One enterprising gentleman, Bslti-
morean, has gone into the business Of
gathering up the old paper in the streets
of Richmond. For this purpose he has en-
ployed number of men TO act as gather
era, who are even now working hard, with
hooks and carts. Owing to the destruc-
ton Of 3 portion of the city by fire, many
of the streets are literally covered with
old papers and legal documents Of various
kinds. Many q lawyers musty records
are scattered broadcast to the winds.
FEELING AGAINST JEFF. DAVIS.
The feeling here against JEFF Davis is

Iss Of sufficient value TO secure something
D eat, the people had but little; now they
ave almost nothing at all, and are in re- G
lily thrown upon the kindness ofktrang. :,
