Matters in Virginia.

From private letter, dated May Goth.
written by lady in Barbour County, Vir-
sinia, to lady friend in this County, we
are permitted to extract the following:
No means will be left untried 10 pre-
vent the Union men from voting at the
coming election, viz. the 23d, when the
people vote on the Secession Ordinance.
A great many quiet Onion men will most
certainly be frightened to stay away from
the polls; others will be more unmanagea-
HE. There are some who will vote if they
have to fight for it, and look for a good
deal of fighting and perhaps worse. A
Union meeting attempted to be held at
Phillippa, last week, was broken up by an
armed mob of secessionists, who entered
the court house with their guns. Phillip
pa is the headquarters of rampant band
Of secessionists, who are trying to control
the whole county but it is thought by some
that they will have hard work to do it,
In other precincts in Barbour, the Union
men are largely in the majority; in one
place they met and selected delegate to
the Wheeling Convention. At Grafton on
the railroad the Union men have cannon
planted aud they have stopped the cars
SOec in search Of arms sent to some volun-
tecrs in Phillippa. The Union men are
srming for election, and look for warm
work. The most ridiculous stories are 10

class, who are all ignorant; such as that,
''Lincoln's army are allowed to ravish all
the women and kill all the children" that
they have committed over 60 murders, ("
that "LincOln is drunk all his time, he is

This is done to get votes and volunteers.

scalping Knives for the south.

Letters from English catlerss received
BY the Persia, say that . Birmingham
house has an order from the Southern States
for tee,,ty thousand scalpiRg kai'es, for
which special pattern was sent out.
There are orders in Sheffield, also, for the
same class ofinstruments. We have heard
a great deal of complaint from our dear
Southern friends, that the Government
was about to'wage war of savage barbar-
ity upon the South. Itdoes mot appear
yet that any scalping knives have been or
dercd, while the above is substantiatcd
through Southern statements that there
arc 5000 Indians at Norfolk, armed with
scalping knives as we'll as rifles. Theirs
is to be. a gentlemanly warfare, while ours
is to be one of barbarism. They should be
careful and not teach us any Of their CIV
ilization. - Boston Atlas. 9al iel.5 % y1i
