loyal to that benefcent
Government under which we and our fathers
have lived so long. As soon as the result Of
the election was known, the traitors COM
menced their work of destruction. The Gen.
eral Government can not close its ears to the
demand you have made for assistance. I
have ordered troops to cross the river
They come as your friends and brothers-as
enemies only TO the armed rebels who are
preying upon you. Your homes ysur
families, and your property are safe under
W. PaSsSSs.Ou. All your properly are Sale
under our protection. All your rights shall
be religiously respected.
Notwithstanding ali that has been said by
the traitors to induce you to believe that our
advent among you will be signalized by iu-
reference with your slaves, understand one
thing clearly-Dot only viii we abstain from
all such Interference, but we will, on the
contrary, with an iron hand, crush any at
tempt at insurrectiOn on their part. Now,
that we are in your midst call upon you
to fy to arms and support the General Gov
erument. Sever the connection that binds
you to traitors-proclaim to the world that
the faith and loyalty so long boasted by the
Old Dominion, are stin preserved in West
ern Virginia, and that you remain true to
the Stars aud Stripes. go. 800

The Prospect before Us.

We do not anticipate an unbroken series of
success in this war. Checks and reVerses
are inevitable and unavoidable in all wars.
and in all parties to wars, no matter how just
and holy their cause. In the war of the Re-
volution, just and righteous as it was, on our
part, we sustained a number of disasters,
several of which were in the South. The
disastrous defeat at Camden, the repulse at
Savannah, and the surrender at Charleston,
are historical facts; but these reverses and
disasters were scarcely recollected by the
American people or by ''the rest of man
kind" after the glorious conclusion of the
struggle at Yorktown, on Southern soil. In
the war of 1872, we suffered the disgrace of
HulIs surrender, and the capture of Wash
ington; but that war was terminated at New
Orleans in blaze of glory for the American
(Southern) arms. The Texan army was lit
orally destroyed on several fields in their war
of independence. After the fall of the Alamo
and of Goliad, the Texans retreated east TO
San Jacinto. considerable distance, the enc
my in pursuit. At San Jacinto they turned
upon the Mexicans, killing about one-half of
them and taking the other half prisoners
The battle of San JaeintO decided the con-
troversy between Mexico and Texas in favor
of the independence of the latter.
The Confederate States may experience
now and then q reverse in this war, but their
general course is onward-their battle cry is
victory.
The reverse in Northwestern Virginia is
ofsetted by the glorious victory just echiev-
ed by Mccullough and Jackson over the myr-
mydons of Lincoln in Missouri. The flag of
the Confederate States will ere long float in
triumph over the entire South, including ev-
cry loot Of Virginia sOil.-RichnaOnd Eng,

From the n. Y. Commercial Advertiser, July IL.
DEATH OF MRS. LONGFELLow.-We men,
toned yesterday the sad accident that had
befallen Professor Longfello3 and bis wife,
by the clothing of the latter taking fire. We
regret to learn that Mrs. LongfeIlow died
from her burns about noon yesterday. Pro-
fessor Longtellow will recover. Mrs. Long
fellow was the daughter of the Hon. Nathan
Appleton.
In abiding to this melancholy affair. the
Boston Traveller says
About five O'Clock in the afternoon Mrs l.,
was standing at a table in the library, max
ing wax seals for the amusement of her
daughters. She threw down lighted match
which struck her light clothing. setting it on
fire, and she was almost Immediately enve-
Hoped in flames.
Mr.. Longfellow, who was nea at hand, rushedr
to her assistance, and succeeded with much
difficulty, in consequence of the thin texture
of her clothing, in extinguishing the fire.
She was burned upon nearly every part of
her person except her face, but she succeed
ed in keeping the fire from that, and it is be-
lieved she did not inhale any of the flames.
Mr.. Longfellow's hands were badly burned.
but he received little injury besides that, aud
is not considered to be in any danger.
Both were kept under the Influence of ether
all last night by the direction of attending
physicians, Drs. Wyman, OF Cambridge, ii. ].
Bigelow, of Boston, and others
The three daughters of Mrs. Longfellow
were at home when the accident occurred;
her two sons were at Nahant, and they were
Immediately sent for.
The Transcript says -
Mrs. Longfellow was one of the most noble
and accomplished women in the country, of
great personal beauty and of dignifed pres
ence. She leaves an interesting family of
children to mourn the loss Of q mother whose
devotion to them was such as to secure their
ed. This terrible accident has thrown deep
gloom over many circles in Cambridge and
Boston, as the deceased was universal favor
tie with all classes.

The blades are made by SHARP & HAMILTON,
and the scabbards by ]. W. WILSON, College

An itineralt correspondent writes to the
Memphis appeal as follows, under date Of the
18th, near Nashville:
am informed by Mr.. Perkins, superinten-
dent of the Nashville and Decatur railroad,
that there has been an immense quantity of
wheat shipped to Memphis and Nashville over
this road, and still over seven eights of the
crop remains in the sheaf at present, there be-
ing no buyers, prices holding at from seventy
to eighty cents, and falling. The freightage
on the road l note, includes large quantities
of iron, and other articles which usually go
by river. At the present time, this route, and
by the Memphis and Charleston railroad, is
the only way by which shipments can be made,
within reasonable figures, to Memphis. met
with several Memphis merchants and wheat
SPECTATORS on the route, and they seem much
pleased with the promptness of the courteous
officials who manage this great outlet of Mid
die Tennessee. Ii surprised me not little to
find the road more of a tributary to Memphis
than to Nashville. Doubtless if the transit
was reduced some four hours, it would remain
the principal avenue for the traveller, at least
until the bridge is finished on the upper route.
The cotton and corn crop looks exceedingly
well, though rain is much needed over por-
ton of North Alabama. Along the Nashville
and Decatur route, there have been some
welcome rains lately, and the corn gives pro-
mise of an unusual yield. Such an excess of
cereals as has been raised this year in Ten
nessee was never known before, and surely
our hearts must respond their thanks of
gratitude that providence has so wisely
thwarted, at least the starving process, of
war, waged against US by the premier (the
MuraD of the federal crusade.
