oner on Saturday, named Clark, was formerly wood
engraver in the publishing establishment Of Harper
Bros, in New.York. On the march from Yorktown,

which advanced consisted of 2,C00 infantry and 300
cavalry Tie two dese-ter represent the force 1000

The intelligence of yesterday that the myr-
midons Of Federal power had advanced upon
the soil Of Virginia produced an electrifying
effect in our community, and among the SOL
diery. Every eye frightened, and every heart
beat high with stern delight that the hour OF
vengeance is at hand. II Virginia can be
overrun by host of Northern miltiamen, if
one man in defence of bis ireside is not equal to
two invaders, then this onward movement OF
our detestable enemy is founded in wsdom.-
But when that day comes, it will be new day
In the history Of nations, and one which VIII
prove that we deserve to be conquered. Ii
has been given out repeatedly OF iaee by the
LINCOLN press that Gen. scoTT desired to de-
lay an advance till cool weather and till his
army was fully organized. But they could
~, brook the wise delay recommended by the
oaly General in their ranks that deserves tie
name, and the Republican pa. ers at Washing
ton pronounced ScoTT behind the times. They
will discover before long that it would have
been well for them to take his counsel They
cisregarded his advice once before in their at
tempt 10 reinforce L oft oomtef, anu they WI
find worse result from their present conteDp
of his military experience and Judgment
This ferocious and vile attempt to subjugat,
Virginia will be crushed at every point where i
In made. and there is not q man in the Com
monwealth who does not rejoice that 1t i

Invasion Of Virginia.

Virginia has been invaded by the monsirous
tyrant, who is prepared to battle this whole
land in blood, in the vain attempt TO subjugate
free and independent people. We are well
aware of tie idea in which all Northern men
are educated, that this is consolidated Gov
eminent; but they must also know that all
Southern men are educated in the exactly OPP
league of sovereign and independent States
each of whom has a right to withdraw from
the partnership whenever in its judgment there
Is sufficient cause. Hence, they are endeav orine
to force upon US detestable despotism; but
they may be assured that every man, woman
and child in the South will perish before thai
object is accomplished.

The Seventh Regiment.

The Richmond Wing, referring to the re-
ported return of this regiment to New York,
saws the reasons alleged for its return in the
New York papers are worth nothing. The
blood thirsty WEBB says: 1t is not composed
of those who are merely daily laborers, but of
men engaged in pursuits which they can leave
only by making great sacrifices and suhjecting
their families to greatinconveniences.' If in
convenienccs and sacrifices are not to be en-
countered, who will do the fighting? The
Evening Port, perhaps, comes nearer the true
solution of their speedy return from the wars.
That paper says: There are numbers who
regard their presence as absolutely necessary
here to sustain the police in case of any dis
order, any attempt by concealed Secessionists
to destroy the Navy y ard, or the forts in the
harbor, or set the city in flames" For Seces.
sioniSts we have only to read Perpetrators, wht
| very reasonably conclude they could make {
| more profitable campaign against the bank
and jowelry stores and merchants vaults il
New York than against the poverty strickel
| South. The Seventh is wanted at home 70
obvious reasons! BY all means let it hastel
| thither.

Kentucky Neutrality.

The Northern derpots are not disposed to
ssspect the position of neutrality which Ken
