it was her chief ambition in life to spend in doing good. The household was afterwards increased by the arrival of Mrs. Julia Butler (also called in the diary, Mrs. Green Butler) the widow of Mr. Greenlee Butler, who had died not long before in thebut were a good deal delayed on the way by having to wait for a train of forty government wagons to pass. We found Mrs. Julia Butler at Mrs. Sims's, straight from Washington, with letters for us, and plenty of news. I feel anxious to get back now,going to be such a center of interest. If the Yanks take Augusta, it will become the headquarters of the department. Mrs. Butler says a train of 300 wagons runs between there and Abbeville, and they are surveying a railroad route. Several regimeny they have been fooled. Feb. 17, Friday We had expected to bring Miss Pyncheon out to Pine Bluff with us, but Mrs. Butler had the only vacant seat in the carriage.

Miscellaneous. The wife of Rev. Mr. Baldwin, of Nashville of "Armageddon" fame, advised him to rot-in prison rather than take the cath of allegiance, at Andy Johnson's command and said that if he were to take the oath, she would never live with him again. Captain D. H. Liewellyn, Quarter master to Col. Morgan's regiment, was killed by bushwhackers, at or near Cascade Creek, in Roane county, Tenn., a day or two since. He was with a party of four men some distance in the rear of the squadron when, there is reason to believe, he was mistaken by the ambushed assassins for Col. Morgan. Three cars of wounded soldiers, of the passenger train on the Wilmington and Manchester railroad, were thrown down an embankment fifteen feet high, on Thursday evening. A captain had one of his arms broken in two places, and many were severely bruised. Mrs. Julia Butler, of Edgefield, S. C., died on the 9th inst. of grief, having heard the day before of the death of her son in battle.

The Sub-Treasury of this city received to-day a special deposit of $238,000, which is not likely to be claimed in a hurry. It seems that when New Orleans fell it was discovered that the rebel Government had a sum of nearly a quarter of a million to its credit in the banks of that city. This sum Gen. Butler claimed on behalf of the United States, and by a little gentle pressure succeeded in persuading the banks to draw for it on their correspondent banks in this city. The drafts were paid this morning. The deposit was made, we believe, in the name of the "so called Confederate Governme
