To the Lceislature of Wejl Va. GsMLKxtx: ? Many things #ro Dow engaging your attention. The people ore expecting much at your hands; jidiI they are confidently waiting for yoa^io throw off nil the old influences wwiph bore hitherto held themselves to a peo ple which were in no way of them. It seemed to be the policy of their recent masters bf the East, to keep tlio people of the West in ignorance,?all the en actments of Richmond bear the impress of this policy. Unlike a government seeking the enlightenment ol its people, it withheld from them important knowl edge, the laws by which they were to be governed. West Virginia to day wants and do mands of jou the rcverso of all this.? ? The u oh oily rebellion now rasing in the land, has opened the eyes of her people. While they trusted to their leaders their , all, ruin lias come upon them. Now, tboy will improve ly the terrible lesson,1 and instead of their officers being their j masters, they will be held as the servants of the people. The people will know wha their servants are, and what they ore doing, and how they do. They want to know of you gentlemen of the Legis lature, what you are doing?they want the laws you make published to them, that they may see and know and Judge. In behalf of the pcnplo, therefore, we ask you to have all the laws published in the loyalnewspapers of the Stale. The Laws Again. Why it is thero is so much hostility, in the House of Delegates, to llio publi cation of thu laws passed by our Legis lature, in the loyal newspapers of the State, is really a mystery lo us. They certainly do not desire to oppose the wishes and interests of their constitu ents; vc it would seem so, when it ii known that they refused to tako up the Senate's resolution to appoint a commit-, tee composed of the members of both Houses, lo determine the propriety of! having the laws published as above.? They cancortainly nut be deterred from ' the passage of such an act on account of j the i.eptnte of publication, for it will not j require fine cenli from each tax payer to delrav the entire expun^o of publication. Who is there in West Va. who would not give at least five times that amount to have our lows published? But, may be, they are like Carlde was on this subject when he was a member of the Wheeling Convention. He opposed the publication of the laws on thu ground that it would create a 'newspaper specu j lationl' Hut, mark his course; As soon as he became U. S. Senator, the j first thing he did was to establish ?> j uewspnper at Clarksburg, and the next st.-p he takes it to stcure the publication J of the United States laws ? matter cer tainly more foreign to the interests of. West Virginia than their own local laws. Hut, then, Carlilc hod concluded to go into the 'Speculation!' Now, gen-1 tlenien delegates, oro you going to fol-1 low in (he footstep of this illustrious in | dividual? Ifso.wohave nothing more to soy. But, really, gentlemen, 'show J your bond,' that your constituents may know what you are after. They aro in- j terested in this matter.?[Ritchie l'ress XfTNearly three hundred refugee ; Tennesseeans arrived at Lexington on Wednesday, under charge of Col. Line, after a terrible journey of nearly two weeks in the mountains. In Powell's Valley a large rebel foree of cavalry at tacked them, and though but a part of, the fugitives were armed,' they rushed upon their assailants with e yell, and, cutting a passage through them com pelled them to retreat. The rebels how ever, corrieu off sixty or severity of the T?nncssenns os prisoners, who were loo tnuoh exhausted by fatigue and hunger lo make any resistance. On Tuesday another largo body of those sorely afll c ted Union-loving martyrs reached Lex ington, and they nre coming in contin i uolly. They are entirely destitute, with bare bends and feet. Old men with sil ver hair, and boys with the curly flaxen locks of youth, ore among them, all hav ing left their homes to escape the mer ciless rebel conscription &3T Doctor Trumbull, of Liverpool, stales that the sulphate of nnilino is a new and powerful remedy for nervous diseases, such as St. Vitus' dance.

