In every party of refugees landed here, there are always a number of helpless child ren, many of them orphans or fatherless. I have seen them in shivering groups on the levee, clad in were rags. most of them guttering with colds, mea sles, or other diseases caused by exposure and hard ship. Many of the poor little things die before we can obtain homes for them. They are taken to the Temporary Rome, warmly clothed, and made as comfortable as possible, but wane, Buttering, mid disease have in many eases committed such ravages upon their poor little frames that but little can be done for them. One family came in a few weeks ago. consisting of five children, their parents, and an aged grandmother. We could not restrain our tears a. the latter, a poor old woman Of seventy live, told us in tremulous tones of the haidehips they had un dergone. She had but a tingle garment on, having taken part of her own clothing to make the children More comfortable. A day or two after they had been placed in the ‘V Home" she suddenly died ; and one slier another of the family was called away, until now only the mother and two of the children are left. And this is only one case Out of hundreds that might be described, No one can imagli.e, unless on the spot to bear the sad tale trom their own lips, how greatly these poor wanderers have puttered and are suffering. Thank the ladies of your congregation for their very prompt rejoinder to our appeal.

Affewionately, yours in the Lord, THO NEA.S LYLE, Rector of Church of the Redeemer, Cairo, 11l The London News on the Reorganization of the National Army. Now Yoram, March is. A general order appeared from General Grant yes. tetday morning, announcing that he takes the Qom , rusted in chief of the army, and that hie headgear tern are for the pi esent with the Army of the Po tomac. This is, to most people, Mote a surprise and a relief. Rumors of General Meade's removal have been afloat for several weeks, and the •Con gressional Committee at present engaged In an h. gutsy "into the conduct of the war,' have for the last week been occupied in a most absurd and unprofitable investigation into a charge against him 1.4 having intended to retreat before the battle of Gettysburg, mainly supported by General Sickles. The p bhe was begin.n,ng to fear, therefore, IWO Meade was about to be sacrificed, as Generals Pope and Burnside and Hooker undoubtedly were, to the intrigues of his subordinates, and that we should see him succeeded by one of the latter, who in his turn .would make way for anmehods else in a few months. Ever since McClellan's day that army has in fact been a hotbed of intrigue McClellan Alai all the principal posts with his own creatures, and they never forgot their benefactor, and never ceased to fief that their fortunes were bound up with his. After his removal they deter mined that ncbody who took his place should do better than he did; so that they betrayed Pope, thwarted Burn .l44le, awl intrigued again-et Tracker. A large number of them have, of courts, been gradually weeded out, to that it can hardly be said now that any high com mand is filled by a IlleClellanite, properly so called. But the spirit which they crested remains behind them, and it may safely be said that there is hardly a general of a corps or of a division in that army who does not aspire to the chief command ; and is not constantly engaged in pushing his claims to it, not by positive disobedience of orders— no one has attempted this but Fitz Johu Poster, and he was cashiered for it-but by want of diligence and energy in obeying team— want, in short, of all hearty co-operation. And there is a constant tendency amongst them to take the reanotaibility of making little coups on their own account, with the view of getting up a reputa tion distinct from that of the general in command. It is believed to be this widen led Sickles to ad vance hip corps at Gettysburg 600 or 700 yards beyond Meade'a line, thus leaving a gap into Which Longs's eet threw himself with terrible effect. This spirit of insubordination has, of course, been de 991). loped by the frequent changes in the command in chief. The insecurity of each commanding genera naturally opens up tempting possibilities to all around. Everybody feels that the choice may next fall on him, and he longs for a fresh change in order to have his chance. You may imagine the effect of all this upon discipline,and upon the general's power of executing ombined move ments in such a country as Virginia. Whet haw been wanted to put an end-to this state of things was the accession to the chief command of a man of sufficiently high reputation to place him above rivalry, 'and silence cavilling and criticism. This Grant possesses, and it is generally felt that he will now get out of the Army of the Potomac LOOM than anybody else has ever got out of it. The morale of the rank and file is, I hear from every side, excellent. The men have grown into real soldiers, and advance, retreat, and light as a bueineas, cheerfully and twin. quilly, without much regard to who loads them. General Meade, I presume, will still retain the command under Grant, and as the two beat generals on each side are now pitted against each other for the first time, we look forward to a campaign of ex .traordinary interest in Virginia. It is believed by persons whose opinion on these matters is usually valuable, that Grant's plan involves the cessation of offensive operations in Tennessee beyond vigor. ous cavalry raids ; the maintenance of a force at Chattanooga sufficiently