WENoNA.

A correspondent from tho flourish
ing village Of Wenona-late Lake
City-sends us the following under
date of March 16. We shall be hap
TO hear often from .Wonona:
1t may interest you to know that
the name of this village, Of late call
ed Lake City, is now changed to
Wenona. 1t is the site of the large
mill Just erected by Messrs. Sage & Nc
Graw, and bids fair to become another
instance OF that wonderful growth
which has distinguished the towns in
this valley.
One year ago there was but one
house, few trees cut, and not single
improvement commenced. Now we
have extensive and well supported en-
terprises in progress, and. there Is
every reason to. believe in one or two
years this will be one of the most
thriving towns in the valley. The
mill Of Messrs. Sage & McGraw will
be ready 10 commence saving as soon
as the river is open. The planisg
mill and sash factory Of ID. G. Arnold
& Co. is now running, and has enter
cd at once into prosperous business.
The Village has been plated, and
nearly one hundred and fifty building
lots have been sold A Post Office
has been established here, and the u.
s. Telegraph Company arc building a
line from East Saginaw to this place,
where they will have an Office in the
store of Messrs. Sage & McGraw.--
Four stores have been erected, three
of which arc open and doing a good
business; and largo number of
dwelling houses have been built.
The Presbyterian society here, I'M
der tho charge of ID. ID. Campbell,
propose TO build this spring hand
some church edificc and one or two
hotel buildings will bo commenced
within month or two" Is.

FROM RICHMOND.

New York, March 20.
The extracts from the Richmond
papers Of Friday contain no news.
Tho D,spateh says two negroes were
convicted recently of burglary, and
sentenced to be hung, have been par
donsd by the Governor, upon condi-
ton of volunteering in tho military
service of the Confedoracy. As soon
as released from prison they repaired
TO the colored camp for instruction,
and were regularly mustered in.
The enlistment Of negroes in Rich
mond goes bravely on.
The Confederate Senate has concur
red in the resolution Of the House
relative to I'm address to the country.
The Confederate Congressadjourned
on Thursday, at II o'clock. Hl
IL tho State Senate the following
resolution was offered, but no action
taken, for want Of quorum:
Resoircd, Banks Of this common
wealth are hereby prohibited from
diminishing the specie in their pos
session, except by loans TO the State
or Confederate government, until
otherwise ordered, and the Governor
is requirod to render TO said banks all
the aid he can TO secure the safety of
thor funds.

FROM NEW YORK.

NEw YonK, March 20.
Tho Herald editorially thinks the
rebels will evacuato Richmond without
another battle. 1t says it is the only
alternative left TO save Lees army
1t thinks Lee will form junction
with 10 Johnston at Danville.
A Liverpool letter mentions the
death of Sayers, the prize fighter. :
Bellies life contradicts the report.
The H@alTs New Orleans cores
pendent says
A woman who left Mobile on the
9th, says tho troops are being removed,
and there is every indication that the
city will be evacuated. 1t is probable
that most of the garrison is outside
the city limits. A rebel officer who
recently deserted says tho city will be
defended but thinks it can be taken,
The Times correspondent, writing
from White House, says Sheridan has
destroyed moro property than was
ever before destroyed in one expedi-
ton. In one day he captured two
million dollars worth. The Kanawha
and James River Canal could not be
repaired in two years. The banks
were cut and levels drained frequently
at points where the stream rushed
rapidly. The bed Of tho canal itself
Mt one point near Scottville, had,
before our troops left, been washed
out to the depth Of 10 feet, and the
powerful mountain feeder was making
il deeper every hour. From Dajido,
vile TO Goochland every lock and
every level were destroyed 80 thorough
ly that every portion will have to be
rebuilt. Sheridan's command has OBJ
tanned supplies for horses aud men in
thirteen counties traversed. The sup
plies consumed and wasted, and issued
to the starving poor, would have
sufiiced to feed Lees army for months.
The Richmond papers contain an
appeal from the officials recently au'
thorized to raise negro regiments
They ask the people of Virginia, who
have given sons, brothers, money and
property to tho support of tho war,
now to give their servants, who will
no doubt be willing to aid in bringing
the war TO close. The Dispatch COM
mends their efforts, and thinks negroes
make excellent soldiers.
The rebel House, on tho 18th, pass
cd the Senate bill, authorizing the
Secretary of the Treasury to purchase
specie from any of the, Confederate
rouse also passed tho bill suspending
| the hdJeds cOrpus.
