From gentlemen who reached here Thursday, we
learn that the Yankees have occupied Suffolk IN
large force Their pickets now extend six miles
this side of Suffolk, and their marauding parties
extend out for miles in every direction, stealing
bacon, poultry, eggs, pigs, and everything else OF
value Several prominent citizens have been ar
rested and thrown in jail for the simple cause that
they are known to be loyal to the Southern Con-
federacy. Mr.. Benjamin Smith, ofSufolk, has been
confined because he spoke authoritativey to his own
servant and others have been similarly treated Tor
like trivial offences This is but the beginning OF
the evils which necessarily follow the ineXcusaOie
evacuation of Norfolk and the objectionable destruc-
ton of the Merrimac.

LETTER FROM THF e5Tu.

McDowiLL, Va, Arril 10.
EDiroRs TRlBuSE;
While sitting in my tent. with my fellow
mess mates, and hearing the sound Of the
ra ratcring on the walls Of our Sibly house,
| hear the sound of the rifle, which tells
plainly, we ATE goirg TO have some eatablcs
(of be'fj Tor io.morow, as weare still ad
yancing toward the ''land Of Dixie"
Yesterday morning we got orders to move
from the old brick school house, where our
co. was stationed, to the Rog't, which was
out in a pleasant rolling piece of valley, n
distance OF 100 rods from the town of Monte
rey, which was once beautiful little village,
situated on the Staunton Pike, about 60 miles
from the town Of Beverly, or 10 miles from
Webster, where we left the rail road and took
TO marching.
We had just got cleverly fixed, and our
bed Of straw made, and ready at any time 20
lie down and take good snooae, when oil at
once The orders came 10 strike tents and get
ready for marching as quick AS possible. All
was hustle and hurrah for while, and, in
course OF one hour, or less time, everything
wns packed and ready for march, either
way, but Of course we did not wish TO march
backward; but we were soon on the move to
ward this place. We started nbout4 O'Clock
p NJ, and, after travelling over mountain
roads and winding around through the forest
and then down in some narrow valley, whose
mountain walls rise far above our heads on
either side, and the craggy rocks, whose per,
pendicular walls and peaked tops, remind us
OF the Eagle, rho builds his nest on similar
rocks in South Am erica. aud other places
where he is iouLd, we reached orr dcstina
| tion.
AT length the commander gives the word
"halt,' and each one throws himself upon
the ground to rest, after logging his KNAPP
sack over the rough m ountnins and muddy
roads for four mites through the hot SUM-
In few minutes the bugle sounds and we are
again on the march.
Such is the scenery. and little after nigh
fall, We find ourselves halted for the night
on beautiful camping place, which over
looks the town Of Mcdowell. which standt
about half mile from our camp. Ate
pitching tents and having some wnrm coffee
We laid ourselves dow uron cur blankets
which are spread on the ground, to keep Of
the dampness. We soon are sound asleep
forgetting the hardships of war, ADd. lonl
after daylight, We waken up quite refrcshe,
from our march Of 10 miles. eager to follow
the enemy, who are eyaeua,ing one point Of
ter another and retreating toward Staunton
which is &c miles from here
As most Of tho boys have not been home OF
furlougb, they are anxioul to get TO see
railroad once more--not go much to see tn
railroad, hut more civilized country, as W
term it.
Yesterday morning our men had a littl
skirmish with the rebel piekets, who was. a
that time. but few miles from here. but
don't think they will stay 80 close long. bu
will fall back to some other mole suitab
place for encamping. The boys are mostl
. in good health and spirits.
