The Dabney Artillery. --We are requested to return the thanks of Capt. Dabney, his officers and men, to Mrs. Capt Childress and Mrs. Chafin, for various courtesies received while on a tour of duty down the river.Their kindness presented a pleasing contrast to the conduct of some individuals, who charged them $1.50 per pound for butter, 45 cents per dozen for eggs, and other articles of food in proportion.We should not omit to say that this company has been presented, by Richard Allen, Esq., with a beautiful flag, which the members of the corps will take care not to disgrace.There is a time coming when the soldiers, as well as the community generally, will "mark and distinguish" the extortioners, but will remember with proud pleasure those whose patriotism has found an outlet in acts of liberality and kindness.

used by E. F. Baker & Co. in moulding and boring shell for the Government, was also entirely destroyed, together with a large assortment of valuable machinery, tools, materials, &c., for carrying on the business.This building belonged to Mr. Richard Allen, and as there was no insurance on it his loss will be quite heavy. The back part of the "Alabama or 290 Saloon," kept by Mr. Jas. McGehee, was damaged by fire and water to the extent of about five or six hundred dollars. This gentleman
s assortment of mantels and paintings which were destroyed, will not be less than from $75,000 to $100,000. Baker & Co. estimate their loss at about $15,000; Mr. Woodward's will reach (in loss of tools, materials, &c.,) from $10,000 to $12,000; Mr. Allen (on building) about $15,000, and Mr. Alluise (on confectionaries &c.,) about $3000.
