WASHINGTON, August II. Citizens of
Virginia of the Radical persuasion profess
to be well pleased with the condition of
affairs generally, for they affect to have
information that the President sympathizcs
with them on the test-oath and other i'm
portant questions, Or, as one of them put
it to-day, "We are perfectly well satisfied
with the course things are taking"
The report now, is (and | give it to you
only as reporD that the Virginia
Legislature will not be called together,
nor will anything be done, uutll after the
October elections in Ohio and Pennsylva-
MIA. In spite of these reports, however,
it is very doubtful whether anything has
been definitely determined upon 1t is
not believed that the subject of the test
oath was preached while General Candy
was here, aud his visit had reference
especially to perfectng an arrangement
with the War Department to secure funds,
for the payment of the expenses of
reconstruction in Virginia. Correspond

The Knoxville Wig dEaws the following

on the stand at Marysville, threatened with
death BY the Radical mob whom he held
at bay:
amid the excitement be stood as calm
as if ne danger had menaced him. The
cries of Take him down Shoot him !,
and other cries as violent, though couched
in language too indecent for repeti ton,
were met with chances of cold defiance.
He was a man Of marble, save that his
eye flashed with unuttcrable resolve to
maintain to the last the course he had
marked out. His friends were determined
to protect him at all hazards, and when the
third effort at intimidation was thwarted
he enemy gave up the attempt in disgust
and despair"

that it was General Canby's intention
shortly to convene the Legislature, to de-

past personal difficulty has been pending
between Major j. A Englehard, editor Of
the journal. aud General j C. Abbot,
United States Senator, which grew out
of an editorial article in the Post, of the
9Th instant, in which the editors of the
journals were denounced as public liars
on account CT alleged injustice .done to
abbott in the reports made of his speeches.
No collision or correspondence having
occurred in the meantime, on Tuesday
evening abbott addressed note to En-
glehard, in which be stated that he. Alb
bott,- and not the editor of tne Post. was
the author of the offensive article, and
that he was rsonally-responsible for the
same On Wednesday and Thursday
there was unmistakabe evidence that
Englehard would attack Abbott on sight
but the vigilance of the authorities pre-
vented it. On Thursday Abbott was ar
rested and placed under bonds to keep the
peace. Englchard successfully avoided ar
rest unit! Saturday, at one o'clock a. NJ.
when he was surprised at his private
house by the sheriff and posse of men,
and placed under bonds. On Sunday
morning Englehard. with three friends
proceeded to South Carolina, whence he
addressed communication to Abbott, Of
which the following is an extract:
You mnst now make full retraction
of the contents of that article and an ap-
aIogy for publishing it, or give me the
satisfaction to which am entitled in ac
eordance with the code of honor"
On Monday, General Abbott through
his friend, replied in a concentrations,
of which the following Is an extract:
by authority of General Abbott, and
being fully empowered by him, in his
name we retract in full the article in the
Post of the 9Th instant rejecting on
Major Englehard, and express our regret
that it was written and published"
The ameade was accepted by friends
acting for Euglehard in a written com
muncation. in which it is stated that IN
nothing that has appeared IN the journal
was any assault on tie private character
of Gen. Abbott intended, and expressing
regret that it had been so construed.
