GOV. LETCHER.

Perhaps no man in civilized age ever
Governor Of Virginia. He sinks infinitely
below Gov Pickens and the other secession
birds in the traitors nest. One has bold
ness and somrthin. that in nalf civilized
age iSht pass for manliness. The other is
devoid of both. The mother Of Presidents
has produced ut last bastard Letcher is
an illegitimate son of the State that gave
birth to Washington. He ought to be dis
owned and disinherited by every true Vir-
ginan. BY his attitude rs a traitor to his
country, his asowed sympathy with the
wretches who without cause are plotting
destruction to the best government on
| esrth, his refusa! in the face of the Con-
stitution he had sworn to support to allow
the Federal troops to march through Vir-
ginia TO suppress domestic insurrection,
bands under the traitor and knavc jeff Da-
Wis. to attempt the seizure of the National
| Capital, he has compelled the Government
to go to millions of expense for the defense
of Washington. And now that it is in a
posture to defend itself against the gangs
of Confederate thieves, Letcher, Governor of
the Old Dominion-that figured glorions-
ly in the Revolution, that gave birth to
patriots without nlmber who shed their
blood without stint to establish the nation
the Confederate scounGrels are seeking to
destroy-Governor Letcher, with a cbval-
ry becoming Jack Falstaff or Sancho Pam
"a, declaring his State out of the Uuion
without authority, is now playing the part
of a clown for the world to laugh at, by
solemnly declaring the rebels shall not
march through the State Of which he is the
high toned chivalric. Governor and litter
ally chaw up and devour the legions under
General Scott collected TO defend the Cap
ital of the country Mighty Governor !
Most puissant State with such a leader !!
Does he suppose that by his windy procla-
nations BE can befool the Administration at
Washington? Would any man in his sober
senses rely on the filth of q Governor who
is guilty of perjury of the blackest dye :?
His assertions that Virginia will not allow
the hordes of fanatics and scoundrels ar
raved against the Constitution and laws to
march against Washington, what are they
worth \ man who would prove treach-
erous to his country, violate his oath and
disgrace his position by refusing to con-
form to his obligations to the Government,
only wants n pretext, however timsey, to
revoke his proclamatons and pledges, at n
moments warning. A barefaced hypocrite
who can unblushingly call the efforts of
the President to enforce the laws he has
taken an oath to sustain, an aggressive war
upon State rights, will as easily coastrue
the wearing of red vest, white pants and
blue coat by the President as an insult to
the majesty of Virginia. Gov. Letcher is
not to be trusted, and the Administration
has done we'll to inform him positively that
the march of troops through Virginia from
the South towards the National Capital
will be sufficient cause to occupy Rich
mond and Norfolk, and other Virginia ter
ritory with Federal troops.
