For The Examiner
Summary
Letter to the Examiner from "A Cosmopolite" who has recently returned from a visit to Virginia. He says the rebel sentiment there is as strong as ever before and cites examples of things said to him. A Methodist Episcopal church in Loudoun Co. was closed and a notice posted on the door that if the preacher who came from the Baltimore Conference ever spoke there again he would be "beheaden." The opinion was expressed to "Cosmopolite" that Union men were of a lower class of society.
