Alexandria that about two hundred Irish iami
lies are in state of starvation in that city,
Many Irshmen were induced to disregard their
naturalization oaths by the harangues of such
men as Extra Billy Smith, and to join the Sc
cession army. They were promised a certain
amount per month for the support of their fam,
lilies. This promise was kept for few weeks,
until the men had got out to Manassas. Since
then, nothing has been paid them, and hence
this distressed condition of women and chill.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The Rich.

sage of President Davis, says We are two
people from this time forward. We are
aware the Yankees are determined not to
quit US. happen what may. II they can.
not conquer US. their calculation is that
they will be conquered by US. They have
made up their minds to submit tamely to
their fate. Well, If we must we must,
though We shall have a great aversion to
the task. Our choice is, after drubbing
them soundly, and making them pay the
expenses of the war, to turn them loose
upon themselves, pray to their own vile
passions.

army large enough to hold it.
I, Our gigantic coast expeditions are
probably convincing the Confederates Of
the necessity Of removing the field Of
battle tnTther South.
Unable to defend Richmond and un-
willing TO loose their capital they change
the seat Of Government and ship their
traps thence.
The news from the Coast Expedition is
very meagre; Gen. Sherman is strongly
dortifying his position.

northward through Missouri again at the
head of a strong force. They have eros

The Western forces are concentrating
at 81. Louis. The feet Of gunboats bull.

The 18th Ohio Regiment, at last ac-
counts, was at Danville, Ky, about to
join the force in South Western Kentucky.
Fort PicEens opened FIRE on the rebels
at Pensacola on Saturday last. At last
accounts the battle was still going on.
The guns from the fort had set the Navy
Yard on fire tn rec times, but the Ere had
been extiuguisbed. They had slso burnt
the town Of Warrenton. The rebels
