SCENES IN Wilson'S RA1D-A Yankee correspon-
dent who accompanied Wilson his last raid, gives
the following sketch of the conduct Of the negroes sedu
ced by the raiders from their homes:
We had scarcely marched ten miles on the late expe
dillon when the negroes began to rally round our flag
and the number with rapidly increased STILL feel per
ecty safe in saying, two thousand contrabands of all
ages followed the expedition.
It was amusing sight to witness the manner in
which they ill., and see the taste they displayed
in Sc Letting articles to carry along into the promised
land for it seemed to be settled opinion with them
that when they reached Yankeedom they were in
the land of promise sure huff" wench dressed in
some cotton stuff, enough for gunny bags dirty
and greasy wthal the sacks pork merchants encase
sides Of bacon in, would steal her mistress fashionable
bonnet ornate with marvellous ribbons and wonderful
pumes and flower and with this upon her head she
would rudge along through the dust supremelY proud
of her fnery and thinking herself attractive as an
African Venus.
Some of the women would take articles along with
them of no earthly utility. Occasionally one could b.
carrying huge mirror, another china wash-bow
pitcher other article of crockery of equal
ly doubtful utility Some boy, whose master had ska-
dadded would steal his clothes, even to bis cane
gloves and hat and, mounted on gay and prancing
steed which he had purloined, he would ride about
swelling like peacock, and looking down upon his
walking companions with the imperious air of a Mag
nus Apollo. How the women and children managed &c
keep up with US | cannot conceive From the 22d o.
June till the present they have followed Us, notwith
standing the fact that at times scarcely rested tor
hour in ortyeight and in twenty four hours have
marched more than sixty miles. Yet the poor creatures
follow, painting and perspiring, still keeping up.
Many of them joined US mounted on either horses OF
ules, and these wanted in the batteries and
wagons they were taken from them. A large lumber
of carts, wagons, carriages coaches barouches, and
vehicles ofevery description brought into our lines
but have since fallen the han ds of the enemy The
rebel cavalry sabred many of the negroes who fell into

VANITY 1t was really appalling to hear the beartrepd
ing shrieks of the and children the rebels
dashed into them, firing their carbnes among them and
cutting them down with their sabres Probably q
thousand men, women and children followed US to our
lines.
