Company G. --The efforts of this company, (which, under Capt. Gordon's command, has attained a good position in the 1st Regiment,) to get up a ball on a grand and splendid scale, bid fair to be crowned with ample success.--The ball-room in the Mechanics' Institute has been decorated with excellent taste, and so far as the visible attractions are concerned, nothing is lacking. We understand that Smith's celebrated band of music is engaged for the ocsion, and the arrangements for "refreshing" the guests are on a liberal scale. We really hope that Company G will to-night be encouraged by the attendance of a throng, and that the fair ladies will not hesitate to cheer the military men with their presence. The ball commences at half-past 8 o'clock. Price of tickets, admitting a gentleman and two ladies, $2.50.

miling their approval. But yesterday evening was the grand climax; large numbers of citizens turned out to meet the Richmond delegation, which arrived between 8 and 9 o'clock at night. The booming of cannon, the firing of rockets, the glare of torches, with the inspiring strains of the band, these all united to give grand effect to the living tableau. The geat jubilee was held at Jarratt's Hotel; there the crowd was el oquently addressed by Messrs. Douglass of the Senate, Roger A. Pryor, Gordon of Albemarle, Crenshaw of Richmond, Wallace, and others. My space does not allow me to give even an outline of these graceful and appropriate speeches; suffice it to say, they were warmly received, and gave the highest satisfaction. So much for politics. Bishop Johns is expected here the latter part of this week to administer the rite of confirmation at the two Episcopal churches.--I learn that the number to be confirmed is quite large. He will also administer the rite of "ordination

n Flag and Instructing Delegates. There was a glorious meeting in Louisa county, on Monday last. S. M. Hackett was called to the chair, and D. M. Hunter appointed Secretary. Amid the rattle of musketry and the shouts of the people, the flag of the Confederate States was raised upon a staff one hundred feet in height. Speeches brimful of the true Southern fire were made by Hon. D. C. Dejarnette, Rev. Mr. Waggoner, the resident minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and Mr. J. L. Gordon. Resolutions were unanimously adopted declaring that Virginia, at the time of ratifying the Federal Constitution, was, and still is, a sovereign State; that the day of compromise is past, and the only question now for the people of Virginia to decide is whether they will unite with the "Confederate States" who are their friends, or adhere to the Northern, who are their enemies; and heartily approving the course of Mr. Dejarnette in Congress, and pledging themselves to support his re-election
