whence some of .Its Incidents have been drawn, as also
the narrative which ha, famished Its f»nndwork.

of troth, may, perhaps, find some little Interest In this -

The 8d Divlalori'BtSrted at the Bame time from

some of them 600 feet In length. We have found
great abundance in this country for our men and

NATUBE HABIBO SHAD'S* FOB A MOVB,
tEo fair, cool weather of to-day, rapidly dissi
pating the mud, gives a . promise of speedy move
ments, that Is most acceptable- to both officers and
privates. Singe the -affair at 1 Dabney’s Mills no
thing has occurred to relieve the monotony of oatnp
life, save the constant arrival »f deserting parties
from the enemy; and the troops, day by day, read
ing theaooounts of Shermania wondrous marches,
and contrasting the hum-dram sort of existence
they are compelled to lead -here, for awhile, with
the activity and excitement prevailing in the other
theatres of war, are weary, of the tedium, and
eager for the order to- “ pack knapsacks. 1 ’
As an evidence of this,, it Is wonderful how
rapidly the newS of “marehlng i orders” ls spread
from camp to camp and corps to corps; and If It be
false it will travel none the-slower on that account.
The impression- is widespread, and amounts to a
conviction how, that before many days—perhaps
before the dose of the week, Bbonld weather favor—
■ we shall have news of “marching orders” In verity.
The rebels evidently anticipate a speedy movement
of opr forccß, and have-eenoentrated all their avail
'able troops on their right,, where tbe Mow will most
assuredly fall.
FKIBMDI,TMBSa OB OPPOSING SOLDIBBS.
Still, .although - both armies are aware that they
must -shortly engage each other In perhaps the
fiercest contest of thawar > lt is singular to observe
wbat an entente csaditUe exists between the plohets.
And this remarkable circumstance sustains the Idea
of the loyal press mf the North, that reconciliation,
between tbe two,.people wW return with tbe return,
of peace, if the men whose eMef business It is to
shed eaeh-other’s blood can play the part of friends
upon the eve of-the battle, how short-lived, after all,
must be their animosity, who never meet each other
face to face,, but mate mere words the weapons
wherewith tofight their battles 1-
CESSATION OP PICKET BHOOTINQ.
Anothcr evidence of friendly feeling between the
two armies Is found In the fact that pleket shooting,
4n the 6th Corps, and, to a great extent, In. all the
. other corps, -has become a thing of the pash
Between the eth Corps plohets and the enemy
thlsamleable feeling Is most observable* perhaps
. for the reason that the opposing lines are here quite
Moss together, in some places being less than a
stone’s throw apart. Such cold, raw nights as tbese It
is necessary for the plohets to kindle a fire, and fire
wood In sojw places Is rather a soaroeartlole. At
such times negotiations are entered ft to between
• the combatants, generally In this farm: “Say,
yabks, want some wood!” “Yes; got any over
there to spare, Johnny!' 1 «We hatat got any just
now; but we’re gwlne to out a tree or-you ’uns; don’t
fire on us ’uns and we’ll give you ’uns half.” It*ls
only necessary to enter into this little parley. When
I happens to flourish on the “neutral
I, ground ” between the pleket lines, in a spirit of re
ciprocity, whenever our troops cut down a tree
[ “ Johnny " generally gets his half.
I . BSBBZf yiRIKO AT DBSBRTB&S*
. When a rebel attempts to desert In daylight,
a very frequent occurrence now-a-days, his com
rades wUI-not fire on him until they have
given' us the warning, “L'ayjriown, Yanks, we’re
fiolng to fire I” But tbe great majority of desert
ers come over at night, and the rebel pickets,
for tbe purpose of general Intimidation, and‘not
with the remotest Idea of ever .killing any par
ticular ohap, keep up a’ pretty . considerable
“popping” of musketry-after dark. This, how
ever, Is not the regular pleket-flring that used to
prevail; for their shots seldom reach our lines, and
our men rarely reply. Lee will trust none but his
veteran* on picket now, and the veterans are not
slow in turning the opportunity to good-account.
At the rate they are coming in Lee will have no
army left In six months.

