THE EVENING STAR. W. D. WALLACH, Editer and Pre>rieter, 2 WASHINGTON CITY: SATURDAY ...00¢.... JANUARY 14, 1865. B@ BEADING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE ERE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING THLE- GBAPHIO AND OTHER MATTER, THE CASE OF THE REBEL SENATOR FOOTE ‘We yesterday stated that Mrs. Henry S. Foote, wife ot the rebel Senator Foote, of Ten- nesses, had reached Alexandria from rebel- dom, and that her husband had been seized by the rebels. The first statement that reached here from Alexandria concerning the affair was to the effect that Mr. Foote was arrested in Rich Mond, but afterwards it was learned that ha was seized in the vicinity of Occoquan, while endeavoring to make his escape with his wife from the Confeaeracy. 7 It appears that Mr. and Mrs. Foote left Richmond several days ago, for the purpose of coming within our lines, and reached the Occoquan on Thursday, but were unable to cross. They tcok refuge im the house of a Mr, Hammell, near by, where they were shortly afterwards overhauled by a squad of rebel cavalry, and taken prisoners. The rebels hay- ing no means of conveyance for Mrs. Foote, she was paroled to remain in the house, and they started off with Mr. Foote towards Dum- fries, since which time Mrs. F. has heard nothing of her husband, and of course cannot state what disposition has been made of him. The tact of Mrs. Foote being at the residence of Mr. Hammell coming to the knowledge ot the military authorities at Alexandria, a de- tachment of Union cayairy was sent ont, a portion of which returned early yesterday morning bringing Mrs. Footeas a prisoner, the remainder going in pursuit of the rebels for | the purpose of overtaking them if possible and rescuing Senator Foote. - Secretary Seward happening to bein Alex- andria yesterday afternoon, at the request of Mrs. F accompanied her to this city and es- | corted her to Willards’ Hotel, where she still | remains, having engaged rooms, Mrz. Foote is yirtually a prisoner, although | not under military surveillance. Mr. Forrzst’s PLays.—We see with much gratification the prime minister, ‘* Richelieu,” announced at Ford’s Theater on Monday eve- ning. We congratulate the public upon being afforded another opportuaity of witnessing this masterly delineation of the most able secretary of state, and the most w.ly diplomat France ever had at the head of its state department. On Tuesday, Mr. Forrest will appear in his vivid and startling personation of + Othello,” the jealous Moor. — PERsoNAL.—We are glad to say that Mr. Frederick Seward, Assistant Secretary of | State, has again resumed the duties of his | office in the State Department, atter 2 long | confinement to his room, caused by a fracture of his right arm, received ina fall. Mr. Sew- ard’s arm is improving slowly, but as yethe | is unable to use it. Se DECLINED.—It is stated that Hon. Taeddeus Stevers, on account of broken health, declined to have his pame used by his friends in Con. @ress foran appointment as Secretary of the Treasury for Mr. Lincoln's second term. epee ie eee PROMOTIONS IN THE TREAStCRY DEPaRT- MENT — John A.

The Richmond Dispatch of Thursday has no news of any kind. It says it has assurances that Francis P. Blair is still in Grant’s lines. It contains a speech of Gov. Brown, of Ga., who has furloughed the State militia, to be ready to respond again at an hour's call to de- fend the State. MRS. LINCOLN’S RECEPTION, Mrs. Lincoln's first Saturday afternoon re- ception of the season, which took place to-day between the hours of one and three, was large- ly attended. Among the large number of jadies present representing the elite of the land ‘were the ladies of the members of the Cabinet, of the Foreign Ministers, and of Senators and Representatives. We noticed Mrs. Postmaster General Dennison, Miss Dennison, Miss Heintzelman, Mrs. General Casey, Mrs. Mc- Dougall, and many others. Mrs. Lincoln was very tastefully dressed in & purple brocade silk, richly trimméd with black velvet, a tasteful black lace shawl. white kid gleves, and & headdress of rich black lace trimmed with purple ribbon. The President was in attendance, and took part with Mrs. Lincoln in courteously recely- ing the guests. The Marine Band was present. GENERAL BUTLER’S SUCOUESSOR. Much speculation is indulged in concerning Gen. Butler’s successor, but as yet nothing definite is known on the subject. The im- pression prevails in military circles that the Army of the James will be detached from the Department of Virginia and Nerth Carolina, thereby necessitating the appointment of some good executive officer for the exclusive com- mand of the latter, and leaving the former free to act independently of department headquar- ters. The great interests involved in the goy- ernmentof Virginiaand North Carolina would seem to require all the attention of the com- mander, and it is considered should be discon- nected from the responsibilities of the officer directing operations in the field. INTERESTING INFORMAT FROM =~ BS OM RIOH: From a refugee from Richmond, (formerly a resident of this city,) who left the rebel lines lines near Dutch Gap on the 5th, we obtain some interesting informaticn from Richmond. Our informant states that he left Richmond onthe 3lst ot December, where he had been employed in the arsenal, and came through the lines near Dutch Gap, where Pickett’s di- vision of Longstreet’s corps are holding the works, which are very strong. This division, which is composed entirely of Virginia troops, is in rather a disorganized condition, and there is & great deal of dissatisfaction among the men. Some of them not unfrequently threaten to de- sert in the presence of their officers, and almost every night come come over to our lines, while others take the rear route and go back to their homes. The most of those deserting go home. The desertions are not by any means confined to the new recruits and conscripts, but are laxsgely from among the veterans—men who have been in the service from the beginning of the rebellion. The report that Lee has sent troops to meet Sherman in South Carolina is confirmed, but the knowledge of all military movements is so well kept that it is not known in the army what troops nor the number have gone, although it is now three weeks since they started. The upper classes among the people of Rich- mond profess to be confident of the ultimate success of the Confederacy, but the poorer classes, who have severely felt the effect of the depreciated currency, are heartily sick and tired of the war, and anxious for any mode of relief. Some idea of the suffering of the poorer classes can be formed when we state that our informant, for months past, has expended 1,000 per month in the bara necessaries of life for himselt and wife—flour being $700 per bar- rel, coffee $50 per pound, and sugar $14, and the pri were still advancing. Jeff. Davis seems to bea confirmed invalid, and the people have it that Lee is virtually at the head of affairs. The arsenal, which is situated near the Petersburg Depot, (an old tobacco warehouse, having been fitted up for the purpose,) is now under the command of Col. roy Brown, of Faaquier county, Va, assisted by Lientenant McHenry, formerly of Baltimore. The Super- intencent is James D. Brown, formerly of Mass. This building is fitte¢ up with ma- chinery, for the manufacture of shelf, cap and primers, and works from five to six hundred men, most of whom are detajled conscripts. Frank Sherry and Phil Davis, formerly of the Sixth Ward, of this city, and — Flaherty, of the Northern Liberties, are clerks in the la- baratory, which is under the superintendence of Wesley N. Smith, formerly of the Sixth Ward. onn Evans, formerly drummer in the Marine Barracks here, is keeper of the Magazine. George E. Kirk, is a clerk in the ordnance office.

