THE EXPEDITION TOWARDS RICHMOND.
Baltimobe, February 9: —The American has*
a special despafeh from Fortress. Monroe, from
C. C. Fulton, who has been up- to Citjr Point.
It says:
The rebel flag-cf-truce steamer Schultz, with
Commissioner Gold and Captain Hatch, the
truce officer, arrived on Sunday morning at
City Point.
Two citizen prisoners, brought, down by the
Schultz, were sent on board the New Turk.
They were both Marylanders. One of them,
Mr. A. F. Breugle, of Frederick, Md., was
captured at Middletown on the 20th of June
last, whilst acting as a volunteer assistant to
the Sanitary Commission, and the other, Geo.
\Y. Longley, of Baltimore county,was captured
whilst driving a wagon of the Sanitary Com
mission near Chancellorsville on the 27th of,
November. They were released through the
interposition of the Eev. Mr. Petriken.
The prisoners brought exciting news from
Bichmond, which they represent to have been
in a state of feverish excitement from mid
night on Saturday up to the time they left, at
2 o’clock on Sunday afternoon.
At midnight on Saturday the bells of the
city were rung and men were rushing through
the streets crying “To arms! to arms—the
Yankees are coming.” *' *
During the remainder of the night an intense
commotion was everywhere visible. The Home
Guards were called out, 'and the tramp ol
armed men could be heard itrail directions.
‘j Cannon were hauled through the streets,
women and children were hurrying to and fro,
and there were all the evidences Of such a panic
as had seldom been w itnessed in Richmond.
On Sunday morning there was no abatement
in the excitement. ;
The guards were all marched out of the city
to the defences, and the armed citizens placed
on guard over the prisoners. “
Horsemen were dashing to and fro, and the
excitement among the prisoners to know the
cause of all this commotion became intense.
It was soon learned that a large cavalry and
infantry force, with artillery, had' made their
appearance on the Peninsula at Bottom’s
Bridge, within ten miles of the city, and that
Richmond was actually threatened by the
Yankees.
The same hurrying of troops, arming of citi
zens and excitement among the women anl
children continued during the morning.
At 2 o’clock in the afternoon, when the pri
soners were about to leave in the truce boat,
the alarm bells were again rung with great
fury, and they left a scene of confusion and
turmoil such as they had never before wit
nessed in the city.
The rumors that prevailed were conflicting
and wild. It was their impression that 8,000
or 10,000 cavalry would have found but little
difficulty in entering the city, liberating the
prisoners, destroying the forts and public pro
perty, and returning by the Peninsula before
any sufficient force to resist them, could be
brought to the aid of the small garrison left to
defend it.
For several days previous to this alarm, the
troops in and around the city,to the number of
4000 or 5000, had been sent off to join Lee’s
army with great dispatch, the impression pre
vailing that a movement was contemplated by
Gen. Meade, j \
In this they were right, as during the pro
gress of the excitement on Sunday, intel
ligence was received that Meade had crossed
the Rapidan. \
On Monday morning a courier arrived at
City Point bringing copies of the morning'-
papers with the intelligence that the excite
ment had abated, and that it had been ascer
tained that the Yankees were falling back
from the Chickahominy and had abandoned the
attack.