MATTERS OF THB FAST STOF BLOOKADINU SQUAD;
BON—DESCRIPTION OF MANY PRIZES CAPTURED.
C Correspondence of Tbe Press. 1
Our squadron has bseh reinforced by several
steamers, which have been relieved from the Wil
mington bloohade. Admiral Striding has made
such disposition of thorn as, I think, trill soon stop
the bloekade-runnlng between Havanna and the
coast of Florida. The steamer Buby, a notori
ous blockade-runner, was captured on the 27th ult.,
ofi the Tcrtugaß, by the Proteus, Captain Shu
feldt, after a chase of two hoars, during which thir
ty-six shots were fired at her, several of which strnok
her, one of them a rifled shell, going through the
engine room, almost grazing tbe erank of the shaft,
and finally penetrating a4arge water tank, where It
exploded, flooding her decks with water. ’So great
was the determination of her oommander to escape
that he did not heave to until the Protons brought
her broadside guns to bear on her. She had about
forty persons,on board, none of whom were Injured,
though they had some- narrow escapes. The Kuby
Is an Iron paddle steamer, Clyde-built, sohooner-
I rigged, and has two smoke stacks- Her .tonnage is,
about MO tons, and she is represented as being very
staunch and fast, having run twelve knots during
the chase. She would answer very well for a gun
boat. I understand her oargo to consist principally
of provisions,
' The Marigold Captured the sohooner Lucy, on the
26th ult, She was only a few hours out fromHava-

flccs which Save made his name so oonspien*
ons In the annßls of these sad and stirring
times. This IS something; and to tftb just
and tolerant mind it Is much. When we
refieot that Andrew Johhßon, during his con

deportment, of - moderation, of frugality, of eco
nomy and unobtruslveness, we may well oonoelve

snob excitements as those In which we live, racking
the-braln and the body alike, the strong man quails
In the midst of his trials, and, In attempting to ward
off sickness, frequently resorts to stimulants.' It
should stand to Governor Johnson’s credit, that bo
forehe left Nashville he telegraphed to Washington
that ho was not tit to make Hie trip, and that he
would rather remain at home tb assist In the regene
ration and restoration of Tennessee than to be Vice
President of the United States. But after’a
council, held among his friends here, It was
deemed right that he should be present' to
participate in the august ceremonies of Mr.
Lincoln’s inauguration for a second term. In
obedlence to their earnest request he oame,
and when he reached Washington was so enfeebled
as to be compeLod to take to his bed at once Gov
Johnson appeared In the Senate yesterday morning
in oompany with his friend, Hon. Preston King, of
New 1 York. Who is staying with hlm> at the resi
dence of our hospitable fellow-citizen, Franols P.
Blair: Sr. Hls-hbalth is entirely restored. He was
as cheerful as any man oquld be after having re
covered from so severe an indisposition. We have
no doubt ho win rally instlfy the- warmest antioipa
turns oc ms countrymen. During Ms stay in the
Vice-President’s-room a large number of’the Se
nators oalled to paythoir respects,, and we observed
with mueh satisfaction that , they were pleased to
see him well. We now copy the article of tile Sun:
Thb Viob Pbbbbobht.—While . deprecating,
In common with every American citizen who
Is keenly .alive to the honor and dignity of
his oonhtry, the ■ conduct of Vice President
Johnson at the inauguration on the fourth of
march,' we would respectfully submit that the
spirit In which It is commented npon In public and
private Is scarcely less reprehensible than the of
tence which has been committed. Although we are
keenly sensitive of the - breach .or propriety, good
.taste, and sound sense; that' has been committed by
the magistrate holding the second office In the
United States Government, and can realise to some
degree the aid and comfort’thatl It will afford to’
foreign enemies and domestic traitors, yet It is due
to truth, if not to charity, to remember that there
are not wonting some circumstances In this case
which are Calculated to place the object of so
many-fierce assaults In an attitude' suggestive
as much of pity as of condemnation. Though .
ihr from agieeingwith‘many of the political views
of Andrew Johnson, we recognise that there Is not
in the United States a man who has rendered-more
effective service to.the Union cause. He has been'
in the very depths and whirlpool of Secession, and
beldlhlß ground,from first to last, like a man. Ata,
time when all men’s hearts forsook them, and when
the treachery of Mr. Buchanan, said the scarcely
disguised vacillation of Mr: Lincoln -and some of
his advisers, and the course of a large portion of the
puhllo preSß, headed by the Hew York Tribune, all
combined to render it extremely doubtful whether
any active opposition would be offered to the forma
tion of a Southern slave confederacy, Andrew John
son, of Tennessee, in hls-place In the United States
Senate, denounced Jeff Davis and the other South
ern traitors to their faces, and- maintained that
the American people would never snbaut to dis
union and dismemberment. He-resisted all the
blandishments of the ohlvalry, and ’abandoned
house, home, property, and everything, for the
Union, and he has ever been true to-Ms record.. As
Governor cl Tennessee he Inspired all ottr generals
there with.the saving grace of Ms Indomitable spirit
and strong will. It is no secret that at onetime
Nashville would have been evacuated but for hts
. opposition to the opinion of a well-known general,
who maintained that it should be abandoned. In a
strictly strategical point of view It should have
been; lor It had been flanked by Bragg’s army. Bat
pluck triumphed,- and Nashville S ours to this
day, and was the base for all Sherman’s glqrt
ous successes. "We who live- peaceably at home
cannot realize the fierce excitement and perils
to wbioh a border State Unionist is or was sub
jected who dares to stand up for his princi
ples Still legß can we comprehend the tremen
dous strain npon a leader of even Andrew Johnson’s
stalwart frame and robust mind. The over-excite
ment was too much for him, at last. The strong
man succumbed In Mb hour of triumph. At the
moment when his services had been recognized by
the American peeple, the Vice President-elect was
-stricken down with an illness from wMoh. It was
long doubtful whether he conld recover. He did
nob-dio, but has never been the same man since.
We have no heart to recount the old sad story of a
resort to stimulants, to reernlt the shattered ener
gies wMch had been wasted In-the noblest of all
causes- During our best, and what now appears
mos quiet times, the exoltement of ordinary poll
tics broke'down many-of the strongest men. As
compared with European statesmen;, our pub
lic men do netlive out naif their days. But now,
when the events of a hundred years- are crowded
within the space of a few months, who can tell the
wear and tear of brawn and brain of those who strug
gle In the heat and tMok of the contest 1 It Is,
perhaps. Mb misfortune rather than Ms fault, that
Andrew Johnson did not pass the ordeal unscathed.
The excitement that produced his sickness followed
him during Ms convalescence, and ho resorted to
strong drink to drown the clamor of officeholders,
that haunted President Taylor to Ms death. It
still remains to be decided whether "Vice President
Johnson has survived the period of Ms usefulness,
or whether his removal from Ms Mgh position may
not he necessary to the honor and dignity of our
country. But In the future, the memory of his ser
vices wHleellpse Ms faults, and we who reap the
benefits of Ms labors should not prejudice ourselves
before posterity byjndglng too harshly a man to
whom we owe so much.
Washington's Birthday in London.
The dinner in honor of the 133 d. anniversary of
Washington’s Birthday came off on the 22d, at St.
Jameß’ Ball, as proieoted. It was an entirely pri
vate affair of about one hundred guests, male and -
female, no reporters being present, and no English
guests except half a dozen specially invited. Mr. :
lorse, our consul, presided, and Mr. Adams ho- i
nored the festivity. Here Is a list of the toasts and ;
those who responded to them, after which I shall j
offer a few observations: “The Memory of Wash- ;
ington,” Mr. Adams. “Abraham Lincoln,-Presi
dent of the United States,” Mr. James Beale, an
Englishman. “The Queen,” Mr. Parker, of Bos
ton? “The Union," the Bov. Mr. Haynes, of
New York, and Dr. Wilkinson, an Englishman.
“The Military and Naval Foroes of the Uni
ted States,” Dr. Blohardsos, an Englishman.
“The Press,” Mr. Bergh, United States Ar
my. “The Ladles;” Mr. Curtis, of New York.
The chairman Introduced-the toasts In an appropri
ate maimer, alluding very effectually to recant
events In the United States, and espeolally to the
abolition of slavery and'constitutional amendment,
which was perhaps what some present hardly bar

