They had the only road he could get-off by, and he formed his troops to cut his way through. This trouble was spared him by the Confederates making the first charge and driving him two miles. Just as they were about to make another charge, he sent in a white flag, surrendering unconditionally. He and his staff took off their arms and handed them over to Colonel Crew, and Stoneman, sitting down on a log near by, took a good cry. Six hundred of his men surrendered with him, but the rest broke into the woods, where they were followed and pretty thoroughly killed or captured by our men. We took six hundred prisoners, one thousand horses and two pieces of cannon. These raiders had spread desolation along the track they had marched. They had entered private houses and stripped ladies' fingers and breasts of rings and pins; broke open drawers and trunks,

Grant (search for this): article 1
The War News. The news yesterday was very meagre. All was quiet at Petersburg; but it is said that the movements of the enemy's wagon trains, and the unusual dust hovering over his camps, showed that some movement of troops was taking place. It is probable that Grant is moving more men to Washington. It is further stated that he is removing some of his heavy guns from in front of Petersburg, but this is hardly probable. Directly those guns leave the front of Petersburg, Ulysses cases to be a Lieutenant-General. From Mobile there is nothing further. It may be proper to state that the enemy's fleet menacing that city is very much in the same position, as far as chances of success through its own efforts are concerned, as a fleet menacing Richmond from below Drewry's Bluff would be. On this side of the river all is quiet? From General Early, commanding the department of Pennsylvania and Maryland, there is no intelligence which could, with prudence, be made public

rate officers — Scene at the exchange. It will be recollected that a few weeks since our Government sent fifty-six Yankee officers, including Generals Wessel, Seymour, Shaler, Hickman and Scanmon, to Charleston, to be placed in prison there. They were placed in an elegant mansion in the western portion of the city, near the Asally under fire at Morris Island, it was rumored that we had determined to place these Yankees on the ramparts at Fort Sumter. This rumor came to the ears of General Seymour, one of the prisoners, who intimated to Captain H. H. Raymond, Adjutant and Inspector-General, that probably an explanation would lead to less dreadful results. Captain Raymond informed Seymour and his companions that if they desired to make a proposition to General Foster for an exchange, he thought no objection would be made on our part to such a course. The result was that General Foster requested one of our staff officers to meet one of his, in order to effect a negotiation, which
