PROBABLE FATE OF THE CINCINNATI RECRUITS
is reported that Governor Deunson has determin-
ed to forward the troops recruiting in this city to
Washington by way of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. This be has done in spite of some ur-
gent remonstrances. The troops leave Columbus
this morning, and as there is at least an even
chance that by the time they arrive at Central
Virginia, the road will be taken possession of by
virginia forces, we may well make up minds
to learn that our fellow-citizens who left us with
high hopes of winning honor and glory in the tent.

Tyranical Treatment Of Newspaper
Correspondent.
The unusual and unjustifiable sentence
imposed upon a private in the Roches-
ter IN. W Regiment, stationed at
Arlington Heights, has excited the ut
most indignat on here. A gentleman
connected with the regiment, kindly
consented to correspond during his
absence at the seat of war with the
Rochester Eapress. His letters were
interesting, and we're eagerly looked for,
as each letter served as medium be-
ecu tho obsont volunteers and their
absent friends; but some of the whole
some truths contained therein we're not
palatable to the officers, and probably
TO the Department. In one of his let
tiers he criticised the manner in which
the men in his regiment were treated,
and the article being shown to the CON-
handing officer, the unfortunate CORES.
pondent, who dared to complain of the
conduct of his superiors, was sentenced
to carry fifty pounds on his back, six
hours each day, for twelve consecutive
days, besides doing regular duty. Such
severe punishment for an imaginary Of
fence against propriety, is not recog-
nized by the army regulations, or by the
code of Observation-Disclosures En-
Quirer.