of Washington, and predicted that at no time In ;
the past history of his country bad he been so re- :
vered, understood, and appreciated as he would be
in the lutuie towards whlcn we are progressing, in
volving Union, peace, and a return to prosperity In
the sines. Mr. Parker discoursed of the Queen In
a social, rather than' a political aspect; and Mr.
Beale believed that posterity would do that j ustlce
to the name of Abraham Lincoln whleh was . now
commonly denied him. The several toasts were ac
companied by-national and patriotic airs, and, after
dinner, the company aOjourned .to the drawing
room, when a few songs were sudg, and a dance con
cluded the evening’s entertainments. lam credi
bly ibformed that the committee aotually proposed,
at the outset, to Invite a person named MoCiol
lan to take the ebair, and that the motion
would probably have been carried Into effect
had the individual been In. England Instead of
France, from which clronmstances I Infer that my
strictures on anglicized Amerioan and Copperheads
do. apply to the getters-up of this entertainment,
and that In the strongest sense, in fact, our best
friends here, Messrs. Oobden, Bright, Forster, Bax
ter, Mason,- Jones, and others, have been cold
shouldered and excluded from ail participation In
the proceedings; In defqrenae to latent Obpporhead
lsm and snobbish toadyism of dominant British opi
nion. MrTEstoourt, chairman of tbe Sfnion Eman
cipation Committee of Manchester, was Invited,
but not permitted to open Ms mouth, exoept .for the
purpose of eating. Observe that none of the toasts
recognized emancipation.- The time may arrive
when Baranra-wlll Import from Europe, as a curio
sity, an American of the old_sohool—a believer in
slavery, and the things as they were before tbe re

