The FEELING IN VIRGINIA. PITCHED
BArrLE.-The Washington correspondent of
the Cincinnati Enquirer telegraphs on the LIST
inst, as follows
Several skirmishes have occurred last night
and to-day near Fairfax Courthouse. The
Federal troops passed through the village
twice, and lost seven men and several woun-
ded. They were fred upon from the houses.
Women in some cases were discovered load
ing the guns for the men, and urging them
on. 1t is fatal mistake to suppose that
there is a party in Eastern Virginia that will
support the Government. On the contrary,
the people evince the most bitter and indy
ing hatred toward the North, who, they be-
lieve, are making war upon them simply up
on the slavery cause.
Jefferson Davis arrived at Richmond on
Wednesday. He was received with tumultu-
Gus demonstrations of joy. 1t is said that he
is ready TO make ov artures to President Lin
coin to decide the contest by pitched battle,
allowing the North to have one-tenth more
men than the South. He desires this, il is al
legged, on the score of humanity.

The Acqui. creek Fixht.

The Washington correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. in his dispatch Of the LIST,
SAYS there was considerable loss on both
Sides In the Acquia Creek fight, and that the
steamers Anacoaa and Freedom were disabled
and compelled to retire. The Pasonee was
sent to their assistance, but what part she
played is not known. 1t was intended to
land the troops on her somewhere near the
battery and attack it by land. The object
in attacking the battery is to remove it as an
obstruction to the sending of troops direct to
Richmond. We presume the correspondent
of the Enquirer states the truth relative to the
loss on the Federal side but he is mistaken
as to there being any considerable loss on the
Southern side.
The correspondent of the Cincinnati Gdzstte
gives the following account of the fight:
WASHINGTON, June 2.
The official dispatches received to-day give
details of a second engagement yesterday al
Acquia Creek.
During the previous night the rified cannon
which had been used on Friday on the Hill
with effect, were removed during that night
to the previously silent batteries on the shore,
which were rebuilt, and then opened yester-
day on the three gunDoas- Inc iaiter re-
turned the fire vigorously, burning the depot
buildings and making havoc In the batteries
by shells
The dead and wounded could be seen car
ried off as the vessel was not half mile from
the shore. The rifled battery was silenced,
except one gun. The gunboats were splIntered
badly. Several shots went clear through the
Anacosta, Freedom and Pawnee. The former
was splintered into kidding wood. None
were hurt on the vessels worth mentioning.
Lieut.. Cast of the Freeborn was knocked INTO
the river by the wind caused by swift Dali
passing near.
Additional vessels go down the river to-
night. and in the morning the attack will be
renewed. The rebels meanwhile are rebuild
ing the batteries.
IL is understood that an advance OF three
or four thousand troops will be made on Fair
fax tonight.

Riflemen and Cavalry Wanted.

1T will be seen, on reference to the General
Order. in another column, that Gen. AMBER
SON wishes, for the State service, two thousand
rifemen, armed with the Tennessee Rifle, for
which the Minnie ball will be furnished by the
State. He also wishes five companies of Cav
airy, each private to be armed with strong
double-barreled shot gun, which he will pro-
vide for himself but which the State will pay
for. Each man to furnish his own horse.
Experiments recently made by the Military
and Financial Board demonstrate that the
Tennessee rife, with the Minnie ball, is most
effective weapon at long distances, more ac-
curate and destructive than the riled musket.
The shot gun in the hands of mounted men,
is more serviceable than the carbine. We
have no doubt the whole number of rifiemen
and cavalry desired by Gen. ANDERSON will
be obtained in very short time. They are
favorite branches of service with Tennes-
scans, and the question for the General to de-
eide will be which to choose out of the great
number offered. There will be lively times
with the boys until these corps are filed.

SEPARATION.

Hon. John Bell.

This distinguished gentleman left Nash
Vile last Saturday for East Tennessee, with a
view to exert his great influence to create a
better state of feeling there. He spoke at
Knoxville yesterday, as we learn from dis
patch which has been received in this city,
some troops from Louisiana on their way to
Virginia being present, and he took occasion
to urge them to war to the death upon the
invaders of Virginia, and declared that five
millions OF men could not conquer the South.
We trust that Mr.. BELLS labors in East Ten
nessee may be productive of great good.

TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES.

