A lady's pass.--The Richmond Dispatch of March 30th publishes the copy of a pass given to a lady whose husband had to flee into Maryland to prevent being pressed into the rebel army. His wife, desiring to cross the river and get some money, received this pass:

Mrs. Mcfarlan--Pass. Promises forever to forsake her husband and never to return to him again, unless he crosses the Potomac, acknowledges his errors, and becomes a loyal subject to the Southern Confederacy.

O. W. Fosdick, Provost-Marshal.
