regiment of bayonets should the next moment pierce his body. So Virginia announced her stern resolution to stand to her independence, in defiance of all the regiments which the powerful and exasperated North could bring against her. We repeat, that the vote of Thursday puts Virginia at the head, as she is in the van, of the Southern movement. She is to receive the whole brunt of the war, and she has voted her purpose to receive it heroically, even as Jackson dared the hell-hounds of Ellsworth.--There is to be warm work, such as this continent never saw before; and Virginia votes that it may be as warm as the wrath of the enemy, disappointed and exasperated at her course, may choose to make it. The Southern Government has shown the appreciation in which they hold this vote by the prompt manner in which they have moved their headquarters to Richmond. After the vote of Thursday they can feel at home in Virginia and their heroism impels them to accept upon her soil her own fate.

What an exceedingly moderate, modest and rational idea, that they should invade our country, with the most horrid threats against all we hold dear, and that if we raise a weapon in self- defence, it is the most infernal outrage upon these excellent people ever recorded in the annals of mankind! They expect their men to go to war, and if one of the "Lambs" gets killed, it is an unheard of brutality!

He was a zealous Southern. Rights man, and would have shot Elisworth if he had known that it would be his last act.
y Court appropriated $15,000 for the defence of the county. Each man is to have a fire-arm — each woman a pike. Well done little one! Mr. Samuel Moore, of Danville, has six sons in the service of the State of Virginia at this time; and still another, who is now absent, will enlist in a few days. A handsome church of the Presbyterian denomination was dedicated in Petersburg on Sunday last. The motto of Billy Wilson's brigade of New York Roughs is, "Give us foemen worthy of our steal." Thomas Wilson, late proprietor of the Shelby (N. C) Sulphur Springs, died at that place on the 22d inst. Col. Alex. R. McKee, of Kentucky, has been appointed U. S. Consul to Panama, New Granada. Thirty women were discovered in Ellsworth's Zouaves after the regiment arrived in Washington. They were sent home. Charles Lever, the novelist, died at Spezzia in the latter part of April. The fly is doing fearful destruction to the wheat in various sections of Indiana.
