the Army Of the Potomac.
-.About week ago battalion of negro SOL
diers visited Winchester, where they femafn-
ca several hours, but did no damage during
! their stay. a gentleman who saw them says
they seemed to be detected, and looked more
Ike prisoners under guard Of the faw white
soldiers who accompanied them than soldiers
with arms in their hands

Correspondence Of the Richmond nispatch.1
| BRISTOL, April 4, 16Gl.-Thcre Ia no news
in this department that would be proper to
publish Where Longstreet Is going or what
| he intends to do NO one knows, and ought
| not to tell il be did. Que thing, however,
can write which is gratifying, and that Is,
notwithstanding the gloomy weather OF the
| past two weeks, attended With snow, mud
and rain, the troops are all in fine spirits and
ready for an! tbing that may "turn up" Tho
same enthusiasm which prevailed at the
beginning of the War seems to have burst
forth anew, and, sincerely hope, to be prop
| er1y directed. What has produced it is hard
to say; whether the recent legislation in
| Congress, showing for the first time on the
Part of our rulers some appreciation Of the
magnitude Of the contest, or the apathy on
| the part Of our enemies, cyiacIny uearncss
| OF q hopeless war, OF more probably an iu-
| creaajnr disgust for them produced by tbpir
| cruelties npd barbarl.1n,
| Every Southern soldier now feels that there
