There is constant travel 20 aud from the

they risk enduring in returning.
a flag of truce came in q fortnight since,
bringing nine hundred women and children,
whose husbands, br0thers, fathers and friends
are with US. These women were subjected to
bsrbarous indignities. They were crowded into
one large saloon, and one by one, taken to q
corner and examined. They were stripped to
their last garments (cqmiSas) and their persons
indecorously felt from head to foot, for articles

shoes and stockings taken of.
