Richmond (Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 9
e are no very extensive works near the city for its defence. On the side toward Fair Oaks there are some batteries, but the most powerful fortifications are at Manchester, on the south side of the river, commanding the approach to the city from that direction. He has not seen the new iron-clad vessel being built at Richmond, for this purpose to a considerable extent, but a break occurred at the time of the great freshet, and it had been of little use since. There are no vessels in James river above the city. Large quantities of tobacco are stored in the city, most of last year's crop being still on hand. Some time since experiments were made to only independent observer who has visited that corps for some weeks," that the force is "in a deplorable condition;" that there are "twice as many civilians on James river as there are soldiers," and that no hope seems to be entertained, either by officers or men, of reaching Richmond in that direction before spring even if reinfo

d the resources at his call to put down this rebellion without further trifling, and the country expects this to be done. Affairs at Warrenton. A correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer writing from Gen. Pope's army, July 19, says: Warrenton is really a beautiful town. It has been incorporated for several years. Mr. Charles Bragg is the present Mayor, and is spoken of in the highest terms as a gentleman and an efficient public officer. Warrenton is the shire town of Fauquier county, and contains about two thousand inhabitants. The inhabitants are largely in favor of Secession, and although surrounded at the present by a large force of Union troops, yet I found hosts to-night who loudly proclaim their Secession sympathies, and hope that our forces may soon be driven back from here. The late Col. Ashby was an immense favorite in this place. Some of his admirers still wear mourning for him. One young lady passed me to-night who seemed to be particularly intere

our Southern blockade, involving a positive loss to the rebellion of two hundred millions a year of substantial wealth in the great products of Southern slave labor. During the first nine or ten months of their experimental Southern Confederacy, the rebels went on swimmingly; for they had the abundant granaries of our border slave States and of Texas still at their command. But all these resources, excepting Virginia, are now cut off, and, form the numerous Southern families in Northern Mississippi and Alabama found in a starving condition by the advancing army of General Halleck, we may form some opinion of the general exhaustion of our revolted States, and of the desperate necessities of Davis to bring all his available military forces forward into Virginia for a decisive settlement at Richmond or Washington. It is reported, too, that his conscription act has given him an army of seven hundred thousand men, embracing every white man liable to militia duty within his military

mmerce winding through the defiles of the Rocky Mountains and emptying itself into St. Louis, then the great entropy of the West. Thither will come the teas and silks of China, the spices of the East, the lighter products of India, the gold of California, and of the new districts which the road itself will lay open to the world, and a thousand new articles of commerce of which we do not now think. Over this track, too, will pass the new in migration which is to settle the valleys of the Rocky e idea that every advance in gold notes a corresponding depreciation in currency becomes very manifest. The New York Herald, of the 25th, says: The high premium on gold in this city has stimulated shipments of the precious metal from California. The Aspinwall steamer that arrived yesterday brought $837,000. and by telegraph from San Francisco we learn that the steamer which left that city on the 11th inst., has on board $950,000, and the steamer of the 21st has $1,114,000--making a t

Batler, Com. Dept. of the Gulf. To this Gen. Butler replied as follows: Headquarters Departm't of the Gulf, New Orleans, La., July 7, 1862. Sir: Your note received Saturday removes all difficulty of personal intercourse. The withdrawal of the offensive expressions is sufficient and accepted. Commander Hewett, of H. B. M. sloop-of- war Rinaldo, now in this harbor, informs me that he is instructed by Lord Lyons to recognize you as Acting Consul of her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, and that Commander Hewett does recognize you in that official capacity. This seems sufficient for the re-establishment of official relations. To your inquiry whether all neutrals (British subjects) wishing to go to New York or abroad, furnished with proper passports from their Government, will be required to take the oath prescribed for aliens in General Orders Nos. 41 and 42, it is answered that a pass differs from a passport, as I had the honor to explain in my letter to the Consuls

was formerly a clerk in Norfolk. He stated that the Confederate army would be in Philadelphia, at the furthest, by Christmas. Washington would fall to them very shortly, and Baltimore was to be freed immediately after the occupation of Washington. He was fighting for Southern rights, but what these Southern rights consisted of, he was not quite prepared to say; but one thing he did know, we were stealing all their negroes, and this was unpardonable. The wharves and surroundings at City Point are all destroyed. This was done some three weeks ago by our gunboats, in retaliation for the act of a Georgia regiment firing into a flag of truce boat landing here. Many of the dwellings on the hill show the effect of shot and shell. The inhabitants (some 400 in number) fled to Petersburg when the firing commenced. A railroad track yet remains, running along the shore in front of the village.--The remnants of a car, which has been burned, is on the end of the track. The dwellings ar

arn that the steamer which left that city on the 11th inst., has on board $950,000, and the steamer of the 21st has $1,114,000--making a total monthly shipment of nearly three millions of dollars consigned to this city. The next month may be expected to produce a still greater increase; so that the precious metal will soon find its level, the market being glutted, and the supply being in excess of the wants of commerce. The New York Herald Miscellaneous. Gen. Lewis Partridge, of Norwich, Vt., was arrested a few days since by United States Marshal Baldwin, on the charge of treason, and taken to Windsor, where the United States Circuit Court sits next week. Hon. John J. Crittenden is in New York. Mrs. Phillips and Judge Andrews, of New Orleans, who were sent to Ship Island by Gen. Butler, have been released. At Harardsville, Ct., on the 22d instant, a powder mill exploded, killing 8 men and Miss Ceha Smith, who was struck by a flying timber. The New Orleans

hundred or five hundred thousand men may be mustered in a month. Why not call them out? The people of our loyal States will respond to this demand with cheerfulness and alacrity. Knowing that they have the men and the means required for the work, they are ready to bring them all to bear en masse to put down this rebellion. The powers of the President, in this and every other respect, for the vigorous prosecution of this war, are almost as ample as the absolute power of the Emperor of Russia. Mr. Lincoln has, like Cincinnatus, been invested with what we may call a temporary dictatorship to save the country. We are gratified, too, with certain manifestations of a wise and energetic exercise of this comprehensive authority. The country looks to President Lincoln for the most vigorous war measures against the great rebel army of Virginia; and we look to him not only to employ all the needful men and means at his command, but we expect him to enforce unity, order, harmony and act