RECOMMENDATIONS.
Numerous appeals have been made to me by
pious and patriotic associations and citizens, in
view of the present distracted and dangerous con-
dition of our country, to recommend that day be
set apart for humiliation, fasting and PRAYER
throughout the Union. In compliance with their
request, and my own sense of duty, | designate
Friday, the 4th day Of January 1861,
for this purpose, and recommend that the people
assemble on that day, according to their several
forms of worship, to keep it as a solemn Fast.
The Union of the States is at the present mo-
ment threatened with alarming and immediate dan
ger-panic and distress of a fearful character pre-.
vail throughout the land-our aboring population
are without employment, and consequently de-
prived of the means of earning their bread-indeed,
hope seems to have deserted the minds of men. All
classes are in state of confusion and dismay. and
the wsest counsels of our best and purest men are
wholly disregarded.
In this, the hour of our calamity and peril, to
whom shall we resort for relief but to the God of
Fathers? His Omnipotent Arm only can save us
from the awful effects of our own crimes and fol-
lies-our own ingratitude and guilt towards our
Heavenly Father.
Let us, then, with deep contrition end penitent
sorrow, unite in humbling ourselves before the
Most High, in confessing individual and nation
al sins, and in acknowledging the justice of our pun
ishment. Let impIore Him to remove from our
hearts that false pride of opinion which would i'm
pei us to persevere in wrong for the sake of con-
sistency, rather than yield just submission to the
unforeseen exigencies by which we are now sur
rounded. Let US, with deep reverence, beseech
him, to restore the friendship and good will which
prevailed, in former days, among the people of the
several States; and, above all, to save us from the
horrors OF civil war and "blood-guiltness Let
our fervent prayers ascend to His Throne, that He
would not desert US in this hour of extreme peril
but remember us He did our fathers in the dark
est days of the Revolution, and preserve our Con-
stitution and our Union, the work of their hands,
for ages yet to come. An Omnipotent Providence
may overrule existing evils for permanent good.
lie can make the wrath of man to praise him, and
the remainder of wrath He can restrain. Let me
invoke every individual, in whatever sphere of life
he may be placed, to feel personal responsibility
to God and his country for keeping this day holy,
and for contributing all in his power to remove our
actual and impending calamities.

A MESSAGE FROM THE SEA.-Ths beautiful piece
as produced at the Holiday Street Theatre is one
of the finest melodramas that has ever been con-
structed from Dickens peculiar and popular
carols" The characters are original and
striking, the incidents are stirring, and
suited to the various roles of the drama
and the plot is neatly woven, enchanting the
mind of the spectator from the first scene until the
aenounent The Captain Jorgan, of the story is
quaker sea-captain and the part is sustained
to great advantage by Mr.. Scallan, who, though
but short period in Baltimore, has become an i'm.
mense favorite with the patrons of the theatre.
Miss Gray is the Kitty of the piece. She has but
few lines which she delivers with excellent dra-
matte taste and with her usual grace of
action. The Seuen Daughters is also given in
connection with the Christmas drama. 1t will be
performed on tomorrow Saturday afternoon for

There is a recommendation STRONGLY i

Ihere is a recommendation, strongly in accord
ance with the purpose of to-days observances,
which we beg to make to our fellow citizens of all
opinions and which we hope will be received in
the spirit in which it is offered In the multitude
of conflicting views and feelings which the crisis
of the country has developed-and which agitate
our own community most painfully, as every man
OF observation must discover in his daily walks
1t certainly becomes no man or set of men, TO as
sumo, for himself themselves, the exclusive pos
session of intelligence, purity or patriotism. The
interests of all of US are one and the same. and
there is no motive appealing TO the heart or iudg-
ment of any one of US, which does not
speak as loudly and as earnestly to the
mind and heart of his neighbor With
the same common end to serve there must
and there will always be differences among men,
equally honest and intelligent, as to the most eff
fectual method of serving it; and any one who
supposes that those who differ from him are, by
reason of that difference, knaves or fools, may per-
maps be nearer than he thinks TO defining his own
position IN at least one of these unenviable classi
cations. Those whose own purposes are most m
right, and whose judgments are most enlightened
are the most apt o concede something of the same
sort to those who chance to disagree with them.
We are moved to these observations by the tone
and temper of some of our citizens, who, them
selves believing that the preservation of the Union
is involved SO far as Maryland is concerned, in
preventing the convocation of the Legislature, are
forward and violent in denouncing, as enemies of
the Union, those whose judgments counsel them
the contrary. 1t does not seem to occur to those
gentlemen that it is possible for them to be wreng
anu .neir opponents TO be right, or even that it is
posslpie Tor men TO be wrong and honest, as well
as TO pe honest and right. Now we respectfully
submit that such frame of mind as this indicates,
is very far from being either enlightened or
liberal, much less charitable or just. 1t is
within the scope of possibility that the Union
may be preserved, by moving, as we'll as bv
standing still. We of Maryland NAV nos
sibly find, when we shall lie down in the
bed which others have made for us, that we
would have lain easier If we had made our own.
But whether this shall be SO or not, we do insist
