1t is painful TO add that both Mrs'

mschieyous; for, Of all the bideVas specimens of
perverted womanhood, none is wore hdecus than

the great rendezvous of the masses of travellers

Northern papers are not now circulated here,
except The Baltimore Sun. The New.York
papers are received at the newspaper Offices,
at the forrgn Consulstes, and by tie officers,
but do nor circulate generally. Hence the masses
are in the dark about the movement in the
North, while those officials who get the newspa-
pers fancy the news Of the movement OF troops
is exaggerated or manufactured The number of
persons who flee from the city has averaged about
one hundred week for some time past, and the
aristOcratic quarter presents most desolate
appearance, as many If tie weahiest families

Among the free coored people here notice al i'm
pudence and siuciness, which will increase In the
same proportion that rebellion advances. How
caa the African respect the Virguian, when the
Vireiuan persists in making fool OF himself :
The reaction upon the African population must
become gradually very terrible; for the free
colored people keep their ensased brethren fully
informed; and while tie stupid Soutberner hangs
the white man. who tsmpsrs with his slave, he
has not even wit enough TO perceive, that the
slave is to be prepared for freedom-aot by the
white man--but by those Of his own race who
have tasted the sweets of freedom.
