The champion muggins of the 10Th
century, Sergeant Bates, who carried an
American flag through the Southern
States just after the close of the late war
has gained further notoriety by carrying
our national colors all over England. As
if he would never tire of making him
self conspicuous, he now proposes tc
carry the British flag through the United
States. If he comes to Phoebe, we sug-
gest that he be treated to coat of tar
and feathers.

Letter from WarreHtOn.

Correspondence of the Norfolk Firginian.l
WARRENToN, June 2G.-Warrenton has nu
mcrous attractions, even to q stranger, who can
take only birds eye view of it, but to those
who once make it their local habitaton, 1t has
a charm which is never lost, even after years of
absence. The climate is peculiarly pleasant,
being equally removed from the extremes OF
heat and cold. The diseases incident to Tide
Water Virginia, and those specially feared 10
the Allegheny and Blue Ridge districts, are al
most unknown here. The scenery is beautiful;
Scarcely an afternoon passes at this season OF
the wear that our graceful hills and quiet val
Ieys are not yelled in dreamy, purple haze,
that lends an exquisite tenderness to views at
all times beautiful We have not the lovely
water scenery of the seaboard, nor the bold,
rugged mountains Of West Virginia; but if Ma
ture has anywhere in America more real love
illness than in the vicinity of this town, | have
never seen 1t.
In the far-famed society OF Fauquier county,
there is an attraction to which pirgiulans at
least are especially susceptible Much of the
wealth OF other days has passed away, but that
Unborn refinement, that elevation of character,
that high bred air that cannot be acquired in
one generation, still distinguish the people OF
this community.
No one can fail to be struck with the intel
lectual and social culture of the men and women
of Warrenton. 1t gives breadth to all OF the
habits of society here that partakes OF the city,
rather than the provincial town. General Early,
at the close OF his recent visit to us, quantity
said, "Warrenton is the biggest little town
ever saw.
Since the war many of the old army and
navy officers have gathered here, and are unob-
trusively filling the soil, hoping to iud in the
quiet pursuits Of agriculture balm for their
chated spirits. Perhaps we have as many
men of civil and military fame in and near this
town as can be found in any part Of the South.
You may meet on our streets, or 10 any public
gathering, Major General Ex-Governor Extra
Billy Smith, Lieutenant General John G. Penn
berton, Hugcr, L9max, VIM. H. Payne, Eppa
Hunton and Col. Mosby, all Of army fame; and
of the navy, Captains James A. North, Van
R. Morgan, Frank Shepherd, Pembroke Jones
aud Sims.
We should rot forget to mention Blind Tom
among the celebrities Of this place. Warren
ton is his home.
The town is now filling up with its usual sup
ply ofsummer visitors Of whom we have gen
orally several hundred from the cities of |ir-
gipia and from the North and South.
The beauty and healthfulness Of this region
of country and the great accessibility Of this
particular place, make this popular resort in
the Summer