That psper gives further par- ticulars of the Union movement in that city, and says in regard to the late meeting there, presided over by the Mayor of Savaunah, that the whole affair was a citizens’ meeting, and was controlled and arranged exctusively by them. It was & spontaneous and voluntary expression of public sentiment upon the con- dition of affairs, and net an officer or a private ‘wus admitted to the hall during the oveking. General Sherman continues to enforce the most rigid discipline over the troops in Savan- nah, to prevent any encroachment upon the rights of the citizens, and in consequence of the unsoldierly deportment of-some of she men at oue of the places of amusement, ali such places have been closed for the present.

SALARIES OF CLERKS 1X THR DEPARTMENTS. | ‘Fhe discussion of the consular bill in the Sen. ate yesterday clearly indicates the improba- bility of Congress increasing the salaries of apy empleyees of the government, No one | seems to question the inadequacy OF the sala- ries, but there is a great repugnance manifested generally t any increas of the national ex- penditures at the presenttime. The subject of additional pay has been constantly agitated in Congress since the first of the session by mem- orials and lobbyists, Heese petions being signed by some of our istinguishes geasralsin pebalfofeubordinate officers Great regret is expressed even among the most stren- uous opposers of increasing salariag, that the condition of the government's finances should so much stand in the way, and the apprecia- tion of the yustness of the claims of those in the civil and military service will, it is expected, lead to a discussion as protracted as any that has been considered this session. In themean- time, however, the prospect of the failure of this movement is giving birth to a feeling in the army very far from being promotive of ef- ficiency, and is driving from the departments the most experienced and yaluable clerks, whore vacancies cannot be properly filled at the present rates of salary. INDIAN AFFAIRS 1N CONGRESS.—The Chiv- ington massacre of Indians in Colorado has excited a sentimentin Congress which demands an immediate and rigid investigation of the treatment of this race throughout the far West. It is charged that the Indians are purposely yenturers, and thatmany white men connected with the overland routes, inthe confidence of the Government, have made it a practice to stir up broils and bring upon travelers the out- reges so frequently heard of, for the purpose of enabling 'hemselyes to make false returns of property lost, and to afford excuses for wil- ful non-fulfilment of contracts. The Com- mittee on Indian Affairs in the Senate is vig- orously prorecuting its examinations, and, itis expected, will recommend additional legisia- tion for the protection of the Indians from ont- rages and the Government against enormous swindles.

LOCAL NEWS. THE QvoTas.—Proyost Marshal General Fry, in reply to a communication from Gov- ernor Miller, of Mianesota, gives an explana- tion concerning the adjustment of the quotas under the call for 300,000 men ot general inter- est. It reaches us too late to-day for publica- tion in full, but we shall give it on Monday. In this communication Gen. Fry states that the object vf the present call is to raise 300,000 men, and they will be required from the dif- ferent localities in proportion to tha namber enrolled, and the number which such [ocalities prere dettoien’s QF in excess, under the call for 500,000. The quotas assigned under the call of Dacem- ber 19, 1861, for 300,000 men, are not to be re- duced except by actual enlistments since'the igth of December, 1864. The rule in applying credits ts, that they should be deducted from the quota of the call that produced them. + All men raised since the call of July 18, 1564, are credited upon the quots under this cali; if the quota is more than filled, it is carried as excess to the credit of the locality, and taken into account in the assignment of the quota under the call of December 19, 1564, and Provost Mar- shals are instructed, that in determining the quotas of sub-districts under the present call they will apply such excess aceordingly; and all men raised since December 15, are of course credited upon the call of that date: In crediting the excess that iz carried for- ward from the call of July 1S, 1864, and applied to the call of December 19, 1S61, not only the number of men of which tne excess is com- posed is considered, but also the period of their service; and the quotas assigned under the call of December 19th are thus reduced by this ex- cess of service, and hence they shouifnot be further reduced, except by enlistments subse- quent to December 19, 1864, the date of che call for 300,000 men. ge THE DRAFT IN THE LISTRICT.—Anothereup- plementary draft to fill deficiencies existing in the first and 12th sub-districts, under the Pres- ident’s call for 500,000 men, took place to-day at the office ef Major O’Bierne, Provost Ifar- shal, corner of 15th and I street.
