How noble and brave a thing it is, by warring among ourselves, to encourage the North to "concede nothing." With what eagerness the Black Republicans seize everything occurring in Virginia, which is in the least degree unfriendly to the Gulf States, is shown by the malignant unction of the Tribune, as it quotes the resolution passed at the recent meeting at Christiansburg, in Montgomery county; which resolution declares that Lincoln's election is no cause for secession. The Tribune bases an editorial on this meeting, and closes it with an appeal (like all the other appeals of our delayers and retarders) to the pockets of Virginians. When our enemies praise us, and then appeal to the basest of all our passions — cupidity — I ask Virginia gentlemen, if it is not high time for them to take such a position as will not subject themselves to the insult of Abolition laud

I have also a sweet morsel for those patriotic gentlemen who are doing all in their power to rend Virginia asunder by divided counsels.--The Hartford Courant, a paper which opposes Coercion and eulogizes Daniel Webster for "not denouncing South Carolina, but praising her," in the days of nullification, and so winning her over to the Union again — this paper says: "The fact is, that we of the North happen to be so situated that the best thing we can do is to do nothing, say nothing, threaten nothing, concede nothing; but just stand back, and let Virginia, Kentucky, and the other border slave States, settle this matter as they best can." So this is their game. Does any Virginian feel proud of playing into their hands? How no

I am compelled, in spite of myself, to laugh at the absurd way the Yankees treat the present troubles of the country. In this same paper. (the Hartford Courant,) the local editor states that "Messrs. Starr, Burkett & Co. have got the 'irrepressible conflict,' and are selling off their goods with a rush; " and, on turning to the advertisement of S., B. & Co., I find, "Tremendous Panic! among the Dry Goods, Carpets, and Paper Hangings. Can't keep them still — bound to secede. They will go at such prices." Have we much to hope of a people who will treat the most serious calamity that can befall a nation with levity like this?
