The RAID.-A correspondent from Richards Orslow
County, informs that Information has been received there
direct from the Yankee nes that the aforesaid Yankees
are htng up an expedition with three hundred CONS es
peCialy for RchlaHds. The expedition is said to be ehou
ready to foat out from Eewbec2 by way OF Smiths Mills
They must contemplate the accumulation of much punder
when they come out with three hundred wagons to carry
of in.
Our correspondent suggests that the points at which
these maraudn expeditions be best net and stopped
are Smiths Mills and Trenton these being the two outlets
Though which the Yankees gain access to the interior We
confess that we agree with believing
that these raids bs eecuay stopped when they
hrs issue out than they be at subsequent period
This OF course matter for the General commanding the
Department and his course must be regulated by conse
rations which it would noc be proper to make.
