The Intelligencer treats upon “The Scope of the Emancipation Edict,” and defen's P: dent Lirevin from charges of inconsiste! preferred by the New York Tribune and kin- dred papers, professing to be in the interest of the Administration. The Intelligencer argues that the proclamation of Janutry Ist fully forms to that of September 224, as interpr. @nd explained by the President in his let a Mr. Greeley. What tho President believei would best conrerve the interests of the Union cavre be did. Viz: by emancipatinz » slaves, and leaving others as they were before tue rebellion. The Chrmicle advocates the extension ef in- terior navigation, and pitches into the Demo- eratic party and what it calls the «Radical Conseryatives,” generally. —_—_- 2c -___ Tos Wasniscton Poet Orrice Latter List—On to-morrow the Star will re-cem- merce the weekly publication of the list of iet- tors remaining over in the Washington city Post Office, which the pressure on its columns induced us to decline at the commencement of the year 1662. Remonstrances of a large clos; of our subscribers and readers against the in- @ nvenience to them of its non-publication in the Stor, as for muy years, induced us some wieks ago to notify the Postmaster of Wash- inton that we should again apply for them at the beginning of the year, as the rizht of the & ar, by virtue of ite greatest circulation with no Ske delivery of the office. The postmaster duly m tf dour cotemporarire of the fact, and ail ef them declined to compete with the Star for their publication. SF The democrats of the West ewe it to: themselves to express their ntt-r detestation ef the undisguised secession utterances of such papers as the Cincineati Enquirer and Chicago Times. The country is heartily sick of abolition radicalism, but is by mo means prepared to stamd any secession nonsense from the other extreme. “ATH.—Fredenck Smith, convicted at Hzgerstowr, Md., of the willful murder of Miss Agnes Tracy, has been sentenced by Judge Weisel to be hung on euch day as the Governor shall designate. The prisoner was deeply effected and shed tears freely when his doom was prononnerd. Roche and Capt. Weigel, of Gem. Shriver’s staff, got into an altercation yesterday at the Monument House, Baltimore, and the latter shot the former. Capt. W. was arrested, and the affair is being ta vestigated. SarwrcastseRrs.—The corporation of Hagers- town, Md., bas resolved to issue shinplasters, tm defiance of the State law Prohibiting their circulation. S7 Hon. J. P.

Quinn, resigned. | S7 Major Slemmer, who was dangeroasly | sional District Wounded at Murfreesboro’, is the same officur + that defended Fort Pickens. SZ The Rice abduction case is again before the courts of Boston. SF Prignoli, the tenor singer, has “eome- bing the matter with his throat” again. Frvayctat—New York papers of yesterday evening say -—The stock market is tremulously excited, and all descriptions of #-curities are in demand at almost any price. The issues of all border State securities are bid for at advancing rats. Missooris, on which no interest has bern paid for two years, are quoted t67 067%; Ten- Beesees are Ginéiy, and Virginius 63% bid.

Mulligan had driven Imboden about a | mile out ot Moorefield, with some loss te the latter.— Wheeling Preas, Jan. ¢, Ratp txto Baksoug Countr.—We have in- t Higence that a raid was made om Sunday mi-bt on the sheriff of Barbour county, by a session purty. That they carried off the sheriff, pon one of his four captured horses; robbed Lis store, and Inft word that this was but a beginning of their answer to the Presi- @vnt'’s proclamation.
