eeks in our city, devoting his time and faculties in a most useful way, and we doubt if he can much longer be kept from a closer observation of the enemy, and a participation in the actual conflict. General Waul, of Texas, is likewise in Richmond, forwarding the interests of the people of his State, who are desirous of being allowed a full participation in the war. Hon. Henry Marshall, delegate from Louisiana, has also been in Virginia for some time; and Ex-Senator Chestnut, of South Carolina, being attached to the staff of Gen. Beauregard, is at his pest with that distinguished officer. There may be members of the delegations from other States, whose presence has escaped our observation. There is no one in the Confederacy who cannot contribute in some way to the success of our cause, but it is the peculiar duty of our loading men to show the way; and we are glad to make mention of their readiness to take their full share of the danger as well as of the honors attached

months ago, the functions of the Federal Government were found to be generally suspended within the several States of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Florida, excepting those only of the Post-Office Department. Withiepting only Forts Pickens, Taylor and Jefferson, on and near the Florida coast, and Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor, South Carolina. The forts thus seized had been put in improved condition, new ones had been built, and armed forces had been orved to send it forward. As had been intended in this contingency, it was also resolved to notify the Governor of South Carolina that he might expect an attempt would be made to provision the fort, and that if the attempt should not be resisted, well be questioned whether there is to-day a majority of the legally qualified voters of any State, except, perhaps, South Carolina, in favor of disunion. There is much reason to believe that the Union men are in the majority in many, if not in eve

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.grand dress parade of Hampton's Legion, from South Carolina. Camp Hampton, July 5th. Col. Hampton having arrived yesterday with the balance of his Legion, assumed command this afternoon at the first grand dress parade of the Legion, since its organization. All the field officers were present and acting in their respective capacities. The names of the companies and their captains are as follows: The Washington Light Infantry, Capt. Connor; the Manning Guards, Capt. Manning; the Bogeman Guards, Capt. Bogeman; the Brooks Troop, Capt. Jannean; the Edgefield Huzzas, Capt. Batler; the Beaufort Troop, Capt. Scriven. The Legion is composed of the very finest and noblest blood of South Carolina; the men generally are intellectual, and of the highest moral stamp; the field officers are a set of the best looking men the Southern Confederacy can produce. In fine, the Legion is a body of men than which no prouder, no nobler can be foun

r a few weeks and await the return of his command, who are in the meantime to enjoy a brief visit to their homes. Too much praise cannot be awarded to Col. Gregg and the chivalrous, self-sacrificing spirits he has the honor to lead. They have always been the first to take the field in their country's cause — and they delight to be in the thickest of the fight, Col. Gregg himself returned from the Mexican war with a high reputation as a commander, and the deeds of valor performed by the South Carolina troops in that war covered the State with imperishable renown. We have heard it said, and have no reason to doubt, that it proceeded from high authority, that Colonel Gregg has been looked upon as one of the most efficient and competent commanding officers in the department of the Potomac, and his men as the most thoroughly disciplined and effective body of men on the field. They have had but one brush with the enemy-- that at Vienna. For their own sakes, we almost wish a cessatio

Running the blockade. --The South Carolina schooner Petrel, E O Murden commanding, left South Edisto on Saturday afternoon, at three o'clock; passed North Edisto at 4 o'clock, and made Stono at 5.30 P. M. The officers report that they saw in sight two men-of-war, one a large man-of-war ship and the other a bark-rigged vessel. These were seen about 20 miles to the Northeast of Charleston bar. The Petrel ran in over the bar, passing the blockaders, was brought to by a shot from Fort Sumter, when nearly abreast of Fort Johnson, and a few moments afterwards was hailed with another shot from Fort Moultrie. This occurred about 8 o' clock on Saturday evening, and no doubt gave rise to the current rumor, that a boat from the blockading vessels, in attempting a landing, had been fired at from Sumter. The Petrel anchored in the stream, off the battery yesterday morning, giving a salute as she dropped anchor. An officer on board reports the blockading vessels on Sunday morning immediate
