starts at the mention of Jeff.Davis or Wise, or Ben McCullogh, and that a body-guard of Kansas cut-throats' under the lead of Jim Lamb, the murderer, sleep every night in the East Room. He will soon find that Virginia has other names of terror for cowardly abolitionists, and that to be surrounded by cut-throats may put his own jugular in danger. The marauding expedition which the Washington Administration sent to Norfolk was dictated by a spirit as cowardly as it was impotent.

What principles of elevated statesmanship could have dictated the burning of the best Navy-Yard belonging to the Government, and some of the finest vessels in the service? The Navy-Yard was unoccupied and undefended; and upon Mr. Lincoln's own theory
