of his contemptible ambition. His motive, in the present instance, is as transparent as glass.--He will meet his reward. Virginia's long silence has provoked the condemnation of both Northern and Southern men. A distinguished man, formerly a Senator from one of the Northern States, said to an acquaintance of mine, "We always knew that Virginians were sluggish and low-spirited. Your recent course shows that you can never be aroused until we come down and prick you with the bayonet. John Brown speared you into a momentary wakefulness. You soon sunk back into sleep. Sleep on now, and the first thing you know you'll be squeezed like an orange, until you are perfectly dry." Our members have been tardy in acquainting the people with the imminency of danger — the impossibility of peace. It gives me pleasure to state that the member from your district, Mr. Dejarnette, has been less derelict than the rest. Ten days ago a paper was drawn up in his room while I was present, sett

known here, viz., that Gen. Scott is in favor of immediate force, even to the extent of sending large bodies of Federal troops into all of the Southern States. As a military man, it is natural he should urge strict obedience to the government; and, having lived so long in the North, his sympathies are enlisted there, rather than on the side of his native State and the South. Civil war is as certain, in my judgment, as anything in the future can be. I had an interview last evening with Lovejoy, the pro slavery brother of the abolitionist of that name. He is one of the few Northern men who have studied the subject of slavery thoroughly. His views go the full length of any Southern man's. He says we of the South are a purer people than the North, and that our form of society ensures at once a higher morality and a more stable government. How war is to be averted, he cannot tell. The abolitionists will not yield; the South cannot and ought not to abandon its rights. Deprecating

From Washington. [special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Washington, Dec. 28, 1860. It is believed that Col. Anderson acted under orders from Gen. Scott; but this is denied by the General and the Administration, also. One thing is well known here, viz., that Gen. Scott is in favor of immediate force, even to the extent of sending large bodies of Federal troops into all of the Southern States. As a military man, it is natural he should urge strict obedience to the government; and, having lived so long in the North, his sympathies are enlisted there, rather than on the side of his native State and the South.
