sent to that place. On the 23d, between 4 and 5 p. m., a Federal regiment made a demonstration against Hampton, greatly alarming the citizens of that place. Maj. J. B. Cary, of the Virginia artillery, in command at Hampton, had made arrangements for the destruction of the bridges leading from Fort Monroe, but the enemy were in si extinguishing the fires at the bridges. This amicable understanding reached, the Federal troops marched into the town, remained for awhile and then returned. Major Cary reported to Colonel Ewell at Williamsburg, that this demonstration indicated the propriety of removing his camp farther from Hampton, where the people had respo, on the 7th of June made a reconnoissance with 20 picked men of the Old Dominion dragoons, two men from his own company, and accompanied by Captain Phillips, Lieutenant Cary and Lieutenant Harrison, to examine the Federal camp at Newport News. He then rode to within a few hundred yards of the fortifications, when he came unexpect

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.Methodist Conference--Education, &c. Hampton. Va., Nov. 11. The Methodist Protestant Conference is now in session. It was to have met on yesterday; but owing to the election. we suppose the delegates were prevented from attending sooner than to- day. The delegation is small, owing probably to the same cause. Mr. J. B. Cary's Academy is in a very flourishing condition, something like 120 scholars having entered up to this time. Chesapeake Female College has about fifty scholars — rather a small number when we reflect upon the fact that there are accommodations sufficient for three times that number.--It is well located, healthy and accessible. The weather has been very pleasant for more than a week; to-day it is raining, with every prospect of its continuing several days. The Baptist Church here having been sometime without a pastor, on last Sabbath extended a call to Rev. G. F. Adams, of Baltimore. It is thought h

d in another part of the town. About two o'clock our attention was called to a flag with the motto, "the Constitution and the Union"on one side of it; we cannot say what was on the other. But of one thing we are certain, before 6 o'clock the flag had split into three pieces. You will say that was ominous, and I agree with you. Several appointments to Federal offices have been made in this place. Our efficient and deservedly popular Postmaster, Mr. G. A. Cary, has been removed. Maj. J. B. Cary resigned the office he held, as Surveyor, Lincoln promptly filled it. It is reported other appointments have been made, but the report has yet to be confirmed. The time may soon come when certain representatives will have to give a strict account of their affiliation with Lincoln, Seward, Blair & Co. Would it not be better, infinitely better, to have representatives who have less sympathy with a Black Republican Administration ? The people will give a verdict at the approaching Spr

27, 1861. The steamer Kahukee, Captain Taylor, went down to Hampton Roads, yesterday, at 2 o'clock, with a flag of truce; and, not having returned, it is supposed that she had been detained by order of General Wool. The steamer went for the purpose of conveying down the Captain and a portion of the crew of the ship A. B. Thompson, which was condemned recently at Charleston, S. C. Oh board the Kahukee were Captain Huger, son of Gen. Huger; Lieut. J. F. Milligan, from this city, and Mr. J. B. Cary, of Hampton; also, Mis. Williams, wife of John Williams, agent of the Boston steamers, taken prisoner at Boston by Lincoln's authorities, and Mrs. Hutchinson, whose husband holds some office in the Federal Navy. The ladies are bound North--Mrs. W. hoping to get her husband released. If the Kahukee is held by Wool, and those on board imprisoned or detained as prisoners of war, a speedy retaliation should be forthwith commenced. The affair causes much excitement here, and many t

The Hampton soldiers. --We invite special attention to the eloquent appeal for the Hampton soldiers. It is from the pen of one of the bravest and patriotic of the former citizens of that suffering town. If any men in Virginia have a claim upon the sympathy and aid of their countrymen, it is surely the soldiers of Hampton. We trust that a generous response will be made to this touching appeal in our columns. Any contributions can be forwarded to Major J. B. Cary, Yorktown, care of Mr. Ellyson, Grove Wharf, or via York River Railroad, care of Captain J. B. White, Assistant Quartermaster at Yorktown. We would suggest that the freight on contributions be paid, as there is so much confusion in consequence of large amounts of supplies, that articles are frequently lost.

The Hampton volunteers. --We are requested by Lieut. Col. J. B. Cary, of the 32d Virginia regiment, to acknowledge the receipt of fifty dollars from Major J. Thompson Brown, of Richmond, for the benefit of the Hampton volunteers. We hope to have the gratification of recording many similar individual donations. Attractive entertainments have been given in behalf of the same good cause, but our people seem disinclined to countenance this method of raising a fund, although they are not, as a general thing, averse to attending places of amusement. The audience at the theatre, on Tuesday night, was far below the average number, and the concert given on Thursday night, by Prof. Decœniel and M'lle De Vries, did not pay expenses.--Still, we believe there exists in this community a sincere sympathy for the Hampton refugees, and it ought to be made known by generous offerings of aid.
