The Intelligencer argues that the President, in the promulgation of the new order in reference to the * selzing and using’ as much of negro prop- erty ‘fas may be cenventent’’ for military pur. peses, Was actuticd by the purest and mort patri- etic motives, and did what he fully believed to be constitutiona! and right tn the premises. The Intelligencer censures that portion of the Presa and those individuals who can see no good a proper, conservative view of things, but de- v're to bave all things In reference to slavery Pushed to a radical extreme The Kepedlicen is occupied with news details to-day. 5 eee inerent at THs Executive Mansion.—Some five persons were waiting in the hall of xecutive Mansion yesterday to see the Pres- ton busness. Une man, who bad been ad- mitted to an audience, remained half an hour or more. After be retired, the President came to bis office door, and, giuneing bis eye quickly sronad, sald —“1 want to make a iittle speech all want to see me on business; it is a matier io Importance to me whether | spend my time helf 2 dozen or with the whole of you, but 8 Of importance to vos =‘Therefore, when you ome fn, pleate don't stay long.’ ‘The President bowed aud retired amid the good humor of his Budte ad subdued cries of ‘ good, good.’* It weuld be weil if visttors would take a hint from this lacident. + Don’t stay too long.” A CavtTion —It Is stated that the $400,000 ef United States bonds which formed a part ef the echcol fund of Texas, and were depos- fed fm the Treveury of that State, were not nce withdrawn and sent abroad to be soid- vernment, we belleve, has claimed that 2 and olLer property of the United States, s zed by Texas when she joined tie rebellion, wotll De regarded sa 2 eet-off aga'nst tuose bonds, cod aa therefoce the United States will not pay ‘oem, foreign purchasers should be put on their 4uerd, iees they inuocently buy paper which has ast tt vaine.

The order brought the soiforms and equipments to the court house by eart-loads. —— Unvourpsp Rumors.—We have the best au- * thority for saying that there is no foundation for the rumors and statements about divisions in the Cabinet and the retirement of the Secretary of fate.

Mr. Baker, however, wasat his country seat in the county, and one of bis partners, Mr. Joseph Rogers, Jr., assured the geiitleman that Mr. Baker would call upon the General at four e’clock in the afternoon at the Kutaw House.

THE POSTAGE STAMP CURRENCY. We fear that between the Treasury and Post Office Departments the law making postage atemps currency for small change will not be put into operation as soon as was contemplated—by the Ist of August, proximo. The quasi conflict of Juriediction over their issue betweem thetwo De- partments had not been positively séttled up to last evening, and until taus disposed of, we ap- prebend that no considerable steps to expedite their appearance in the business transactionsof the people can be taken.

Ba eves A nn NAVY YARD. ARRIVAL OF THE FAESBORN—TROUBLES OF UNION MEN IN VIRGINIA. The Freeborg, Capt. McCrea, arrived from the Rappahannock last night, bringing up the prize schooner Sabine, taken some days ago. The tnhabitants south of the Rappahanneck, especially those in Mathews county, many of whom not long since deserted the rebel cause, latd down their arms and took the oath of alle- giance, are represented to be in great consterna- tion on account of the appearance, at times, of parties of rebel cavalry, who seize such of them as they can and preas them again into the ser- vice. Many of them at night come out in the P.ankatank and sleep in their boats, fearing the roving bands whicb !afest the neighborhood. Once or twice recently a company of Federal cavalry bas scoured the country in search of the marauders, but without success; and, immedi- ately on their departure, the rebels again make their appearance A lot of muskets, with which the deserters were armed, were brought upon the Freeborn, allof which are flint locks, and some bear the stamp on the locks, ‘ Virginia Manufactory, Richmond, 1516.” The Mount Washington left for Fortress Mon- toe yesterday afternoon. premiere NINE AND TWELVE YONTHS VOLUN- TEERS. On our outside will be found a telegraphic dis- patch from Harrisburg, tothe effect that the War Department will accept nine and twelve months volunteers if offered by the Governor. A few dayssince the mustering officer at Harrisburg was directed by telegraph, from the same (Ad- jutant General’s) office here, not to master inanuch volunteers as he is now ordered to receive an pet telegram published above. Thus, the truth is, when we pubilshed the fact that the Government declined receiving nine and twelve months vol- unteers, we simply published what was then literally true. — ee A CAPITAL ORDER. Headquarters Mulviary Distruct of Washington, Wast!igtun, D.C., July 24, 1662, } General Order No. 5.—Hereafter, all convales- cent soldiers found at any drinking, concert, or gambling saloon, or house of ill-fame in Wash- ington or Georgetown, with or without a pass, before or after tattoo, will be considered fit for duty.

This forenoon the Secretary of the Treasury re- ceived a telegram announcing the safe arrival in San Francisco of a million dollars in U. 8. Treas- ary notes sent thither leas than « month since. They are the first lot of Treasury notes sent by tne Government to California, and thelr arrival there bas of course created quite a sensation, > GENERAL BULLERFIELD.

The white troops who have accompa- nied from Kansas an equal number of indian ref- ugees have already made a impression in the Cherokee country, and with the addition of 1,500 Iodians under John Ross, further important results are anticipated. numbers of Indians have asked to be furnis! ‘with arms to operate against the secessiontsts in the various tribes.

This brought the train toa halt, when a citizen of the neighborhood came up and informed the con- ductor that a Yankee force bad made its appear- ance at the station, about a quarter of a mile be- yond, and were engaged in tearing up the rail- road track. On the recetpt of this intelli the train put back with all possible spend, and arrived here about 2 o’clock p.m. also — the Yankees bad fred the depot at eaver Br aa on comparatively smail force, as they are not known to be in any considerable numbers in that local- ity, The impression obtains that the party com- mitting these depredations consisted of cavalry scouts from Crroline er Spotsylvania counties, and thet the raid was perpetrated with the hope of our forces be- cutting off comrhunication wit fweninis city and the Rapidan. From a gentleman who left Beaver Dam on Saturday evening, we have ascertained some ssess Interest in connection with the Yankee iy w the Central Railroad. A ang German has for some time permitted pas between that point and Fredericksburg keeping up a traffic In articles which he supposed would readily purchased by the inhabitants. Only two or three days ago, he made his appear- ance at Beaver Dam Station, in company with two ladies from Fredericksburg, who had re- celved passports from the Federal commander at that place, and were on their way to Rishmond to visit some relations. The German also breages With him a sack of and salt & quantity of y Which found a ; but he refused to receive confeder: pay it; nothing but gold would sat- isfy him. ‘his circumstance excited seme sus- Picion, but he was allowed to de unmolest- ed. While at Beaver Dam he ample oppor- tunities to make observations and to acquaint bimself ey with the @iiuation of affsirs in the vicinity; very my after his return ‘we hear of this Yankee raid, w! ich was under: taken with a perfect knowledge that it might be done without any great danger. That the enemy received their information from this German Peddler there js little doubt. Facts like this ros ial to incite our authorities to increased vigi- nCe. Besides obstructing the railroad, the Yankees cut the telegraph wire, and we are thus unabie to get positive information concerning the state of affairs at Beaver Dam station. it is beileved, however, that the depot was destr, by the Yankees, who retreated towards that point on the @pproach of the train, and a dense volume of smoke was soon afterwards seen in the same di- rection.
