Wcgro Soldiers In the Camp and Hold. Let me Bay a word about tbe negro regiments. Tier are confined (I believe}'to oen. Butter's de partment, and to the SeeondOorpS or Gen. Meade’s army. If the officers serving In any of those regi ments be ashed for their opinion, they will, without exception, pronounce In favor of colored troops, as being fully equal, on the whole, to white Northern soldiers. This testimony, however, must bo received with a grain of salt, simply because It is that of a body of men who are filled with the esprit du corps, every exoellenoe in which reflects credit upon themselves. Making allowance for thJB,I think the ooolnesß shown by the black troops under Are, while at work In the Duteh Gap Canal, Is equal to that whioh would bo evinced by troops of any ooloror.race. it has been stated that they are now partly protected by the embankment. Not fttlly, however, as the workers are soattered over a length of probably two hundred and fifty feet, and into the rear >oxl it la not very difflonlt to drop shells. When the first gun, on Tuesday forenoon, was fired, while the white spee tator was read; to take advantage of a contigu ous battery, Sambo worked away with apparent tmooncem. I did not learn that there had been a general “ skedaddle” at any time since the ground was first broken there. In drilling, It Is admitted by all that the black troops exeel, few of our white regiments oomlngup with theirs, after having learn ed the exorcise. They have largely developed that faculty known by phrenologists as time, so that *all will come to a halt or any motion with a precision whioh challenges admiration. This faculty also shows itself Jn the general exeroise of their martial music. In the encampment on City Point the black drum-corps Is confessedly the best to be found; and thetreglment, whenever it goes out to drill, is sure to draw a crowd of gratified observers. Of the conduct in battle of negro soldiers I'have had no opport unity to make observations, and, there fore, can add nothing to the mass of testimony al ready before the country. Their weak point, I think, would be in oase a regiment were demoralized, when that presence of mind which does so much to make a body of men recover from a panto, would probably be found wanting in their case. They stampeded from the mine before Petersburg like so many wild animals; yet It should be borne in mind that white .sdldlers would most likely have kept very poor order in making their escape from that fealful slaughter-pen. It Is safe, I think, to sum up thus: In the negro regiments more'depends on the officers than in white rogiments. With first-class men as leaders, there is little doubt that Ouffee out be made to handle a musket as effectually as Mr. Smith. But with no efficient officers,ln theeventofa repulse, I should be afraid of a black regiment being annihilated. Per contra, the negro is acclimated; bcknowv the country; he has an incentive to fight such as we palefaces cannot understand ; and he has shown none of thabsavage ferocity which some an ticipated. As a guard, he is as vigilant and faithful ns could be desired; but It won’t do to attempt play ing pranks with him, unless the offender desires to get a punch In the ribs with the cold end of a bayo net. They tell some amusing instances of tbe man ner he emphasizes the word “Halt, dar!” when a stranger happens to step up too . closely after , nightfall. “ Well, how do you like soldiering 1” 2 inquired of a hundred of them at different times. ‘'Would yon rather be a slave than a sol dier!” Nearly half the number responded affirma tively; the others would shrug up their shoul ders and apswer, “Dunno.sah, [never massa.] Sol derin’ ’s putty-hard, sah.” “ But you are working out your own freedom, boys, and that of your children after you for all time. So never mind the present service that you have to perform in eom anon with ourselves for the country.” Then their feces would lighten up, and all would reply to the exhortation .with a " Yes, sah, we will.” Befbre ten seconds It would not be strange If half the com pany were not hustling one another off tholr feet, and setting up shouts of laughter.— Correspondence Hew York Advertiser. National Cemetery at Chattanooga, 01R0UX.AK. Chattanooga, Tenn., Ang. it, 1864.—The ap. polntments Of the National Oemetery, in‘this viol nity, are each as should command the Interest and aid of the nation. The grounds are extensive, of splendid suscepti bilities, are handsomely laid out, and surrounded with a heavy stone wall. The seotions are accu rately measured and finely shaped, and already nearly five thousand martyrs of freedom have here their final resting-place, In all that pertains to this cemetery there has been au effort to give expression to American ideas. In harmony with am intense individualism, eaoh soldier lies a separate grave, and, as far as possible/ each shall have a. separate history. And in this commingling of the mon'from'different States, la concentric'tiers of graves, and the radiation of the seotions from the centre, where the great monument Is to stand, there will be the strongest symbolic ox-' pression of our brotherhood of freemen—of that which is the soul of our political organism, and the source of.out national unity. Hitherto all the work has been done by soldiers, and most of what remains may be done by the com rades of the dead. Still, money will be needed to adorn, complete, and keep in order this cemetery, whioh Is made national by the interments of a single week. To raise money appropriately and effectively it is proposed to sell approved portraits of prominent f;enerals separately, and afterwards compile them n a biographical work, and also to compile a work from materials furnished by the cemetery. The lat ter work will comprise the dedicatory address, sketches of officers burled In the cemetery, names of all soldfera who have been Identified before inter ment, views on steel of the grand scenery in prox imity, now historic from the associations of battles and victories, views of oemetery, lithographed drafts of seotions, battle maps, and such other matters a 3 may be pertinent. And so accurate have been the measurements in shaping seotions and looatlng graves, so correct will be the record of the dead, and so full fhe representations of the cemetery in out line and detail in this work, that any Intelligent per son can find, with Its aid alone, the grave of every soldier name is known. The portraits and books will be made ready for distribution as soon as possible, and offered for sale In the army and throughout the country, and every dollar accruing,' beyond aetual eost, will swell the fund of the cemeterv. It certainly would be consonant with the unpre cedented liberality of onr people In contributions for the health and comfort of our soldiers to give eminent -suedess-to our enterprise, which proposes lasting and appropriate honors to those who have given their lives for their country.

