shall squat and trade upon thy lovely plains, thy quiet valleys, and thy mountain summits. But, it cannot be-- "Must we but weep o'er days more blest ! Must we but blush ! Our Fathers Bled ! Earth ! render back form out thy breast, A remant of our Spartan dead ! Of the three hundred, grant but three, To make a new Thermopylaeæ !" Our young men are already rallying beneath that flag of which we have before spoken.--Two sons of Hampton were recently in commission at Fort Barrancas, Fla.; two have since gone to the sunny South, to seek service in the army of the Confederate States; one Lieutenant in the United States army, and one Midshipman in the navy, have resigned, to fight the battles of the ever-glorious seven, and other are preparing to imitate their noble example. It is but just to add that all of these chivalrous soldiers are former students of the Hampton Academy, and one Professor in that institution but awaits the trumpet's sound to hurry to the conflict.

The meeting was organized by calling Cary S. Jones, Esq., to the Chari, and appointing Thomas Latimer as Secretary, both Old Line Whigs, who were never known to give a Democratic vote. The Chairman, (who, by the way, was recently put down, in his absence, among a list of delegates appointed by a small gathering of "Conservatives," [?] the Saturday before, after having positively refused to preside over their meeting, having eloquently explained the object which convened the dense mass of people before him, stating that he had been a Union man until that misshapen monster who now occupies the seat once graced by a Was

Phillips, named respectively in honor of our great county man, George Wythe; the great leader of accession in 176, George Washington, who vindicated the right of seted it, as it flung its folds to the breeze; "And many an eye danced to see That banner in the sky." The welkin rang with loud calls for "Hope," "Hope," to which that sweetest of Virginia poets gracefully responded. Messrs. Tabb, Willis, and Lee, were subsequently called upon, and clothing "thoughts that breathe" in "words that burn," they pledged themselves to the work of placing the star of Virginia on its azure folds.

For, "Tis the Flag of the South, which shall forever remain, To light us to Freedom and Glory again." The guillotine has already commenced its work in the decapitation of incumbent of Federal office, and the appointment of Union (?) men to fill their places. But one vacancy existed, occasioned by the resignation of John B. Cary, Esq., as Surveyor of the Port, who, declining to retain office under a Black Republican ruler, resigned before the 4th March. It is fair to presume that those who have sought the crumbs of Federal office from Salmon P. Chase, of Wirt memory, have acted upon the principle that "to the victors belong the spoils." But a day of reckoning will surely come, when those in Virginia who seek affiliation with the Black Republicans, and their "aiders and abettors," will be consigned to merited obli

Gilmer, in 1840, to the endorsation of the Helper Book, and his speech at St. Paul, Minnesota, has been one illustrious series of disinterested friendship and fraternal affection for the South. We see the manifestation of this same brotherly feeling in the appointment of Chas. Francis Adams and Wm. L.
