'The' raid was unexpected and perfectly successful, much to the chagnn'of the people hereabouts. Upon reaching-the farm it was four.d that upward of one hundred negroes had been run off by these dar- ine marauders, and it is probable that they are pursuit.

In the southern part of North Carolina, the cars stopped before a handsomt private residence. Upon the porch stood two young girls, fashionably dressed, and so far as outward appearance went, apparently ladies of refinement. No sooner however, had they ascertained our character, than they betrayed in their demeanor that they were unworthy of this title.

One of them took out her handkerchief niade a loop of it, and passed it around her in a pantomimic way, that we were either worthy of hanging or deserved to be hanged'; perhaps both ideas were intended to bo conveyed. The other young lady contentented herself with simply clutching her throat in both 'hands and mimicking the contortions of a strangling person. When the train passed on, both'of them shook their little fists at us with 'terrible energy, and we felt much safer When they had passed from view. At length we reached Richmond, and where placed in Castle we're all civilian prisoners, whether 'Northern or Snnth6rn loyalists arpplacrd. There were about six hundred of the'former and' eight hundred of the latter incarcerated when we arrived.

The Southern Uhionistsare mostly from East Tennessee, North Carolina and Northern Virginia. Included among them however, are citizens from all parts- of the South. Very many of them were formerly possessed of vast wealth and influence and one of the prisoners was but a short' time since one of the largest planters' of Texas. Another who had practiced.law in Jackson, thirty-five years was brought to Castle Thunder, with linen panto, worn out at tho knees, and with no other covering but an old striped shawl thrown over his shoulders.

The gunboat Essex is anchored abreast the town, and the place is garrisoned by the 1st Louisiana regiment. Col. Fisk. Here, nothing but a heap of ruins marks the location of a once beautiful and nourishing town.

15n.ton Kouge is a delightful little place, half forest and half town, with neat and beautiful streets. Probably there could not have been found a more fashionable, gay or aristocratic city in the South before the war than this but it is different now. Many of the handsome residences have been destroyed and now stand in ruins. Squares of building hare bren removed to give range to our guns, and the city now looks ragged and desolate the splendid groves of magnolia trees been cut down, and the magnificent gardens, once the piide of the inhabitants, are now nothing but uneven fields of grass nnd bushes. The Stati house, built at cost of over $700,000 the state, and situated on rising grounds in the moat delightful part of the city, now stands a crumbling niass of brick and marble.

The beautiful iron fence which surrounded it still remains uninjured, and the-trces and shrubbery have been but little hurt. One of the prettiest buildings, now to be seen standing, is the asylum of the deaf and dumb. It is a large and magnificent structure, and has thus far uninjured.

"In 1850 men's minds in Europe were disordered by the French revolution, and the marvellous success which seemed to wait upon adventurers. Louis Napoleon, who had lived for years in seclusion, crushed by the weight of ridicule which was the result of his failures at Strasburg and Boulogne, had already reached the foot of the Imperial throne, and, was preparing to mountit.

"It appeared, froni a perusal of Kaous- set's papers after his death, that although he pretended that he wished to carry out a national and democratic work, he intended to establish a throne for a prince of Orleans in Mexico.
