CRUELTY OF GovERsMrNr TRAM

CRUELTY OF GOVERNMENT TEAM.
srERs.--The ignorance and cruelty OF
many of the Government teamsters is
very justly a subject of comment by
our citizens Four mules were killed
in one day, and it ia said that FIVE or
six are killed every week, by the ig-
nofaace, brutality, and eruel-y Of dri-
vers, notwithstanding Capt. Putnam's
orders that no teamster shall uze a
club, stone, or the butt end of whip,
in breaking or driving either horses or
mules.

NORTHERN MECHANICS. The bust
ness created by the war has made
Washington quite brisk and pros
perons town. Many enterprising me-
ehanics and workingmen are taking
advantage of the opening thus Offer
ed to them. We notice that s. Ogden,
late chief engineer of the Paramount
Water Works, of Philadelphia, is
about to establish an extensive black.
smithery to do work for the army.

SAFETY OF THE CAPITAL. feel.
ing Of security pervades our entire
community, both in social aud bnsi-
ness circles. Tho reports, therefore,
that our citizens are panic struck, and
men, women, and children. fleeing
from the city, are positively untrue.
Some apprehension existed several
days ago, but this was sotn qnieted
by the measures of the Administra.
ton to guard against all possible con-
tingencies.
The feints of the rebels on the line
of the Potomac are now better under
stood, and military men whose opin-
ions are entitled to great respect, say
that even with the ordinary DEEPEN
denee on raw troops, they would de-
sire nothing better than for Johnson
or Beauregard to attempt that part
Of the rebel programme which con-
templates an advance towards Wash
ington.
1t is reasonably suspected in as re-
liable quarters that that this rallying
cry is adopted TO sustain the tagging
spirits Of the rebel troops, whose num-
bers, it is positively known, are fast
thinning by smallpox, measles, pneu-
nonia, aud other diseases
Many absurd rumors are from time
to time propogated By persons active
in causing discussions among our
troops, and among the latest is, thst
johnson has crossed the Potomac,
together with other important move.

er source warrants a proper contra
diction-
It is certain that no such informa-
ton has reached the headquarters Of
the army.

AN IMPORTANT ORDER. The re-
ported order of General Mcclellan in
reference to change in the color of
the uniform to be worn by our troops,
is one of great Importance. On
several occasions since the commence :
ment of the rebellion have disasters
occurred frem the mistaking of our
enemies for our friends through the
similarity of the unifors, and it is not
idle to suppose that in some great de-
cisive conflict blunder of this sort
may cause disastrous and even ru-
nous defeat.

HORSE SrUNG TO DEATH. few
days since, as a horse belonging to
Mr.. Daniel Blake, Of New Spring

field near his house, he was stung by
bee, which so enraged him that he

the enemy came, and in the act over

which now auimates both services -

owen Lovejoy and tho slavehunter.
The Springfield, No., correspondents of the n,
York Times writes:

Colonels Owen Lovejoy and Shanks are here,
and by invitation Of Gen. Hunter will probably
take some position on his staff. The former, by
aid of his good-natured countenance and his sua-
ritter in naodo, is q very general favorite. He
goes wandering carelessly around, looking not
unlike the elder Napoleon in outline; keeps a
close eye on the ebon chattels. and is chiefly en-
gagged, when engaged, in writing his name on
the upper right hand corner of envelopes, with
the addition Of an m. C."- A day or two since,
Union citizen came into camp, and, with do.
lorous visage, complained that somebody had al.
lured off his negro boy, Sam.
"See here y said some wag, after hearing his
complaint, ''do you see that gentleman yonder,
in blue coat? Well, you just go to him; he's
the man to hunt up your niggers" @ 81
The individual moment after had button.
holed the gentleman in the blue coat, and to the
great delight Of the listening crowd, 1ss inform
ing him that ''some cussed Abolltionist" had sto.
len his nigger, and asked his assistance.
"Look here, my FRIEND" said the gentleman
in the blue coat, as he leisurey took OF his glas-
ses, which he had put on the better to have a
view of his petitioner-do you see that man at
the gate with his gun? You do, eh? Well, now,
you just get out of this yard in FIVE seconds, OF
| III hand you over to his keepingw
The individual was out .'On time" and the in
dignant Col. Lovejoy watched his retreat with
the meet evident satisfaction. It is quite posi-
ble that the same man won't apply 10 him sec
ond time for assistance in nigger catching.
