The Soldiers Stopped Reading.

An order has been issued prohibiting the cir
culation of all newspapers In the Army of th,
Potomac until further notice. This Is a yer,
strange movement. and one it will be very diff
icult for the administration to justify before
the country. The soldiers are also American
citizens, and have right to know what is 20.
ing on in the world. OF course it is obvious
why this order has been issued. The all but
universal dissatisfaction of the country with
the negro policy the radicals are forcing upon
the government is very clearly indicated by
the newspaper press, and the feeling is quite aa
common in the army as elsewhere. The Ad-
ministration hopes by this means to pre-
vent a knowledge of their growing dis
content from reaching the soldiers, for
fear it would affect their morale But in
this, as in all other measures, civil and
military, the administration shows it's want OF

The Way a Soldier Looks at It.

A letter is published in the last number Of
the Mansfield Shield and Banner from DR.. s. ]
NULL to Mr.. S. NULL, dated at camp near Fair
fax, Virginia, in Pine Forest, January II, 1863,
in which he says:
1t would surprise you to see the Government
trains starting off for the different parts of the
army. If the old farmers of Richland county
could see it, they would open their eyes and
say they could not stand it, and they would
urge the war TO an end without delay; they
love their homes as dear as the South love
theirs. 1t will take the homes of both to pay
the debt which the Abolition war ia making
II is one of the most unjust wars that ever was
made in the world, and may the God Of Heaven
bring IL to close before the opening Of another

The Strength and Discipline of the Reb.
ell ARMY.

An intelligent man, who was recently clerk
in the Office Of the Adutant- General of the rebel
army, has arrived in Washington, and revealed
many important facts concerning the condition
of the rebel army,which are considered reliable.
He says that there are only 48l regiments in
the Southern army, but that these are all kept
full, and oil skeleton regiments have been absn-
doned; the total number OF men at the present
time being 225,000, which piH certainly be
Increased to 700. 900 By the first of June. The
whole number of rebel officers he estimated at
25, 900, or about one-haf of those in the Federal
army. He says it is common occurrence for
men to be shot down for attempting to shirk
their duty. and that to his knowledge, gathered
from the records, at least two thousand five
hundred have thus perished In different parts of
the country. When hs left Richmond there
were FIVE Thousand negroes engaged in strength
ening the detenses of that city, and now it is
surrounded by three lines Of Notifications. II
was common saying among the Confederates,
that the only man they feared was Mcclellan
In the opinion Of the informant the rebellion
can never be put down until the finances of the
rebels are ruined or their army broken, for until
those events take place the leaders will have
their own way and the masses remain in state
of subiuRatiOn.

The Soldiers Paid in Paper--Other Gov
eminent Creditors Get Gold.

In the Eleventh Senatorial District of New
Hampshire, the Democracy passed, among
others, the following resolution:
"ResOlued, That we favor the prompt payment
of our soldiers in gold or silver coin, or their
equivalent in current funds; and the fact that
the Government shall hereafter owe any soldier
Tor three months service, should entitle said
soldier to discharge-for we firmly believe
that We cannot ao q nation honorably sustain
our cause by crushing the families of those who
voluntarily have pcriled their lives and future
prospects in the field"
That resolution is just. The Government
pays the soldiers in its bonds-the rich ant
