in his nhil!ty, zeal and patriotism, and feel as
sured that his most important department,
will be conducted with forecast and prudence
combined. All our approximations a; The ap-
proach of the aholitionists by way ol Tell
ncssec, Mississippi and the gulf, are merged
in the anxiety we feel to hear froru tho army
in Virginia. All hearts pray for the success
