THE DEFENoEs OF RICHMOND. The Nav
York Times says A refugee from Richmond n"
ports that the defeuces of that city are yery eT-
tensiVe and elaborate. They are in the form Of
a aemicirole, the outer embankment being con.
un9ous, almost without break, around the city.
Inside OF this. another line Of entrehcbments
extends around the city, with frequent breaks.
BetWeen the two is fine military road, SO tbat
1t is easy to reinforce any part Of the defence
at short notice. These Notifications are heavily
armed with the best Of artillery. What seems
strange 10 rs, at this distance, is that these ex
tensive fortifcatons are not manned bv anv cor
siderable force, but the citizens are formed into
companies, ready at the tap Of the drum 70 proe
ceed to the entertainments to resist invasion. A
large picket force is stationed outside the lines
and II is expected If any attacking force an
proaehes, that the alarm can be given In season
Tor every man to be at his post. There d no
considerable force Of regular military in the
about thirty miles, and can reinforce the boms
militia at short notice. ''''

al here this morning learn that the eGii United
states Colored Regiment is to receive its colOrs
to morrow, prior to it's embark alton for AnnapO-
lis, and very much regret that an important
official engagement in New England to-morrov
will deprive me Of the pleasure Of being present
at the presentation
As this regiment 10 10 he 10 he gth Army
Corps, opportunities will no doubt ariss ia ilis
future for me 10 add my share Of encouragsnsn,
to H. members in starting out upon their new
work. But no Opportunity will properly offer Ia
the future when could 60 well expresH TO your
most honorable and loyal association my high
appreciation OF your very sucgessful work in or.
ganizing this regiment, and my sincere thanks to
the patriotic ladies who present the colors, for
their kind, generous aad considerate treatment
Of regiment which is TO be attached TO the
corps which have the honor 10 command
1t may not be amiss for me to mention y re
mark made by me at a breakfast given at the
Astor House, in New York, 10 1860, TO the off,
GERS OF one Of my Massachusetts, regiments. then
Gu route for Annapolis, preparatory TO starting
on our North Carolina expedition.
II was on the morning that we heard ol
DupOnt's success on the coast Of South Carolina.
| said:
alt should be a source Of congraiuation to
every loyal person that lOdgment had been
made by Union troops upon that portion of the
Southern coast Where slavery exists to the max.
imum extent. The monslrous assertion has
bee n made by the traitors that their new Gov.
ernment is to have slavery for it's cornerstone.
and that the institution can be used Uy them as
positive belligerent force. And now we will
have an opportunity of determining whether or
not this force cannot be turned to our own &C.
counti and it is clearly the duty Of every gene
raj in the field to neutralize, or to turn 10 his
own account, any force that he may find himself
confronted with by the enamy, whether it be &C
tive or latent"
Aud now, sir, your association is to send to-
morrow TO The same rendezvous, Annapolis. A
regiment, the rank and file Of which are colored
men, many of whom were in November, 1861
producing by their labor food for traitors in
arms, or doihg other work which enabled armed
traitors to leave their homes for the purpose of
striking at the Government that h I'd done them
nought but good.

row,
Very sincerely your friend,

election is approaching, venture on another

A Hint: for the First Of April.


The following hoax is described in the London
Court Journal:
good deal of amusement has been caused by
o hoax, said to be gotten up by certain fast
young ladies'. They fabricated a love-lelter,
drawn up in very passionate terms, and sent
comics Of ii to sixty gentlemen, requesting each
one to meet certain admirer under the post
office clock, at half-past eight O'Clock, on Friday
evening, each gentleman TO wear a white rosette.
Most Of the receivers Of the love- letter supposed
that he alone was the happy man to whom some
forlorn dsmuel had never told her love till be re-
ceived the epistle, which ran as follows;
"MY DEAR SfR 1 have tried to conceal my
love for you, but cannot endure il any longer.
have never ceased to love you since the first hour
! beheld you, and if you know what unrequlted
passion 49, am sure you will pity and forgive
your devoted admirer. II you will have the
kindness to favor me with an interview to-mor-
row evening friday at half-past eight, under
the post Office clock, shall be able to ease my
mind. Pray wear little white rosette in your
hutOnhOle, that may not mistake. l shall be
dressed in black silk and pink bonnet.
"a. C. j."
Several Of the gentlemen who received the
episile suspected that it was q hoax, but most of
the receivers repaired to the place OF rendezvous
at the appointed time, wearing roscttes. Watch
ers we're on the lockout, enjoying the fun, while
the gay Lotharios recognized each other wearing
the rosettes, and knes al once that somebody
had been fooling them, Within half an hour
hfty-two gentlemen wearing rosettes appeared
under the clock, chaifed each other and disap-
peared again. Meantime, at some corners near
the pos, ott,e,
THE mirh and fun ran fah Aai fufion.'
The best Of the joke was that moa, Of the parties
who met under the clock wearing r9seties we're
friends and aeqlaintaaces, and q course each
one knew that he had pisyed the fool
