There is but little money there, and thoee able to leave are fleeing the coun- try to escape starving.

AFFAIRS AT ANNAPOLIS. Commissary Wade, of the Sixth regiment, N. Y. 8. M., arrived here yesterday’morning from Annapolis, in the steam transport Marion. He represents matters thore as being very quiet. The Sixth regiment, of New York, and the Thirteenth, of Brooklyn, were at Aunapolis when he left, the Sixth being on port duty, The Sixty- ninth (Irish) regiment had left the day before for Washington, and they must be safely quartered thero by this time. ‘The danger that has up to thie time threatened the city of Annapolis and the troops therein has been greatly Jeasened by the seizure of the two forts on the othor side of the river, whose guns command the city. A force of men was sent over to take thom; but when they got to the place they discovered, to their great surprise, that they were empty. A number of the men took jon at once, and now the federal troops Etve control of the city of "Annapolis and seve- ral points guarding the samo. The men have named the seized Madison and Nonsepse.

Tho soldiers stationed at Annapolis were in spirits, but there was a little grumbling at the quality of their rations, the men not being satisfied with the food pre pared for them. This will be remedied in a few days. ‘The communications to the men are few and far between, many having not heard from their friends in New York since they left. Dr. W. J. Wentworth, si geon of the Sixth regiment, urges upon the ladies of the State, county and city of New York to finish the muslin or linen for bandsges for the wounded or injured, as it is necessary to have a supply of these articles. We have no doubt that the patriotic ladies of our vicinity will not be backward in supplying their wants. Axxarous, April 20, 1361. The steamer Monticello and a gunboat arrived to-day from New York.
