Inc Abohhor Iists are becoming less and less
sangunary as the difficulties OF the situation thioken
around thepI At the commencement of the war
the blood .thirstiness they manifested would have
sckehed the stomach of an East India Sepoy or
q Gomanche Indian. They were as teroclous as
wolves, as savage as hyenas, and as remorseless
as pirates. They declared war OF suoJugatlon,
devastation, confiscation and emancipation; and
after they had hung shot and putin chains or made
to labor on the public works all Southerners who
had taken up arms in defence Of their liberties and
| fresides even the children and wives and other
relatives of the non-eombatants were to be so I'M
poyerished that the pangs of hunger should be
in their pinched cheeks and dire poverty in the
rags that covered their persons? This was the
unutterably horrid programme with which the Lin
coin Abolitionists started out-a programme op-
posed to every rule of civilized warfare-and that
they would have prosecuted it ruthlessly to the
bitter end, if it had been in their power there is
abundant reason to believe. No thanks to them
for the difference in the sentiments they now ex-
press.

INVASION OF VIRGINIA By 0UIoANs.-We have
already stated that many soldiers from Ohio have
invaded the State of Virginia, both by way of the
Baltimore Railroad aud the valley of the Kan9wha
This last horde, at the last accounts had only oc-
cupied Point Pleasant. The others have come as
far as Romney, in Hampshire, killing cur people,
plundering, and laying waste the country.
OF all the people on this. Continent, those who
had the least pretext or apology for such pro
ceediug are those Of the State OF Ohio. They are
indebted to Virginia for the land on which and by
which they live. This State with her own men
and her own money, conquered that whole region
from the Indians and the British, and gare it to the
Union. The people who have proited by this
gift--who have multiplied and hourished there-are
they who show their gratitude by numbering the
people and ravaging the land of their benetactor:
1t is not pretended that they have ever received
injury at the hands of Virginia: they come, with
out provocation, volunteers to slaughter, or as
hired mercenares of the Yankee despot at Wash
ington, Outrage and aggression, under such cir
cumstances, must kindle flame of Indignation in
every Virginia heart which nothing should quench
but the blood of the invaders. No quarter, but in
slant death, should be the portion of every one of
these ungrateful freebooters who pOllute the soil
of Virginia. [Rchmond Wing.

Oh. RUSSELL, OF THE LONDON TnIEs.-The tele
graph, classifying as it has usually done since it has
been arbitradvely controlled by the Abolition au
thorities in the North advised that Mr.. Russell
the celebrated London letter-writer, had made {
speech on his arrival at Cairo, in which he con
trasted the Northern forces with those he had see1
in the South, in o manner very complimentary tt
The former. This is all CANNON, as the following
from the abolition correspondent of the St. Lou
Democrat, writing from Cairo, shows:
W. 81. RUSSELL the correspondent of the Londo1
Times, arrived here last evening from the South
He IL very distant and reserved in regard to max
ing any statements Of the force or movements o
the Southern rebels
The officers and troops here show marked
GOODNESS Of attention to him, and, in fact, very lit
NE courtesy. He is accused Of having cottoaea
TOO much to the Southern rebellion, and has lost
his influence and the respect which attached to
him before he made his Southern tour.
Equally false, We suspect, is the other Abolition
statement chat Dr.. Russell had complained that his
letters to the Times we're tempered with in the
Southern Post-ofices.

RUNNING THE BLoCKADE.-Five schooners-we

New Orleans yesterday evening, in spite of that
frightful gunboat in the Sound. One of them,

railroad iron, went up the Tensas. As this is the
only vessel with railroad iron bound from New Or
