e Commander of the Federal forces. Officers and Soldiers of the Department of Western Virginia: You have closed an arduous campaign with honor to yourselves and satisfaction to the country. None but these who have been with you, as I have, can fully appreciate your trials and privations. Your triumph has been three-fold — over your own inexperience, the obstacles of nature, and the rebel forces. When our gallant young Commander was called from us, after the disaster of Bull Run, this department was left with less than fifteen thousand men to guard three hundred miles of railroad and three hundred miles of frontier, exposed to "bushwhackers" and the forces of Gens Floyd, Wise, and Jackson. The Northwestern pass into it was fortified and held, Cheat Mountain secured, the rebel assaults there victoriously repelled, and the Kanawha Valley occupied. A march of one hundred and twelve miles over bad roads brought you upon Floyd's entrenched position, whence the reb

The hot bnd will no doubt push matters to extremities, urged on as she is by France, unless the people show unmistakable signs of not permitting the wacounteracting them. months ago I warned you in my letters that France and England were inimical; that they would surely seize the first ofuses to deliver up the rebels, Slidell and Mason, both England and France will do so — thus setting an example to the world of the extreme leng their rebellion, Europe would have shouted out "infamy;" and yet France and England are preparing to do just that infamous thing. It will panish waters, and that hence Spain has a right to join England and France in recognizing the South.

A march of one hundred and twelve miles over bad roads brought you upon Floyd's entrenched position, whence the rebels were dislodged, and chased to Sewell. Finally your patience and watchingi put the traitor Floyd within your reach, and, though by a precipitate retreat he escaped your grasp, you have the substantial fruits of victory.--Western Virginia belongs to herself, and the invader is expelled from her soil. In the name of our Commander-in-Chief, and in my own. I thank you. But the country will expect, your Commanding General expects, still more from you. A campaign without a defeat, without even a check, must be elicited by deeds of greater lustre. To this end I now call upon you for your own future honor, to devote yourselves with energy and zeal to perfect yourselves in all that pertains to drill, instruction and d

The hot blood of indignation mounts to the cheeks of loyal Americans here and in London when reading the vile, unmanly threats of the principal organs of both Governments.

How many were concerned in this villainous work is not yet known, but there is no doubt but that it was a preconcerted and simultaneous movement of the citizens along the road, as no single party could have accomplished so much in one night. Three hundred of the villains are known to have been engaged in the destruction of the bridge track at Warrentown. [Second Dispatch.] Warrenton.

the wrongs of England; but the recognition of the South by that power, which would imply a final separation from the United States, could not be regarded as an isolated act, and would impose upon France the necessity of assuming a decisive attitudet on the subject, yet there is no doubt but that the difficulty will be settled without a war between England and the United States.
