How the Contrabands Behave.

--Harrison, body servant of Major Lacy, since his master's capture by the Yankees, has taken service under General Smith, and accompanied him to his present position. Before leaving Richmond, he delivered to a relative of Major Lacy the Major's keys, clothing, money, &c., left in his care. Our ‘"contrabands"’ have more honesty and principle than all the counterfeit white men who attempt to steal them from us.
