have Taught them a lesson which they would not
bave fnrTotten. Col Kane came up after the pc
lice had arrested the soldiers, and ordered their !
release directing them to go to their camp. The |
most respectable of the intfuders are obnoxious
enough to community, but when the baser sort
are allowed to enter city and indulge their
vicious propeusities it is more than our citizens
can we'll bear.
BALTIMORE AND OHro RALRoAD.-The trains on
this road have been running quite regularly, and
but slight Interruptions are met with. At Harper's
Ferry the trains closely examined by the Nir-
ginia military authorities but this is done in
tpous manner, and the trains are detained but
short time. At the Point of Rocks the track has been
torn up for thirty wards, and the passengers have,
in consequence to be transferred from train to
another at this point. For days the troops
here stationed have been making preparations to
throw across the track the large rock, twelve eet
square, known as 'DOlnan MOCK, WHICH pi'ycSto
the track about fifty feet above the bed of the

to be thrown over at moments notice

mprous stories afoat tor some weeks past. to the
effect that there is great scarcity OF provisions IN

State. But these apprehensious are entirely I'M
founded, there is, within the limits of that
f'puOuoh snare
As an instance, we may state that from most re-
liable private source have learned that there is
at this time, within the towns of Lynchburg
Petersburg aud StauntOn, three thousand casks 81
bacon, each cask being equal to tive barrels, be
sides grain and an abundance of other such arti

Friday evening last detained at that point severa

be returned to the Railroad company, as when /
was stopped the authorities acted upon information
given them that the coal was intended for the us
of the Federal Government. Upon ing informe
of the incorrectness of the information, Col
Jackson at assured the officers of the Com
