Ominous.

A ‘"Manassas Station"’ correspondent of the Richmond Enquirer says:

‘ A sailor from one of the ships, in attempting to place an American flag upon the top of the pole at the market-house, fell and killed himself. The death of the man who removed the Southern flag, and the man who attempted to raise the United States flag, in a State which had severed its connection with the Federal Government, constitute a curious, and may we not hope, an instructing coincidence.
