we may then legally, and with the approbation of the civilized world, knock him down too, if we be not disabled from doing so. But, after he had twitched our nose, or spit in our face, it would be an unheard of enormity, if we should let fly at him with the left, a la Heenan, and floor him. England, thus has subjugated for mere empire a hundred millions of people; Russia, Austria, and Prussia, who conquered and partitioned Poland; Spain, who utterly destroyed two civilized nations; and France, who made war against the world — would say we had done wrong if we struck our enemy except in retort; and even Lincoln and Seward would denounce us as savages. Because the Congress of the United States has as yet passed no general bill of confiscation, the refore, it is insisted by this class of legislative warriors, that we should pass none either; even though, as is the case, the Northern Executive and army have been engaged for more than a year in the work of actual confiscation.

dollars from a member of Wise's Legion, escaped from his place of confinement; and, after running a short distance, concealed himself in an old unoccupied house, where he was soon secured by the police. Captain Hunter, of the C. S. N., says he has never reported an enemy's vessel inside of Pamlico Sound, but only stated that he had counted twenty-odd vessels of all descriptions, including eight steamers, at anchor near Hatteras, while returning from his usual cruise of observation on the 6th and 7th inst. About twenty negroes made their escape Monday night from their owners living on the Tanner's Creek road, near this city. They stole a large fishing boat, and no doubt escaped to Fortress Monroe. I learn that Mr. Wm. H. Talbot has lost four; Captain Hancock, one R. H. Wilkins, one; W. W. Hawkins, two; D. Simmons, two; W. J. Denby, two; besides others, whose names and losses I cannot give. Some of these negroes are very valuable, and the loss falls heavily upon their owner

From Norfolk. a calm after the storm — harbor of Norfolk — future of Norfolk — the Pomone — negroes, &c., &c. [Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Norfolk, Jan. 29, 1862. Notwithstanding the dreary, damp, and cloudy weather yesterday, to-day is as charming as heart can reasonably desire. Such spring-like days will soon work a great change upon the face of Nature, if this balmy temperature and this bright, warm sunshine continue. The blue birds are already singing in the fields and among the leafless branches of the trees; spring flowers are lifting their heads above the ground, and the sward by the hill-side, close by the dancing rill, is already changing its dingy color to the rich hue of Nature, so pleasing to the eye. It is so calm that the whole surface of our wide and deep harbor resembles a vast miror. Occasionally a steamer passes along, and raises a few wavelets that go rippling and dancing to the shore, and sparkling in the sunshine like te

ago that a citizen of Portsmouth, named Bright, a member of the city police, had mysteriously disappeared. I learn that his dead body was found yesterday in a grove a very short distance from the limits of Portsmouth, and that it was mangled in a most shocking manner.
