NORFOLK, Va. May 12.-The city
is very quiet. Most OF the etores
are closed, but Il ia expected that
they will open in day o, two, OK
|cept where the occupants have loft
the city with the army. Some ex'
citement still prevails, but it is sup
posed that in : few days when com.
inunica,ion Is fully ope ned with the
North confidence will be completely
restored.
Prices for almost everything are
astonishing high. Candles. for in
stance, Of miserable quality, are six
ty cents per pound; common brown
envelopes fifty cents n package, and
brown sngsr twenty-nine cents per
pound. A number OF stores will be
opened, however, in few days by
parties from Old Point and Balti
more, who will bring supplies Of ar.
ticles much wanted here. The Post
Office and Custom House will doubt.
less be reopened very shortly.
Very little Union sentiment is
openly expressed. All over the
city our soldiers. both privstes and
officers, freely talk with the citizens,
which must produce q good effect.
All the Notifications in the vicin-
lity are occupied by U MON troops,
and all the public lPerty is in
possession of the Federal authori.
ties.
The policy Of the Confederate
Government appears to he to concen.
trste their troops at Richmond, and
some even say that all the Gull
States will be given up before Vir'
ginis, and that Richmond will be
held to the very last. All insis,
that q desperate resistance will be
made at Richmond II no where else
| Several negroes arrived from Suf
folk this morning, and report tha,
no troops or Notifications are there
or on the road this side.
Among most Of the citizens here
little confidence is felt in the officers
OF the Confederate Government.
Confederate notes are refused il
many places. Gold and silver ar'
welcomed With enthusiasm by al
classes OF the population, many o
whom have not seen either 70
many months.
Elizabeth river, between Norfoll
and Portsmouth, is Of deep cohe

which has been thrown into it il
