In doing so, she met this nsgro—who, it seems, is quite a despera do in that section—and he, discovering that she had money, became possessed of it by force. The woman threatened him with Dr. Stephenson, but he refused to return the money. She then returned and iuformed the doctor of what bad occurred, when ho irnmo- diaUly set out to reeover the money. The negro was found near where the woman bad enco«atered him, and was requested by Dr. Stephenson to deliver the money. Instead of complying, however, he picked up a rook, and raised it in a threatening attitude. The doc tor then drew his pistol and begi leaden ergnnaents. A brisk little skirmish ensued—the doctor using his pistol and the negro throwing rocks. The sable bigway- man waa finally disabled, and the money re oovered. News Items.

Mr. Jilitor: f regret that anything haa been Saul iu the paper* about the invitation which waa extended Inst week to Ri.shop Simpson to preach in the Central Presbyterian Church, and its revocation last Sabbath morning. As my name in mentioned in your columns this moruiug, iu connection with the matter, 1 deem it proper to p«U the matter right. The invitation wum ejHended to Ibshop Simpson lust Thursday, by tho authority of the Elders of the Church, aud was revoked Sunday moruiug by the same authority.— Thero was no meeting of the Session to ex tend the invitation, nor wak thero nny to re voke it. Yet in wtm made «ud revoked by. proper authority, under the rules aud linages of the Church. As I was made tho medium for communicating the invitution, I wan formed on Hahbath that it wun revoked, and was iuformed that it was revoked in defereuce tn the Methodists of this city. Hknby P.

No more oonspicucus instance of the reward which merit and genius can bring to the ir posse sor*' iu America has ever beeu afforded to the world.

I have no other feeling than that of pity for thw opposition partv, who were deceived aud led by adventurers having only their own per sonal aggrnudixemeot and aims in view, with ueither mterrst, obsraoter nor self reepcct at stake ; for these a majority of them never had.

Sho was save! from a terrible fate through your noble exertions, and though I have never before visited this section, or been among you, yet our victory was in no small degree due to the uufuiliug efforts of South west and Koutb western Virginia. Dot we have passed our darkest days, and I cau now •ea the star of Lope shining brighter and brilliantly, beckoning us on to a happy and prosperous future, lo the next three month# 1 expect to aaa tho deatiny of Virginia in the hands of her own people, and her affairs con- (ruled by thus to whom she has intrusted them, iustead of tbe vagrants and interlopers.

