We learn that a very common impression
pervades the ranks of the peace Democrats
of this State, that the language of General
Order No. 16, which speaks of forming regi-
ments "by detachment or detail" was not used
without its peculiar meaning, and this mean
ing is, as their fears suggest, that the loyal
officers will "detail' none but Danaites, thus
: compelling those who have set their faces
against the war, either to smell gunpowder or
to pay $50 each! If there is any .'constitu-
tionar way in which such detailing" may
be made operative, it would net be bad idea
to "try it on" One vicious horse in a team of

1.-THE business of this city continues to revive.
Northern merchants, with new stocks OF goods,
are opening stores which are freely patronized.
The mails are sent North daily, but are re-
ceived irregularly, owing to the delay at Cairo.
Six thousand letters were sent North on Mon
day.
Several secession sympathizers have been ar
rested, and yesterday were passed South.
negro was arrested yesterday with a large
mail from persons In the rebel army to their
friends here.
The secessioinsts of Warrenton are glory
ing overthe news of the battle near Richmond,
but acknowledge that if McClellon gets rein
forcements enough to take Richmond, the war
would be over.
A scouting party found a mill in full opera
ton some miles from Warrenton, making army
cloth, one thousand yards being ready for de-
livery. The owners of the mill and operatives
were notified that they would be held respon-
sibe with their lives should it be sent away.
Col. Mulligan, the hero of Lexington, who
has been engaged in guarding prisoners at
Camp Douglas all winter, is now entrenching
himself at Harpcr's Ferry, overlooking Boil
var Nights. He has a splendid fighting corps,
some of whom were in the Crinean war
Hon. Jere Clemens of Alabama, is severely

he has expressed his loyalty to the United

ern Confederacy a failure.
Ex-Governor Seymour of Connecticut it Is
said, is about to raise one of the five new regi-
ments required from that State. He has much
fame as soldier-having, as is well known,
distinguished himself greatly in the Mexican
war, and, no doubt, could bring large numbers
speedily to his standard.
The latest accounts from the army of the
Potomac state that ourloss in killed, wounded,
and missing in the late battles will not exceed
eleven thousand men.
