"The war was all over :,
And tho harvaat hal come"

Everybody appeared interested in the
latest news from the seat of war; and the
lively little Sunday paper, which appeared
on the occasion was "gobbled up" with an
avidity which soon exhausted the edition,
and which occasioned considerable growl-
ing among those who failed to get the latest
impression. 7a.s.#
Such Sundays as the last would astonish
the denizens of other towns but the Capt.
tai city is becoming accustomed to them.

THE CITY.

SUNDAY IN THE CIrY.-Yesterday was
lively Sunday in Columbus. The morning,
meterologically considered, was a beauty,
unlike the afternoon, which was wet and
gloomy. The church-going people were
out in full force, and the non-church going
people we're not far behind in number
The town seemed like camp on Sunday.
The several regiments Of three months vol
unteers, who marched to the Arsenal for
their arms, and from thence to the depot,
made the streets lively with the familiar
rubby-de-dub of their bass and snare
drums, and the shrill discord of their flies.
Several times the boys added hearty huz-
"a to the martial music, which gave rise to
the impression in Sodom and other suburbs

DARING RoBBERY-MAN KNOCKED Down
IN DAYLIGHT most audacious robbery
that has been perpetrated in this city oc-
Cured Saturday forenoon, near the depot.
A gentleman by the name of Guthrie,
standing alone just outside of the Union
Depot, was suddenly knocked down by
some person unknown, and robbed of a
valuable gold watch. So sudden and un-
expected was the attack that before Guthrie
had time to recover from the blow the rob-
ber disappeared, and the victim not having
seen him, could not recognize the thief, and
SO he made good his.escape.
