authorities that guerrilla depredations upon
loyal people in and about Alexandria might be
eftectually stopped by adopting the course
pursued in the West, viz: assessing upon
known disloyalists the amount OF losses sus-
tanned by Union men. The reason given Is

fax County are in daily communication with
these robbers and horse thieves, and it is
through inform alton conveyed by them that
