AhO W Says.
An old and intelligent resident of Fairfax
county, living some ten miles from this city,
infoms us that the occupation of Virginia by
United States troops was wholly unexpe ct
ed by the Secessionists. The more ignorant
and numerous portion of them religiouslv
believed that one Virginian was a match
for twenty Yankees, and that wholesome
dread Of annihilation would dkeepthe United
States troops on this side of the Potomac.
Their better informed men, while not enter
tanning such extravagant notions as these,
still had vague confidence in the sanctity
Of Virginia soil, and expected to the last
that the pending difficulties would be settled
by compromise and a peaceable separa-
ton.

ments into Virginia came upon the seces-
sion population like clap of thunder. Ma

probably conscious of having committed out
RACES upon Union neighbors, likelyto be re-
membered and punished. Those who do
not fly are thoroughly cowed, and the com
