Arrival of Rebel PrisOners-NTore
About the Peace Interview.

NEW YORK, April 9.-The steamship Ma
tanzas arrived this morning from City
Point, with 900 rebel prisoners, part of
those captured at Bentonville, Goldsboro
and Columbia. Among the prisoners is
Col. Rhett, of Fort Sumter notoriety.
The Times Petersburg correspondent
cOntradicts the statement that the railroad
to Richmond was nearly repaired; not a
workman has been put upon it. The South
Side railroad is to have its gauge changed
so as to take upon it our rolling stock.
Petersburg was in command of Gen.
Warren until the 9th, when Gen. Hartsuff
was assigned to the command as military
Governor.
The Heralds Richmond correspondence
says: Mr. Lincoln was, on the 4th, inform
ed by Gems. Weitzel and Shepley that prom
inent rebels desired an interview with him.
He replied that he was willing to grant the
interview, but in the presence of friend.
After the reception of the officers of the
army and navy it was announced to the
President that Judge Campbell, Assistant
rebel Secretary of War, and Mr.. Myerfs
member of the late rebel Congress were
awaiting an audience with the President in
another room. The President accompanied
by Gen. Weitzel, Immediately retired to the
room and held conference which lasted but
a short time, and was adjourned to the flag
ship Malvern. The result of these confer
ences cannot be made known, but auspici-
Gus results are known to be about to occur
from them.

New YORK, April S.-The Herald's Mo-
bile correspondence of the 31st saws. The
steamer Mark r. Cheek, with 1S6 bales of
cotton was burned at the mouth of Buffalo
bayou; 1t is supposed by the rebels.
Several expeditions have lately gone out
OF Natchez, one of which, under General
Fassan, met with important success in the
vicinity of Trinity, La, where rebel
camp was surprised and thirty prisoners
captured and forty horses taken in camp.
Inc Herald correspondent from front of
Mobile 25th, says the whole OF Gen. Granp-
er's- corps arrived at Pauly's Mills on the
23d. On the evening of the 24th the 10th
corps received orders to march the next
morning, which was received by three
cheers by the troops. The 18th corps to-
gether with Gen. Candy and staff were to
60 with them.
This correspondent states an incident of
military etiquet seldom occurring in this
war. At least regiment OF cavalry were
sent out on reconnaissance and soon met
nearly 20 rebel cavalry situated on knoll,
short distance in advance. The officers
IN command of our troops gave orders not
to fire If it could possibly be avoided, and
they continued advancing towards the reb-
els, who probably had received the same
orders. When within 100 yards they stood
looking at each other In amazement, and in
few seconds then the commanding officer
OF the rebels rode boldly forward and sa-
luted our men. Determined not to be OUT
done, several of our officers rode forward
and returned the salute. Both commands
then rode off.

Opera HousE-ALADIN.-There was a
very full house on Saturday at the benefit
of Mr.. r. H. Geary. 1t was in truth an
evening of rare and exquisite enjoyment
for all the lovers of the humorous and the
comic. The three pieces set down in the
bills were played-Mr. Lewis appearing
and delighting everybody in all three. Mr..
Evans's reading Of the poem, the Sleeping
Sentinel-was warmly applauded. Mrs.
Ellsler, Miss Blanche Bradshaw and Miss
Hewitt played their respective parts with
excellent taste and skill. The singing of
Misses Bradshaw and Howilt was especially
admirable.
The great play of Aladdin, which has

| WASHINGTON, April 8.-The Richmont
] Wing OF Thursday evening says: The
transition frt m enormous prices and a de.
preciated eurr ncy to reasonable rates and
real money has come down SO suddenly
! upon the citizens that 1t will be some time
before they cal. properly realize the change
Butter, which was scarce at 1926 pound, is
now plentiful at 80 and 60c. Eggs, that were
had at $25 per dozen, are now 30c; Other
commodities at an equal rate.
Monday morning, pending the excitement
and confusion growing out Of the eVacua-
tion by the Confederates, the $50 convicts
in the State penitentiary managed to effect
their escape, but on Thursday over 100 were
recaptured and returned to prison.
| Military Governor Shepley has author
| lied detail OF colored men to clear away

Suffers stores are springing up all over
the business part of the city left by the fire,
and old times are being revived by sight
of the substantials and luxuries enjoyed
before the war. +llF
We understand from Gen. Ripley that no
difficulty now exists in regard to mail COM
munication by citizens with their friends
in the Northern States and all sections
within the main lines, provided the letter
be stamped with the legitimate postage. A
mail is made up daily, going by steamer
via City Point, Fortress Monroe and Anna

Four of the detective officers of the Con-

mained behind when the Government
changed its base, have been arrested, to-
gether with Wiley, the turnkey Of Castle
Thunder; Frederick Shaffer, the Confeder-
ate bread commissary of the Union prison.
ers, and all committed to the Libby prison.
The functions of the Mayor and police
have been suspended for the present, and
military law governs the city. In time we
may look for the restoration of our muni-
cipal government, and the resumption of
legislation in all its departments.
The Wing gives additional particulars Of
the evacuation, which had been going on
for month but the people were blinded
and refused to believe removal meant evac-
uation, as all declared the measures were
only precautionary. ........'
Sunday morning the gold and silver coin
belonging to the Louisiana banks, and re-
Gently appropriated by the confederate
Congress, was run down to the Danville
train, also the specie of the Richmond
banks, then the programme for the depart
ure of the officials was arranged. A num-
Der of trains were to leave during the even
ing, still there was not room for all who
thought it desirable to go away. Davis
was to depart at 7 p. NJ. Breckinridge
elected to 60 off on horseback with the last
of the army Monday morning. Governor
Smith ran off during the night.

President Lincoln to Offer an Am.
... nesty to Rebels.

New YORK, April S.-The Tribune's spe-
cial says the rumor that the President will
offer general amnesty to the rebel rank
and file gains credence in influential quar-
ters. 1t is known that Secretary Seward
was to meet the President at Richmond on
the day of his accident by a summons from
the latter. Grant also telegraphed the Sec
retary of War, requesting that no one be
permitted to visit Richmond for the pres
ent; while rumor asserts that commission
ers, official or self-constituted, from Ala
bama, Georgia and North Carolina, are in
that city in conference with the President.
