the opinion Of refugees from that region,
that large amount Of stores still remain

We cannot better express our approba-
Won ofthe above Order than by referring
to our views on its topics as expressed
weeks ago in several editorials, There
are persons connected with the Federal
army here, whose conduct has been in
famous, and sufficient to arouse the in
dignasion and alarm of every patriot. If
an such offenders were promptly arrested,
tried, and dismissed, on conviction, from
the service, the effect oftheir punishment
you'd be most beneficial. We know Of
no reason why we should extend the
buckler Of protection, or apology, over a
military pillager, embezzler or drunkard.
