Some of its officers, however, declared that it was Mobile; others thought Galveston, and still others James river.

Double sentries were put on duty, and some of the heaviest of the war vessels were moored in front of the city. The purpose was to destroy it if the movement should be made. It was this fear that prompted the order of the Provost Marshal, declaring that three persons found together on the streets were equivalent to a riot; and several citizens were arrested and fined for violating it. On the 13th instant the fear of a riot was so great that signal flags from St. Patrick's Cathedral were used nearly all day. The same day a lady was arrested for displaying a Confederate ban

How it resulted is not exactly known, but cars returned to New Orleans laden with wounded Yankee soldiers. Butler sent reinforcements, and a portion of them had come back, making their way through swamps, and getting to their quarters in a very forlorn condition. Communication with the city, it was supposed, would be entirely cut off. Sailing vessels, accustomed to run to Madisonville, on the opposite side of the lake, are all retained there; and on the 14th inst, several persons were arrested for running this blockade and imprisoned.

Soon the main body of cavalry came in, numbering about 1,400, after them came the infantry in wagons, about 600 strong, with four pieces of artillery--one a Parrot rifle gun.

Pankey, deceased, which his wife had in a private room, and performed a thousand other acts of vandalism not easily enumerated. They arrested several citizens, but not getting hold of any they particularly wanted, turned them loose on their departure. They mixed with the negroes, and endeavored, with promises of good pay and freedom, to entice them off. They got away with nine, five of which were returned from McMinnville and Murfreesboro'. On Sunday evening, the 15th, they left, taking with them sixteen recruits for their army. These were men of a particular character, which does not contain philanthropy or patriotism enough to entitle them to the name of "citizen" in any country. This section is relieved of a class which are a nuisance in any community.

Conversation with prisoners. A letter from "Before Richmond," in the Columbia (S. C.) Guardian, gives an interesting account of the writer's conversation with some Yankee prisoners. It says: We conversed with a wounded New York Zouave, who was shot through the leg — tibia shattered — and was a prisoner in our hands. He expressed himself perfectly satisfied with the results of the day to him, for his wound would release him from the remaining portion (ten months) of his term of service. He told us that he had received more personal kindness at the hands of the re
