Specification -
Clothing and Feeding the Rebel
Soldiers.

Accounts from reliable sources state that
Gen. Lees Troops on the south side of the
Rapidan are Being Supplied with new cloth
ing. ,bpots tapd .AAoes. Also that their ~rations
coffee passed through Petersburg, Va, a few
days ago, on the way to Lees army.
Longstreet's forces are known 10 be more
plentiful!y supplied than any of the other
rebel armies. They have lately taken posses
SIGN of soucc of the very best foraging grounds
in East Tenpessce, and, besides this source ,of
supply, ''theJ draw .corn and,meat in abun
dance 'trom the uneShlusted country of West
ern North Carolina. 1t is said that in these
back counties. corp is rient full, and can be
b. uIht for one dollar per bushel, while meats
of all kinds are abundant, including poultry,
turkeys selling at three dollars each. Long
streets troops are also being supplied with
new clothing, boots and shoes. The general
distribution Of clothing and shoe 1eathe r
among the rebel troops at this time, is very
significant Of preparation, en- their Fart, for
aggressive movements.
As late letters from our Knoxville army ex-
press confidently the opiaion that General
Lee is going to abandon Virginia, we give
the following from the Washington correspond
ence of the St. Louis Republican:
ga portion of Gen. Lees troops are now
engaged in re-laying the plank upon the plank
road between Fredericksburg and Orange Court
House. Evidences of the fact were discover
ed during the late reconnaissance by our for
ces across the Rapidan, and it is now confirm
ed by a report in the Richmond papers, sta.
ting that Mrs. General Lee lately presented a
party of soldiers engaged in the work with
thirty-seven pairs of gloves made by her own
hands. The object of the rebel General in
repairing this road at this time is a matter of
much speculation among our military guild
nuncs. One thing is generally conceded
that it is pretty good evidence he has no no.
tion of taking the back track, and is psepar-
ing to have every possible advantage in the
struggle which must come off in that quarter
should he remain there till April!-Rqin

sA- The English Lieutenant Colonel Fireman
tie, in his book entitled s.Three Months in the
Southern States in 1863" says Most GER
tainly the civil law is not overruled by the mil

testimony ofan accomplished and appropriated
foreigner, who freely crticises the Souih and

lying which our northern Abolitionists resort
to in alrtheir dealings with that people.

p@While in prison, after planning his escape,
John Morgan wrote to a lady friend in a pc
culiar cipher, when read the usual manner,
contained nothing contraband. Acting on the
information thus secretly conveyed, thu young
lady sent John some books, in the back of one
of which she concealed some Greenbacks, and
wrote her name across the place to indicate
where the money was deposited. The money
thus sent enabled Morgan to pay the expenses
of his escape. So it is said.
