Fatal affair. --Mrs. Ruth Lee was shot and killed in Rockingham county, Va., by her husband, last week. She caught a pistol he had levelled at the breast of another man, and in the scuffle the charge was lodged in her body, killing her in a few hours. She was married only a few months.

y, if not from a want of supplies, for that of strategic purpose. But let the enemy remain here this winter and they will make a Gibraltar. Her hills and valleys will be, but an arsenal and depot for the concentration of arms, munitions of war, and soldiers. Having once completed the Kentucky and Knoxville railroad, and gathered in these supplies, all the combined armies of the Confederacy can't drive them out. They can then move with impunity into Western Virginia to the rear of Lee's army, move across into North Carolina, and cut our communication East and West, or they can have a strong garrison in East Tennessee, move down, connect with the armies of the West, and force our armies on Atlanta and Augusta. Let us yield no more territory to the enemy. It is a suicidal policy. Territory has been yielded in East Tennessee sufficient to furnish supplies annually to an army of 40,000 men. We hope for a brighter day for this fated country, and bide time for the result.

The Farmers and the army. The duty of supplying the army at liberal rates is one which it might be as well for the farmers of Virginia to consider from that fascinating point of view, their own interest. The question for them to decide is whether they will dispense liberally of their products to the defenders of their possessions, or whether they shall be overrun and laid waste, their estates destroyed, and their houses burned down over their heads by the advance of Meade's army, which will follow the falling back of Lee, a calamity that the failure of the farmers to respond liberally to the calls of their country may render inevitable. If the farmers of Virginia prefer the condition of the people of Culpeper, Norfolk, and New Orleans, to their present state, they have only to keep fast their grip on their corn and wheat, and their desires can be gratified.
