prudeuce and ability the triumph Of our cause
must be found.
All marauding Is vigorously suppressed BY
order Of Gen. Mcclellan. and there Ia some dis.
abstraction among the officers and men at what
they consider the too great protection afforded
o rebel citizens residing within our linee. The

s near the front Of our lines, Is particular y
spoken Of. A guard Is placed around the house
OF this fellow, who avows himself secession
sympathizer, and Is reported 10 have made use
