The First virginia RegIment.

About noon to-day the First Virginia
Regiment passed through the city, en- route
for Wheeling, where it has been ordered TO
recruit. The First Virginia was among
the 6rst regiments in the field, aud has
seen a deal of hard service. It's ranks,
from a thousand strong. have been reduced
TO three hundred aud twenty now all told
IA sad record, but one, nevertheless, which
sheds glory on the command. The reei-

conducted itselfwith credit. Colonel Tho
burn, who had command of the regiment
when it was first gotten up, is now lying
dangerously i'll, and Major Weddle is in
command to-day. The men were enter
taihed by the Subsistenee COMMITTEES. and

Aperperate podge.


The Wheeling Press, driven TO despera-.
ton at every point. being circumvented
within the last few days by whitening e1-
posures as to its mendscity and its mean
ness, has at last the hardihood to publish
to the world that Daniel s. Dickinson, the
great democratic leader of New York, has
turned Abolitionist. 1t makes the same.
charge, against Congressman Hamilton, the
escaped refugee from Texas, and also.
against Col. FOrney. They are all Adolf
tionists. -a} 9
Nov this charge is worth examining.
The Wheeling Pfsss has made 1T, ahd we
cali upon it to prove it. 1t made the same.
charge against gentlemen who addressed
the Union Meeting at St. Clairsville, the
other night, aud charged also that the
meeting was called as an Abolition meet
ing. The lie in both instances was stamped
on tho editors brazeu face, aud he stands
convicted ofit before this community and
before the st. Clairsyille community.
Andyst it would be just aseasy for himto
make good his false aud malicious and trail
torons assertions concerning the st. Glars
VILE meeting, as it would be for him TO
show that Dan'l s. Dickinson has become
m Abolitiouist. The editor was never
more conscious Of having penned a wilful
and shameless falsehood than when he
penned this assertion. He knows that Dau'l
). Dickinson never wasIan A5olitiOnist--
and that he is not now. He knows we'll,
for the editor was born and raised 10 the
State of New York, (if are correctly to-
formed, J that Dan'l S. Dickinson has all his
life been rigid, a very rigid Democrat
and, in addition, a very intense slavery
man. He was voted for as candidate
for the Presidency, in the Convention that
nominated Jon. @. Breckinridge, SO peeuli-
,arIy sound on slavery of all Northern men,
was he considered by that body.
The commonest sense of shame ought to
have restrained the editor OF the Press from
such an escape as he seeks to make by say
Ing. that Dickinson is an Abolitionist. If
he had any shame, and was not rendered
completely desperate by having been so
badly exposed and fiattened out lately, he
would never seek to dodge the merits of
Dickiuson's seathipg rebukes by the mis-
cradle prete1t that he is an AbolitiOnist.
The truth is, and it is apparent to every
body, that the term "Abolitiouist" in the
mouths of such miserable demagogues and
traitors as the Press editor, has lost all its
Significance. When such men as Dickinson
are SO branded who that is loyal can expect
tOescape2 Everybody is an "AbolitionistP
who does not do the bidding of the tools of
treason and secession here 10 the loyal
States.

A letter from G. A. Kennedy, Esq, is ale
so transmitted to the Legislature, giving
an account of the inhuman and barbarous
treatment of two citizens of this common
wealth, who, while acting under the mill
tary authority of Virginia, took possession
of the town of Ripley, Including the mails
Of the federal Government, and were after
wards captured by the Federal forces, con-
fined in Jail in Wheeling indicted for rob.
hing the mails, convicted aud sentenced to
the penitentiary for four years, and are now
conVicts in the penitentiary at Washington
Governor Letcher refers this letter to the
Secretary of War, with the request that he
will "set aside, by lot or otherwise, the
two highest officers that he may have as
prisoners belonging to Northwestern Viz
ginia," or, if no officers here, then the two
most efficient citizens now in confinement,
and turned over to the State authorities,
'nud that notice be given to the President
of the United States that these parties will
be huug on given day uuless Dnskey and
his associate are discharged"
We repeat that this language speaks the
deep throbbings of the peoples heart, aud
that they are tired TO death of submitting
to such outrages without retaliation. The
late debates in Congress upon the black
flag show that the Confederate Govern
ment is trying to wake up the necessities
of the case, as proclaimed long ago by the
able and intrepid Governor of Virginia.

character should receive that attention
which they deserve. The Irishman who
would turn his back on the American Re-

How LIFE Is LosT.-A man died the
other day at the Bellevue Hospital, after
being sick over two years. On opening
the chest, there was scarcely single inch
of sound lungs on one side; the organ had
broken down in one mass of corruption,
and the yellow matter of consumption was
dipped out with a skull, the most convc-
, nient cup at hand. lie had been working
in the garden one summers day, and feel
ing little tired at noon, went round to
the shady side Of the house and sat down
to rest. \ little wind was blowing, which
was so grateful to him that he INDUCED
himself in it for few moments, when he
was taken with a chill, and never knew a
well moment afterwards.
Only two days ago, one of the sweetest
possible pair of black eyes came to in
quire, with all the shrinking and difiidcncc
inseparable from the occasion, what we
thought of the case of the young gentle
man who had applied for advice within u
week, stating as a reason that they were
engaged to be married.
The young man in question had arisen
one morning in early May, and dressed in
very light clothing, but was SO much mis-
taken in the temperature of the weather
that he soon chilled, without the means
of changing his condition for some time
that is, he felt chilly for several consccu.
tive hours, and had been an invalid ever
I SAGE. The disease had made such fear
ful progress, that two-thirds of his lungs
were useless to him, and emaciation,
nightsweatS, harassing cough and swol.
len feet, made it useless to afford the en-.
couragcment Of even prescribing for the
case.
These two cases involve the same prin'
ciple-getting chilled; one after exercise
the other by remaining cold for hours
