Capt. Maury's Address. Flagrant war rages within our borders. The enemy has laid a tyrant's hand upon the green bosom of dear old Virginia. He is threatening her lovely fields with devastation; weak, aged, and defenceless women with outrage, and their protectors with ruin. A terrible crisis is upon our beloved Commonwealth. She is called upon to put forth all her energies; and while her sons are rushing to her defence, it becomes not her daughters to stand idle. Yielding to the impulties ever so small, will be thankfully received, if delivered at the Tredegar Iron Works, in this city, where it may be put into the furnace, reduced, and wrought into shape, or turned into shot and shell. Subscriptions in money, plate, or jewelry, should be sent to Mrs. R. H. Maury, Treasurer of the Association; if made in building materials, or tools, they should be sent to Capt. Farrand, Rocketts; and if in grain, or kind, to--; all in the city of Richmond. All papers please copy.

We need many such boats as the one contemplated.--There is no telling the disasters that will befall us in the delay of their construction.--Why so much apathy among your princely merchants and elsewhere? Be not deceived — this contest cannot be carried on without individual sacrifices, and whilst so many can command thousands upon thousands to speculate in sugar, tobacco, cotton, bacon