Jt?TA man was lately drnficd in Tilth, Muitio, by the tume of Johnson Ilell, The Disaffection in Noutb-Caroliua. The Rileigh {N. C.) Slnndurd of ibe 2-lth ult., has a severe article in reply to 0110 attackingTh tlje Richmond Ennui rer, tn which the latter said that if the Standard represented "tho opinion of its state, then the state ought to (to out of the Confederacy and m*kc submission on J13,own account," To ibis the editor of the Standard replies, that tho views of his paper in favor of peace "are those of at least two thirds of the people of P>orlh Carolina ' and, by way of reply to the suggestion that tho state ought to quit the Confederacy, (toes on lo say: 'huppose this slate, thus invited to ff? ?u'> had not gone in, where would the Confederacy have been to-Jny?? Whoro would tho cotton states have been? Where would Virginia have Been? Ovetrun and trampled down.? Hichmonri would have been long since ; in the ban Is of tho enemy, and tho stales south of us would have boen occupied at every point and their people crushed ' into the earth. North Carolina troops saved Richmond when assailed by Mo Clellan; they won the battle of Chan, collorsville; and daring the recent move ment on Pennsylvania they defended nichmond under Gen. Hill. Our poo pie and troop3 Lave done more for vir ginia and the cotton 'Statos than they huvo done for themselves. And now, be cause they do not act in such a wny as to please the Richmond Enquirer in all respects, they are invited to take them selves out of the Confederacy! They will do so if they please, in their own Rood timo. They will not ba hurried nor retarded by thoir enemies." 1 he Standard concludes its article? which has some significance from tho apparent consciousness of popular sym pathy which characterizes it?with the following remarkable language: ? Does not our critic know that in tho event of being overrun and conquered by tho enemy, reconstruction would bo impossible? JWlic not know that Mr. Lincoln would soy. "Oenilemen, you cannot reconstruct (hat wlrioh you have not destroyed. Indeed you Inve never been out of tho Union. You thought you were, bu; you wuro mista ken. Resume your duties as members of the Union, on a fooling with the most favored Stales? Wo lell him that we have been, and still are, devoled lo the cause of independence;?but, at we sla te I in an article on the subject of peace, we fear I hut the chances arc against us. We did not make those chanous and we ennno^change them. We'are ties pondent. but we arc not in despair. Wo lell (he people llio truth, and for this we are censured. We should feel the hu miliation of a restoration to the old gov. ernment at profoundly and acutely as tho editor of the Register; but if the people of this Stale, with subjugation or restoration staring them in the face as alternatives, should sidly and reluctant ly accept the latter, it would not bo in our power lo prevent it, even if wo would."

Church, preached at tho 'Fulton Creek Meeting House,' in the edge of Dela ware county, for a brother minister of the same Church, Rev. T. B. Graham. It was expected llut some disturbance would occur, as the Butternuts of the neighborhood had notified Mr. Graham by letter that he ''could not preach at that place any more;" ond to prevent violence, quite a number of Union men from the vicinity of Rich wood accompa nied the two ministers to their place of appointment. A large concourse ofpeo pie were assembled, among whom were a number of persons wearing emblems of disloyalty. After the services, as Captain Geer stopped from the door of tho house, he met a man having on one of theso em blems.and stopped to ask what ho meant by wearing it. Without answering the question, (he Butternut withdrew in tho crowd, and at that moment another ad vanced with a knife and slruck n blow at the Caplain, which was evidently iuten - ded to enter his neck, but he parried it in part, nnd the knife entered his face within an inch of his eye, Captain Geer then knooked the fellow down, and pro ceeded forcibly to punish him, when a third Butternut stabbed the Capt. badlv with a bowie knife. Tho blow was aimed al tho heart, but the ruffian's stroke being misdirected by tho josllioc of the people, it took effeot on the inside of tho arm, immediately below the axilla making a gash to tho bone, ond about three Inchon in length.

