TIE wAH IN YInGINIA.

From the Richmond Dipltth, 1871
Passengers by the Central train yesterday
report some interesting proceedings in Patter-
sons camp at Martinsburg. Some four thou.
sand PennsylyaBians, who enlisted for three
months, made up their minds to leave and 90
home. One account says objection was made
and a fight took place, IN which 2 considera-
bic number Of useless lives were lost. We
cannot vouch for the accuracy Of the last men,
toned report, but have no doubt that the three
months men determined ID leave the State.
From Western and Northwestern Virginia
the accounts are vague. A dispatch from
Cincinnati makes it appear that o.. J. Wise, Of
the Blues, hal captured three companies of
federalists. It is probable that an engage
ment has taken place in the neighborhood of
Laurel Hill, between Gen. Garnetts Confed-
crate forces and McCIelland's command, since
the Cincinnati kilograms inform US that they
were approaching each other at last accounts.
We have nothing further in regard to the re-
ported engagement Of tie It'll If the federal
lists we're defeated on that day, as has been
stated, we should hardly receive any account
of it from the North.
In consequence Of Gen. Scotps order for the
suppression of Geographic dispatches, we have
nothing from the northern associated press
relative to the army movements on the Po-
tomac.
Col. Thomas, the intrepid Marylander, has
been indicted for treason and piracy.
The captured Hessiaus are hard at work on
our Notifications at Winchester.

The HaInesviIIs affair.

The southern journals say a whole company
OF the Pennsylvania fifteenth regiment was
captured by the secession cavalry on the dav
Patterson entered Hainesvile. The account,
as given in q letter to the Baltimore Exchange,
says:
The mos. brilliant, daring and dashing ex-
plot OF the day was the capturing of between
forty and fifty federal prisoners by a body Of
h0rsemen. After the army bad crossed the
river at Williamsport, Gen. Ncgley's brigade
divergec from the main read on the road lead
ing to Hedgesville. Company A, of the ff-
teenth Pennsylvania regiment, were sent in
advance of the main body as scouts It con-
sisted Of sixty-thTee men. At the residence Of
VIM. McGeary, Esq, a farmer, they called A
halt, snd hailing one Of the daughters, inquired
for her father, whom they said they had an ac-
count to settle with, as he hsd been feeding
and harboring secession troops.
The young lady said she did not know where
her father was, when twelve Of the party
started out to hunt him up. Several Of the re-
naming troops now grossly insulted the young
lady, and said to her il she did not reveal to
them where her father was they would put her
to death, and pointed their baVonets at her
heart. At this stage Of the proceedings a
body Of twenty. five horsemen gailoped M, IN
der Captain Robert Swan. They were on the
point Of being fred upon, when Capt. Swan
suOuttut my TOO, men, lOn1t HTe on your
friends! D0wn with your muskets." Upon
which they, thinking it was some Of their own
troops, cbeyed the order. As quick as thought,
Swans men were off Of their horses, and with
drawn swords and pistols, demanded their sur
render, which they did without hesitation.
They then disarmed them, and taking the
straps of Their canteens, tied their hands be-
hind their backs, and in this manner marched
them off through MsrtinsbuTg to Winchester.
The men were ordered to march at a "dsuble
quick" which they complained they could not
DO, as they were much wearied; but Captain
Swans orders were imperative, and forward
they were pushed with all possible dispatch.
Ne captain Of the'coupany captured was in
town this evening, appearing much depressed
about the matter; the remaining twelve men
refusing 70 march under him, blaming him for
his fortunes. Swans party each took two
muskets in front Of them on their horses, and
made these men throw away their haversacks,
etc. This was a daring feat, and was per-
formed by a Marylander and q citizen Of
Washington county.
Another feat, and one more humorous, was
that Of a slave of Mr.. McGeaTy, who captur-
ed a lieutshane OF the sam company, disarm.
ed him.and d~ivesting him Of his Tegimentals,
sword and pistol, donped them himself anC

OUR NAVY.

