Raid into MARYLAND

[From the Marlborough Gazette, April 5th.l
Our comm unity was yesterday thrown into
a state OF intense excitement by the oecurrenc e
of a murder and robbery at "Croom' six miles
from Upper Marlboro. We learn that on
Monday night at an early hour three persons
entered the store Of John w lCofren, and after
purchasing some liquor demanded his money,
ana enforced the demand by Tie presentation
OF pistols. Mr.. Coffren being unarmed at the
time was compelled to 60 from his store house
to his dwelling, between two of the armed rob.
bers, who, after rifiing him Of all his money in
the house, returned to the store and demanded
other valuables. In the meantime Mr. Richard
N. Ryon and MI. jeremiah Coffren came to his
assistance, when general firing Of pistols en-
sued. Ryon threw down one Of the robbers,
(who vas dressed in Confederate uniform, and
gave his name as McCue, Of Nelson Co. Va.,)
and while on the ground McCue shot Ryon in
the abdomen. He survived until the next
morning, and died about ten o'clock. Mr..
Jeremiah Cohren was shot in the arm, but is
rot dangerously wounded. The three men
were on horseback Two Of their horses were
taken, and it is believed that the two escaped
men were wounded, as one of them was tracked
by blood to the woods. McCue was sec ured
by MT Coffren and some of the neighbors, and
yesterday detachment OF cavalry happening
to come by Groom on their way from St. Mary's
County, he was brought to this village and
taken to Annapolis. He said he was one Of
Mosby's men. Who the other parties are Is
not known, but they will be pursued by the
military authorities. Mr.. Coffren lost about
$500. Fortunately he had just returned from
Baltimore and had no more money. This
daring raid has created quite an excitement.

INTERESTING FROM RICHMOND.
Tho Extent efthe Fire-The Business Part
Of the Cry kntirely Destroyed - The
Whtg Legal Paper.
Adyices from Richmond down to Tuesday
morning have been received, and give de.
plorabie account Of the condition of Richmond.
On Sunday afternoon, before the evacuation,
Mayor Mayo and the City Council ordered all
LIQUOR to be destroyed. Heads Of barrels were
Knocked in and the contents emptied into the
streets, and bottles Of liquors that had com.
manded fabulous prices were broken on the
eurbstones. As consequence the rebel rear
guard became intoxicated and ungovernabls,
and terrible scene OF pillage and ruin ensued.
The stores were plundered Of jewelry, clothing
confectionery, &c, and the whole city was In
tumult with riotous proceedings. Great DAM
age was done by the explosion of the magazine,
against which il is said that General Breckin-
ridge earnestly demonstrated, but General
Ewell, to whom the work of destru ction had
been Entrusted, was infexible. Among the
victims to the explosion were all the inmates
OF the almshouse, close by, who were at the
time sound asleep in bed. The damage done
by the fire is enormous, all the business part of
the city, bounded by Main street and the river
and eth and 18th streets, being destroyed
Burning shingles were carried to other parts of
the city, setting fire 10 houses, and il is esti-
mated that not less than eight hundred buildings
were burned AmoAgthem are the Mechanics
institute, used by the War Departments the
Henrico county Court House, the old State
Court House, the Enquirer office, Dispatch
office, and The press rooms Of the Examiner,
Haxall's celebrated flour mills, Crews and
Smiths tobacco manufactures, and nearly all
the banks. The flames were finally arrested
by blowing up the (negro) Traders Bank, by
order of Gen. Shepley, who, upon entering the
city, assured the inhabitants Of protection, and
appointed Lieut.. Col. Manning Provost Mar
shall. A force OF white troops ere encamped
on Capitol Square, and Gen. sDevins has his
headquarters at the Governors House. The
colored troops are Toasted by the negro popu.
lation in the most extravagant manner, and

ing, by its proprietor, assisted by a former
editor, having given pledges to offer hearty
support to the Union cause. The hotels are
all virtually closed, owing to the scarcity of
food, and the restaurants with one or two ex-
ceptions, were all destroyed by fire.

