VIZ have received an old worn and torn
copy of the Richmond Rhig, dated July I'd.
in which the proceedings attending the
Inauguration of our new State government
ON the previous goth of June, are copied
and savagely commented upon. The fol-
lowing is the preface to the proceedings:
THR VIRGINIA TORIES.
The last scene in a stupid farce was
played at Wheeling on the Goth ult., in the
pretended inauguration of ''West Virginia"
as a State. We put the account on record
for the present amusement of our readers,
but more especially for the future instruc-
ton Of prosecuting attorneys, when they
come TO try some Of the smart fellows for
treason. We have spoken Of this business
as the last scene in the farce; there is yet
another scene to come, that will suddenly
convert the farce into tragedy, In which
The hangman will be prominent actor.

Mr.. EDIroR.-Since the organization
Of this Regiment, and especially, since its
transfer to Virginia, it has experienced
many trying hardships and privations.-
Its formation was completed, as your rea-

.ovant, Colonel; Capt. DIXON Barnes,
Lieut.. Colonel, and Capt. Cadwallader
Jones, Major.
Immediately after its organization, it

and brsast-works. The details Of this en-.

jfest a great pleasure in having infantry
between them and the enemy. However,
on the lst day Of January 1862, the
news came to camp that the enemy was
landing in force at Port RoyaI-a Ferry
on the Port Royal River. Your readers
are we'll acquainted with the particulars
OF this engagement, and also the robe
bearing and gallantry displayed by Lieut..
Colonel Barnes, who was at that time in
command OF the Regiment. The rare
perfection, to which this Regiment has
attained. in drill and discipline. is a,,ribu

Shortly after the resignation Of Col.
Dunovaut, we were transferred to Virgin

after remaining short time, we were
again ordered to Richmond to defend the
Capitol Of the Confederacy. The glorious
achievements Of the old 18th in the seven
