The rumor was rife here to day that
Gen. Scott, had received new intelligence
relative to design on the capital by Sc

anxiety.
Judge Robinson, who was dispatched
southern States by Virginia to induce
them to keep the peace, telcgraphs that
if the Brookly be destined for Pensacola,
his mission will prove failure.
"The most intense excitement exists
in certain Congressional circles in conse-

;CoERcIoN.-JosLIY, of the Enterprise
has been for a long time "spoilng for q
fight" His editorials have tcemcd with
blood and thunder, birthstone, gunpowdcr
and hristling steel, and he manifests an
unsuitable longing for the time to come
when some Southron's
"Life blood warm and wet
Shall dim the glistening bayonet"
His Imagination seems to dwell with
delight upon scenes Of blood and carnage,
and to such all extent has this morbid
feeling taken possession Of him that at
times hc appears to lose all control over
himself. While under the Influence OF
one Of these "spells," few days since,
he rushed frantically into the street, and
furiously attacked small boy, inaicting
several severe wounds with the toe of his
boot upon that portion Of the youngstcr's
carcass where only mothers privileged
chastisement should be applied. After
such on exhibition Of valor, no doubts
can be entertained that JosLIN is an as
pirant for "the post of honor" among the
Northern Chivalry.

General IfarneY.

The New Yrok Times Of late date has
the following paragraph:
" Gen Harvey. it IS reported, has been
released from arrest by order of Gen Lee,
Commander of the Virginia forces If all
that is limited against him is true, General
Lee might have KEEP, him, aud welcome. -
Among other things, it is limited he procu
red his own arrest at Harpers Ferry"
AS Geul Harvey is a Southern man by
birth, and we have no reason to suspect hin,
of treason to the land of his nativity, we
shall not be surprised if the honorable pur-
pose imputed in the dshonorable fling of
this newspaper be not realized by the
event
The following from the National Repub-
licau, the Washington organ of Old Abe,
gives confirmation to the above.
" General Harvey is said to epor: that
be saw nothing in Virginia. indicating an
attack on Washington. Last winter he
made an official report that there was no
famine in Kansas, and that the statements
to that effect were utterly false The ~
NOR that General Harvey is to be intrusted
with military command here. ie we believe
without the slight st foundation. He is
not to be trusted in such times as these"

Corn and wheat

Some Of our contemporaries are exceed
ingiy nervous relative to the corn crop. and
advise extensive planting We are entire
ly Ignorant Of the source oftheir apprehen
sion. The Cotton States this year, are de-
voting mach of their land heretofore used
for Cotton, to raising corn. expectation of
all cereals is prohibited from Virginia. and
to our mind. the prospect is, that we shall
have more than an abundance of corn and
wheat (should the season prove favorable, }
in Virginia and the South, even should the
war continue. Flour, after harvest, cam
not be over from S 4 to S., and corn. after
October, must be much lower than at pre-
sent.