The mail steamer James T. Brady arrived
here this morning from City Point, bringing up

entirei also rebel brigade band, which en-
livened the trip with some excellent music
This band, which numbers eighteen tnstru.
ments, marched into City Point at the head Of
five thousand prisoners on Tuesday, playing

The suffers, photographers and others doing
business at City Point and Bermuda Hundred
nave moved up to Petersburg, which already
begins to assume a business aspect Our troops
have gained the confidence of the citizens, who
express themselves greatly gratified as we'll as
surprised at the kind treatment they have re-
ceived. The merchants begin to feel perfectly
secure, and have opened their stores.
Besides the large quantity of tobacco de-
stroyed by the rebels at Petersburg, they burnt
eight cotton warehouses, containing over
$1,000 worth Of cotton
The rebel General A. p. Hill was killed at
Fort Malone in a fruitless effort to ra)ly his
men. He was buried st Peter burg, with
hurried military honors, on Sunday, previous
TO the evacuation OF the place by the rebels.
The work OF removing the distractions in
The James river Is progressing rapidly, and it
is believed that some.of our smaller class ves-
sells will be able to 60 up to Richmond by the
end Of the week.
All OF the rebel prisoners received at Citv
Point up to Tuesday have been sent to Fort.
ress Monroe and Point Lookout. They num.
Der about $4,000, but others are still being
brought in.
1t has been discovered that the rebels haya
committed acts OF the greatest barbarity upon
some OF our wounded. A number have been
found on the field with deep gashes In their
throats, and otherwise terribly cut with knives
by the rebels after they were wounded. Tue
men with their throats cut (which has not
proven fatal as YETI and one with his right
arm nearly severed from his body, were dis.
patched to Washington from City Point ON
Tuesday. They arrived here last night and
have been placed in hospitals.

well filled with letters. These mails have
been sent here to the War Department They

THE ACCIDENT TO SECRETARY SEWARD.

THE ACCIDENT TO sECRETARY SEWARD
In our third edition yesterday, we announ ced
a serious accident happening to Secretary Sew
ard. 1t appears that the Secretary, with Miss
Fannie Seward and Mr.. Frederick Seward,
started from his residence on 15x street, near
Pennsylvania avenue, for the purpose of ia.
king a drive, and when on Vermont avenue
stopped to take in Miss Titus, who was to &C.
company the party. When Miss Titus entered
the carriage the driver got down from his box
to shut the dsor, (at the same time holding the
reins, but experienced considerable difficulty
in doing So The horses becoming FESTIVE, Mr..
Frederick Seward attempted to grasp the reins
to assist the driver, but falling to do so, he
jumped from the carriage in order to stop them,
but fell, and somewhat bruised himself Be.
fore Mr.. Frederick Seward could regain his
feet the horses broke away from the driver, he
being unable to regain his seat; and when the
horses suddenly turned into II street, Secre-
tary Seward attempted to get out OF the car
riage, but fell violently to the ground, bruising
his face severely, and badly fracturing his
right arm just below the shoulder blade. The
horses continued running, and when turning
into the yard adjoining Mr.. Stewards residence
one OF them fell, which stopped the carriage,
when the ladies alighted in safety.
The Secretary was Immediately picked up
In an lnSeQSlDle COQQIl0p ana conveyed 70 us
residence, where the fractured limb was
braced, Surgeon General Barnes, DR.. Verdi
and Surgeon Morris attending him.
The driver was not killed, as at first report
ed, but was somewhat injured.
The fracture Of the limb is bad one, but
MIR. Stewards injuries are not considered dan
gerous, we are most happy to state.
The news of the accident to Secretary s.
caused much excitement last night, as it was
at first feared 1t might prove fatas, and the gen.
eral feeling that his loss would ba irreparable
to the country was mingled with the feeling OF
high personal regard entertained for him by all
in this community. s..- ..s..
S-We regret to learn since writing the
above that Secretary Sewarde injuries are
more serious than was at first supposed. On
examination this morning, ths attending physi-
clan discovered a fracture Of the right jaw
The operation Of setting 1t was very painful,
but since it is bandaged, the Secretary feels
more comfortable.
At O'Clock this afternoon he was compare.
lively easy, and there seems every reason to
believe that he will soon be in way of con.
valescence and able shortly to resume the
functions Of the Office he fills with such dis
tingushed ability.
