The City Of Richmond.

Richmond, by the last census, had
population of $4,000 souls, but the great
influx of civil aud military Offices and
refugees from other parts of the State
has probably raised 1t to a much larger
figure. 1t is situated at the head Of tide
water, at the lower falls of James River,
$50 miles from its mouth. The city &C.
cupies most picturesque situation, being
built on Richmond and Shockoe bills,
which are separated by Shockoe Creek,
and surrounded by beautiful scenery. 1t
is regularly laid out and well built, the
streets, which are lighted with gax, cross
ing each other at right angles. Or
Shoekoe Hill are the State Capitol and
other public buildings. The Capitol is
an imposing edifce, and contains in its
central hall Houden's celebrated statue of
Washington. On the east of the square
is the Gov ernor's mansion. jeff Davis
residence is private mansion, which was
purchased for him by the rebel govern
ment, The city has many fine public
buildings, 6 banks, l3 newspapers and
% churches. In one of the three Pres
byterian churches, jeff Davis worships.
The falls of James River afford immense
power, and there are very extensive facto-
ries, including four cotton and about fifty
tobacco factories, four mills, rolling mills,
FORCES, furnaces, machine shops, etc., the
latter of which, and particularly the
Tredegar Iron Works, have been of i'm
mense service to the rebels in turning out
ordnance and materials of war. The an
nual exports of Richmond before the war
reached nearly S7,000,000, and its i'm
ports S750,000. But since 1t had the
honor of being the rebel capitol, its fore
ign commerce has been extinguished -
Vessels or gunboats drawing ten feet Of
water can ascend to within mile of the
city at a place called the Rockets. Yes
sells of fifteen feet draft ascend to War
wick, three miles below. A canal ha:
been built around the Falls, and abov,
them there is navigation for two hundred
miles. The James River aud Kanawh;
Canal, intended to extend to CoviugtoD
is completed for 200 miles. Richmond
has very extensive railroad communica
tons, being the terminus of five roads
running to Fredericksburg and the Poto
mac. to West Point and the York River
Petersburg and Norfolk, to Danvllle, Va.
to JacksOn's River, by the Central Rail
road-and from these, connections leaC
all through the Southern States. Oppo
site the city are the two towns of Sprin!
Hill and Manchester. Richmond wa
founded in 1742, became the capital o
the State of Virginia in 1873, aud il
June, 1861, it was made the Seat o
Government of the Confederate State
{ of America" whose Congress assemble
there on July goth. Its history sine
then is only too familiar. Around tn
city are various hills, extending a grea
distance, on the most important Of whic

editorial remarks upon the proceedings of
the Baltimore Convention, or making any
extended remarks regarding the past pa
triotic services of Messrs. LINCOLN and

for Vice President has been lifelong

From Gen. Hunter.

The news from Gen. Hunter is import
ant. lie fought and defeated rebel
force under Jones, twelve miles from
Staunton, on Sunday last, the Rebel
commander being killed, and the action
followed by the occupation of Staunton.
The intelligence is from Richmond papers
of the eth, and comes simultaneously
from the headquarters Of Gen. Grant and
Gen Butler. There can be no doubt of
It's accuracy.
S,sunton is the most important west.
crn station of the Virginia Central Rail
road, and almost from the beginning of
the war has been an objective point
constantly attempted but never reached.
1t is but sixty miles from Lyncbburg and
thirty-fve from Charlottesville. It's pre-.
sent seizure makes its clear that General
Hunter is to meet the advance of Gen.
Crooke, who moves from West Virginia
up the Tennessee Railroad. at I.ynchburg,
and the success of the battle on Sunday is
sufficient to show that no force remains in
Central Virginia to oppose this movement.
Lee has had to call in the main force
heretofore detailed for the protection OF
these vital points-one other evidence OF
the terrible stress rut upon him by the
operations of Gen. Grant
