Virginius. Charleston, May 17, 1861. I have it on better authority than you generally get, that old "Tureen" (Scott,) and Lincoln will, on Tuesday or Wednesday next, make an attempt on Harper's Ferry, Alexandria, Fredericksburg, Urbana, and Tappahannock on the Rappahannock, and at Norfolk, and on the York river, merely to divert voters from the polls. I hope, however, that every voter in the State may determine to go to the polls and vote, if he never gets back home alive. Let him go with his ticket in one hand and the sword in the other, and vote your noble old State out of a Union with men whom you can never live except in degradation.

Taylor, a Baptist minister of no small repute, and a son-in-law, Rev. Mr. Prichard, of Wilmington, N. C. These gentlemen were returning from Savannah, where the denomination had been holding their biennial Convention, and in which convocation they adopted certain resolutions expressive of the feelings of the denomination on our political difficulties. These resolutions ought to be read by every Southern man and woman, and, if possible, by every man and woman professing Christianity at the North, as a model of expression of a Christian convocation of the ministry of the "Prince of Peace."

And these are the material, and this the errand, that these holy men of God, these saints of the latter-day glory, these high priests of the quill and white cravat, set on us, and pat upon the back and bid "God speed" in the glorious work of murder, robbery, arson and rape, among whom is that saintly fiend, Henry Ward Beecher, of the Puritanic pandemonium of Brooklyn, and that other God-loving saint who presides over the New York Examiner, the Right Rev.
