Seizure of A map.--Months ago Governor Letcher caused surveys to be carefully made for a military map of Virginia.
The memoranda and detached plans were sent to a German employed in the Coast Survey Office, to be engraved.
He recommended forwarding them to New York.
A few maps were engraved, and sent with the plate and original materials toward Richmond, necessarily through Washington, where the Government took charge of them.--Nv.
