PROGRAMME OF THE CAMPAlGN.-A Washing
ton despatch says
The programme of the military campaign is
beginning to be developed. For the present, il
is evident there will be no offensive or forward
movement. II the Government were so disposed,
it would hardly be able to advance troops any
distance into the rebel country. The men need
more practice in the school Of the soldier, more
discipline, more steadiness than they now have
before It will do to take the field in earnest.
But think the policy of the Government is
not to he hand to hand contest, or a'mere ex-
hioltlon OF brute power. | am confirmed in the
opinion that the Administration will first trv tbe
SLOW but sure process of eNhaustng the rebels
hy the delays aud privatious which ALWAYS de-.
stroy weak power The superior wenlt5 nov.
or and resources Of the North must certainIv
win this contest and il will demand much nore
Humane and ellectua means to literally force
lhe reoel Government to commit suicideEto die
oil the disease they have already contracted
But even this humane policy requires \ large
oouy Of troops to carry it uut-probablv even
more than have already heen called out. Largo
FORCES and efficient equipment are essentials Ia
the peaceful campaign l have intmnted. To
enforce the laws in the rebelous States will
require a numerical force as a Posse eoDlitaf,fs.
and to that complexion It will come at last.

WASHINGTON, May 10th, 1861.
Snail have received your letter of yester-
days date, asking me to give you. 10 writing,
my reasons for considering an exception on your
part of Governor Letcher's proposition to pur-
chase the steamships Yorktown aud jamestown.
recently seized by his order, and now in possess
sion, an net of treason. With this request
readily comply
An instruction has broken out in several Of
the States Of this Union, inclading Virginia,
designed to overthrow the Government of the
United States The Executive authorities of the
States are parties to that nsurrection, aud are
public enemies. Their action In sezing or by
Ing vessels to be employed in executing that
design, is not merely without the authority OF
law, but ia treason. Il is treason for any person
to give aid and comfort to the public enemies
To sell vessels to them, which is thor purpose
to use as ships Of war, is to give them aid and
comfort. To receive money from them in pny
ment for vessels which they hive seized for hesc
purposes, would be to attempt to convert the M.
lawful seizure into II sale, and would subject thu
party 30 offending to the pains and penalties Of
treason, md the Government would moi hesitate
to bring the offender to punishment.

WE TAKE great pleasure in calling the

Prof. Woods Restorative Cordial and Blood Ron
ovatOr, in another column of our paper. It's sell
dom we take any notice of patent medicines, but
we cannot refrain from speaking Of this cordial,
and do justice to the afflicted as well as ourselves
We have watched the progress of this cordial since
its first introduction to the public and we are sat
isfed that there is nothing in use for cleansing
the system and renovating the blood, that can be
compared with Prof. Woods Cordial. Any one
suffering from general debility, after using one
bottle will see its beneficial effects. We have had
a long acquaintance with the proprietor, and know
him to be skilled in the science of medicine; and
anything compounded by him the public can rely
upon as being just what it is recommended We
would advise all sick or well to get bottle. 1t
is pleasant to the taste. and exhiiarating to the
system. But we refrain from further comments
as any one, after using bottle, will be satisfied
as to its effects.
