The SPIRIT OF OUR PEoPLE.-A correspondent
Of the Lexington Gazette, writing from Strasbnrg
June IL, announces The occupation OF Romuey by
the Federasts, and says:
~ his morning as the news began to circulate
among the gentry of the country, an excitement
produced the like Of which this region has
not witnessed snce the wild days Of the Revolution
and the old French war. Old men and young men
OF almost every standing, rushed to their houses,
took down their rifles and guns, slung their shot
peaches and powder horns, saddled their horses,
and put right off for Winchester, almost without
word of adicu to their families. In few hours
the road from this place to Newtown, between
this and Winchester lined with troops, baggage
wagons, and our country militia, armed with any
kind of weapon, some on horseback and some on
foot all fred with solemn and firm resolve to
whip the dastardly Yankees back from Virginia
soil, die in the effort to do so. One man, DO
teph MIller,) an old man with grandchildren, left
his work in his field, leaving his coat hanging on
the fence, rushed home, obtained his rifle, &C.,
mounted his horse, and put off in his shirt
sleeves. | heard Of him pushing through New
town without coat or collar, just as he left his
house, Lincoln might we'll try to turn back
the waters of niagara as to attempt to conquer
such a population this Valley contains.
