Disgraceful Conduct of soldiers. For some time past the soldiers attached to the division of Gen. Hood stationed in Chesterfield county, have been perpetrating the most highhanded outrages. The Petersburg Express learns that not only have extensive robberies been committed and depredations upon private property, but the trains running between Richmond and Petersburg have been assailed, and patrons travelling in them injured. On one occasion several window glasses of the cars were broken by snow-balls, and a lady sitting near one of them so seriously injured as to require the services of a physician: On Thursday night last, twelve soldiers, armed to the teeth and purporting to belong to General Road's division, appeared at the Half way House, and demanded admittance into the store of Mr. Charkley, the postmaster. They stated that they had orders from headquarters to search his promises for Equor, and exhibited a forged order to that effect. Seeing that those men were det

The value of the goods thus stolen is estimated at fully $1,000. These "twelve soldiers" then visited Mr. Chalkley's hog pen and slaughtered and carried off five very fine hogs, valued at not less than $1,000 more. They also proceeded on the same night to the residence of Mr Spinner Woodring, a short distance off and robbed smoke-house of a large amount of bacon, besides confiscating other articles and perpetrating other outrages.

The intervention question. The New York Herald of the 27th, gives the following summery of the news by the Etna, which left Liverpool on the 12th instant: We believe that the question of French intervention in our affairs has received a quietus in a dispatch recently issued by M Drouyn de L'Huys to the Minister of the French Governments at Washington, which comprises an answer to Mr. Seward's memorable note of the 6th ult. The spirit of the dispatch forwarded by M. Drouyn de L'Huys involves a withdrawal on the part of France from all further offer of mediation — a course which she has adopted with regret — and assumes henceforth the part of a simple spectator in the contest confining herself to following merely the course of events. At the same time the Cabinet of Louis Napoleon expresses its sorrow that its suggestions, as expressed in its counsels on the 9th of January, were not more fully comprehended by Mr. Seward; but it declares that its opinions remain uncharged, not
