LIoroR TRADE wITRNKw ORLEAR s-The

LATEST FROM NORFOLK
from Norfolk as late as Monday last
states that on that day $40 women and
children from Norfolk and Portsmouth
came up under flag of truce to Suffolk.
They left Norfolk early Oh Monday morn
ing, arriving in Suffolk little after noon.
After some little detention they were set
at liberty to make their way the best
they could to lvor and to Petersburg.
About 100 reached that city by the train
from Iyor Wednesday afternoon, and the
rest are on the road between Suffolk and
IvOr, or waiting at Suffolk for some
means of conveyance. The Petersburg
Express says:
The ladies who have arrived here speak in
rapturOus applause Of the kindness OF the
few remaining citizens Of Suffolk, who took
as many as they could to their houses, and
made them comfortable, and when no more
could be provided for, vacant houses were
opened and shelter afforded when no other
comfort could be given. About one hundred
occupied the spacious residence OF Nathaniel
kiddick, ESQ, sleeping on the doOr or on
pallets prepared for them.
From Suffolk they had to get to Ivor in
carts, wagons, and such conveyances as could
De procured. we learn J42t DuMDer were
expected at IvOr last night, and We hope that
an extra train will go down for them to-day
All represent the state Of things in Nor
folk and Portsmouth as deplorable indeed
Brig Gen. Barnes, now In command there,
is said, however, to be more humane and
gentlemaniy in his treatment of the citi-
Zens than any commandant that has prece-
ded him
Through the intercession of friends re-
epite has been granted DR.. Wright, and TO
morrow (Fridayl has again been set apart for
his execution. The suspension Of the order
for his execution on the 18th was not re-
celved until the very morning Of the day ap.
pointed. A sad and affecting scene was en-
acted in the Jail of Norfolk on Thursday, the
18th daughter Of DIR. Wright's was
united in marriage to gentleman to whom
she had been long afianced, In The presence
OF her father, and at his special request. The
sad circumstances under which these nup-
tials were solcmnized drew tears from the
eyes of even the Federal attendants.
Great concern is felt in Norfolk by the
Yankee officers for the safety of Meade's le-
treating army, and large number OF wagons
and ambulances have been sent Off from
Washington to supply the places Of those
taken and destroyed by Lees forces.

Ro6bery-A well dressed negro fellow, EN-
ployed as hack driver on Franklin street,
was attacked near Camp Winder, last We'd
nesday night, by three armed men, who pre-
sented their pistols to his head and made
him pull off his coat, vest and hat, which
they took. They then ritled his pockets Of
$50 and let him go, promising to take his
lite If he made any alarm. These outrages
are said to be Of frequent occurrence on the
Westham and Deep Run roads. Marketmen
are stopped on their way to the city at night,
and forced to give up any portion of their
loads that the robbers demand, and on sew
eral occasions have been severely heaten for
even protesting against having their masters
property thus taken.

Of iDstructing their delegates to vote for q

misery. The vote OF yesterday gives us Il
lesson which will be Of value to MS hereafter

by very small portion of the community,
and how utterly without reason a handful
of men may set themselves mp as the repre-
sentatives of the great body Of their fellow
citiz. Ms. The baiiot-box is much surer
test of public opinion than the "clamors OF
the hustiDgs or the bulletins Of committees.

Madison Ward-F0r instructions, Gl :;