strong to hold John *ton in check, and threaten Georgia, now the Southern granary and arsenal; the keeping open of the Mississippi by vigorous operations against the bands that, still infest Western Lonielana and Arkansas ; and the concentration of all other forces, except those at Charleston, for an attempt to finish Lee and take Richmond, and drive the enemy into the eastern cotton States. I think this, or something like this, is the programme for the sum mer; so that the next campaign will be fought for the possession of Virginia. On What line. Grant will operate against Richmond I ens unable to pre dict, and I doubt if any one knows, but I am in clined to think that he will combine an advance passim% Lee's position in front with a movement on his communications from the peninsula. I under• stand that, alter having examined the situation on his recent visit to Washington, he insisted on the immediate formation of a strong reserve, and 200,- 000 more men have accordingly been called for. The general belief is that his intention is to "force the fighting," and to force the Confederates to develop their whole strength at whatever cost, so that the result if unsuccessful may be fatal. There is in his mind, as well as in that of the public, a profound conviction of the necessity of putting an end to the war on a great scale this mummer, and tremendous efforts will be made to do it, so that I look for, per haps, the bloodiest campaign of the war. Slerman takes Grant's place in command of the "Military Division of Mississippi. He is un questionably an able soldier, and enjoys more of arant's confidence than perhaps any other officer. His fault is that he is hard to the verge of cruelty, a man of iron, who in war sees nothing but war, and is disposed to lay a heavy hand on the South. The rystem resorted to by the Confederate Government of " impressing" supplies for their own army Amongst their own people, and foreleg the farmers to cart them to the nearest railway its. lion, besides levybig tithe, in kind, and making their delivery at the Government depots obit• gatory in the same manner, has, as might have been expected, furnished the Federal. with an excuse for destroying all kinds of private property likely to prove or any service to the enemy, cotton, corn, and forage, besides carrying off mules, horses, and cattle. The unfortunate inhabitants are thus placed between two fres. If one aide does not de. spoil them the other is sure to do so. Longstreet has just cleared the mountainous district of East Tennessee of everything of value. Western Klestil. sippi was settling down into an approach to peace and quiet, and the farmers were planting their crops with -a strong expeotation of reaping them, when Polk gave indications of an intention to move down amongst them to levy taxes and bring in conscripts. This gave Sherman's, raid a cha racter of unexampled severity. He strapped the country of everything on the line of his march, and laid it waste on each aide of him for many miles, besides destroying over one buttered miles of railroad. Polk will not come now, but the unfortu nate people are much in the same condition a. if he had. Sherman is in fact the representative of the "root and branch policy," and any portion of the South which is subjugated by him will certainly not give much trouble after the war is over. It is folly to moralize or declaim over this. If this mode of car rying on the struggle Is likely to end it sooner than any other, it Di mercy to reeort to it, and there seems little question that from the condition of the Von. federate similes and 'their . Mode of supplying them. pelves, the wasting of produce is one of the readiest and surest ways of exhausting them. • A View tit the Camps. Morning after storm.

GENERAL NEWS. ORNBRAL SPIROLA'n WAR Icionen.—The faithful charger which bore Gen. Spin()Pa in safety through his brilliant campaigns and returned home again without losing a hair ollns mane, was this morning the victim of 'a sudden disappearance. The Gene. rat, it scams, had , financial tnisund-.ratandlnga with Mr, Blithe Morrell. The probability is that the General was en engrossed in the discharge of his du ties to his country that he forgot to discharge some Of his private obligations, and Mr. Morrell obi •ined a judgment against the General, and the sheriff levied on his war borne, a gray Bucephalus. The sale was once postponed, but was finally fixed for Today at my; o'clock A. M. Deputy Sheriff Thos. Murphy, in company with a few prospective bidders longing to possess so historical an animal, repaired to Sheridan's stable, in Say street, where the horse badbeen kept. ' But the stall was empty ; the horse hati . gone. The animal bad been seen there half an hour before, but since then nobody knew what had become of it. Mr. Murphy's suspicions at once fell upon the young man who officiated as groom to the General, 15y name Vandevater Matthews. Mr. Murphy went before Juanita Perry and got a war rant for Matthew", swearing that the Ileum was worth over twentyfive dollars—how worth he wouldn't risk bit reputation to say. Matthews was arrested. and stands committed for examination.— Brooklyn Eagle, 20th. TBE SON OP A. PROPRET.