east 30,000 negroes, the most valuable property that a Virginian can own. They have no negroes in Pennsylvania. Retaliation must therefore fall upon something else. And let it fall upon everything that constitutes property. A dutch farmer has no negroes; but he has horses that can be seized, grain that can be confiscated, cattle that can be killed, houses that can be burnt. He can be taken prisoner and sent to Libby's warehouse, as our friends in Fauquier, and Loudoun, and Culpeper, and Stafford, and Fredericksburg, and the Peninsula, have been sent to Lincoln's dungeons in the North. Let retaliation be complete, that the Yankees may learn that two can play at the game they have themselves commenced. 3d. By advancing into Pennsylvania with rapidity, our army can easily get possession of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, and break it down so thoroughly that it cannot be repaired in six months. They have already possession of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and the York Railro

He could lead him so far off that he could not get to his burrow.--He would inevitably rout him, and probably destroy his whole army. It was in this way that Hannibal brought the Consul Flaminius to battle at Thrasymene, and destroyed his whposition in which he cold give battle with advantage, and then he halted. By pursuing a similar course in Pennsylvania, Gen. Lee can compel McClellan to pursue him and fight him on his own terms. Whether such be the design of the movement into Penn

Our army in Maryland. The intelligence which we have received, thus far, from our army in Maryland, is meagre, unsatisfactory, and made up from Yankee papers. The mortal terror of the Yankees, however, affords ample proof that the blow has been struck in the proper place, and that, if properly followed up, it will not fail to tell.

What course General Lee designs to pursue; whether he will proceed immediately into Pennsylvania, or advance upon the Relay House, or at once march upon Baltimore, we have, of course, no means of determining. To us it appears, however, that the first-named enterprise would be that which a General would be most likely to undertake. 1st. The road lies most invitingly open. There are no regular soldiers on the route, and it would be a task of little difficulty to disperse the rabble of militia that might be brought to oppose him. 2d. The country is enormously rich. I abounds in fat cattle, cereals, horses, and mules. Our troops would liv

Whether such be the design of the movement into Pennsylvania, we know not; but, most assuredly, there is scarcely any severity wtion is so scanty that we cannot tell whether the incursion into Pennsylvania is to be supported, or whether the main object of the Confederat

be compelled to evacuate Washington. Whether the enemy would carry into execution his threat of burning Baltimore, in the event of its falling into our hands, it is difficult to say. He is savage enough and villain enough, beyond a doubt. But he knows that we have it in our power to retaliate, and it is to be hoped the authorities would not hesitate to do it.--He knows, besides, that a very large proportion of the population — among them many persons of great wealth — are friends of the Yankee Government. Sooner than disoblige these, we are inclined to think that Lincoln would give up the city, and trust to fortune for regaining it at some future day. The same thing may be said of Washington City. We cannot bring our minds to the belief that the Yankees, when compelled to evacuate it, will destroy even the public buildings, since such a measure would amount to a confession that the game was entirely up with them. Nevertheless, all the public buildings are, or were, undermine