The Detroit Tribune of tho 1 Jth inst., narrates the following story: "A catc of mistaken identity has been brought to our notice, tho result of which has crcated o thrill of joy toon af flicted mother, and at the same lime shows how easily it is for one to be mistaken. In March last Mrs. Julia Es mond, of Parma, Jackson county, in this state, received a letter from Cap tain Soule, of Company I, Sixth Michi gan Infantry, announcing tho death of her son, EJwaid V. Esmond. The let ter adds: "The Surgeon informs mo that he was buried in a beautiful spot by a kind old lady and her daughter, the grave covered with evergroena and a nice head hoard bearing his nome, age and | resiilonco, together with the regiment and company." i "Young Esmond, the identical fellow alluded to in his letter as having been burikd, arrived in Detroit a low dayi ago, and reported for duty at the bar racks." "As soon as Mrs. Hsmond received tho letter announcing tho death of her son she sent it to Captain Robinson, commanding at tho barracks, with tho solicitation that he ahould make the ne necessary inquiry into the case, and, if possiblo, aid her in obtaining his remains &o. Captain Kobinson broko the soal, adjusted his spectacles, and read the let ter. While engaged in reading a young man--apparently o strangor?walked up to him, and with hat in hand await ed his leisure. Aa soon as ho had com ploted reading the letter thoyoung man accosted him with "are you tho com. inandor ol this post?" "I am," said the captain. "Then I wish to report for du ty,'' said the atrangor- "I em from tho Sixth Michigan, and having just thii moment arrived from ray rogimont, I do sire to bo sent back ns soon as you may have a detachment of men roady to go thero." Upon beini osked his name no told it. Tho Captain informed him of -the contents of tho letter which ho belli in his hand. Thoyoung man assured the captain that ho was the identical Edward V. Esmond, and desired n pass to visit his mother. Tho uttcesaary doc. umenls wore of courao granted, nnd he departed for his home. The story, as stated by him, is that he was engageojin a skirmish,but having got lopatatod ftom his regiment lie wnndered about in ihe marshes for some days, o rebel force cutting lilin off from rejoinin g his com -1 rades.

I This he did, too, boforo ho vi?itod his mother. A niiantic Nwiudte. One of the boldest and most unscru pulotis swindles over perpetrated in this city, was consuinatod on Thursday last. I 1 lie facts in tho case are as follows: | About two weeks ago n genteel look- i ing lady, calling herself Mrs. S. E. West, claiming to resido in Sandusky Ohio, enme to this city and introduced horself' to Samnel A. Sargent, Esq., Heal Estate Agent, doing buftincRsjit Room No. 4 in Metropolitan llull Rlock, ami oxprowd a desire to invest to a considerable extent in oily property. Mr. Sargent deeming himself fortunate in obtaining a custom er of so heavy a caliber, placed himself at her servico, and proceeded, with nil requisite attention to show her such eli gible roal estate as ho controlled. Lots on the west and south sides woro shown her, and terms of side statad. Among other properly which sho desired to pur chase, was one for manufacturing pur poses, for her brolhor. This was select ed on Stato atreet, at the price of |3,. fiOO. A boautiful resiilonco lot, 0110 hundred nnd fifty feet fqunre. at tho corner of Michigan avenue and Ringgold place, was also solected and bnrgainod for, at the prioo of t?.500, and die of fered 93,'IJiJ for another valuable lot in the South Division. The bargain for these lots were dosod so far that nb (tracts of title for them were obtnined, and these abstracts wero plnccd by her in tho hands of Mr. Heed, of tho lav firm of Iinox, Euataco & Heed, of this cjty, lor. examination, to whom, also, tho circumstances of the purchase wero rela ted. She olso informed Mr. lloed that, in order to make the first pajtnonls on the property, it was necessary that alio should get a draft cashed, and, an she was a stranger here, that alio would liko to be introduced at the bnnker'i by some responsible nnd well known person.? I'or this purpose Mr. Reod uccompnniod her to tho "Merchant's Havings, Loan and Trust Company's oflico, on tho cor ner of Lake and Dearborn streets, whoro slto presented a draft by an Eastern band upon another in Now York city, for the sum of {(15,000. Sho also stated that as she ncedod but 11,000 at the time she would leave the balance of tho mo ney on depmit. This apparent fairneis and tho factofMr. Rood identifying her, had tlio desired pfToct, and alio received the amount named, nnd tho neoensnry receipt for ?4,000 left on doposit. Since that limo sho hat not been soon or. heard from. After duo course of limo, it has been ascertained that the draft in question was originnlly drawn for the pitiful sum of fifieon dollars, and raised to 815,000 by the simple addition of tlireo ciphers. A gentleman well acquainted in San dusky, when informed of the transaction "luted that the name of West, given by the woman, was evidently an assumed ono, as the families of that name in San dusky are well known and highly res pected?[Chicago Journal. I Tlic Death of Vnnccy. Tho death of that arch-plotter of this turrible Southern rebellion, William L. Vancey, is deplorod among tho rebel journals as involving the loss of a saint, who ombodied in himselfalmost, if not quite, all the talents and all the virtues of all tho great men of ancient and mod ern times. But justice to other dead men, even as rebels, requires (hat Yan cey, in his truo merits,should be hnrded over to in admiring posterity.
