No liquor in camp.

--Some difficulties having been caused by the use of ardent spirits at Warrington, Fla., Gen. Bragg, on the 9th inst., gave orders to close all the liquor shops. During the day liquor was sold secretly. The next day the whole town was patrolled, every house and room was searched and large quantities of liquor were destroyed. It is said now to be impossible to get a drop of "the ardent" within five miles of the camp.