A Bit or History.
The Philadelphia Frees, In an artiole eulogistic of
General Butler, says: ...
“ When ; the events of these turbulent years are
written in history, it will be said of Butler that he
broke tbe slave letter with theword ‘contraband,’«
It is nothing against General Butler to say, as
we do on the very best authority, that the “contra
band” Idea was not original with Mm. It was ad
vancfid and argued, ana t ha. term made uee of, in a
letter to the New York Tribune, written from
Fortress Monroe some time before General Butler
reached there, and berore the subject engaged Mb
attention. Subsequently the question of the status
and treatment of refugee negroes was the subject of
conversation on the ramparts of Fortress .Monroe,
when a young lieutenant In the regular army, since
dead, made wbat we believe was the very first
' speech, lasting about half a minute, in favor of the
= “contraband” Idea, as it was afterwards adopted.
-The listeners were General Butler, Com. Fender

Immoral Advertisements.
From The FrastyteriSh 3 , I
The numerous advertisements of anrlmmoral
character, and designed to further Immoral pur
poses and ends, which appear in the secular jour- j
nals, are a great, offesee- to all good men, ana de- 1
serve, publio reprobation. It werfi well, Indeed, if I
snoh advertisements were seen only In secular jour- I
nals, and that, professedly rollglous papora wore free-1
rrom this stain. We know that all publishers are I
liable to be Imposed upon by sharp men,'adroitly
concealing the real oharaoter of tholr wares, for we |
have.snffe»d once or twloe ourselves; .hut a severe
scrutiny Bbould be -bept upon the oolomns of all I
ionmals, religious aha seonlar, and the responsl
bUltlesof editors and pubUsbera should never be
forgotten or disregarded; We aro glad to notloc tbe
action of one Influential soaular paper, whioh Is so.
entirely In the right dlreotlontbat It deserves public
and bearty commendation. Tbo Public: Ledger of I
Phlladelpbia has lately been purchased by Mr.
George -w. ObUds,-the well-known publisher, and
be has determined rigidly to .exoluia; all adver- j
tiring of an Immoral oharaoter. This, as all pub- 9
lisberS; of newspapers know, Involves the-toss of
thousands of dollars annually; but the sacrifice has.
been cßeerfully and nobly made. The whole list off
vile medical advertisements - whioh most secular
- papers contain, and many religious papers still pub
lish,has disappeared from, the. Lswav.and Its
eolnmns are without a stain. The,resolute purpose
' of. Mr. OMlds is to keep them pure, ana wo honor
him for his purpose and hla action. Wo hopo the
Christian people of this country wIU not be indif
ferent to this movement, bet will so sustain Mr.
OMlds as to induce other journals to follow his good
example. Parents, espeolally, should scruonlza
tbe papers whioh they admit to their householder
and through which their sons and daughters learn
more than the; suspect of the mysteries and vies of
our largo cities. We are glad tu be able to com
- mend the Ledger as a journal which, In addition to
-Us great value as a newspaper, has placed itself
distinctly on the side of morality and public virtue.

The (task market was dull yesterday, the gales foot-
Ink up ( smaller amount than for some days. The con*
tinned depression in the cold market quite unsettled all
prices. Holders of produce and merchandise evidently
feel a little blue over the"proepeet before them; bui it
does not follow, after all, that they could have done
any better, if they had foreknown the course of events
to this date- It may be that, "the beginning of the
end 1 ' is just at hand, and that the bottom is to drop out
of prices and never be replaced. Certainly It is with
satisfaction that we quote a decline in butter, eggs, gro
ceries, and other comforts which have been at prices
almost shove the reach of the poor. But we shall he
surprised if there is a steady downward tide, with
no Intervals' of reaction Such a one sided develop
meut would he unnatural, and hardly to be expected.
The decline in stocks does not-kcep pace, however,
with that in merchandise, for the stock market is still
buoyed up by the oil stock speculations. Sovemmtttt,
losne continue depressed, and the sales are at lower
Caere*. The 1881 s sold at 11C—a decline of X; the new
6-20 s sold at 10911—(decline of X; and the old sold at 97X;
State 5s were steady at 87; City loans continued de

was little said in Company bonds, but prleas were

188; Beading closed at about 64}<t-*. slight advance;
Morristown was steady at® The chief feature of the
oil-stosk market was a further decline of Big Tank to 4;
Sugar Halo was also weak at 57f:Sugsr Creek declined
