From:a.fedeial officer'who was up Red

treat, of the annyfrom, Pleasant Hill, the
feeling against ,Getieral Banks had :been
bontinuallY increasing. < Every day added
new and more aggravating causesfor.dis.

over; thefalls:-tbEre were: the most serious
apprehensions iii ,reference to the - suit'.
ciency.:Of suppliea, both: for.the men and
tbe.animals. , TO make the natter worse,
Gencral.Banks leaned an. order giving te
General itscrenstnirs oommandewho was
caniped-„porth. of BaYoui Rapides, rie, , the.
outer guard, : pearly all the: oatsand2lury
there was on band,,,ileavingAther com

caurd pp little. dissatisfaction ,among the
men, , 4ndio iaggravate the Matter still
more;_jtist a , 3icalerbtlid goV , his-forage
out to his camps, the rebels made a dash
ea him; , compelling him to-make a-precip
itata retreat across the bayou, and, te de
itroy, ar Ilaein the hapila vithii ano,i,
all the forage,'camp equippage, etc., A
part ,waa , destroyed, but it is said Dick
Taylor got the larger portion. The indig
.nation and dissatisfaction of the soldiers
Were - now beyond all bounds. CemPlete
deindralisation seemed almost inevitable.
Other orders of General Banks were fre
quently treated with contempt by his sub
ordinates, and men openly declared their
intentions to pay- no '. attention to :any
orders enameling from the , commanding
general.. ..
When the gunboats were all over , the
falls, and the order for evacuation was
promulgated; and the army nearly all on
the March, some Of our soldiers,, both
',Atte and black,aii:if by general -under
standing, set fire to-the city in nearly•ev
ery part, almost simultaneopsly. The
liam - ea .: spread ..raPidly,LAnernased by- a
strong wind. Most ofthe houses were of
wood, <and were soon devoured by the
flames. Alexandria- was a town of be
tween four and five thousand inhabitants.

was-a large brick hotel, which must-have
cost one- hundred - thousand dollars,- mid
was 'owned by Judge Ariail; a mernberof
the late constitutional convention, who vo
ted for immediate and unconditional eman
cipation in Louisiana; which convention
also sent delegates to the Baltimore' leen
tendon. While Judge A. was thus serv ;
lag the administration, the Federal torch
was spelled to his houses, his law office,
his private and law library, and all his
household goods and. effects. All this
property; be it remembered, bad been
protected for three years, by the confed
erates, Who all, the, time 'new theJadge's