—The N. Y. Herald of yesterday says : Wendell Phillips Garrison, a son of William bloid Garrison, delivered an address last evening in Hltzeiberge r Hall, No. 20 Eighth avenue, under the auspices of the Sixtemith.svard 'Unconditional Union Club, and chose for his suajeot "The Basis of the New Republic." No charge was made for admission, and only a small . audience was present. After a patriotic song had been sung the speaker was introduced to the audience, and during a period of about forty minutes reiterated the doe. trines and arguments of the ultra Abolitionists. He condemned the amnesty and disfranchisement policy of the President as being no policy, and was especially indignant that the colored people had not been allowed to vote at the eleation recently held to what be called Lom•easynnna. He believed that the spirit which actuated the is ignorant and de. lulled barbarians" to massacre the colored troops at Fort Pillow also induced the President to doe. franchise tte colored people. It was a prejudice sgainat color. He apptoved of the confiscation act and the colovizetion scheme, which latter he inter . ;meted to mean that the South should be solonized by the North. The speaker contended that the South would have to he remodelled after the fashion of Massachusetts, and that them and then only, would the country be a Republic. " Tals 'OCTOROON" 1w It:RAI. LINN —A handsome octoroon girl ori A Mississippi plantation WfiA man ried eight years ago to a mulatto on the same plants, tion, and was afterwards mold to another planter, owing to her master's pecuniary difficulties. The couple were plainly told that she was intended as the new owner's mistress. Entreaties only resulted in her husband being savagely beaten anti her belee , to ken away. The wretched girl attempted suicide without success, and had no chance of escape, being ultimately forced to submit to her fate. She had one child by her brutal owner. George, the husband, afterward escaped, and succeeded in getting to El, rope on board an English ship, lie travelled mph there as a servant to families, and, a short time since, returned to Cleveland. Meanwhile, on the capture of New Orleans, the woman's owner had lied, and she escaped to Philadelphia, where she has since resided with a family as servant. Having gone to Cleveland a short time since on a visit, she met her long lost husband in the street, and both manifested the most intense joy. Thus, after so long and cruel a separation, they are happily re. united.—Netv Orleans Ere. A nonnantas INCIDBRT.—The people or Parker's Gap (pays the Chattanooga Gazette) were mush alarmed on the 13th by a rumor that there was a till man being in an old saltpetre cave near the Gap, sup. posed to be the same cave recently visited by Colonel Bingham, while on picket. The Colonel fatted to explore it on account of noxious vapors issuing from the opening. The ladies, God bless them! ever ready to respond to the calls of humanity, hurried to the rescue, but their united efforts were insuffi cient to extricate the sufferer. Surgeon Marks, Medical Director of the Division, and Surgeon Powers, of the artillery, were sent for, and alter a great deal of labor the poor fellow was taken from his living tomb. He was immediately recognized as John Harrison, Jr. It is supposed that this unfortunate man was deposited in the cave about the middle of last August, by his father, who is connected with the Mining and Nitre Bureau or the 0. S. A., and that be has remained there ever since. When taken out he was entirely helpless and speechless, and although youthful, was wholly des titute of hair and teeth.. He will not be able to tell the tale of his horrible suffering for years. flow he sustained existence in that• "dark, unfathomed cave" for threaquarters of a year, is a question for the student in physiology to answer. How COL. BOWMAN ENLISTED SLAVES.-001. - S. M Bowman came to.day, a shadow of his former self, worn nearly to death in the vast labor of en listing every male slave in Maryland of malting age and qualifications. He has cleaned " My Maryland " out, and knocked Bishop Hopkins , divine institu tion into limbo. Ho raised, in forty days, two full regiments of as tine black troops as can be; found on the earth. He left no slaves tit for military duty in Maryland. He overran with his squads every cow. ty ; they visited almost every farm. The boats ran up every stream until masters were obliged to hide their slave. in the woods, conceal them in boats, and confine them in jails and houses. lie opened the jails even. He has not drawn one dollar from the treasury, and his 3,000 black troops have not cost the Government five per cent. of what the same number of white troops cost. But in doing this work he laid aside all style, all form, and ceremony, went into negro churches nights, Sundays, whenever he could get an audience, and always addressed them on this, the great day of their salvation. MAXIMILIAN AND TH3 SOUTH.--Tile Richmond Examiner makes an effort to be lively over the news that Maximilian has snubbed Slidell, remarking: "NV ho is this Maximilian, and what is his empire, that we should court his notice, and invite him to give us so cool a ant t Our Government has existed three years ; his Empire is not yet quite born. Ours has stood alone—emphatically and gloriously alone ; bis cannot walk, and must be carried for many a day in the nurse's arms. We have sustained for three years the shock of a tempest of war so potent and terrible that one-tenth part of it, directed against him, would sweep him, crown and all, back into the Atlantic ocean." What follows is so coolly impudent that it pro vokes a girdle "It is very much more important to the Empire to be recognized by the Confederacy than to the Con federacy to be recognized by the Empire. But this is for the Emperor to find out, not for us to press upon his attention."
