What will Virginia do? is again the great oues-

mon has gone further South than Richmond and
that since his departure the Administration has
changed its programme in regard to the eVacua-
ton OF Fort Sumter. 1t is even reported that the
evacuation is to be conditional. Colonel L. is to
examine the stock Of provisions on hand, and if
the supply is not sufficient to maintain the troops
now here, then he will deliver the Presidents order
to MAJ jor Anderson to evacuate the fortress.
Dispatches to day from Fort Pickens state that
the garrison there is short of provisions, and can
hold out but short time longer. None but official
communication is permitted at Pensacola, and the
squadron can neither reinforce the fort nor furnish
supplies. Appearances indicate that before long
the Government will also be compelled to abandon
Fort Pickens to the Secessionists.

Few persons have any idea of the wonderful
things that can be done with simple pen
and ink, in the way Of lifelike pictures and land
scapes. We once saw large account.book,
every capital letter of which was a picture of
some sort; the whole book, in fact, was filed with
quaint figures like those on the cover of Punch,
portraits of distinguished men, views at sea and
ashore, etc, ETC., all executed in the most per-
fectly artistic STYLE
Last evening we saw very fine specimen of this
pen-picturing, executed by Mr.. Howard Bristow,
as present to his friend, DR.. H. c. Gray. 1t is an
alegorical representation, contrasting Health and
Sickness. In the center, a grinning deaths head
upon scroll, with brawny blacksmith on the
right, and on the left pale, attenuated figure
stretched upon bed, while other ghostly, shroud,
ed figures are seen beyond. The various scrolls,
lettering and lourshes which fill up the remainder
of the picture, are executed with exquisite skill

FROST MUsIC.-1 was once belated in Canada on
a fine winter day, and was riding over the hard
snow on the margin of wide lake, when the most
faint and mournful wall that could break solemn
silence seemed to pass through me like dream
| stopped my horse and listened. For sometime |
could not satisfy myself whether the music was in
the air or in my own brain. | thought OF the pine
forest which not far off; but the tone was not
harp-likc, and there was not breath of wind.
Then it sweed and approached then it seemed
to be miles away in moment; and again it moan
ed, as If under my very feet. 1t was, in fact, al
most under my feet 1t was the voice of the winds
imprisoned under the pail of ice suddenly cast over
them by the peremptory power of the frost. No.
body there had made air holes, for the place was
a wilderness; and there was no escape for the
winds, which must moan on till the spring warmth
should release them. They were fastened down in
silence; but they would come out with an explo-
sion when, in some still night after warm, spring
day. the ice would blow up, and make crash and
a racket from shore to shore. So was told at my
hosts that evening, where arrived with something
of the sensation Of u haunted man. 1t had been
sometime before the true idea struck me, and
meanwhile the rising and falling moan made my
very heart thrill again. [Once Week.

From the Galveston News we extract the follow
ing report Of the cotton market for last week.
In this market the sales on Saturday, 10th inst,
were LOO bales, the demand being good, but oper-
ations being checked by the high prices asked.
On Monday, 18th, 100 bales were sold at irregular
rates under rather dull market; for the lower
grades holders gave way little, on the European
and New Orleans advices, but they would not con-
cede any reduction for the higher grades.
The more encouraging news by the New Orleans
steamer on Tuesday, 18th, produced a more active
demand, and on Tuesday and Wednesday, $40 bales
were sold an advance being realized on all quail
ties. On Thursday and Friday, 2lst and 22d, the
advance was maintained operations being check
ed, however, by light receipts inferiority of the
quality offered, and disposition of factors for high
rates. while buyers, in view of the irreguarity Of
European quotations, were not disposed to meet
factors demands. The sales for the last two days
amounted to 375 bales, or for the week, 14l5
bales; quotations closing at
Ordinary, u to 81 Good Ordinary, 81 to 81 !;
Low Middling, l04 to lO3 Midding, III to 1l3

for the State. He had transferred the post and
property to Col Fl. E. McCulloch, acting for the
Convention.

them-the United States troops surrendering with
out ppositon-returned to Camp Cooper, and
was to leave again in a few days to complete his
arrangements for holding those posts and garrison
ing them with an efficient Ranger force.
Capt. Rogers was to start on the 18th with 50
men, on scout to the head waters Of the Colorado,
taking seventeen pack mules and his provisions
from Fort Ckadbourne. They would be out for
over month, and from Col. Baylor's and Capt.
Karnes' reports, and from the numerous signs
and trails, all pointing to one direction, expected
to find large encampment of Indians. Capt
Rogers was determined to have bout with the
Indians, if he could possibly reach them in time.
On the oath February, Col. Dalrymple, COM
mandng the companies placed on the frontier by the
Governor, started from Camp Cooper on scout of
30 or 80 days. with forage, etc. He had Captain
Harrison's company, Capt. Sublett's and part of
Capt. Mays company, making in all over hun
dred men. Nothing reliable had been heard from
him since the two Indians were killed by Capt
Harrison's company, the day after they left Camp
Cooper.
These constant scouts, by tried Ranger compa-
MES, are the only way to guard the frontier from
Indians.

disagreeable enough in the forenoon, but the
dash of rain which interviewed dismissed the one
and settled the other, and the calm and sunny
afternoon was truly glorious.
The religious observance of Good Friday, by
the Catholic population, was as extensive as ever.
The Catholic cathedrals and churches were crowd

all ages and nationalities; and mutitudes Of

the back of his right ear to his right hip, was re-

testimony was that nothing like it had ever before
