Patriotism of the Virginia ladies.
--By a notice in yesterday's Dispatch, the reader has seen the ladies of Essex are all in favor of Southern rights, and, of course, for going right straight out of the present Yankee Union.

We sincerely trust that those faithless members, on their return home, will receive from their better-halves the treatment which Old Horace invoked upon his friend, Mæmaecenas, in case he should repeat the experiment of feeding a guest upon garlic:
