Brutality Of Yun&ee Generazs.-The
Richmond Examiner relates the following
declarations Of Gen. Warren and Gen.
Grant -
A poor lady, Mrs. Cory, resided near
Bethesda church. Of course she was Wis
tied, and her house was stripped OF every
thing she had. Il OF SO much as a meaj Z
victuas were left to keep life LII her bod Y:
aud she had two sick children The poor,
lone, desolate, plundered women, in be
half of those little suffering children, be-
sought permission from this so-called Gen.
Warren, to buy few Of the stores, her
own property, OF which she had been rob
bed and as though he was the retired
shoddy of sold out establishment, pie
thorc with wealth, he replied keep
nothing for sale" Then said the half fran
tic women Gas the Richmond Examiner
repeats it) II will beg. Give ME, for Gods
sake, neal of meat for my sick chill
dren." This was Southern, Vlrglnla
natron, who had lived in comfort on her
own property; and it WAS for the small
pitance of this single meal, from her own
stores, that she was lmplorlng. for an ob-
ject that might we'll have moved to pity a
devil in hell. We confess our hair rises
to an end as we record the answer that is
sned from the lips of this heartless villain.
"Naauna, zoe read that during the s61ye o.
Jerusalem, aO0nse1a aOere 7eauceG to cot
tHeaz. chiLcren He had studied the ques-
tion-had read the history OF like events,
and toreseeing that in the course Of his
military career lie mis- lit find some weak
mother, far enough from succor, and suf-
ticiently in his power, @to enable. him to
bring to bear the acquisitions Of his lnfai-
lectual labors, 10 with what studied,
calm, complacent denleanor he uttered
the passage from history-S<w were
reduced to eat their children"
The picture is an impressive one-the
lordly. General and his suppliant. 1t COM
mends itself to every man within whose
bosom lives a spark Of courage or human
ity-who is not prepared to be a dog
who is not already meaner than dog.
Another instance is that of an inter-
view between Virginia mother and
Grant. This one was the mother OF Con
federate sons; and having fallen within
the yankee lines, she sought and obtained
an interview with Gen Grant, and asked
for passport to enable her: 20 get to Rich
mond, with her friends. "You are better
where you are. When I enter Richmond,
women's persons will not be safe"
These scenes are verified. They are
true-saith the Examiner This last was
addressed by the commanding General of
the yankee army Grant-and thus we
are assured that when he enters Rich
mond, all the acts foreshadowed in the ne
farious programme Of Dah!gren, are to be
performed. Rapine, lust, slaughter, con-
Migration are to be let loose like unleash
ed hell hounds, to rage and riot-when
"women's persons will not be safe"
ANoTH sR Tory RA1D.-A band Of Ten
nessee Tories, numbering so, made a de-
scent Oh Catalooche, in Haywood county,
on Sunday night last. They captured aud
carried off Young Bennett, Esq, and his
son, and Mr.. Levi Caldwell and his son,
all respectable citizens They also carried
off quite number of horses. Henry's
scouts, at last accounts, were on their trail,
and woe be to the rascals if they overtake
them.- AsAeville Neecs.

Der OF at least three Or four hundred, are
