Mrs. Greenhow.

--A rumor was prevalent in the city yesterday that Mrs. Rose Greenhow, of Washington, D. C., who has for many months enjoyed the hospitality of Abraham Lincoln in the so called ‘ "National Capital,"’ first as a prisoner in her own house, and lastly as an inmate in the old Capitol building, has arrived in Richmond. If the tyrant has released her, it was because that even he quailed before the might of her power as a representative of the feelings of every true Southern lady. She never hesitated to let the abolition horde of Washington know her sentiments. Mrs. Greenhow will be ever welcome in her native South.
