Grandmother Virginia and Her vapors.
A local article in the Richmond Examiner
gives the particulars of the arrest of young
man named Charles ]. Gather, in that city,
and his examination on a charge of treason,
or something of the kind. His trunk was
Iansacked, of course-for TO finger other
peoples private property appears to have
become ruling passion in the land that
once bred Washingtons, and Jeffersons, and
Pinckneys, and Hearys, and now breeds
negroes-and several envelopes bearing the
franks of Mr.. Seward and Mr.. Chase, were
discovered, together with a journal, one of
the entries of which set forth that the writer
was tired of the South and its niggers, and
intended to seek residence elsewhere.
The Governor, after mature consideration,
pronounced these documents decidedly in
cendiary; but as the entry in the journal
was Of date previous to the passage of the
Virginia Secession Ordinance, he had grave
doubts whether it brought the offender
within the contemplation of the law to de-
fine and punish the crime of treason against
the Commonwealth; and, after severe ad-
monition, the party was let go, with the ad-
vice to make himself scarce as soon as con-
venient-of which he doubtless availed him
self, in the most expeditions manner.
Whether the obnoxious documents were
burned by the hapgman to prevent their do
ing further mischief and putting the peace,
safety and independence of Virginia and the
Confederacy in further jeopardy, does not
appear; but perhaps no event since the pre-.
datory excursion of:thst Inflated COW whose
exploits sent such a thrill of terror through
the legions of Governor Wise, at Harper's
Ferry, has done so much to unsettle the
nerves of Virginia statesmen, heroes and
patriots, as two or three superannuated en-
velopes, and the accompanying diary.

An Ihside View Of Fort Pickens-Letter
from nm Officer,

IFOm hu OmCer.
The following letter, dated Port Pickens,
Fla, April Is, 1861, was received by q gen.
tleman in New York City from an officer in
that Fort:
My DEAR -: You now know where we
were going when we left New York. We
encountered a fearful storm on Monday,
which continued until Wednesday night,
We reached Key West on Saturday, reached
Tortugas on Sunday, and sailed that night
for Pensacola. just before reaching here
the cat jumped out of the bag. We had had
mach fun trying 20 worm some thing out of
Colonel Brown-thought he wouldn't get
sea sick for fear of letting some thing out, and
every body had some stock-some Cuba,
some Domingo, some Texas, and some Ship
Island. We got here Tuesday evening, Just
before dark. The plan was for the war
steamer Poschattan 10 go straight in when
she arrived-go beyond the reach of the
guns of Forts McRae and Barrancas and
come to anchor. Under cover of her guns
we could land men and stores.
But we got here first, fortunately. Soon
after dark, after our arrival, unusual activity
was observed on the other side, and they
concluded that Fort Pickens was to be at
tackled, and they sent up their two rockets
as a signal tor the feet to come to their aid,
Great anxiety las felt for fear they should
attack and thus prevent our landing. as the
Po0hattGH had not arrived and gotten inside.
The men were supplied with ammunition,
one days rations, and as many as could be
carried went ashore in the navy boats, ready
to fight their way up, and all expecting it, of
course. The artillery were to land after the
infantry, so we had to wait, and we finally
got off about day ybreak. We rowed up under
the guns of Fort McRae, and landed on the
beach in fine range, and expected their shot
and shells to be poured down upon US. But
they were not ready, for some cause un-
known to us. The next day they landed
nearly all the horses, and have now all on
shore, with the batteries. Great activity is
manifested on the other shore.
But think they will not attack us for
some time, and perhaps not at all. most
certainly pray that civil war may be
avoided, but fear it can not. They have not
dared attack the fort even when Slemmer
had only eighty men. Now we will soon
have about one thousand, and General Bragg
will be a long time in getting inside these
walls. Every thing is on a wal. footing, and
when we get a few more eight. inch Colum-
biads mounted we can she'll them out ol
every place around US. They offered $45 per
month to the soldiers in Texas to join the
Confederate army, and offered the officers
increased rank and pay. They passed law
absolving any one from his oath of alle-
glance if he would join their army-but
neither soldier nor officer would go. They
have offered large sums TO cause treachery in
Slemmer's company. But wen fax them
out yet.

The st. Louis Democrat sums up "what
the Secessionists have done thus far" in the
following briefbut comprehensive manner:
abolished the Fourth of July; given up
the Stars and Stripes; defrauded Northern
creditors; stolen some millions of the ma
tional treasure; fred into an unarmed
steamer established a mock Constitution,
which they dare not submit to the people;
captured hall, starved fortress; lowered the
price of niggers fifty per cent; and made
themselves a by-word and Kissing
throughout the civilized world"
