The Washington correspondence the New
York Times, in describing the recent military
levee at the White House, thrs describes
President Lincoln and his accomplished
lady:
It was late when I entered The President
SO d near the East Room, surrounded by
party of gentlemen. He vss nearly a head
taller than any other gentleman in tie room.
He has much finer face than some Of the
prints that represent him, and though not
really handsome, has a manly, honest genial
face which invites confidence and respect.
The expression of his eyes is peculiarly pleas
ing; clear, with q mild softHess,-in strange
contrast with the stern lines of his lean fea-
lures. His manner has the ease and affabillity
of 6 true gentleman, without the least As
sumption of hauteur. looked on him long
and steadily, and should say that simplicity
and honesty Of purpose, with certain re-
served force, were the distinguishing marks
| in his character. While / spoke with him
noticed the sound OF his voice, which has
none of the Western ro1ghness which his
/ fellow cOcntryman and brethren Of the South
give him credit for. Mrs. Lincoln stood near,
talking with a party OF ladies and gentlemen.
/ The beauty Of her arms and shoulders attract
ed nv attention. They are very white and
polished as marble. She wore handsome
brocade, of Marie Louise blue, deui-train,
and g headsdress Of white Marabout feathers,
tipped with blue. Her ornaments were
pearls. She has lady-like dignity of de-
meanor, and should lay, was woman OF
keen and decided character. Her manner
was very friendly and cheerful to sveEy body,
and she was much interested while told her
of the preparations going on 70 prepare com
f3rtable Hospital clothing for the soldiers
and other things Of which they will stand in
need.

Nineteen hundred Ne v York troops arrived
yesterday afternoon by way of the Potomac,
and are encamped near the Arsenal in the
outskirts Of the city. Like all others Of the
troops which have arrived up TO this date,
they are hardy, courageous looking body
Of men.
Scarcely train arrives now which does
not bring more OF less soldiers. Sometimes
in small dstachmenis and again in large
boz les. Most Of them reach the city at
night which IS said 10 be ordered By Gov
eminent in order that ii may not be known
how many troops are gathered here; this
policy being dictated by desire to keep the
insurrectionists in ignorance OF the real
strength of oar forces. It is genesaily
believed that the Government wiz inangurate
decisive policy before the vote on the Sc
cesslOn ordinance in Virgins is taken on the
fourth Thursday Of the present month.
RATHER sAHGURK. eu go
Some sanguine persons now here who have
lately been in Virginia declare that the
people giliUOts dO'Oa the secession ordinance I
Nothing is more probable than that such a
result would ensus were the people relieved
of that system of terrorism which WIS lately
attempted in Maryland. The Confederate
soldiers within the borders Of the State,
imported thence by the Terrorists from the
Cotton States, it is stated viii be allowed to
vote, and as there are many thousands Of
them, the result Of the election is already fore
gone, and only requires iarcical fOrmality
to be declared binding on the people by the
State authorities
