T3F VIRGINIA ELECTION

Although the election Of members Of the
Legislature took place in the loyal organized
cities and counties on Thurs lay last, We
have only had reliable returns from Norfolk.
The result was published in Saturdays Fbig.
A special Washington despatch 10 the New
York Tribune Says iha: VIM. II. DuIany has
been elected to the Senate in the Fairfax
district, and J A. English 20 the House Of
Delegates. We apprehen5 there is some mis-
take in this announcement, bu; the Alexan-
dria state Journal will come along in a day
or two, and solve all doubts. The former
Senator, Hon. Thomas P. Brown, bad re-
ceived the endorsement; Of County Conyen-
ton in Alexandria, and il was supposed he
would be elected. Mr.. Dulany voted against
the ordinance OF secession in the State Con-
vention, but afterwards served il tho Con-
federate army. He is therefore ineligible
under the constitution.
The same despatch from which 10 copy
this announcement says that in ths election

Of Post Quartsrmaster, he has won the re-
spect and esteem, in both his private and
social character, of all with whom he has
been brought into contact, and his promotion
is we'll deserved.

THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
WARNTNG

An official communication is published, be-
tween the United States naval and military
representatives in the Gulf and the Captain
General Of Cuba, in reference to the Stone,
wall. Admiral Stribling and General New
ton tersely warn the Spanish Governor that
unless he gives up the ram to the United
States authorities the Spanish Government
must account for tolerating piracy. Inc
Captsin General gets out Of the difficulty oy
saying that he is acting under sold instEue-
tiOns" from his superiors; and promises that
as soon as the steam machinery Of the Stone
wall was repaired he would cause her to leave
the port, sunless some unforeseen occurrence
should give occasion for longer detention"
Subsequently to this the StoneWall was sur
rendered 10 the Spanish Government.

A SENSATION REPORT.

The New York Times of Saturday says
1.-The public may properly DO warned
against giving credit to the report of a Ball
timore news-mOnger relative to the treat
ment Of JeH Davis at Fortress Monroe
The story is permitted to circulate by tele-
graph, and we print it to show what is con-
sidered essential food for the prevailing
vicious appetite for sensations. II the gov
eminent have found it necessary 10 adopt
extra precautions in the case of the prisoner,
We are satisfied that no unnecessary harshness
has marked the treatment he has received.
And the story in the shape In which it APP
pears Is either an emanation from some rebel
sympathizer, intended to create feeling of
commiseration for Davis, or it has been con-
cocted to supply the lack of truthful intel
ligence on the subject Of that individuals
incarceration.

NDIrTlfFNTS F0R TRE4HON


The New York Herald says that a true bill
of indictment for treason has been found
against JET. Davis by the Grand Jury Of
Washington, and it is said that as soon as the
attendance Of the witnesses for the prosecu-
tIon can be procured he viii be taken from
the casemate IN Fortress Monroe, where he
is now in close confinement, and conveyed to
Washington for trial.
A special Washington despatch 70 the Phil
adelphia Inquirer says:
The Indictment against JEFF. Davis for high
treason, OF which YOU had the first intOrma-
tiOn on Tuesday, has not yet been made pub
lie, but viii probably be tomorrow. IL in
cludes John c. Breckenridge, + nd viii pro-
badly be pushed 70 trial al once The court
is composed Of Chief Justice d. X. Carter,
formerly OF Ohio; Judge O,en, formerly Of
New York, and Judge Wiley, Of this dis
trict.
Another Washington telegram says;
General Robert L. Lee will be indicted by
a Grand Jury in Richmond within iow days
for treason. The moment De is indicted bis
parole is Of no Further use 70 him, and he
will find himself in the same predicament as
Jed. Davis.
After the above was in type, we received
later papers from the North, containing the
indictment OF Davis in full. As i: is q mass
of yerbiase, and would occupy two columns
OF this paper, We copy isom tho Herald the
following synopsis
The indictment found to-day by the Grand
Jury oil the Supreme Court Of the District Of
Columbia against Jefferson Davis reciteS that
Jefferson Davis, late Of ihe county OF Henrico,
in the State Of Virginia, being an inlabitsnt
of and resident within and owing allegiance
and fidelity 20 tire United States, Wickedly
devising and intending 10 disturb the peace
and 10 subvert the government Of the said
United States, 20 s.i-, move aud excite re-
belliOa, insurrec.iln and war egl,nst the ui-
ted States, on the lst day OF June, 1854, a.
the county Of Henrico aforesaid, unlswMly,
falsely, maliciOusly aud trsitCrOusly, did
compass, levy and carry on war aud rebellion
against the United States, ijr tho Subyersion
OF the government, iI tho District Of CO.
lumbia aforesaid, and being leagued IN con-
spiracy with q large number o! Insurgents,
and being the leader and commander in-chIei
of said insurgents, did march and proceed 70
invade the said county Of Washington, and
then and there, On .ac 18th day OF July,
1854, did make war upon certain fort called
Fort Stevens did Kill and wound large mum
Der OF said troops Of the United States, con-
trary 10 the duty OF bis said allegiance aud
fidelity 70 the nited States.
The above is the SUBSTANCE OF the iudict-
ment, emitting the verbiage, which extends
it TO a great length.
A similar indictment was found against
John c. Breckenridge, and a bench warrant
issued for his arrest.

carried it on from assembling at the call OF
their sccomplices to act as the Legislature Of
the State. He tells Governor Brown that in
calling the Legislature together, without per-
mission Of the President, he has perpetrated
a fresh crime that will be dealt with accord
iugly. Any person responding to that call is
