From Norfolk. [Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Norfolk, Va., Aug. 22, 1861. The Spanish Consul at this place, Duncan Robertson, Esq., went down to the Roads under a flag of truce, yesterday morning, to understand something about the arrival of the frigate mentioned in yesterday's letter. The officer from the Fort who met the flag of once informed Mr. Robertson that she was a Dutch, and not a Spanish or French frigate, as before stated, and that she had left the Point and gone seaward. It is probable she put into that port on account of the heavy weather outside — a belief to which we incline, after learning her early departure. Last night, about 11 o'clock, a fire was discovered in the tailor store of Farant, Lester & Co., on Main street, which, if not for the presence of our firemen, would probably have burned a long row of buildings. The origin of the fire, we understand, was through negligence in some of the workmen, when leaving the establishment, in le

hless invaders from their soil. It is their duty to punish the enemy, and make him feel their power and know their resources. To have the ability to perform this duty, we must see than our soldiers are cared for and made efficient. It will warm the soldier's heart to know the old Commonwealth is interested in his welfare, and is busying herself in earing for him. It will nerve the patriot arm to feel that it has a watchful eye at home, mindful of all its wants and ready to supply them. Feeling that this appeal from the Executive in favor of our volunteers will be responded to fully and promptly by a generous people, I confidently await the result. Given under my hand, at Richmond, this 22d day of August, 1861, and in the eighty-sixth year of the Commonwealth. John Letcher. N. B.--Manufacturers of cloths in Virginia will please furnish the Executive with samples of such cloths as they may be able to manufacture and the quantity they can furnish, with the price demanded.
