shall we say, then, of men who in a war of defence against invasion, when their own homes are threatened with devastation, when the hand is raised to crush to the earth the Virginia that gave them birth, refuse to come to her aid, or even assist the assassin in his bloody work? We never heard of but one Yankee (Benedict Arnold) who was not a gentleman in comparison with Carlile & Co. It must be admitted that Virginia has been peculiarly unfortunate in giving birth to Winfield Scott and John C. Fremont, but they were not citizens at the time of her secession, and the latter is at the best an estray and cross-breed, upon whom she has no peculiar claims. There is no glory, however, without its drawback; the sun even has its dark spots; the most beautiful climes are infected with dangerous serpents, disgusting vermin and fatal diseases.

But the idea is held out that, next winter, the United States Government may be, by some means, in possession of New Orleans, and other cotton depots, when the cotton trade can be re-opened to all the world, and at prices highly remunerative to the cotton growers, factors, &c. Rumored Changes. A special dispatch from Washington, July 3, to the Cincinnati Enquirer, says: Fremont will assume command of all the army in Western Virginia, relieving Generals Patterson and McClellan. The Government is dissatisfied with General Patterson. He has twenty-two thousand men, and does nothing. They say that he should have occupied Lynchburg by this time, General McClellan will be relieved simply that he may give his whole attention to the division north of the Ohio, and to Missouri. The Government is losing confidence in General Scott. His health is very bad, having a
