From Washington Lincoln's proclamation.arrests of unoffending citizens, &c., &c. The following is Lincoln's proclamation for the blockade of the ports of Virginia and North Carolina: Whereas, for the reasons assigned in my proclamation of the 19th instant, a blockade of the ports of the States of South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas was ordered to be established: And whereas, since that date, public property of the United States has been seized, the collection of the revenue obstructed, and duly commissioned officers of the United States, while engaged in executing the orders of their superiors, have been arrested and held in custody as prisoners, or have been impeded in the discharge of their official duties, without due legal process, by persons claiming to act under authorities of the States of Virginia and North Carolina, an efficient blockade of the ports of those States will also be established. In witness whereof, I hav
Deceased. --Samuel S. Farrier, a prominent and successful merchant, and President of one of the banks of Charleston, S. C., is dead. The death of Senator Edward B. Bryan, of South Carolina, is also announced. Mr. Farrier was a native of Albemarle county, Va., and settled in Charleston in 1826.
Gen. Gwynn. --Gen. Walter Gwynn, having accepted an important command in Virginia, has resigned the position of Chief of Engineers, which he held in South Carolina. His letter of resignation breathes a grateful and tender appreciation of the confidence bestowed by his adopted State, in whose service he has been honorably distinguished.
Democratic party, who repeatedly proclaimed them as a part of their national platform, and carried many elections upon that platform. It is true, that in 1832 they came indirectly under review in connection with the nullification movement of South Carolina; but the right asserted by that State to resist Federal aggressions in the Union, and to nullify acts of Congress by laws of her own, was not precisely in accordance with the doctrines of '98, which rather taught that the proper remedy of the States for infractions of the Constitution by the Federal Government was to be found in a withdrawal from the Union. The result of the contest of 1832 was a drawn battle--South Carolina refusing to abandon her doctrine, and the Federal Government declining any serious attempt at coercion. But whatever may be thought of nullification — a doctrine not unpopular at the South--nothing, until this time, has ever occurred to unsettle the principles of '98 and '99. The South has persisted in as
Arrival of South Carolina troops. --A detachment of the Second Regiment of South Carolina volunteers, 283 in number, under Col. J. B. Kershaw, arrived in Richmond at half-past 5 o'clock yesterday evening per Petersburg Railroad. The companies composing the detachment are commanded by Captains McManus, Hale and Richardson.--The gallant representatives and defenders of Southern rights, immediately on their arrival, took up their line of march for the Central Fair Grounds, where there are now encamped some of the finest specimens of the citizen soldier to be seen in the world.
and county, were present. The report has reached our community that Cameron, Lincoln's Secretary of War, had telegraphed to Gov. Letcher asking for an armistice! It is not believed; but if so, the request is considered an impudent, senseless, cowardly act. Our ladies, old and young, are down upon any such an arrangement, unless Lincoln will withdraw his forces from the soil of Virginia, and withdraw the call for 75,000 volunteers "to suppress combinations" and enforce the laws in "South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas," and now in Virginia. Davy Bird, the faithful servant of the late Gov. Campbell, of this place, is extremely anxious to get the scalp of Lincoln! He says if he has half a chance he can secure the prize! Many of the slaves of this county are anxious to get hold of him;--they have no confidence in the hypocritical pretensions of a set of puritanical Yankees. Gladly did we receive the intelligence that the Convention had unite
