ave been presented in the several skirmishes and some important conflicts, and other defeated movements, in the Northwestern part of Virginia. In this region, beginning with the earliest and most culpable neglect by our State authorities, by which the enemy was permitted to take and keep possession of the two great railroads entering that region from the Ohio — through the consequent disastrous defeats of our forces under the imbecile Porterfield, and still worse under the brave and capable Pegram and Garnett — to the latest event, the unavoidable retreat of Gen. Wise--all have been one unchanging series of disasters. And various in kind as have been these disasters, and their immediate or special causes, there is one great and abiding cause for all — in the disaffection of a large portion of the residents to the Southern cause, and the natural features of the country, which enable the zealous and active residents successfully to oppose and to overcome any inactive military force to <

the zealous and active residents successfully to oppose and to overcome any inactive military force to which they are heartily and earnestly opposed. Instead of continuing to oppose by military invasion, and attempting to crush, this rebellion of the Virginia tories and traitors, (who give all the strength of the Northern armies,) I would respectfully suggest a different policy, which would serve, safely and effectually, to assail, and gradually and surely to extinguish, (unless in the "Pan-Handle,") the existing disposition of the residents to favor the desposic and oppressive Northern power, and to oppose, as now through ignorance, the benefits of union with Virginia and the Southern Confederacy. The policy proposed is the withdrawing of our armies and armaments from the whole of the disaffected and contaminated region between the Alleghany Mountains and the Ohio River — to guard the Alleghany passes, and constantly to threaten the region in question, but without seriousl

ts and Tories, and even many now active traitors, would become heartily sickened with Northern rule and fraternization, and be more ready to break out in insurrection against the Northern power than to aid, or even to submit to it. Then would be our time to aid the popular impulse, instead of vainly opposing it by arms, as heretofore. Then, supporting, and supported by the restored proper understanding of self-interest of the now deceived inhabitants — and the always sound patriotism of the loyal and true — it will be as easy and cert in to subdue and subject the persistent tories and traitors of the Northwestern counties, as it has been, and still will be, difficult, by the military and yet impotent policy heretofore pursued by the authorities of Virginia and of the Confederate States. Then will be the time for us to crush and to punish the unyielding traitors and rebels — to pardon the repentant, and to reward the always true and previously suffering patriots. Peter the Her

The policy proposed is the withdrawing of our armies and armaments from the whole of the disaffected and contaminated region between the Alleghany Mountains and the Ohio River — to guard the Alleghany passes, and constantly to threaten the region in question, but without seriously assailing it, so as to compete the Lincoln Government to retain therein some thirty thousand or forty thousand men, as costly and burdensome garrisons of their temporary conquest. These garrisons, by their military license and outrages, would oppress the whole occupied country, and their friends as well as foes. The heavy system of taxation now about to be imposed on all the possesse
F. W. Pickens (search for this): article 1
Important disclosures --We publish this morning some disclosures relative to the evacuation of Fort Sumter, which exhibit in a glaring light the baroness of the Lincoln dynasty at Washington, and the utter prestitution of the functions of Government. There is no doubt about the genuinences of the article. Gov. Pickens is not the man to place such a paper before the world, unless it were indeed authentic. The Columbia Guardian, from which it is copied, well remarks that a day of retribution will surely come to such a heartless and corrupt Government. God still reigns, and one of His leading attributes is justice. Already throughout this whole struggle we have unmistakable evidences that the arm of God is raised against the usurper, and the day is not distant, we predict, when it will fall and crush out from the high places, in which, through unhallowed means, they have seated themselves, a set of the most unscrupulous rulers ever any people were cared with.
