Expedition to start Down the Mississippi.


The Northern papers have some statements IN
regard to the Mississippi fotilla which of in
ter, st. Fhe Chicago Tribune learns that Gener-
ais Grant and McClernsnd are now vigorously
at work at Cairo, getting ready for the impor-
tant expedition down the river. They are up
early aud late, and straining every nerve in for
warding the work of preparation. That paper
further says:
The expedition il rapidly organizing. 1t will
consist of fleet of eleven gunboats, mounting
over a hundred heavy guns, thirty eight floating
batteries OF 64-columbiad eacu, and tweEty-
eight river steamboats,. There are already one
hundred and sixty four pieces of cannon at Cairo,
none of which are less than 32-pounders, and
over hundred tons of ammunition have arrived,
and more are still arriving.
The military part of the expedition will, it is
believed, be under the genera. command of Ma
grand army at St. Louis, which will be Joined by
the columns Under General Grant, at Cairo, and
that of General Smith at Paducah.
The naval part of the expedition will be under
the command of Commodore Foote, who is now
superintending the construction and armament
of the new gunboats. There will probably be
between $4,000 and 100, 900 men in the expedi-
ton. We know nothing as 10 the exact time
when the expedition will start, nor as to its des-
tination-nor would it be proper to state these
facts; and We publish the above facts only be-
cause they are generally known to al the people
in and around Cairo, and no cOncealment is ap.
parently attempted to be made.

Too much could not be said in raise of the
Ladies of this place, who have done so much
for the comfort and relief of the soldiers. Their
noble e1ertions have been unremltting, and will
thus continue as long as there shall be soldier
needing their assistance. A lady of this place
invented glove pattern which has been the
means of furnishing thousands of soldiers with
warm gloves without any cost to the Confeder-
acy, as they have been made of the scraps left
in cutting over-coats and pants. The pattern
Of which We speak has been sent to different
parts of the State, and hundreds of ladies are
using ii in making gloves for the soldiers.

RocKBR1DGE ALUM SPRINGS, !
December 3rd, 1861. {

GENTLEMEN In reply to your kind appllca-
ton that would consent to be candidate for
the Senate of Virginia in this District, to I'LL
the unexpired term of our late Senator, James
G. Paxton, ESQ.,, 1 said to some of you person.
ally, on yesterday, that it by no means suited me
or my business to enter the public arena. You
urged me, with some importantly, to- consider
whether might not absent myself from home
during the two or three winter months to which
the sessions of the General Assembly are usual
ly limited, and were pleased to add that you
thought could contribute to the public interests
by consenting to serve this winter in the Senate.
For these friendly expressions, and for partial
an estimate of my humble abilities, am truly
grateful. 9r rIeg.z5
In reply, have only to say that, whilst cam
not be candidate for the Office in the sense of
soliciting votes for the same, yet, if the people
of Rockuridge, Bath and Highland choose to
elect me their Senator, without any act or solic-
itation of mine, shall deem it my duty to serve
them with whatever intelligence and energy and
fidelity can bring to their service. 3ssW It
The year 1862 is probably destined to wi ness
the close of this mighty struggle, Or at the least,
will 90 far to fix the future fortunes of this an
cient Commonwealth Of ours, always dear to ev-
cry one of her true and loyal sons, but now made
doubly dear to them by the perils that environ
them. The great work, therefore, to, be don e
this winter is to prepare to put such an army in
the field, with the first opening of Spring, as
shall be able, with the succour of the Almighty,
to drive out the ruthless invaderof our soil, and
thus aid in restoring once more to our istracted
country the Blessings of peace, and prosperity
