Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.from Monroe county. Indian Creek, Monroe County, Va., July 1, 1861. As I have not seen anything in your paper as to what Monroe is doing for the war, and others are claiming what their counties are doing, I think it simple justice to claim our just dues. First, an appropriation of $10,000 has been made by the County Court for war purposes. O. Beirne, Esq., has subscribed $2,000, and says he will give as much more if necessary. A. T. Caperton, Esq., has subscribed $500 for the same purpose, besides others have subscribed liberally. We have six volunteer companies in the service, or soon will be. It is the determination of the people of Monroe to stand by old Virginia. At the election in May we had a few who voted against Secession, but the most if not all who did so will now be loyal to the institutions of the South. I saw by the proceedings of the Convention that an ordinance has been passed, declaring all who hold offic

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.presentation of a flag. Camp West Point, July 1, 1861. On last Friday, June 28th, the Pamunkey Artillery, stationed here under the command of our most gallant Captain, Robert T. Ellett, was presented with a most beautiful flag by certain ladies of New Kent county, which was upon that day for the first time thrown open to the breeze. Their appeal to us to "receive it as the gift of sister daughters of our common mother, Virginia, and to recognize in it the emblems of our nationality," was clothed in the most beautiful manner, and did not fail to call forth from the bosom of all present a favorable response. They separately replied: "Spotless it is; it will be our duty and pleasure, with the Divine assistance, thus to return it." The flag was to have been presented by Dr. Tazewell Tyler, of New Kent county, but in consequence of being detained at home, Dr. Edward Eppes, a most accomplished gentleman and physician, and our surgeon,

Charleston, Kanawha, July 1, 1861. Gen. Henry A Wise reached this town on Wednesday last, escorted by a fine cavalry company and attended by his staff. Col. C. Q. Tompkins has accomplished miracles in organizing his military force here, considering the difficulties be had to contend with. Capt. Patton commanding at a camp some miles below here, has his camp in thorough military order, as I am informed by those who accompanied General Wise in a visit on Friday last. The state of public sentiment in this immediate region is sound, and public spirit aroused, and active for defence A few months longer of apathy on the part of the people, deception on the part of partizans, and neglect on the part of public authorities, and this beautiful valley would have been in the hands of the enemy.

[for the Richmond Dispatch.]death of Henry C. Hancs. Sanystis Cross Roads, July 1, 1861. Eve this reaches you, the swift wing upon which is borne ill tidings, will have conveyed to the family and many friends of Sergeant Henry C. Hanes his untimely death. To those who knew Hal Hanes, it is unnecessary to say that our whole company, at this time, is thrown into grief, which renders one incapable of giving a detailed account of the action in which he just his life. It is enough to say, that when his officer called upon one to volunteer to ascertain the exact position of the pickets of the enemy, which was a strong one and in rifle shot of 1000 men, he was the first to step forward to the post of danger.--Brave, noble Hal. His name will ever be the rallying cry for the "Governor's Mounted Guard." We all loved him. No one could know him without loving him for his many noble traits, If he had a fault, none of his company have ever discovered it. He lost his life in an which wou
