OF YESTERDAY.
Drummers in run Market. —Among the
many clashes of sharpers who infest the
Market, not the least offensive anil annoy
ing is that ot the Drummers. These fellows
hang about the Market, lying in wait for the
country people who come into the city with
produce. When these have disposed ot
their stocks and obtained the money, the
“ drumlHers ” fasten upon them and affiliate
with them by pretending to be countrymen
also, although they ready belong in the city.
They thcu show the cards of the business
houses by whom they are employed, and
dragging away their v'ctims, make way with
then money before the ignorant and misin
formed countrymen have a chance to learn
the real price of commodities. This game
of extortion and pillage is the more easily
played, as the people of the interior have
lately been dealifig only with confederate
prices. What is realiy an cxhorlitant and
illegitimate price for meiehandi.se in green
backs. app a: sto them, accustomed they
are to the inflated Rebel currency, astonish
ingly low; and beiore they have the oppor
tunity to dispel their illusion their money is
gone. It would be a matter of human.tv
amt just.co to'the county people, and of
protection to merchants who desire to do
business in a ftspi-ctabie and legitimate
maimer, t have the Market cleared ot tin sj
runners or “d:untan r .”

Grant says : “We are n >\v having tin weath

ters about Richmond soon. lam anxious to
have Lee hold oi where he is a short time
longer, s »that I can gut. him int > a position
where he must lose a great portion of his
army. The rebellion has lost its vi ulity, and
if lam rot mistaken, there will be no rebel
army of any great dimensions a few weeks
hence. Any great catastrophe to auv of our

for a short time, but I expect no such thing
to iWjpeu."

I war effected intothe store of Messrs. Miller,

ger through the back door. A considerable
quantity of property was taken.
1 Hearing of the robbery, Mr. Levy, the act
ing marshal of Hamburg, arrested a negro
man on suspicion. The fellow, finding him
self in close quarters, thought that it would
be best to make a clean breast of it. He ac
cordingly confessed to the crime, and impli
cated another negro who was associated in
the burglarious enterprise.
Yesterday tbc Court was engaged in an
examination of the case, and the negroes
were adjudged to receive five hundred lashes
each, and be imprisoned thirty days.
Monthly Sale Jhy. — As usual, Broad street
presented yesterday an exceedingly lively
appeal auce-in the vicinity of the lower mar
ket. Crowds of buyers" and sellers were
busily engaged exchanging all sorts of com
modities, and the auctioneers’ voices rang
l aid and clear above the din and tumult of
tee busy mart.
Prices were very well sustained in most
articles, but there was not so great an ad
vance as had been anticipated.
Gold. —The government depository in this
city, after a sale of twenty-five thousand
dollars in gold, on Monday at sxty, quitted
tae market,aud yest relay the price advanced
to seventy for one.
On bit. —Miss Boozer and her mamma, who
ieit Columbia with toe Yankees, are imported
to have returned. They left in apusetou
and came back in sn ox cart. It is further
reported that the Y’ankce officer whom the
damsel married is not a bachelor. We
give thK rumor on the strength of common
gossip.
General Henry A. Wise is announced in
the Enquirer, a candidate to fill the va
cancy occasioned by the resignation of Hon
it. W. Whitfield, of the 3d Congressional
District of Virginia.
_ Mr. Alexander, the great stock dealer of
Kentucky, has been compelled to remove all
his fine stock from that State in consequence
of the depredations of guerrillas.
A member of the Legis <tture was heard to
say, that a certain contractor under the State
' r Con edcrate Government had bought twice
<is much of a certain article as his contract
contemplated. He was asked what he would
do with this surplus. "Speculate on it," was
the answer. Yet that man subscribed an
oath, wo are told, to the effect that he would
not use the position lie holds. llow many
souls will this war send to ?

A letter from the chief commissary.
Office Chief Commissary,)
Augusta, Ga , April 3, 18G5. )
Editor Constitutionalist :
I haying been applied to for permits to al
low shipments of tamily supplies on the rail
roads leading to this point, these permits I
have refused tor the simple leasoa tiiat 1
have no power to permit a tiling over which
I have no particle of authority ; to grant the
permit would imply a right to prohibit. I
know of no law which gives the Chief Com
missary or uny of his subordinate officers
any right to control die railroad transporta
tion utyess private freight is being carried
in preference to Government freight, and
then it is a question to be settled with rail
load officers, and not with private citizens
The only right which I have not common to
every citizens is to impress when I cannot
purchase at market rates the supplies nec
(sy.ry for the . army, and from this power
“family supplies" are. expressly excused.
It is my desire that officers under me shall
exercise the powers granted by Jaw to eu
i do them to feed the army, aud at the same
tune carefully to avoid any interference with
the rights ot the citizens not essentially ne
cessary to the discharge of their duties, and
dearly delegated to them by the laws of the
laud. \\ hiio 1 shall endeavor to avoid im
pressment whenever it eau be avoided it is
proper that I should state to the people of
: Georgia that there is at this time.a distress
j ing pussure upon our armies for the food
i necessary 10 au-tuffi life, and I earnestly ap
| peal to all good citizens to bring forward
their surplus and sell it to the Commissaries
throughout the State. Tnese supplies will
be paid lor in certificates of indebtedness re
ceived tor taxes. This is all that we have to
pay with. Without food an organized army
cannot be kept together—without an organiz
ed army our country must be overrun by the
[ enemy and plundered by guerrillas. To avoid
i self-interest ignoring patriotism ah
j together ought to induce the people to feed
; .in army sacrificing so much for the mainten
j ance ol public liberty. My officers are iu
slructed to collect supplies as rapidly as pos
s'-ble, that 1 may have them forwarded to the
j armies of Tennessee und North Virginia.
; oiiould any part of the people fail to sell
their surplus voluntarily, impressments will
! Have to be made. I make no appeal beyond
j a plain statement of the facts, which to all
| gu*4 citizens arc eloquent enough. Would
| that hey w iu kt s s >.
