Transportation of treasure. We learn that J. H. Craigmiles, Esq., of Cleveland, Tennessee, who left this city last Thursday with $400,000 in cash, furnished him by that indefatigable agent of the Commissary Department, Major Frank G. Griffin, has arrived safely at his destination with his treasure. With the aid of two good Southern men, secured at Bristol, he crossed the river after the bridges were burned, and his heavy bags of cash are now, as Major Ruffin desired, transferred into Kentucky hogs. To have gotten possession of that large amount of treasure would have been viewed as a God send by the Unionists of East Tennessee.

These deserters were this morning turned over to General Wool by Lieutenant Christensen, Aide-de-camp to General Phelps.--General Wool, after having examined them very closely, had them sent over to the Rip-Raps, where they will find work, and receive food and clothing, and where they will also be out ofGeneral Wool, after having examined them very closely, had them sent over to the Rip-Raps, where they will find work, and receive food and clothing, and where they will also be out of harm's way. Yesterday afternoon General Phelps sent out a detachment of Company D, First New York Volunteers, under command of Lieut, Ingersoll, to a house belonging to Baker P. Lee, about three miles from camp. For the last month the only occupants of the house have been a poor white woman and three regresses. Some days ago Lee sent a messenger to this white woman, warning her to leave the house, as he purposed to burn it down over her head. The woman was, of course, frightened, and fl

men, with others, were impressed into service. Of course all their protestations were unheeded. They left Big Bethel at six o'clock in the morning, and by keeping in the woods and wading through swamps they succeeded in making good their escape, although at one time they were very closely pursued. They state that the comp at Bethel is about five thousand strong, an equal quantity of them from Louisiana, Georgia, and Virginia; besides these there are three hundred cavalry under the name of "Cobb's Legion." The camp is under command of Brigadier-General McClaws. There exists a good deal of dissatisfaction among the men on account of the insufficient clothing, the cruel treatment, and the want of promptness in the pay department; since May last they have only received two months pay, and that, of course, in shinplasters, which they are unable to get rid of except by buying sutler's goods at exorbitant prices. Tobacco costs 50 cents a plug; butter 60 cents a pound; salt 25 cents a

t the fever, which makes such havoc among them, they dig up safras roots and make a kind of tea of them, which they drink on getting up in the morning. During these five months they have had to work constantly on the batteries, and all the spare time has been filled up with fatiguing drills, while the men are forbidden the use of liquor, the officers are drunk most of the time, and it is surprising, with all the discontent prevailing in the ranks, that no mutiny has yet taken place. Gen. Magruder, who as commander of the entire force in that neighborhood, occasionally visits their camp, and, to use the very words of the deserters, "Whenever he is in whiskey he always talks of coming down to Newport News to whip Gen. Phelps." But not having come here yet, and not being willing to receive any of our invitations, it is supposed that when he has got over his "drunk" better reason prevails.

Yesterday afternoon General Phelps sent out a detachment of Company D, First New York Volunteers, under command of Lieut, Ingersoll, to a house belonging to Baker Pcondition, and the other two, being old and diseased, unable to take care of themselves. Out of feelings of humanity, Gen. Phelps, yesterday ordered the above mentioned detachment to proceed to the house, and after they had buried the dead woman, t

The Herald's Newport News Correspondence. In the New York Herald we find the following correspondence from "Camp Butler, Newport News, Va., Oct. 27, 1861:" Last night, at seven o'clock two deserters from the rebel camp at Big Bethel came to our outside pickets for protection. Their names are Wm. Dennis and Andrew J. Smarss and they are both natives of Augusta, Ga, and privates in the tenth regiment Georgia Volunteers. The word "volunteers" must not, however, be taken in its literal sense, for these men, with others, were impressed into service. Of course all their protestations were unheeded. They left Big Bethel at six o'clock in the morning, and by keeping in the woods and wading through swamps they succeeded in making good their escape, although at one time they were very closely pursued.