To pash forward and enconiage this spirit, so apparent in thamauy and largely atteuded agricultural fairs being hold In tbe BtAte and in contemplation, will be toy special endeavor and cbiefost aims.— What Virginia now most needs is plenty of honest, industrious and intelligent laborers. Procure these, from no matter what source* encourage them, make their labor remunera tive), and strive with all your might, and my word for it, Virginia will soon occupy her proper position—the wealthiest as well as the mother of States. To the young men I ap peal especially not to forsake their old homes —their grand old mother—in the hour she moat needs their servioes, and at the time they can be most profitable to both. l>o not forsake the plow and fly to the large cities of the North, aa too many have done, for they are dens of vioe, infamy and immor ality, which are always filled to overflowing, and where thousands are daily rednoed to beggery. Stick by vour old homes, yonng men, aod put your shoulders to the wheel— The earliest portion of my life waa spent on a farm, and I look back with peculiar fondnoss aud affection to the j.^ys of the field, and the attachmeuti formed by healthy industry and honest labor. I hope you will profit by this simple, plain but well meoot advice. I am proud to meet the people of the South west here under the present circumstances, and it they will continae tho efforts now start ed for their own advancement, Virginia will soon be on tbe high road to wealth aud hap piness. Keep tbe ball moving, and I pledge myself that wo shall all meet here in twelve months under more hopeful, brighter and happier anspioea. ” GiLinen Countt, October 1C, I860. Editor of the Era: 1 write ibis note alter a week** sojourn with the people of this county. Tbe fall term of the Superior Court bos just closed its week's labors, and I am happy to say I think with aa satisfactory result« as * have ever witnessed on such an occasion. The bitter feelings engendered by tbe war have subside*), and petfect peace and harmony exist among those heretofore bitter enemies. The jury nystem nuder our new Constitution is so satisfactory that not a strike was made of any uamo in any case (civil or eriminal) during the entire week’s labors. Thns it is that lUb. and Union (as heretofore distin guished) agree willingly lo allow their rights of liberty and propf rty to be passed upon by one another. The crops in this county aro not ns good ori usual, but plenty for both man and beast Itinerant. Good Mews from Dr. Livingstone—Tbs Mighty Nile. Wo Lave lato and authentic news from that indomitable African explorer. Dr. Livingstone, that be is not only olive und well, bnt that iu prosecuting bis geographical researches he has discovered that ono of tbe sources of tbe Nile, emptying into the great lake Viotoria Nyanza, rises some ten degrees sooth of the equator. If this be true the Nile becomes the longest river in the world, eclipsing even tho tremendous sweep of the Missouri from its sources to the Mississippi and thence to the Gulf. A fair idea of the long line of tbe Nils may be formed from the fact that the distance between its last repotted source aod its delta along tho Mediterranean is equal to the dis tance from Lima, in I'eru, to tbe eity of New York, or from the city of Mexico away up to Mount St Elias, the end of ths backbone of this Continent, in Alaaka. Well, then, may the ancient river of Egypt be called the mighty Nile. Rut we need go no farther ou tbe cue band than into tbe mountains of Abyaeinia, whence the Blue Nile and the Albara tributaries of tha main stream descend, nud, on tbe other hand, to tbe lakes Albert and Viotoria Nyauxa, the great reservoirs of tho White Nile or maiu river, in order to establish tbs life-givrng and never-failing stream of Egypt, iu its psouliar features, aa the most wonderful in tbe world. From the deluging jaIum which, from the In dian Ooean, are borne and discharged upon the Abysaian mountains and tablelands, come the enriching anuuql overflow of Egypt, while from the sbouudiug e .uatorial rains of the loftly regions around lake* Albert and Victoria flows that exhAustless supply or tbe main stream which, for fifteen hundred miles through a burning desert, bears si ill its ample volume to the sea. These faots have been fully established by the explorstious of that intelligent traveler and dashing son of Nimrod, Kir Samuel Raker, in conjunction with tbe equatorial dis coveries of Speke, Grant and Burton. Rakor, in tho servioe of tbe enterprising Egyptian' Vi ceroy, is now at the bead of a powerful expe dition en route to take possession of the whole line of tbe Nile, and should Livingstone re main a few mouth* longer “prospecting” aroond thorn) equatorial lakes, Bsktr will probably find him and bring him off.

UtMirsl TSomai on Alaska. After a thorough |>er*ona! iuspootion of Alaska, General George H. Thomas, a man of careful inquiry nud sound judgment, pro nounces substantially that great purchase “a sell.” Ilo docs uot agree with Mr. Sewaid at all. What if tho American eagle soars iu the skie* of Alaska aud tho " humming bird doss not disdain lo flutter there,” General Thomas stilt thinks (be Territory “good for nix." They hsve plenty of timber and oool tip there; but wo have plenty of theae articles nearer home. For fanning Alaska is of no earthly m'conut. Grain cannot be raise*! there, and the few vegetables that can be, if you attempt to keep them, a ill be found rotU>u at the end of 9 few week*. They hsvo too much rain and too little sun iu thoae polar regions for farming or gardening or stock rfiiaing, and the best thing the government can do for Alaska is to cut dowu the expenses of governing It to a very small military establishment. Koch Is the opinion of General Thomas, and it shaken •nr faith very nerioasly in the mse-oolored foncriptloh of the enraptured sage of Auburn.
