Despotion in Alexandria.the right of prayer denied, The following facts are communicated to the Baltimore Exchange, by an Alexandria correspondent. The outrage is said to have created in tense excitement there: Alexandria, Va., July 8. To a people once accustomed to enjoy the fullest liberty, oppression goes hard. Our sins against the assumed power of Abraham Lincoln have been most heavily visited upon us, and deep is the wound inflicted upon the people by the iron heel of despotism. Daily are the cords tightened, and daily are we made to feel the authority of kind "protectors."--The Northern arms never meet with the slightest reverse — never run afoul of a pigpen, or a masked battery — that our community is not made to feel deeply the wrong that has been done, in daring to obstruct the passage of our "protectors" on their journey to Richmond. Yesterday the cup of our humiliation was filled to the brim, and an insult offered to humanity and Christianity, which

This action of the Rangers is credited through the Northern journals as a peculiar mode of fighting The Message does not excite any comment in this city, the points set forth therein being already exhausted by the Northern newspapers. Even the partizans of the Administration, many of them, studiously avoid arguing many palpable weaknesses contained in the document. Washington, July 8.--It is ascertained that the new military department, composed of the State of Missouri and all the Territory West of the Rocky Mountains, is to be under the command of Maj. Gen. Fremont. Yesterday a party of five men, belonging to Col. Clarke's Mozart (N. Y. city) Regiment, went into the lager beer shop of a Frenchman, on the island near the Capitol, and shortly after were all seized with pains indicating poison. Three have since died, and the other two are not expected to live.

o redeem the reputation of the company. After considering the case, the General acceded to the desire, and the arms were restored. Lieut. Stratton and his guilty friends go home in disgrace. An official report from Col. Tyler, dated this morning, at Weston, states that six of his men surprised sixteen mounted men, in camp, between Weston and Bulltown, yesterday, and took six of them, with their arms and horses prisoners. They will be sent to Columbia. The same blatherskite correspondent telegraphed on the 8th of July, from Buckhannon that "a courier arrived from Webster, reports that four companies of the 19th Ohio Regiment, at Glenville, about 40 miles distant to the Southwest, are besieged by a picked Regiment of Virginians and 1,500 militia under O. Jennings Wise." It will be seen, by reference to our telegraph column, that a report afterwards reached Cincinnati that Capt. Wise had captured a battalion or so of Hessians at Glenville. We hope this may prove true.

A brave woman. --We learn that when the Slote was captured, and the men from the Mohawk went to take down the Confederate flag, Mrs. Col. D. P. Holland rushing to and seizing it, wrapped it around her and dared them to touch it, protesting that she herself would die before it should be furied. Having presence of mind to burn the sloop's papers, when Mrs H. was asked for them she pointed to the stove. An she passed Fort William with the flag given to the breeze, a salute of one gun was fired. Long may she live to see the people of the South enjoy all the blessings of civil and religious liberty, under the ample folds of the Stars and Bars.--Tallahassee News, July 8.

We shall advance as soon as intelligence is received from McClelian's column, which is now moving up from Beverly. Beelington, Va., July 8, P. M.--There has been sharp skirmishing all day on the wooded knoll to the left of Beelington, and along the line occupied by the Ohio 14th. Our battery threw several shells and a few rounds of grape and canister into the enemy, supposed to be one thousand strong, who yet hold the knoll. About fifty of the Indiana 9th and 6th, and Ohio 14th, rallied and rushed into the woods as the shell burst and shot down a number of the rebels, who in turn rallied strongly and drove them back, killing
