a Sensible Disposition of the
EOutrubaN13s..


Gen. Doubleday, enc of the wiscst, as well
a. one Of the most skillfll officers in the ser
vice, has suggested the following disposition
Of the contrabands in Northern Virginia. He
says that every day fugitives come into camp,
and there being no provision for the reception
and care Of them, they arc suffered to wan
der about the country, and are too frequently
picked up and taken beyond the RaRpah1n'
mock to do work for the enemy. Gen. Double.
day recommends that the most available Of
the numerous peninsulas along the Potomac
and Chesapeake Bay be fortified across their
narrow nccks, and used as places Of refuge
for the negroes. They would thus be able to
defend themselves, and the fish and oysters
in tAe bay would give them employment aud
sustcnancc. As an example Of a suitable 10.
| cality, he indlcatcs Matthias Point: 4 line Of
Notifications across its neck would afford pro
lection to thousands Of these wanderers In
the wilderness at very light expense to the
Government, One advantage secured would
uc the establishment OF places Of refuge, to
which all inquiring fugitiyes could be direct.

that the country is in complete revolt. Ac-
cording to the arrangements OF the revolu-
tionnry party, the outbreak WITS not to take

place ut many points with varied results All
the 1c1egrapbic lines arc broken, and on the
Warsaw and St. Petersburg and the Vienna
Railways, the rails are torn up and carried off.
On the Warsaw and St. Petersburg line the In
surgeuts have haYc burnt the bridge. All the
lines have become insecure, and it will cost
the Government much trouble to become
masters OF the movement. The insurgents
seem to be about to carry On guerilla war.
