THE DESTRUCTION OF WASHING
TON CONTEMPLATED
WASHINGTON, August Is, 1861


I am informed, through more than one re-
liable source, that JEFFERSON DAVIS strongly
contemplateS the invasion of Washington, not
to hold the city, but to destroy it, He hesi-
tates not on inability to do it, but on the
loyalty of Maryland. Strenuous exertions are
in progress to secure change of sentiment in
favor of secession. That accomplished the
first movement of his army would be upon
the capital, with the desperate determination
to mete out to it the fate of Hampton.
