LATEST ME WS.
AFTERNOON DISPATCHES.
From Washington.


WASHINGTON, March "A special to the
Herald says q note from the Army of the Po-
tomac, dated $50 this morning, says messen-
gers have come through from Fitzpatrick whom
they left some ten miles south of Hanover
Junction Wednesday morning. The command
had most thoroughly and eiiectually destroyed
the Virginia Central Railroad from Beaver
Dam to Hanover Junction, and the Rich
mond and Fredericksburg Railroad from the
Mallaiony Bridge to Pamunky River, the en-
tire distance destroyed being over forty miles.
There had been some skirmishing during the
advance, it was confined mostly to the right
flank of Kipatrcka command. As Wade
Hampton's rebel cavalry are known to be re-
occupying the country TO the west OF the line
of march taken by our cavalry 1t is probable
that his is the only force that has been engaged.
II the spoliation upon the lines of the two
roads is as complete as reported, Lee VIII be
compelled TO move his army from the present
position 70 subsist il, for unless the rebels have
facilities far greater than any we possess tor
constructing railroads it will ;ake them at
least four weeks to repair the damages. All
reports concur in estimating that at no time
has General Lees army had larger supply
than from six to ten days rations on hand.
II 10 reported that General Fitzpatrick found
the country through which he passed almost
destitute of food or forage for beasts, and as
his troops went in eight marching order he
has been compelled to push forward with all
possible speed

Message of the Governor of Lou
s4.u.lr lsAana. "n


The New York Ne,cs publishes the
message of Governor ALLEN, delivered at
Shreveport, to the Legislature of Louisi-
ana. 1t is significant in two points OF
view. First, it indicates the determination
of the Southern people never TO yield to
subiugation by Federal arms. And, Sec
ond, it demonstrates that the mode ia
which LINCOLN has chosen to prosecute the
war, is now the main reliance Of the
Southern leaders to. keep the rebellion
alive, and to fire the hearts of the people
with ferocious and undyipg hatred of the
Northern States. That misnamed cam
nesty Proclamation" really designed to
bring electoral votes to LINCOLN for the
Presidency, is commented upon with great
severity as ''the terms Of peace which the
bloody Moloch at Washington suggests to
his Congress" BUTLER's reign of vio-
lence and rapins in New Orleans is de-
tailed at length, and it's atrocious incidents
placed before the public mind IN the most
distinct and forcible words of the language.
The original causes of secession are no
longer alluded to as relied upon. The
unwarrantable and wicked purposes fol
which the war is waged, and the barbar'
ism which has marked its conduct in fal
too many districts of the South, are all
sufficient to unite the Southern people as
one man in defence of their homes and
families, to fill up the vacancies which
death has caused in the ranks Of the army
and to inspire them all with determine
ton to resist their enemies to the very last
In the light Of ali this, no one can fai
to see that il, after war, however unneces
safily, had besn resolved upon, it had beer
prosecuted for the maintenance of the Con
stitution and the enforcement of the laws
in conformity with the usages Of christian
and civilized nations, and without the ulte
rior and most wicked purposes which hav
long been developed, the Southern people
in despite Of any real traitors in thei
midst, would long since have returned t
their allegiance The leaders cannot hol
their people. even now, to the fiery trials
this rebellion, save by pointing to th
crimes which have been committed again'
them, and to the horrors which are j
store for them l-5l .i ..ot. Pa
