dock, heggared description. Hundreds of
Government wagons were loaded with bacon,
-four and whisky. and driven off in hot haste
to join the retreating army. Negroes with
their peculiar heave OIL" sweated and
worked like beavers but the immense piles
of stores did not seem to diminish in the
least. Thronged about the depot were hun
dreds of men. women aud children, black
and white, provided with capacious bags,
baskets, tubs. buckets, tin pans aud aprons,
cursing, pushing and crowding. awaiting the
throwing open of the doors, and the order
for each to help himself. When the Gov
eminent wagons had got off all the stores
possible, it was found that several hundred
barrels Of whisky remained in the upper
story.
WHISKY CATARACT.
One after another, in hasty procession,
the barrels were rolled to the hatchwny the
heads knocked out, and a miniature whisky
Niagara poured continuously down. pouring
into the dock in Il current almost strong
enough to have swept a man off his feet
Between 200 and 800 barrels were thus
poured out-a big drink to the inny inhabi-

About sunrise the doors were opened to
the populace, and rush, that almost seem
ed to carry the building off its foundations.

pounds of splendid bacon, Hour. &C., went
into the capacious nav of the public.
And here we may remark that while the
Confederate Government was making such
poor mouth over the reported failure of
supplies-while the people were being star
we'd that the army might be fed, this i'm
mense storehouse was bursting with fnllness
and plenty, to come finally to utter wreck
and waste.
PAPER TORNADO.
A whrlwind sweeping through dead leaves
in Autumn scattered them no more wildly
than the official documents, pamphlets, &c.,
were scattered ON Monday morning. Con
federate bonds, Confederate notes, bank
checks, bills, hecked and whitened the
streets in every direction--all SO worthless
that the boys would not pick them up.
SHELL EXPLOSION.
While the city was burning, about 9
o'clock on Monday morning, terrific she'll
explosions, rapid and continuous, added to
the terror Of the scene, and led to the i'm
preston that the city was being shelled by
the retreating Confederate army from the
Southside; bul the explosions were soon
asceltained to proceed from the Government
Arsenal aud Laboratory, then in flames.