Thomas Holland, the proprietor of the McClellan' House, In Dock street, below Second, and Lizzie Hart were arraigned at the Central Station, yester day afternoon, on the charge of being implicated in the recent robbery of a fire-proof ohest at the public house of Mr. Frank Ball, on Front street. The following rather unexpected evidence was developed: Emma Holland (the sailor boy) was called to the stand.. She testified that on Thanksgiving night some men had a large black thing on a carriage, and they stopped at her house and wanted admit tance ; she refused them, and they went towards Front street; Thomas Holland, her husband, was one of the men; she heard the party the next morn ing talk about five hundred dollars and over, and some watches, which they had obtained. Mr. Holland made use of some remarks of a soft of taunting or insulting character. He charged her with having shot a woman on the previous evening. On this point the witness said she did not shoot a woman; her husband was drunk, and during the past two months had treated her in a very brutal manner, and that on Tuesday evening he drew'a revolver upon her; she caughtthe pistol and turned it over his shoulder; at this moment the weapon went off, and, it is reported, a woman was shot. She and her husband had been bound over to an swer. Lizzie Hart was called to the stand. She testified that on last Friday morning Mr. Tom Holland handed her a little package, and told hor to keep It for him until he asked her for it; - she kept It about her person until apolice officer asked her for it on Frldaynight; she then gave it to him ; She could not understand how the officer knew she had it; she did not know what was in the little package; she never examined it. » This package was a small roU of paper, contain ing twelve pieces of ooin, four of them being foreign. These pieces were positively Identified by Mrs. Bail as having been with other pieces in the fire proof that was stolen Horn her house. Mr. Holland seemed to be very uneasy daring the investigation. He was required to enter bail In the sum of $3,000 to answer. Lizzie Hart was required to recognize in the sum of $7OO. A third person was arraigned. He was held to ball in the Sum of $lOO to await a further hearing, the evidence so tar being fllghtly circumstantial relative to him. BURGLARY, ROBBERY AND ARREST. The dwelling of Mr. E. W. Ouram, No. 32T Wash ington avenue, wag entered sometime between ll o’clock on Tuesday night and daybreak yesterday morning, and robbed of a number of articles of wearing apparel. Yesterday morning a son of Mr. Ouram made a tour among the pawn shops, to Inform the keepers of them of the . robbery, and to stop any of the stolen articles that might happen to he ottered. While on this mission, at the establishment of Mr. Stewart, on South Sixth street, a young man entered and offered to pawn two coats. These were Identified as the property of Mr. Ouram. The young man was at once taken into custody and conducted to the Central Station, where he was identified as John Crowley, who, a few years since, was one of a gang of half-grown boys who had robbed upwards of lorty dwelling ho uses in different parts of the city, mostly in Spruce, Pine, and Eighth streets. He was tbe little boy who crept through the small back windows—the “Oliver Twist”—to invade premises and then unfasten the doors. Three years Ip the Eastern Penitentiary added much to his figure. He is now full grown, and not a bad-looking youngman. He was liberated from prison several weeks sinoe. Upon being arraigned, he assumed to have an Im pediment in his speech, and gave the name of Harry Allen. The evidence as to the burglary and robbery, the arrest and recovery of the stolen goods having been elicited, the prisoner was asked if he had anything to say. He replied that he was standing at Sixth and Sprnoe streets, in the morn ing early, and a strange man came along and handed him the coats, with the request to pawn them. Further than this he knew nothing. He said he was an oak cooper by trade, worked for a firm on Water street, below Walnut, about a year since, but slnee that time had been engaged in opening oysters on Spruce-street wharf. To the un initiated this story would appear piadslble. The prisoner was committed in de&ult of $3,000 to answer at court. MALICIOUS MISCHIEF. James McCarter was arraigned at the Central Station, on the charge of malicious mischief. It seems that he was driving a loaded wagon, yester day afternoon, on the railroad track on Ninth street, above Chestnut. A man named Wm. Middleton was driving a light wagon on the track, in a contra* aireotlon. The parties met and came to a halt. Neither would give way for the other. A police officer ordered McCarter to turn off, as the other man had the right to the track. McC. was not in a very pleasant mood, and In turning off the rails drove his wagon into the legs of Mr. Middleton’s horse, and considerably' Injured the animal. The spectators were horrified at such a display ,of wantonness. The fellow was at bnoe taken Into custody. He was committed In default of *BOO to answer at court. [Before Hr.
