His eye kindled, his pale face flushed, and feebly raising his remaining arm above his head, he exclaimed, in clear, firm tones. "Not whiles I have another arm with which to strike a blow in our glorious cause" Noble sentiment, and nobly expressed! Regarding the funeral of young Dougherty, we will append the following notice, contained in the N. Y. Times, of August 21; "An event took place in Norfolk yesterday which many choose to look upon indifferently, but which all loyal people here regret exceedingly.--The Secessionists of Norfolk, who, beyond all question, have been every day becoming more rampant and defiant during the last two or three months, had a grand opportunity yesterday of exhibiting the intensity of their feelings and open sympathy for our enemies.

Affairs in Norfolk. [correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Richmond Sept. 19. From a lady but just arrived from Norfolk, we gain the following account of the present state of affairs in that city: Within the last few wash a very striking change has taken place in the aspect of the people. The countenance of the citizens are radiant. They greet each other with joyous armies and nearly congratulatory shakes of the hand, while the Yankees, on the contrary, slink by with sullen, scowling, and anxious faces. By order of Gen Vicle, guards have been placed at the doors of the hotels and at the corners of the streets, and citizens are forbidden to assemble on the streets in groups of more than three. Houses have been searched for concealed arms and Confederate flags. Yet on the whole, under the administration of Gen. Vicle the Yankee rule is much milder than it might be. Gen. V.'s policy is rather conciliatory than otherwise — decidedly more so than that of the present

On Saturday, accordingly, the following telegraphic dispatch was received: "Mr. J. G. D.--Dear Sir: C. H. Dougherty is dead. If his remains are sent to Norfolk, will the expenses be defrayed? Surgeon Brownson." The answer immediately returned was. "Send the body by the early boat. I will defray all expenses." Accordingly, at 11 o'clock, the gentleman repaired to the boat, and, in answer to his inquiry, the Captain replied very gruffly that he "knew nothing about any dead Confederates. " A second dispatch was then sent, and yet a third--no answer being returned. A note was then received by Mr. G., from the Provost Marshal, which ran thus: "Sir — If the body of C. H. Dougherty is forwarded t

otherwise — decidedly more so than that of the present Provost Marshal, Capt. Leibenan, whose harsh measures and uncourteous manner (especially to the ladies) render him very unpopular.

Under his administration justice was impartially dispensed, and his sympathies and kind services were easily enlisted in behalf of the distressed. The writer of this article knew him well, and though standing politically opposed as an enemy, could not but accord him the esteem and regard which his qualities as an honorable and kind hearted gentleman demanded from all who were capable of appreciating such, whether in friend or foe.

"It was on the occasion of the burial of a private named Dougherty, of the Third Alabama Regiment. The funeral ceremony took place at the church of St. Paul's, where Rev. O. Keerson officiated amid a great crowd, chiefly of women. The body was afterwards conducted to the cemetery, attended by a large concourse of people. It is stated.--I know not how truly — that a prominent rebel citizen having seen Gen.
