description: anc, what is quite as much to the
purpose, as he buys exclusively for cash, his
customers have the benefit of the fact In the
low rates at which he is enabled to sell to them
in turn. Mr.. Markriter conducts his business
with an honorable fairness that fully entities
him to the respect and confidence he enjoys in
the community. We believe no customer ever
had occasion to regret dealing at his establish
ment, or found his goods a shade different from
what they were represented by him to be.

Mn. EDITOR Fearing that my line Of
communication would be cut of if longer
unprotected, I hare detailed fifty Copper
heads for picket duty, and posted them
along the line as far as Point Lookout,
What the result will be I have yet to learn,
suppose it is "all quiet along the lines
at the Point, but democratic New York
City is far from "ditto." The draft which
commenced over week ago, seemed not
to be relished with the gusto that some
people imagined, and the drafted would
not 90 ''off in transports" over the news.
About twenty-five hundred, mostly "fel-
les from the ould Dart" armed with clubs,
stones, bars of iron, and every missile that
they could bring to their aid. might be
seen rampaging furiously about the city,
killing, beating, or mangling every well
dressed citizen or opponent they met. The
colored people were no where ont of dam
ger The uniformed militia being absent,
the insurgents had full play, and sacked
and burned every house they chose The
Colored Orphan Asylum was burned to the
ground, but the inmates were rescued and
sent to RandalIs Island. The house of
Mrs Gibbons, in Goth street, was sacked,
and every article taken out. Books were
thrown to the ground, where they were
eagerly gathered by the crowd and torn
into hundreds of pieces Not window or
blind was left in the house; everything
was destroyed, and the furious mob would
have fred il had they not been dispersed
BY an armed force of special police. One
young man Hyde made speech on the
front steps, in relation TO the destroying of
private property, when he was pitched up
ON and badly beaten. Two policemen were
killed in the house by mistake, our militia
ry firing into them, thinking they were
some Of the pillagers. But | am happy to
tell you that the riots are no more, thanks
to our soldiers and the new " street sweep
ers" (cannon) that they managed so well.
The draft will be enforced, and the city, /
hope, placed under martial law. Argument
Of soldiers will be stationed at each enroll
ing Office, to quell any outbreak, and rig
orous prosecution Of the draft be made
Hurrah for our military Three cheers for
the Union, and death to the ringleaders of
the riot, whom we have imprisoned, and
whom we mean to hang. | would like to
talk with you much longer, but Time is
merciless tyrant, and calls me away. Ho-
ping that the patients are rapidly recover
ing under the kind care Of their good doc
tors and nurses, I remain sincere we'll
wisher to the people of the Hammond Hos
pital. Is. I. SEAMAN.

some stirring incidents, having tendency
to materially change the complexion of al
fairs at this Post The recent visit of the
distinguished Cabinet and military officers,
noticed in our last, it has transpired, was
made with o view to the examination of
this locality, and deciding upon its adspta-
ton as depot for rebel prisoners That
they did not debate the subject to any very
great length is evident from the fact that
in four days after their departure, steam
or was lying at our wharf laden with
large amount Of camp and garrison equip
page, designed for the use of the proposed
depot. About noon of the same day (Fri-
day. Capt. Nelson Plato, Asst. Quarter
master, arrived on board the steam tug
Col. Sawteli, with instructions to proceed
to erect suitable buildings, such as dining
rooms, officers quarters, warehouses, DC.
The Captain has entered vigorously upon
the discharge of his duties, and in very
y short time will have accommodations for at
least 5000 prisoners. A considerable force
is to be Immediately sent here, under the
command of Gen. Marston, for the purpose
of guarding the prisoners. Ofcourse Gen.
Marston will have entire control Of the
camp, and all the departments connected
with it. The General Is from New Hamp-
shire, and was Representative from that
State in the Both Congress. We have not
been advised as to what portion of the army
the troops destined for this place viii be
drawn from, but We apprehend they will
comprise those raised for the defense of this
State.
Immediately following the order for the
establishment of the depot came another
from the same source. directing the remo-
val of oil families of officers and civilians,
and of all persons not in the employ of the
government, from off the Point. This
latter order was promulgated on Sunday
morning by Capt. Edwards, Depot Quar-
termaster.
The steamer Sylvan Shore, which came
down on Sunday evening for the purpose
of conveying the families to Washington,
started OH her return yesterday at noon,
not having remained, as we are informed by
some of the parties interested; the time
which was stated in the order.
