The Thirteenth of June. A patriotic and intelligent correspondent calls attention to the remarkable fact that the day recently set apart for fasting, humiliation and prayer, was the natal day of Gen. Scott, he having been born on the 13th June, 1785. He asks if it was so ordered by design that the national observances alluded to should take place on that day, or was it accidental?

In that case, he suggests that it is was so ordered by design that the national observances alluded to should take place on that day, or was it accidental? It was entirely accidental, and therefore what he terms "Providential." In that case, he suggests that it is "ominous for Gen. Scott and his party."

The organization was completed on Monday last by the unanimous election of the following officers: Henry D. Capers, Captain; G. A. Schwarzman, First Lieutenant; Samuel Scott, Second Lieutenant; Henry Sparnick, Ensign; John Hart, Secretary; Jas. W. Robertson, Treasurer. The name of the Confederate Guards has been adopted, and the corps will hasten to proficiency in drill and exercise of arms.

at war with this State. Mr. John Tyler desired an exception to be made in favor of Col. M. M. Payne, now an invalid in this city, from wounds received in the Mexican war. Mr. Garnett, so far from excepting Colonel Payne, would rather be disposed to include him by name, because he has recently taken Lincoln's oath of office, or must do so before he receives his salary. The ordinance was then amended, so as to make it operative only after the first of August next. Mr. R. E. Scott, of Fauquier, opposed the ordinance, deeming it unnecessary and uncalled for.
