What Lincoln is doing in Northwestern Virginia. --It seems to be clear that the Lincoln Government has organized a new United States District Court in Northwestern Virginia, appointing some traitor in place of Judge Brockenbrough, and that this Court has instructed its grand jury to indict, and they have accordingly indicted, several hundred worthy citizens of that region for treason. Among those thus branded as traitors by the abominable Lincoln dynasty, we may mention the venerable Gen. T. S. Haymond, of Marion county, who is now in this city, and a number of other refugees from that section. Col. W. J. Willey is also under the ban. So, also, are many worthy and loyal Virginians whose circumstances would not allow them to leave home. These cases call with a lond voice upon the Confederate Government to do all in its power to extend its authority over that portion of our State. Let Rosencranz, Reynolds, and their followers, aiders, and abettors, be expelled by a powerful ar

rain last night tells us that the Federals succeeded, in the fog of Wednesday night, in planting buoys at the mouth of Aquia Creek, within about a mile of our batteries. The pickets heard a noise and fired, but were unable to see what was going on, and to hear but imperfectly. A gentleman from King George told us yesterday that a landing was expected at Matthias, and that Cook's battery was yesterday seat to that point; and the conductor of the train last night informed us that Colonel Brockenbrough's regiment had sent their baggage to this place, preparatory to marching to the same point. We should not be surprised if the Federals should essay fight at once, for with them it is now or never. Engagement at Port Royal — a Yankee Reconnaissance, and what came of it — severe cannonade. Gardner's Corner, via Pocotaligo, S. C., December 19.--About half past 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon one of the enemy's gunboats passed by Port Royal Ferry. Our batteries opened fire upon

on them, killing three, including a lieutenant, and wounded seven. Seeing himself almost surrounded by the Yankee cavalry, he fell back to Berea camp, where was Col. Lee with a part of four companies of cavalry, numbering in the aggregate 260 men, about one-half of whom were raw recruits and badly armed. Col. Lee then fell back to within one mile-of-Falmouth. It then being after dark, the men picketed their horses and rested. Col. Lee sent to Fredericksburg and got four companies of Col. Brockenbrough's regiment, who joined us about 10 P. M. He then, after posting a few pickets, sent scouting parties to Berea, who reported the enemy there; so, about 12 o'clock P. M., Col Lee had the fences on the road in rear of us pulled down and made rail pens across the road in front of us. He then placed two companies of infantry on either side of the road, commanding a crossfire on the approaching road, and a company of cavalry immediately in rear of them, and threw out one company to the right

eers, was cut off near Middle-town, and after four days fatigue and marching arrived here, by way of Hancock, in company with Colonel DeForrest and Captains Hampton and Collis, with their command. Nine rebel prisoners of war, captured this morning by our cavalry, have just been brought into town. Some indignation was exhibited by our soldiers and Union citizens as the prisoners appeared, but all demonstrations of disrespect were suppressed by Gen Hatch. Dr. Kline, a surgeon of Brockenbrough's rebel battery, who was captured on Saturday, has been paroled, and ordered to report at Washington. He is from Loudoun county, near Snickersville. The full list of killed, wounded and missing are completed with some few exceptions.-- Considering all the circumstances, and the disorganization attendant on the retreat, great credit is due to Assistant Adjutant-General Wilkins, of Gen. Williams's staff, as well as the brigade and regimental officers. General, Williams's official re

of engineering, and published an abstruse book on his science. Among his many schemes, advocated with great plausibility was the proposition for a ship canal and basin at this place, about the year 1835. The canal to be cut from the foot of the falls across the Falls Plantation, to Warwick bar; the dam to be built across the river, about Mayo's bridge. This proposition was discussed so plausibly by him that some of the wisest and most sagacious men of the city approved it, including Dr. Brockenbrough, Richard Anderson, the Gwathmeys, and others, men of controlling influence. But the project did not long survive — a little reflection caused its abandonment, we believe, by all but the gentleman who proposed it. Another suggestion, of much greater magnitude and far more visionary, was that by which he proposed to make the tributaries of the Ohio river in Western Virginia reservoirs for the supplying of that river with water for navigation during the dry season of summer. He proposed
