No enemy in Highland.
--The Lynchburg Republican learns that a party of scouts was sent into Highland county last week and returned to Staunton on Saturday, and reported that no force of the enemy was then in that section, they having all retreated towards Cumberland, in Maryland.
At a little place called Harmersburg our scouts came across about two hundred sick and wounded Yankees, whom they made prisoners, together with twenty-three well ones, who had been left to take care of the sick.
It is stated further that Milroy, and the great Pathfinder, have left Pendiston county and taken the back track towards Cumberland, not liking the movements of Jackson in the direction of Martinsburg.
Old "Stonewall." seems to have seriously interfered with the "family arrangements" of Lincoln.
The steamer Bermuda
--The matter of the prize steamer Bermuda was before the Federal Court in Philadelphia last week.
The Bermuda was captured by the Yankee cruisers seven miles from Nassau, and it is alleged on behalf of her owners that she was going into that port.
Her cargo was made up of fire-arms and munitions of war, and some of the kegs of powder were labelled, "A present from Jeff. Davis to President Lincoln." This is the representation of the Northern newspapers.
A flag of Truce.
Communication was held with the enemy on Tuesday, at City Point, below Petersburg.
The trains were under the charge of Gen. Ransom and Captain Ashe.
On return, Mrs. Greenhow, of Washington, came as passenger, having, after a long imprisonment, been allowed to return to her native South.
The barbarous treatment which this lady has received is a lasting stain upon the Northern Government.
Closely confined and guarded by Lincoln's brutal soldiery, she was subjected to indignities and insults almost beyond human endurance to bear.
We have not learned that Mrs. Greenhow brings any important information, and in fact suppose she is bound by oath not to divulge any secrets she may have obtained.
When she left the Yankee lines it is reported that McClellan was sick.
We heartily congratulate this lady on her escape from the tyranny of the Lincoln Government.
Mrs. Greenhow.
--A rumor was prevalent in the city yesterday that Mrs. Rose Greenhow, of Washington, D. C., who has for many months enjoyed the hospitality of Abraham Lincoln in the so called "National Capital," first as a prisoner in her own house, and lastly as an inmate in the old Capitol building, has arrived in Richmond.
If the tyrant has released her, it was because that even he quailed before the might of her power as a representative of the feelings of every true Southern lady.
She never hesitated to let the abolition horde of Washington know her sentiments.
Mrs. Greenhow will be ever welcome in her native South.
