THE YANKEES AT HuNTsylbLE.

The Selma Dispatch learns from reliable sources
that the citizens Of Huntsville, Alabama, have been
treated with more rigor by the Yankees since the
re occupation of the town7than before. The Dis
pdtci says
Dr.. Ross, OF the Presbyterian Chuxch, has been
banished from their lines and ordered South. II
seems that during the Yankee evacuation the Doctor
had, in a sermon, inveighed against the puslani-
nous conduct OF those person who had compromised
one had taken down such expressions aswers most
Offensive to the Yankees and reported them TO the
commanding officers on their return. The Doctor
was, therefore, arrested, confronted with bis re-
ported language and asked If he had used Il. He,
with accustomed courage and patriotism, acknOwl-
edged H. and received tie sentence OF Punishment:
Benz. Jolly, "a citizen OF Huntsville, who has had
the reputation, ever since the war began, OF being
Union and afhiiating with the Yankeesswhen-
ever they occupied the place, We'd with the most
patriotic citizens in extending Inequalities Aud in
vitatiOns to liquor to the Confederate officers and
soldiers when they got possession Of the city, Ii is
reported that when the Federals reoccupied the
city, they robbed Jolly of sll 900 in greenbacks,
brske up his furniture, &c, Threatened to hang him.
and he barely escaped with his life through the in
terpostion oil some loyal Yankee friend or friends.
So much Tor trying to please both sides.

sealed from Heaven, that ii our armies were dis
banded, and our people. were still unalterably de-
termiAed to resist Yankee rule over this land, that
such rule could not be maintained by five hundred
thousand Yankee soldiers - .
