Heavy Robbery OF specie--s2OO,OO0
Stolen,

A few days since two of the officers of the
Richmond banks, whose assets were removed
from that city upon the evacuation in April,
reached Washington in this State, They
were empowered by the authorities to remove
their effects, consisting OF three hundred aud
twenty thousand dollars il specie, to the
capital Of Virginia. Procuring teams and a
guard of twelve men. these gentlemen get
out upon their return home, intending to take
the railroad at Chester, South Carolina.
At the end oi the frs; days journey, they
encamped on the grounds of Mrs Morse,
eighteen miles from Washington and three
from the Savannah river. The officers retired,
and the guafGs lel asleep.
About midnight party OF twenty mount
ed men, who were evidently aware Of the
value of the train, suddenly dashed upon it,
ard tue guard surrendered without firing
gun or making the slightest show of resis-
tance. The freebooters Immediately went to
work bursting open the specie kegs and help
ing themselves to the glittering contents. One
fellow, it is related, had large leathern hav-
ersack, which he filled, but just as 20 was
mounting his horse, the straps gave way and
the precious metal fell chinking TO the ground.
He eagerly scraped up the gold and sand,
leaving number Of pieces, and placing the
coin in bag, rode of. The next morning a
negro teamster found five dollar pieces scat
tered in profusion all about the ground.
Some two hundred thousand dollars were
stolen, leaving about one hundred and twenty
thousand. With this amount the bank OIL
GERS journeyed on, sadder, but wiser men.
Upon Teaching Abbeville, S. c., they offered
reward of twenty thousand dollars for the
recovery Of the property.
The robbers are supposed to be paroled
soldiers, who followed the train from Wssh-
ington. 1t Singular, that in the present
demora!ized state of the country, the gentle
men in charge made no secret OF their !valu-
able possessions; nor did they use any e1-
traordinary measures Of prscantion to pre-.
gel We their property -Consttutionalist.

From tho Cincinnati colamcrclal.
Hnnrh. ON Gen. Hnllcck,

H.W. Halleck is not dead, popular impress
sons, and not few sauguine hopes, to the
contrary Notwithstanding. He has lived to
be used to heap insults on General Sherman,
the man to whom he rejoiced to give the
glory of tho fighting to the bitter end on the
first day at Shiloh, and saving our army froIu
destruction. Halleok wrote despatch at
Richmond, on the 26th, in which he used
such choice and courteous phrases as the fol-
lowing:
"I have telesraphcd back to obey no orders
Of Shsrman's, but to push on as rapidly as
possible"
.Tf suggest that orders be tclegrapbed
through General Thomas that General Will
son obey no orders from General SHERMAN"
The point is, it would not have been diff
cult to have given those orders, if they had
been necessary, without making them the
vehicles Of insult; and the publication of
such dispatch by Stanton, shows his anxiety
to slur the reputation Of Sherman. lie has
undertaken large contract. Halleck, since
his great effort of the 2Jth Of April, has sub
sided into a COLLECTION of rebel pamphlets,
newspapers &c., for the use ol the historians
who are expected in the future ages in which
posterity is thought to be interested. he
had better stick to that, or he will provoke
the publication of what all the Generals who
have commanded the Army of the Potomac;
from Mcclellan to Meade, think Of him.
