At the beginning of secession, Virginia hud one Cabinet Minister who was a secessionist, the Secretary of .War, John B. Floyd, He is dead. She had two foreign Ministers who were secessionists, lion. R. K. Meade and Jolla M. Daniel. Both are dead. Her two Senators, Hunter and Mason, were se• cessionists--one is a- prisoner, the other an .exile. Her oldest and most persistent, and among her most influential citizens who sup ported secession•, and the man who fired the first gun at Sumpter, was Edmund Ruffin, He is dead. The recognized leaders of the secessionists in the State Convention were George W. Randolph and ex President Ty ler. Randolph is dying • abroad; Tyler is dead. She had three newspapers conspicu ously devoted to secession, the Richmond Inquirer, the Richmond Examiner,, and the Norfolk Argus. The journals are all extinct and the leading spirits of all—Wise, Daniels, and Lamb—are dead. In brief we are told, there '"are not now ten men of conspicuous prominence is the secession movement of January 1801, who remain to exercise—if they possess the desire—their influence to thwart the movement of the people toward loyalty and reunion." THE WADE AND DAVIS MANIFESTO.- Carpenter, the artist, in his reminiscences of Mr..

"It is not worth fretting about," said the President, "it reminds me of an old acquaintance, who, having a son of a scientific turn, bought him a microscope. The boy went around experimenting with his glass upon evsrything that came in his way. One day, at the dinner table, hisfath er took up a piece of cheese. "Don't eat that, father," said the boy, "it is full of wrig glers." "My son," replied• the old gentle. taking s et the same time, a huge bite; "let 'em wriggle: I can stand it if they can."
