WASHINGTON, Sept. 2—8 P. mt. Major Gen. Diz, New York : This Department has received intelligence this evening that General Sherman’s advance entered Atlanta about noon to-day. The particulars have not yet been received, but telegraphic communication during the bight with Atlanta direct is expected. It is ascertained, with reasonable certainty, that the naval and other credits required by the act of Congress will amount to about 200,000, including New York, which has not yet been reported to the Department; so that the President’s call of Jnly 18 is practically reduced to three hundred thousand men to meet and take the place of— ist. The new enlistments in the navy. 2d. The casualties of battle, sickness, pris- oners, and desertion; and 3d. The hundred. day troops, and all others going out by expiration of service this fall. One hundred thousand new troops, prompt- ly furnished, is all that General Grant asks for the capture of Richmond, and to give a fin- ishing blow to the rebel armies yet in the field. The residue of the call would be adequate for garrisons in forts and cities, and to guard all the lines of communication and supplies, free the country from guerrillas, give security to trade, protect commerce and travel, and estab- we order, and tranquility m every ‘Evwin M. Stantoy, Secretary of War. [sECoND BULLETIN.] WASHINGTON, September 2, 1045 p,m. Major Gen.

IMPORTANT ARRANGEMENT RELATING TO PRISONERS OF WAR. We have authority for stating that an ar- rangement has been entered into between our own and the rebel government whereby the condition of our prisoners in rebel hands will be materially benefitted. Col. Ould, the rebel commissioner of exchange, submitted a prop- osition to our Government, agreeing to relieve’ all prisoners of war in their bands, in close confinement, and in cells and those in irons, and put them upon the footing of other prisoners of war, provided oor Government would do the same towards rebel prisoners similarly held by us. Our Government has accepted the proposition, and Col. Ould bas been notified of the fact. This will be good news to those in the North who have friends in close confinement in rebel dungeons. FROM THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. Genera) Meade on Leave of Absence—Gen. Park inCommand Temporarily. Information from the Army of the Potomac is to the effect that nothing has transpired for some days past. Picket firing is indulged on parts of the line at night, but almost entirely ceases during the day. Gen. Meade left the front on Thursday eve- ning, on & ten day’s leave. Gen. Park being beingat present the rankingofficer in the army ot the Potomac, assumes command on General Meade’s absence. A private named Chandler, of battery K, 4th United States artillery, is to be hung to- day for desertion. RELEASED. Some eight or ten of the rebel sympathizers arrested in Loudon and Fairfax counties a day or two ago were released from the Old Capitol this moroing upon giving their parole of honor to do nothing injurious to the United States Goyernment, aud not to furnish the enemy with any information relative to the move- ments of our troeps. Mr. A. Rodgers, a Virginia militia officer, who was arrested at the same time with those who were released, refused to give his parole on the ground that he could not conscientious- lv do 50, as he had a son in the rebelarmy, and if that son returned home on a visit, and should be pursued by our cavairy in case of their hearing of his return, he would be bound to inform him of their approach, which would be a violation of the parole. Rodgers was re- committed to the Old Capitol. REFUGEES LEAVING PETERSBURG. Six Irishmen, retugees from the South, ar- rived here this morning trom City Point,from whence they weresent by Gen. Patrick, hav- ing come into our lines from Richmond. Sev- eral of these men resided at Petersburg, but say they were compelled to leave there and to Richmond, owing to the fact that many of the residences in the former place have been near- ly demolished by the destructive fire poured in from our guns. Col. Ingraham released all of these refngees upon taking the oath of fidel- ity to the United States Government. INSPECTED, The clerks attached to the headquarters of the Military District of Washington, were in- spected yesterday by Maj. Pelouze, of the War Department. The duties of each clerk were in- quired into, and their books, papers, and desks were thoroughly examined. The inspection proved ‘o be & very satisfactory one.
