In the First Circle.

For the first time, perhaps, in the his
tory of our country, the proud, the vain,
and the ambitious, have no anxiety to be
counted Gin the First Glass;" in the d.
vision of society, while those who have
long been excluded from the first circles,
suddenly find themselves posted upon the
streets, by authority, as belonging to the
"First Glass; and, from appearances, they
now think about as little of the "First
Glass " as it formerly thought of them.
The "Sccend Glass is now preferred by
all, and many even seek to obtain recog-
milton in this desirable circle of moderately
happy people by false pretences.
But We started out for the purpose of
giving a scene that occurred at one OF the
Provost Marshal's all right in this place,
giving names of those subject to draft.
Two stalwart representatives of Africa
were seen earnestly porting over one of
these lists, few days since, carefully
spelling out each name, when suddenly
the countenance of one of them bright
ened up, his eyes protruded from their
sockets, and his ivory glistened with I'M
wonted whiteness as he turned to his COM
rade and said:

not cross. Craig's creek, the way they came,
they changed their course, going in the direc-

they had twelve thousand men, but that their
force had been divided, and a portion gone in
another direction. Among the prisoners cap
tured was Capt. Porteaux, Acting Quartermas-
ter of the post. Many servants went off with
them.

From the Southern Cores of London Times.
A long conversation with Col. Rains,
the Superintendent of the Government
Powder Mills in Augusta, and also the
manager of the Arsenal of Construction
and of the cannon foundry in this city,
has taught me more than ever to admire
the ingenuity and energy which the Ccn-
federates have brought to bear upon their
struggle Starting without any powder
mill in the Southern States, except small
one at Nashville, which soon passed out
of their hands without any large estab-
lishment for making machinery, and with
