A news-boy, who came out from Richmond yes
terday afternoon TO sell papers to the Confederate
soldiers, captured by pekets just at night,
and wac taken 20 Gen. Franklins headquarters,
whence be was sent TO Gen. McClelan's headquar-
ters this morning. TIE papers contained glowing
account Of the recent foray by Stewards cavalry
upon our supply wagons ON the line of the railroad
near Tunsialls Station, and but a few miles from
Whi.e House. The papers were eagerly bought IN
by our soldiers at round prices and the boy who had
been stuck on bis papers, and had walked down
70 the outer pickels Of tie enemys lines III hopes 10
ind customers, regretted that he had Lot brought
along five or six hundred of them.
From some uDaccoWtable cause, not one Of these
papers, with The abOve-pamed glowing account OF
lie Rebel folay, could be obtained. Tire impression
prevails that there has been treachery somewhere,
end that had Gen. NcClelaD's orders been carried
out with proper fagacity, The TereSt OF the Rebel
lnaraudeTs would have been cut OF, and the entire
body captured. As il is, abon. dozen Of the band

Three deserters. natives Of Northern States, came
into the lines near Mechancsvie bridge this alter

Seven Pinea, the sidewalks in Richmond were
covered with dead and wounded soldiers. The
third deserter, a native Of New-YOrk, states that
the negroes in Richmond are being pressed ioto the
service, and are furnished with arms.
