ones ears were filed with the 70 ost; terrible
rumors. Then there. came ON unusual Increase
in the number of wagons on the streets; boxes

streets became filled with men walking as
though for wager, and behind them excited
negroes, toting trunks, bsrd]es and luggage ef
every description. All over the city il was the
same. Wagons, trunks, band-boxes and their
owners-a mass of hurrying fug1tives, filling
the streets. The banks were all open. and de
positors were as busy as bees removing their
specie deposits, and the directors were equally
active in getting ct their bullion. Hund' eds

destroyed, both 0tate and Confederate. Night

Discipline of Troops.

We trust that the reports which have
reached US Of the riotous conduct of eur troops
in eur sister city of Augusta are either untrue

pions of people shall becsne, in a moment of
license, the worst enemies of the liberties and
securities, the peace and property of the citi-
zen, they were appointed to suecor and pro-
tect. etill, We have toe 0uch reason to appre-
hend great evils, mischefs, riot and outlawry.
frsn the toe lax discipline which prevails in
our armies in general. We have seen too much
ourselves, and heard too much from the very
best authority, not to believe and know that
the peaceful cities are now especially in danger
from the relaxation of the reins of discipline
We do not wish to make complaints. We have
borne great deal in silence, though with mis-
giving, and have foreborne to utter the Ian
guage of oomplainb lest we should weaken the
virtues Of eur cause, or impair it's public credit.
But We appeal to all officers IN command, from
the corporal to the captain, and from the Gap
ain to the general, not to forget what is due
to himself, no less than to society, in the pro-
! servation of due discipline among their men,
and the Maintenance Of order in the country.
Troops should be brought as rarely as possible
within the limits of city. 1t is an. old and
proper experience Of great captains which hae
made them usually .encaup them beyond easy
| reach Of the towns; and where the commissa-
ries and quartermasters do their duty as they
! should such an arrangement is always easy.

sion supplies Of any sort, and where society il.

Tho following is copied from the Richmond
Whig, Of 9Th April:
For q month past, the Confederates have
been evacuating the city with all the speed a,'A
means they could command; but somehow the
people refused to believe that the removal
meant evacuation, and all declared that the
measures were only precautionary. Matters
went on in this manner until laet Sua6ay-,he

Sunday m orning, General Lee te]egraphed to
DAVIS, giving an account of the general attack
upon his lines, stating that the lines had been
pisrcsd In many places. and that unless he
could re-esta blish them, Richmond must be
given up that pigLt. His tone was. for tAs
frst time since the war, despondent. He said
his men were not coming up 10 their work.
