vate property which have taken place in Virginia. In its march towards Salem we hear of nothing especially interesting until it emerged from the Alleghenies at Callahan's, the famous old stand at the base of those mountains. This point they had visited several times before, always helping them selves to some of the moveables and supplies thereabouts. In their advance and retreat on this expedition they left Mr. Dixon, the proprietor, little save his land and houses. Proceeding rapidly up Dunlop's creek, they entered the Sweet Springs road at Crow's, that other famous stage stand of other days, where the traveller was so eager to pause, ever sure of a most palatable and refreshing repast, of which venison was a usual dish. The venerable and for famed keeper of the gun died some two years since and left it in the hands of his widow, who still resides there. She has a son or two in the war, and was still offering, in a limited manner, rest and food for the traveller — her means for

--When the train was about leaving the depot in Petersburg for this city yesterday afternoon, a soldier named Murdershaw, a member of the Ninth South Carolina regiment, Kershaw's brigade, attempted to get on, but had not a proper pass, and was prohibited by the guard at one end of the care from doing so. He then went round to the other end, and, unobserved as he thought, jumped on, with the intention of coming over to this city. In a short time after, however, just as the train was opposite Dunlop's farm, a few miles from Petersburg, the lieutenant of the guard, who had noticed his movements, walked through the car to where he was, and told him to consider himself under arrest. Murdershaw immediately sprang from the train and ran off in the direction of the woods, whereupon the lieutenant followed his example, and finding that he would not halt upon being ordered to do so for the third time, he fired the barrel of a revolver at him, which took effect in his right side, inflecting a w

shelling had been pretty much discontinued. It is still reported that Grant is removing troops from his present position, and a citizen who came over yesterday evening says that he is certainly shifting the guns at Battery No. 5; but whether they are being removed or replaced with others of different calibre could not be ascertained. There was a heavy explosion heard yesterday afternoon on the Chesterfield Peninsula, and a heavy smoke was seen shortly after in a straight line east from Dunlop's, on the Petersburg road. It was supposed some of Butler's powder magazines had "gone off" unexpectedly. From the Trans-Mississippi it is stated that General Buckner is to take the place of General Dick Taylor, in East Louisiana. General Taylor left that army, in consequence of a disagreement with Lieutenant-General E. Kirby Smith, after the defeat of Banks. He demanded to be relieved by General Smith, and his demand was complied with. General Smith was in Houston, Texas, on the 1st
