in the vicinity of Hatcher's run. That
his lines have been well thinned in our
immediate front comes to us from more
than one reliable source, and we may
look for the issue to be taken. The rain
on Thursday and yesterday probably pre-
vented the earlier opening Of hostilities,
uhich, unless signs deceiee us, aredestined TO
commence ere the set Of many suns. We be-
lieve our generals are fully prepared for
this threatened movement on the part OF
the enemy, and will be sufficiently able
to defeat its object. A bold effort will
no doubt be made to break through our
lines and gain the Boydton plank road,
whence ifthey are successful in estab-
fishing themselves, future operations
will be more easily conducted against
the South Side railroad. We are conf
dent, if such all attempt be made, that
it will fail The enemy kept up per
sistent shelling on onr center and left
nearly all day yesterday, probably to
cover the movements of troops toward
Hatcher's run The next day OF two
will more fully develop the enemys plan,
if not show the results of his operations.

4 rival of the Nsnkee Generals Crook

From the Richmond Enquirer, Feb 2II
The Yankee Generals Crook and Kelley,
and the adiutaut-general OF the former,
Thayer Melvin arrived IN Richmond yes
terday morning at two o'clock by the
Central cars Aspreyiously stated, these
officers were captured i'll Cumberland,
Maryland, OH Tuesday last, by Lieutan-
ant McNeill and thirty men. From one
of the party engaged in this dashlng and
brilliant enterprise We learn the follow
lug incidents of the capture: The party
crossed the Potomac in front ot the town
at late hour on the night OF the event.

seen induced him to divulge the counter
sign Tie main body Of the detach-
meut was then posted in convenient
position, aud the Lieutenant command
ing. with Several of the men, boldly rode
into the town, which was garrisoned by
over -four hundred Federal troops. Tue
headquarters of General Crook were at
one hotel and those of General Kelley at
another, and their locations being duly
made known by the captured sentinel,
the daring partlsanS made their way to
those of the former, arriving just IN fTont
of which the Lieutenant halted and in
drired of the sentinel if the general was
in. Receiving al affirmative reply, he
said he had important dispatches for him,
and dismounting followed by his men,
advanced TO the sentiael, gave the coun-
tersign and passed in. Upon entering
the hotel the squad was received by an
old negro woman who, it appears, was
the night clerk" Of the establishment;
aud upon making known their desire TO
be conducted TO the room 0r General
Crook, the old domestic looked at them
with kind of humorous suspicion, and

The Richmond Examiner Of the 9th, IN
an editorial, speaking of the message that
jeff Davis recently addressed to the rebel
Congress, in which he said, IF the cam
paign against Richmond had resulted III
success instead of failure, and If we had
been compelled 10 evacuate Richmond
as well as Atlanta, the COnlederacy
would have remained a. defiant as ever, "
saws: Let not this fatal error he har-
bored until it takes effect upon the mag
ination The evacuation of Richmond
would be the loss of all respect aud au-
thority toward the Confederate govern
ment-the disintegration of the army
and the abandonment of the scheme OF
an independent Southern Contederacy
The withdrawal of the army from Rich
mond would so narrow the area Of the
Conscripti1n as greatly 10 reduce our
military strength. As our army would
dwindle in numbers it would move more
and more rapidly westward, and before
reaching the Mississippi it would have
degenerated into a mere body guard OF Il
few officials From the hour of giving
up the seat of government our cause
would sink into mere rebellion IN the
estimation of foreign powers, who would
cease to accord 10 MS the rights 'f bellig-
erents while the enemy would be Tree TO
treat our officers and soldiers as traitors
and ciminals so that every rebel would

Mexican News.

SAN Francisco, March The DEM
ocrat of this city, which affects to be
we'll informed, concerning the plans and
movements of DR.. Gwyn, denies emphati-
cally OH the authority of his agents that
the Emperor Napoleon has withdrawn
from the Sonora colonization scheme, as
was intimated by eastern dispatches. 1t
says: From sources OfinfOrmf tion which
we deem reliable, We have abundant as
surance that there has been no change in
the plans of the Emperor recently, while
the cause of the Mexican Empire is ad-
vancing as rapidly as could be reasonably
expected. When the steamer John L..
Stephens left Mazatlan, there were sever
al thousand French troops there.
Advices had been received that Mar
shal Bazaine. with the main portion of
his army, was on his way to Mazatlan,
and might be expected there in few
days, accompanied by Dr Gwyn. II is
barely possible that Dr. Gwyn did not
sail for Europe at later date than the
news we have received from the City OF
Mexico direct, but if such is the fact, his
visit has no reference to change of
places, as it is not in contemplation to
take possession of Aricho, the future cap
itol of the Northern States, before the
ls1 of May. 1t is not the intention to
make the States, over which DR.. Gwyn
will have control, a portion OF the
French Empire or a French colony. Par
amount authority is TO reside in the En-
peror ef Mexico, while the territory is
held in trust or the payment Of the
French debt, and TO be defended by
French arms.

silly looked at them from his bed
"Yes; what do you ewantf% was the
reply; ,s,a,r.lass.,,. ,,.D.. o..,.-.,
Rosser;" and, drawing pistol and pre-
senting it, added: Il have some very
important business with you, General
Crook, and will give you precisely two
minutes to get mp and put on yonr
clothes"
The bewildered General did not know
how to reply, and did not dare TO resist.
He saw at glance that it would be as
useless as dangerous to attempt escape
by raising an alarm, and he did not stop
to solve the mystery of so unexpected a
call He Obeved at once, ,andJa gentle
suggestion of the propriety Of keeping
quiet being whispered in his ear, he
passed ont with his escort as mute as a
mummy On their egress the party per
suaded the sentinel on duty TO follow
them by inducements similar TO those
submitted to the General, and. making
their prisoners mount behind them, rode
back to the main body. In the mean-
time second detachment rode up 10 the
quarters OF General Kelley, where a sinii-
lar scene occurred, and that officer was,
in due time, under guard. But the party
was not content. Ascertaining the quar-
ters of the Adjutant General they gave
him passing call, found linn in bed with
his wife, who happened, oh, pity
him, ye Benedicts to be blush

gentle as possible under the cir
cumstauces, succeeded III INITIATING

Gaping the climax OF The nights sport,
the rendezvous was Pegained, and with
their prisoners riding behind them, the
command recrossed the river, and sped
away through Hampshire By some means
the affair was discovered soon after they
left, and whole regiment pursued them

ing presented to Gen Early at his head
quarters in the valley, the prisoners were
received with the hOmely but, no doubt,
acceptable greeting: Take seats, gen
tlemen, / presume you are tired after

brilliant victories and stunning defeats,
with an intensitication of that fine, tooth
comb popularity ofhis enunciation: Il
expect some enterprising Yankee will be
stealing off with me i'll the same way one
of these days" Whether the prisoners
relished the joke or not our informant
failed to depose They were, doubtless,
in no humor for jokes. They are now in

they will be kept until our gallant men

4 great deal of caIseles5 disquiet has

but which have been greatly mlsundef'

statement on authority and by request,
in order to relieve the minds of our peo-

With the opening of the campaign, and
in the Immediate presence OF the two
