, 4th do. Sixty brave and patriotic sons of the South responded to the call, and no doubt our company will number one hundred in a few days. Our Captain leaves for Richmond to-day, for the purpose of procuring arms and uniforms. Our company is now anxiously awaiting a call, and will no doubt gladly respond. A Member. Washington College, Va., April 24th. It is a historical fact that the students of Washington College, (then Liberty Hall Academy,) in 1776, marched, with Rev. Wm. Graham at their head, to Rockfish Gap, in order to keep back Tarleton from invading West Virginia, and now they are as ready to keep back Lincoln and his hirelings from invading the soil of Virginia. To-day we organized a volunteer company, called "Liberty Hall Volunteers." The company numbers 60 men. Prof. Alex. L. Nelson (Professor of Mathematics) was elected Captain; Prof. J. J. White, 1st Lieutenant; John N. Lyle, of Christiansburg, Va., 2d Lieutenant, and Lewis Summers, (son of Hon. G. W

pool to N. York. Ship going down. (Great) confusion on board. Icebergs around us on every side. I know I cannot escape. I write the cause of our loss that friends may not live in suspense. The finder of this will please get it published. Wm. Graham." If we are right in our conjecture, the ship here named is the Pacific, one of the Collins line of steamers, which vessel left Liverpool on January 23, 1856, three days before the Persia, and has not since been heard of; and this slip of paperatives the idea that the person who could exhibit it in a moment of such supreme peril could possibly have mistaken the name of the vessel whose loss he has recorded. Then, again, we find from the records of the lost Pacific, that a person named Graham sailed in her from Liverpool on her ill-fated voyage, and in all human probability was on board at the time she was lost with all hands. This is the strongest point in the entire chain of evidence, for it connects the writer of the memorandum di

A wealthy "Copperhead" farmer, named William Graham, had promised to give one hundred dollars to the draft fund, in order to fihis farm, when, at some distance from it, they were suddenly ordered to halt by Graham, who heard of their intentions, and had armed himself with two revolvers and a and planted himself in a covert near Stow Corners. The cavalcade halted, when Graham fired and brought down one of the men with a shot in the left side. He immedianstantly. The young men, as they were defenceless, scattered and dashed away. Graham approached the man first shot, who was still living, and dispatched him with a shot in the forehead. A surgeon was summoned by the young men, but Graham stood over the corpses and would not allow him to come near, threatening to kill him if he sheriff of the county, with a posse, arrived from Akron, but on their approach, Graham ran, and was captured only after receiving a shot in the right arm, which compl
