The latter have been vanquished, and the trophies of victory now adorn the Provost's office in the shape of numerous little hoops ornamented with those peaceful colors — white and red. Surely, the "rebellion" will be crushed. I understand that the Seaboard Road is to be turn up as far as Suffolk, the iron to be used for some other purpose. The depredations upon the property of our citizens is going on as usual, receiving the countenance and support of Yankee officials. Negroes and Unionists — I name the blacks first as being the best of the two--are unrestricted in cutting wood, and hordes of these lazy and dishonest creatures are engaged in an indiscriminate onslaught upon the forests surrounding the city.

The first of this brace of worthies is a lawyer of city, who rendered himself infamously by voting for Lincoln; and then, to escape the indignation of the people, (which, by the way, threatened something more than words) published a card, declaring his love for his native South and his determination to dedicate to her service two nephews, then under his charge. He is now a boasting, brazen faced traitor, and has received a portion of the reward of his treason in the appointment of one of these very nephews to a place in the Federal navy.

Some three or four regiments are quartered in this section, and, from the appearance of the material it will be well to keep them out of the way of danger. Norfolk has been the scene of one or two riots lately — all, however, among the Yankees. One of these took place at the theatre the other night, in which Gen. Vicle was rather roughly handled--one blow bring given him — and his better half tightly squeezed. Many arrests were made, and the offenders will doubtless be severely punished. Desertions are numerous and request, and there are 150 in Fort Norfolk at this time who have been caught. Some boldly declare that there would be but few here could they reach home by land.
