But let not the false impression be for a moment entertained that there can be a deficiency of bread and meat in the South--no matter if the war should continue for years. The census of 1850 shows that Virginia and North Carolina produced jointly 13,363,000 bushels of wheat, or 241,000 more than the great wheat State of New York, or a quantity equal to the whole product of the six New England States, with New Jersey, Michigan, Iowa, and Wisconsin, all put together.

Lamb, of this city, is named as a candidate for Congress from this Congressional district, and it is believed that he would be clected should he consent to take the field. A flag of truce came to Craney Island yesterday from Old Point with four ladies from Washington, and two prisoners from the Rip Raps. Yesterday a flag of truce went down from this city to the Fort with four Northern timber-getters, from the neighborhood of Williamsburg, who refused to take the oath of fidelity to the South. There are now at Hampton Roads, at anchor, four first-class frigates and several old whale ships, with large boats. These last are no doubt intended for transporis.

It is stated as a significant fact, that while there are thousands in the camp, here and in other parts of the State, drilling for battle, cheerfully suffering the privations attending a preparation for active warfare, far away from home and its endearments, standing guard by day and by night, in storm and calm, in rain and sunshine, there are some who are rapidly increasing the dimensions of their "pile" by speculations, and in some cases by extortion. I do dot prefer this charge, and hope it could not be sustained; but the charge is made.