We have now the beginning Of a navy,
which, small as il is, is not much beneath the
dimensions Of the old continental, which, IN
der Paul Jones, TruXten, Human and others,
covered the infant flag of America with glory.
We have, in the first place, officers VINO were
the very flower Of the old federal navy, ac-
cOmplished seamen, and heightened and chival-
rous gentlemen. If we have not at present
many ships, vi have the most unlimited ma
terials for building and for aTming and equip
ping vessels Of var. Magnificent forests of
live oak abound in BE southern States; tar,
hemp, pine, and every article of naval stores
can be found in unlimited abundance in the
Southern Confederacy, and in no other part Of
the old Union. We can easily command sea-
men enough for any present exigsncy, and
there can be no better school for their train
ing than our privatsersmen, which VIII soon be
sfoat on every wave. In the Norfolk navy
yard, 80 fortunately wrested from federal
hands, we have the largest and best navy yard
on the continent. In this connection we may
add that the highest credit is due TO the GAL
liant officers OF our navy, lot only for the eff
cient services they have rendered at the yard,
but at the various land batteries, where their
experience, skill and courage have Teen beyond
ell praise.-Richmond Dispatch. Ez.aA

We publish elsewhers, this merning, a let
ter from Gov. HAMS to S. R. CockHILL, Esq ,
Of this city, relative to his position in the GU
bernatorial contest now before the people Of
Tennessee. The letter, as viii be noticed,
gives the most positive assurance that if the
people Of The State see proper to again assign
him the duties Of the gOvernorship, be "wiT
not shrink from an honest effort to perform
them fully and in coed faith" One Of the
strongest arguments upon which the support
srs Of Col. Polk have thus far based their
opposition to Gov. HARRIS, is efectually res
cued from them in the assurance above furn-
ished. They have pertinaciously, and without
lust reason, asserted that the political friends
Of the present incumbent were running him
without any authoritative intimstion that be
would accept the position if rendered bin BY
the s0frages Of a majority Of the people and
have even gone still farther in trying to pro-
duee the impression that be will be an sspirani
for other official preferment, despite the iBev.
table success that awaits bis candidacy in The
approaching election. We trust that a proper
degree Of consideration will be given the con.
tents Of this Gin our mind) very important
document.

Attorney-Genera Of Tennessee.
East Tennessee and the Governor
ship.

Brownlow, it seems, advocates the running
Of a third candidate by the traitors in the race
for governor, who shall be pledged to the poll
cy Of forming a new State for that section.
He says:
The election of governor affords still another
issue to test the sentiments of our people. How
they viii meet it, we cannot say, and we as
sumo to speak for ourselves alone. As a sep
arate State, we shall need a governor, and we
suggest to the union men Of East Tennessee,
that they adopt a candidate OF their own, with
a view to bis occupying that position. Let he
people in the other portions Of the State elect
the man Of their choice, without interference
from US. Those whom we were accustomed to
regard as our friends, those whom we have
followed through evil report and good report.
deserted US in the very hour Of trial, and
brought rs to shame before our common enc
mics, by rushing into secession; and now, if
they shall get either more or less than they
have bargained for, they needfeel under no OBJ
legations to US, who, being $50 far remote fl ON
the sozrces of information,o have chosen to
remain true to our principles, and faithful to
the government to which we acknowledged and
they professed allegiance.

The REACTION IN THE NoRTH.-On the 22d
Of June, a public meeting was held in Litch-
field county, Pennsylvania, at which strong
peace resolutions were passed. The fellow
ing is the concluding resolution
ResolUsd, That We are opposed to the pres
ent war policy; that we sincerely believe the
effect will be to drive TIE remaining slave States
from the Union, exasperate the whole South
consolidate their cOnfederacy, bankrupt the
North, and excite such animosity between the
two sections that a reconstruction of the Union
will be impossible. As the Union was made
in peace, it should be preserved in peace, and
never can be by force Of arms. We believe
and hold that the great anchor OF our prosper
Gus nation is a fair distribution Of equal JUS
tice and good will to all sections.

The New York Times says that the current
BOT foreign immigration continues ts flow to
that pQ6t in full volume, unchecked. so far,
either hT.the political connections or BY the
commgfeTal distractions which are producing
ia the North such serious disasters. During
The half year just closed the immigration from
Europe has been nearly as great as it was for
the corresponding period Of last year, and con-
siderably greater than for the same months
Of the two years preceding last. The whole
number Of immigrants landed at Castle Gar
Den from tse beginning Of the year to the
close Of last month, amounts to 1857, as
against &c, 1888 for The fret six months Of last
year-beiRg a diminution Of only 575I. An
unusually large number Of emigTants are said
to be on their way from German and northern
European ports. A somewhat larger ratio Of
the emigration thus far, this year, is from Ger
many, than was the case last year, and a con-
sideTably smaller proportion from Ireland.
According TO the Times, some Of them, who
have served in the militia Of their native
States, declare that they have come 20 Amer
lea to fight for freedom. If they don't fight
for it more successfully in America than they
have in Europe, they might save themselves
