Rebels Drawing Supplies from the North.
The New York Times publishes several
documents proving that the rebels have
been drawing their supplies largely from
the United States. Application was made
by Mr.. John T. Chichester, Of Arkansas,
to suthorize him to dispose of cotton for
sneh supplies as might be needed. The
contract entered iHtU under rsuthurtty OF
the War Department with Chichester is
publisIla by which it is made evident
that the rebel army was supplied with
clothing, hardware, and other articles of
which they were entirely destitute. The
Times remarks on the subject:
The Especial agents" sent out into that
region by the Secretary Of the Treasury,
undoubtedly had very large powers con-
fded to them in regard to trade with the
Southern States; but it can hardly be sup
posed that they we're authorized to supply
the rebel armies with clothing provisions,
hardware, and other articles Of which they
we're most destitute. If they have any
such authority, 1t should either be revoked
or the war should be stopped. 1t is scarce
! ly worth while to maintain an army of
soldiers to fight the rebels, if an army Of
ofice-holders is also in the field with su-
thority to feed them.

A Brilliant Style Of Political Strategy.
The men and newspapers who are sOrely
trying,to trumpet Mcclellan into notOri-
ETY. are on q new tack. 1t seems accord
ing to these COpperhesds that Little Mac
took cut pstentright on all the routes to
Richmond, so that that distinguished
killer of rebels, Unoonditions Surrender
Grant, can't take Richmond without re-
lecting immortal honors on the brow of
the Great Unready. The leading Copper
head bugleman of New York City says of
Gen. Grants probable plan of attack on
Richmond.
It is alike honorable to the military
talents and the moral elevation Of the
successor, that he renounces all vain
pride Of originality, and adopts the judg-
meht Of q maligned predecessor.
This is new discovery in military
strategy worthy of the great Jomini him
self. Mcclellan has a patent right on the
capture Of Richmond. It can never be
taken, therefore, without infringing on
his monopoly. His must be the glory.

that road down by the field?'' The General
says, "Of course, Paul, you can do it, and,
as the night is very cold, / will give you ten
dollars in gold, to help you along" The gold,
and the prospect of sugar and coffee, were
too much for any poor mans nerves, and he
yielded and getting on a horse, he took them
seven miles to the big road.
From this time forward, he had a series
Of adventures and escapes: all very wonder
ful, until he got near another river in Ten
nessee, when he resolved to go up to house
and find the way. Hines went to the house,
while the General stood in the road. Hear
ing body of cavalry come dashing up be-
hind him, he quietly slipped to one side of
the road and it passed by without observing
him. They went travelling after Hines, and,
poor fellow, he has not been heard of since.
How sad to think that he should be cap
tured or killed after so many brave efforts,
not only In his own behalf, but also in that
of the General, for the General SAYS
that it Is owing chiefly to Illness enterprise
and skill that they made their escape.
When he arrived at the river referred to
above he tried to get over, intending to stop
that nightwith good Southern man on the
other side. He could not get over, and had
to stop at the house of Union man. The
next morning he went to the house that he
had sought the night previous and found the
track of the Yankees scarcely cold. They
had been there all night, expecting that he
would come there, and had murdered every
body who had attempted to reach the house,
without hailing them. In pursuing this
brutal course, they had killed three young
men, neighbors of this gentleman, and
went away, leaving their dead bodies on the
ground.
After he had crossed Okey's river, and
got into Middle Tennessee, he found it al
most impossible to avoid recognition. At
one time he passed some poor women, and
one of them commenced clapping her hands,
and said, 'Oh, know who that Isl l know
who that isl" but, catching herself, she
stopped short, and passed on with her COM
panions.
The General says that his escape was
made entirely without the assistance of any
one on the outside, and so far as he knows,
without their knowledge of his intention;
that the announcement of his arrival at
Toronto was one of those fortuitious COIN
cidences that can not be accounted for; that
1t assisted him materially, no doubt. In
fact, he says that his wife's prayers saved
him, and, as this is the most agreeable way
of explaining it, he is determined to believe
it.
The above account may be relied on as
correct; and although much has been left
out, yet enough is printed to stamp it as
one of the most remarkable escapes In his
tory.

Extensive Raid i'm Virginia by
Gen. Mason.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 18.-T'he American has
letter, dated Point Lookout, Jan. 10th,
giving an account of an extensive raid in
Westmorland, Northumberland and Rich
mond counties, Va, by Brig Gen. Mason.
His command consisted of 300 infantry and
150 cavalry, and embarked from Point
Lookout on the 18th. The command march
ed to Warsaw Courthouse, Richmond
county, captured and destroyed large
quantity of pork and bacon collected there
by the rebel government captured rebel
and several other prisoners, and destroyed
grain, etc.
From Warsaw they proceeded to Union
Wharf, on the Rappahannock, and commu-
nicated with the gunboats. They then
moved down the river, crossed Farnhams
creek, and burned large bridge. Some
skirmishing occurred at this point with the
rebel cavalry.
The next morning they marched for Lit
tie Waltham and destroyed a quantity of
grain and other produce, and after slight
skirmish with small body of rebel cavalry
they moved on to Lancaster Court House,
where the main command halted, and Lieut..
Dickerson, of the 9th cavalry, was sent to
Killanock, ten miles distant, and from that
point detachment was sent out which
burned an extensive tannery and a large
amount of leather, hides, machinery, oil,
etc.
That night the command marched to a
point on the Wycomico river. They ex-
pected to meet the infantry force and gun
boats. On the 14th they moved up the
Wycomico to point where the command
was reshipped and returned to Point Look
out, after an absence of three days. Only
one man was killed. Twenty-Five prisoners
were taken, and sixty horses twenty mules,
siXty-tive head of cattle and one hundred
and six Sheep were captured.

News from Richmond Papers.

New YORK, Jan. 19.-Richmond papers
report the passage by Congress of bill to
conscript.all men who have heretofore fur
nished substitutes. This will curtail the
working of the railroads. The Enquirer
says all Virginia railroad iron is nearly
worn out, and so are themen working them.
The Examiner says there is no prospect OF
any considerable crops this year in several
of the fertile counties of Southwestern Vir-
ginia. Inview of the foregoing named law,
farmers have hired their field hands to man.
ufacturing companies or sent them to cities
and towns for employment. No corn will
be raised and but little oats or wheat, which
will barely suffice for home consumption.
The conscription of all old soldiers in the
rebel armies whose term shortly expires, is
urged in memorial to the rebel Congress
by Gems. Hardee, Cheatham, Breckenridge
and others,

New YORK, Jan. 1a-Japan letters to the
Tribune, dated Oct. 3lst, say: The Prince
of Negatee had repaired his batteries, shat
tered by the Wyoming, and bade defiance
to all commerce. The foreign represents
tives urged the Tycoon Government to put
down this chieftain, and the Government
gravely replied that an expedition had al
ready been set on foot. The Prince of Ar
va also admonishes foreigners not to ap-
proach his dominions. Magasuki is filled
with outlaw soldiers from the Nagatise
country, and the Governor declares himself
unable to protect foreigners. A French
officer had been murdered, but no redress
was sought by the French Minister, who
simply referred the matter to his Govern,
ment, which will doubtless take decided
stems. -
