RICHMOND. July H. 1865.
The city was to-day somewhat excited ID
consequence of the suppression OF The Whis In lts
leader Of yesterday insoent and sarcastic article
commenting on the refusal Of President johnson TO re-
peal his $50 900 exemption clause the law and act OF
Congress as approved by the President ia
as "mean brutal and cowardly" For this offensive
expression Gen Terry orders the Provost Marshal Col
Ordway 10 seize the Office, presses etc., ara prevent
heneeforth the publication Of the paper. In no other
paper Of Virginia would such article have created
such universal surprise and regret as in The Richmond
VAi1 known through the war as bitter opponent TO
the policy Of the Confederate Government and at any
time no very espouser Of the cause The return oil
Robert Ridgway thought to be al indication OF the
future Union and National policy of The Wig Mr. L.
was the last TO lower the American flag over his office
after the passage Of the Secession ordinance and only
did so then when waited upon by committee of citi'
sens and compelled TO bow before the mandate OF trea-
SON. but protesting he would never again write for
his paper long the rag of Rebellion fu1ered on
that staff" Mr. Ridgway withdrew from his connee-
tion with the press and bitterly prosecuted by the
Rebel authorities BY hook and crook, eyadng the con
script laws and guard, he returned TO his charge
about the middle of June last, very much
altering and improving the tone of the sheet.
The article in question is xpioable have searched
for an empoye Of the paper in vain. All day long
crowd has been gathered the corner, discussing the
merits of the case The Office is closed and locked,
while guard sits at the To the editorial and
composing rooms, refusing admttance to all. May
other paperstake heed and which hold their edics OF
treachery and treason.
In keeping with this we are visited with the mis-
fortune of characterization among number of our reg
Observation-Disclosures at not being mustered out OF
paid of-six and ten months pay due, and in many
instances bounty also-bad whisky as poisonous as
the bounteoas bestowers, who ply it gratuousy The
men are neary all worked up to STATE
of mutiny. The Goth and 10th New-York Volun
teers have the past week been'n state Of fer
ment but it was reserved for the OIL
Pennsylvania Cavalry to evince their spirit this morn
ing with four companies refusing 10 drill. Into The
5th PenDsy wanna Cavalry the Sd Regiment same state
and service were merged about June TO- The men ex
pecting TO be mustered out were very much ncensed
ct this action and have from time TO time discussed
their grievances, not at all commendatory to the
officers. This morning Col West ordered drill, when
Companies K L and VI refused to muster, alleging that
their duties sufficient without additions of drill
The companies were from the old Sd. and tho Coone
ordered TWO companies Oh Dis W hrless
them; few OF Company refused. The regiment
was ordered out and the mutineers marched off 70
Castle Thunder. and there confined. The commits
stoned officers all acted with their companies.
Last Sabbath was more like New England Sunday
than any j have Witnessed here since the war
The order oGen Terry closing all shops but dispenser
Of drugs had wholesome effect not an intoxicated per
son being seen on the streets, not q warehouse o
trinket shop open Progressing in the good work, We
shall have Richmond civilized and Chrstianized in due
time.
The colored people are moving in an enterprise t
establish paper to be called The Fresdmans Adrooat'
W. Lewis, colored man, black as ebony is named a
she manager and The Republic is seeking for contrac
to publish it.
Gov. Pierpont has given permission to the Trustee
Of the Military Institute TO rebuild that edce. and No
doubt ere long at Lexgnton, shall have the sons
F. VS. re imbibng the doctrines that fitted so NAM
TO play the traitors part. Am D.
