Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.the Charlotte Troop en route. Farmville, Va., May 16, 1861 The Charlotte Troop set out from Charlotte N. C. this morning, on their line of march for Ashland, where they have been ordered to report. The corps is commanded by Capt. John G. Smith, and numbers eighty-one, rank and file. We arrived here at 3 o'clock, all well, and in good spirits. Permit me to avail myself of this opportunity, in behalf of our company, to express our grateful feelings to the people of Farmville for the hospitable manner in which we have been received. We soon found that we were among people animated with the same spirit and united by the same ties. The ladies soon found that our canteens needed covering, and in the shortest time twenty, at least, were plying their dear little fidgets in fixing them. This was an act of kindness which we shall never forget — The merchants, too, were very kind to sell us such articles as we found we could get to advantage

Mr. Seward's Definition of treason. --The Washington Secretary of State has addressed the following letter to Mr. G. Henequen, of New York, agent of the late New York and Virginia Steamship Company: Department of State, Washington, May 16, 1861 Sir: I have received your letter of yesterday's date, asking me to give you in writing my reasons for considering an acceptance on your part of Governor Letcher's proposition to purchase the steamships Yorktown and Jamestown, recently seized by his orders, and now in his possession, an act of treason. With this request I readily comply. An insurrection has broken out in several of the States of this Union, including Virginia, designed to overthrow the Government of the United States. The Executive authorities of the State are parties to that insurrection, and, so, are public enemies. Their action in seizing or buying vessels to be employed in executing that design is not merely without authority of law, but is treason.
