THE GLARE UP" :"

A CARD.-F. II. Peirpoint, Governor OF
Virginia, in card published in the New York
Tribune of the 23d instant, denies having
stated to me that the people Of Virginia would
not consent to be taxed to pay the government
debt. and also denies that | directed him to
leave my Office.
In answer to the denial | state unquallhedly
that Governor Peirpoint did express the sentl-
ments imputed to him, not, however, IN the
precise words imputed to him in the dispatch
to which he alludes, but in more Objectionable
and offensive language and l also affirm that
7 did direct him to leave my Office.
A highly respectable gentleman MI Chas.
D. Smith, brother of the Hon. Jas. G. Smith,
one Of the Justices of the Supreme Court OF
the State OF New York, was present and heard
the whole conversation.
[ will state, further, that l had nothing
whatever to do, directly or indirectly, IN pro
curing the publication of the dispatch to which
Governor Peirpoint alludes, and do not now
know from whom your careful and reliable re-
porter procured his information.
twill be noticed that Governor Pelrpolnt
does not deny that he entertalns the views ex-
pressed to me. FREEMAN CLARKE

THE EASTERN LUNATIC ASYLUM.
To the Editor Of the Wing /:

| 10 vie E1tOr OF the Hhy
After nearly three years absence, returned
few days ago to my home 10 Williamsburg, the
az cient metropolis Of tue Old Dominion. Many
changes have taken place consequent upon war,
but of these do not propose to speak. write OF
one Of the noble charities Of Firgi la, the Eastern
Lunatic Asylum, which, for the mot part since
the death Of the lamented DR.. Gait, has been
der the supervision and man igement of DR.. Peter
Wager, Of Philadelphia. 1t is excee iDgly crafty
ing TO know that amidst the desOlations and raya-
geS Of our ratricida war, this institution has been
scrUpul usly guarded and protected, and every
cafe and attention bestowed upon its unfortunate
inmates. The buildings and walls and grounds at
tached are in excellent condition. The yards are
neat and cean-particular care having been paid
to the flowers and shrubbery. The front yard con-
tains the statue of Lord Bottetourt, which was
removed from the College yard for safety after the
destruction OF the College by fire in 1862. was
particularly struck in passing with the neatness
and SueetneSS of the rooms. The floors were not
only clean, but polished, snd everything within
and without evinced clearly that nothing has been
omitted in caring for the wants and necessities OF
the pstents-they themselves, both male and fe-
male, being dressed in god and warm cloth ng, with
which they have been abundantly supplied, and their
appearance show that they have been well provided
with good and wholesome food. 1t Is fact wor-
thy Of note, aud which ought to be known through
out the land that in addition to the usual supplies
given, many of the luxuries of the seasons, such
oysters, &C., have been regularly furnished and
understand that the expense per capita has been
only four dollars and seventeen cents a week, in
Guiding everything. This is remarkable when We
consider the increased price Of everything during
the war, and doubtless will remain standard for
the future government Of the institution, and re-
fleets the highest credit upon the doctor in charge,
who is known TO be an able, skillful and talented
physician, as well as a kind and humane man. The
patients are devoted to and love him. and the cti.
zens regard him in the light of a benefactor.-
There in the institution at present one hundred
and seventy five inmates.
Mr.. Editor, I have written this for the double
purpose of doing simple justice to DR.. Wager and
the United States autn critics, and to inform the
relatives and friends of the patients how well they
have been cared for and protected, and hope you
will give it place in your valuable paper. Il.

FROM THE
ARMY OF THE POTOMAC.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF TIE POrOMAC, April
23.-Reports are current here that many of our
soldiers have been found murdered in the vicinity
Of houses through the country, but, notwithstaud-
ing careful inquiry, no confirmation OF these ru-
mors can be obtained. Squadrons Of cavalry, how.
CIV, r, have been sent TO scout the country and to
bring in no prisoners who are found with arms in
tn,ie hands, whether claiming TO be paroled or
not.
II is more than probable that If any Of our men
are murdered il is done y citizens in def-pce 9th
homes and amilies. for 1t is wei Own fact thit
some bad men, straggers from our army, are scat
10 Of for miles from the army lines, devoting their
attention TO plundering and outragng residents
Some Of the worst cases ever recorded baye been
reported within few days, and it is to be hoped
mat extreme measures will be q. once adopted to
tr z the miscreants who have perpetrsted them to
iIsuCes
: delegation Of citizens from Dauville came
through to hps Iarters yesterday with petition
from Il Pr dent and Directors Of the Richmond
ana Dauville Railroad, asking permission to repair
their road, saying that all the rolling stock was at
Dauv | c aud in good condition. The comnunca-
tkon was telegraphe1 TO Gen. Grant, who replied
that tAe request would be granted provided they
would take the oath Of allegiance, the Government
10 retain The right to take possession Of the road
at any time they see proper.
1t Is believed that the cars will b. running again
on this route in two three days. the ira TX is
almost in az good order as before Lees retreat
IL was learned from these gentlemen that Davis
bad been in DanvIlle some two or three weeks
since bu; that he had left, and his present where
sbou:s is unknown to them. Large numbers of
citizens appear daily at the Office of the Provost
Marshal at headq to take the oath, and ask
Jog that ther houses and property may be protect
ed by placing guards over them, that they may be
able TO save enough from che rapacity of s.rag-
glers to keep their families from starvation until
they can raise their crops during the coming sea-
son. Their requests, however, are refused on the
ground tnat it would require about corps Of the
army to supply all who ask, and this, of course,
cannot be thought OF. At the earnest solicitation
OF the citizens of Farmville for protection, the
10th New YORK Volunteers have been detailed as
gu ards for that town, aud will remain there until
things become settled.
The army still remains in the vicinity of Burks-
VILE Junction. No further change in It's dsposi-
ton will be made until official news is received
from Sherman. No troops from this army have
gone toward him, as it was believed that he was
FULLY able TO look after Johnston with the forces he
had. hcGREGoR.

NOTHING, says the Baltimore american, could
~ be more appropriate and becoming, in tone
aud in sentiment, than the addresses which Mr..
johnson has been called on to make since the duties
Of the Presidency devolved upon him. They are
weighty in manner and in matter. They indicate
enthusiastically that solemn sense of responsibility
which is the best guarantee for the faithful dis
charge of his high trust. His reserve in speaking
Of specific acts of administration is especially con-
Siderate and wise. In declaring that he shall act
upon each question as it may arise, and as may at
the time seem best, he lays down the golden rule
of all wise craftsmanship and gives strong assn
rance that the Government will be administered
with strict regard to the practical necessities and
emergencies of the hour. His speech to the H.
diana Delegation is the most significant indication
of his policy yet made. He declar for protecting
che loyal peoples State Governments, and disfran
chiSing the Rebel State Governments. This win
virtually recognize Governor Pierpont as Governor
OF Virginia, instead of submitting the question of
the division of the State to the Supreme Court as
che terms arranged between Sherman and Johnston
propose.
