There is no doubt that an expedition

As yet we have had no news from Phillip
pL ave q dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette,
published elsewhere, which reports matters
quiet. But the otherwise persistent silence
Of the telegraph shows that the wires are
cut either at some point west of Grafton by
the rebels, or are in The exclusive control of
the military leaders, who cannot open them
to private dispatches. The imminent pros
Pect Of 8 6ght, fer the last few days, renders
q battle highly probable. The enemy were
sntrenehed at Laurel Hill, twelve miles be-
yond Phillippi, which ia itself, sixteen miles
Rom a telegraph station. This fact would
partially explain the silence which prevails.
We incline to the opinion that there has
been an engagement, and If not, that such
b the position Of the armies that there must
be one within a day OF two.

Richmond Itemg,

The Richmond Dispatch of the 18th inst.
says -"Al the rife works recently at Har
per's Ferry have been boxed up and removed
to Fayetteville, North Caroiins, where the
fabrication and alteration of arms will be
immediately commenced. A number Of
workmen arrived in this city yesterday from
Hsrpers Ferry, en- route for North Carolina.
A rumOr was extensively circulated yester-
day that the water in the city reservoir had
been poisoned. Such a report might do to
amuse gossipers for a leisure hour; but to
say the least, It was both mischievous and
ridiculous. Superintendent Davis was at
work there yesterday, and authorizes the
above statement. Strict guard is kept at all
times. By resolution Of the Virginia Con-
v%ention, passed yesterday BY unanimous vote,
that body proceeded On gaGsss last night at
eight o'clock to the Spotswood House, to pay
their respects to his Excellency, Jefferson
Davis, President of the Southern CSnfederacy.

One keuult 81 the war
This war has demonstrated that we are a
military people. The popular uprising would
no, have been so universal and widespread
II to our patriotism we bad not added the
military fervOr which only awaits the Occa-
sion to call il forth. Our soldiers now In
the Geld came from the counter, the desk,
the farm, the shop and the studio, and such
q collection Of trades and temperaments were
never gathered together as now. And yet,
while all have distinst and different tastes,
all fall In, as if by instinct, to the drill Of
the soldier. Opposite In everything else,
they are alike In their capacity to keep step
to martial music, to handle the musket and
to submit like regulars, to the necessary dis
eipline of the camp and Geld. And II the
Few engagements which have yet come on,
they have stood Gre like veterans. True,
enduring love OF country and a country's
honor, has brought these men int the ranks,
but in addition to that q love Of military has
made soldiers Of them. We have heretofore
been 50 sminently peaceful that soldier
was considered an adventurous being whC
dared dress up In r~eglmentals to be lsughe(
at BY his fellow clti5eos. Hencetorth, thi
order Of things wiz be changed. We shal
never be found % poorly prepared for wa
again. We shall have military schools, an
military tactics in our public schools. Mill
tary academies will flourish, and West Poin
will be be an institution in which the Who'll
o,untry viii take a deeper interest. Gu
standing army will be incrsaFe1' and wi
be looked to by ambitious young men, VII
are anxious Of promotion This war wi
develop the military genius which has hi
dormant. and will bring into n~oticeSmany
msritorous soldier whose talents have herr
tofore been confined to q select circle Of a.
quaintances. We shall be so prepared thI
when another war may arise, our officers wi
be at hand, well drilled themselves, an
ready to make efficient soldiers of raw r
eruits on the shortest possible notice.

How the Wilson's. Rows Reached wash

A0Ntne Whe0M-sc1 heAched Wash-
The Washington cOrrs spOndent of the
Chicago Tribune writes
The first Lieut. Colonel Of the Wisconsin
Regiment was telling me last evening Of
their passage through your city and the
Northwest. He seemed to lament some bad
ordering Of the Regiment as It displayed
Itself Ia your city; but be was loud in his
praise of the attentions they met there. But
the Ohio people were almost lavish OF their
kindnesses, and their 6rst ladies came oat
and sat up all night nearly, to treat them
with Zoe water, cake, boquets, and kisses -
The boys have not done smacking their own
lips yet Tor the memory Of the girls they
left behind them, :" and their deosculationP.-
Ny informant says all this was in strange
contrast With what met them 10 Baltimore.
There & rock wa thrown into one Of the
cars about three miles before reaching the
depot, hurting one nan pretty severely
After thy had marched nearly through the
city, where zine out Of ten he thinks, gave
them good cheer, there was an assault made
By ths plug uglies, hurrahing for JEFF. Davis
and Beauregard, Kissing and booting, and
h1aily q pistol shot was ventured, the ball
striking between two sections Of the compa-
MES. The Regiment could hardly be re-
strained from firing, as their guns had caps
on we're well loaded, and many were half
cooked. They also had prepared themselves
18th iorehsS with which 10 burn the city If
they once pitched in. Nothing but the want
Of the command and the presence Of q large
number Of ladies in the night procession,
prevented. They spaced the Sodom for the
sake Of the women and the righteous men
they believed were In It.
