Tbs correspondent OF the Cincinnati Com
mercial, who accompanied the expedition to
Accomac county, on the eastern shore ofVir-
ginia, gives this rather uucomplimentsry
sketch of the inhabitants:
The inhabitants of the Peninsular possess,
in an uncommon degree, that foolish, bigot-
ed senseless, exasperating pride which, time
out Of mind, hrs been the distinguished char
acteristic of the Virginian. They hondly hug
the delusiOn that their miserable God-forsa-
ken neck Of barren sand is a part of ''the
great State Of Virgins" and, in their eyes,
Italy, nor Utopia, nor the Garden OF Eden
are fairer and more desirable as places of res
idence. They fancy that because a few lep-
rous Africsns are scattered here and there
through the land, that tkey have "institu-
tions' for which they must bleed and die.
They cherish even their ignorance and
poverty as q portion Of Virginia character
They use corn husk collars, wooden truck
wheels, cut their lumber with a whip saw,
worked their apologies for oxen in shafts,
with 8 bit in the mouth, and reckon their
children as so many ffhead, as if they were
cattle, and yet look with pity and contempt
on all who, through misfortune, carelessness
or otherwise, happened to be born ont of Vir-
ginia. The educated class-the F. F. VS. of
the Peninsula-are, If possible more sense

Think only Of the common baekneyed ex-
pre5sions which pass so lightly between the
lips, when speaking of greft battle. We
talk exultingly, and with certain FIRE, of ga

yet very few will think of the hideous par

did charge" is headlong rush of men on
strong horses, urged to their fullest speed.

Olent confusion. We may strengthen the
tones Of the picture by setting this horseman
at full eallop, and joining to him q company

theunhappy pedestrain2 When the ''splen-
did charge has done its work and bessed by,
there will be found a sight very much like
the scene of q frightful railroad accident.
There will be found the full complement OF
backs broken in two, or arms wholly drawn
of, or men impaled upon their own bayonets,

sliced open like apples, or other heads crush

that there is 8 series of violent death scenes

tending to the machine shop of Cameron &
Co. Before midnight the FIRE had assumed
an appalling magnitude, and Meeting
street, from Market to Queen, was mass
of fame.
As tenement after tenement Was enTel-
oped in flames, the pGnie became sWful, and
thousands Of families evacuated their
houses and filed the streets.
The buildings in the lower part Of the
city, where the FIRE broke out, were princi-
pRlly Of wood and extremely inhsmmsble,
which accounts for the remarkably rapid
progress Of the FIRE. At midnight the Cir
Oulsr Church and Institute Hsn were burn
ing, and the proximity Of TIE flames to the
Charleston Hotel and the Mills House
caused them to be evacuated by their In
mates. At one o'clock the IRE tended
more southRaril towards the corner
Of Archdals and Queen lNtreets, 70
to the rear Of the Charleston Hotel 70 the end
Of Home street. Crossing Market street the
fire spread down East Bay to Gu. pberland
street, and across to the Mills House, iuciud'
ing in its destruction the Circular ,ghurchi
Institute Hall, and the Charleston h VteL.-
All the buildings on King street, from Clit-
ford nearly to Broad were destroyed b e1one
o'clock. ID
General Ripley who superintendent ths
movements of the tro0ps who arrived at tAe
scene at about this time, ordered seye. "a
buildings on the route of the confRgratiol
to be blown up. After some delay the order
was executed, but not before the Theatre,
Lloyd's coach factory, opposite the Express
Office, the old executive building and all the
houses from this point TO Queen street had
caught FIRE and were destroyed.
At about O'Clock the wind changed the
direction Of the flames toward Broad street
soon after st. Andrews Hall took fire, and
subsequently, the cathedral, the spire OF
which falling shortly after o'clock.
The FIRE made clear sweep through the
city, making its track from East Bay to King
street.

The following, from the report Of Tie pro
ossdingB in the Kentucky Legislature,
throws some doubt upon the abolition Of
slavery commencing in that State:
In the House, Saturday, Representative
Turner called the Unionists' attention to
some Newspaper statement that Kentucky
was about to abolish slavery, and offered
the following resolution:
eResolved, That this General Assembly
is astounded ct the reports in circulation
in the newspapers, that the Kentucky Leg
islaturo eontemplates abolishing slavery.
such thought has not entered the mind
Of single member Of this Legislature.-
Kentucky is attached TO the institution of
slavery, and firmly resolved to stand by IL
and defend It"
He demanded an immediate vote, but
hnally consented 10 postpone the matter
till Monday, on condition that the Journal
should show il had only been postponed
because Of the slim House, and that on
Menday, with q full House, il might 20
through with unanimous vote. The Sc
oessiOnists Immediately offered resolution
that Kentucky will resist under any cir
Hrming slaves.
