MIsc cHIEvoUs.-Ths Baltimore Sun paints up
in sensation style the 'stouching scenes" at
tending the ''banishment'' to the South OF Mrs
Pairo and her daughter Alice, who, for disloyal
practices, have been seLt to Richmond via
Staunton. The Sun has rather a time of it to
make out q case, and is obliged to admit that
sthroughout the whole trying scene Mrs Paro
bore herself with remarkable composura," but
hastens to add that the prospective parting
from her husband and home evidently oppressed
with crushing weight on her mind" The fact
Is she was as 'scool as cucumber" teing one
OF that stripe OF women who glory in the noto
rIety OF such martyrdom. Some of her inter-
cepted letters, as published in the american,
tell the whole story.
