To-dav Maivlurd and Missouri lie at the
feet of the North. Kentucky is neutral,
Tenn s?eo i being activdy canvapsed on
bihalf ol the Union, and Wt stern Virgin
! ia is formed into a sovertign and almost
fiee S ate. One month Pgo, the South-
em army were pn pared to march direct
ion Waihington, and even thrtattned
j lYnn?5 Ivania nnd Uarjland from liar-
p i's Ferry. To-lay they are content to
I take up defensive positions deep in tho
lit art ol Virginia, and are thieatened with
de.-lruc-ion by an overwhelming force.
, When a revolution does not go forward,
i it recedes. The retrograde, movement
from Harper's Ferry will inflict infinite
chimin on Jiff. Davis' nrmy. It will
di pi iso forever tin ir golden dreams of
compiest; it will reveal lo them that tiny
are about to undeitr.ke a weaiy, defensive
warfare, with straitened mians, sgninst
foices which they cannot cope with on
ii u al turns. When wc add lhat there
are hundreds of tiiou-ands in Virginia
watching tbe advance ol the U. S. forces
wiib j iv. eager lo re-establish the power
of the Federal (iovernnu nt, we cannot
Mipjo-e that iln'te will be any great dif
ficulty in a coniplishing that work. There
may bo .some fighlirg bifore IlicliD'ond;
but raw Virginian levie?, ill nrmed and

forces In- may compel the submission of
Vi-ginit without striking a blow. We
presume that il will not be possible for the
Noiihern hoops to advance South of Vir
ginia during iho hot weather; but if that
State is coioiucied, the rest will follow ia
the fill. The pride of the South may be
hurt, but prub.ib'y a majority of the peo

A Forgotten Hero.
a
Wbihi there ii a curious identity of
mime I elweni John Merry in an iu bonds
at Fort McIIeiiry, and the John Mvrry-
man imprisoned at (norgetown, a. L.,
there is a-i striking a contrast betw en the
I charges for w hich ihey are confined. The
j fornur was incarci rait d by tlie Govcrn
! mint ot (be United S ales, on atv allega
i i on i f conspiring for its overthrow ; tho
la: t r for a fidelity wholly unexpected in
j a community which bad boldly plunged
' into treason Faidiful among the faiih
i less ii is proper that the facts in regard
i to tlit S uih Carolina victim should not
be pern. i. ted to pass from the public
lliiiul.
J din Mcrrym in was the Federal Col
lector of the pott of Georgetown, S. C,
at thu time of the. pas' age of the fieccs-
i sum ordinance. As a true min, be re-
fused to violate his official oath, or be-
come a party to the general treason. Ha

jnu tflicer and his rights as a cuizeu of
I ibis Republic ; and for ibis he was, iu
j ln-t Feb i nary, si iz d by a Vigilance Com
I niiiiee, and, without trial, thrown into
' pii ou iu Georgetown. And this rupect
I able gentleman, accustomed to the couve
i tie nee s and eh gances of life, remainB a
piisoner in the common jtil. The hot
.season and ihe nek'y climate of George

to be ihe occasion of his perishing alone
