Tus Drart—I/mportant Opinion by the Attor- mey General._The Attorney General has given an opinion upon the fourteenth section of the enrolling act, in answer to certain question: propounded to him by the Secretary of Ws respecting the actual residence of persons lia- ble te the draft. Mr. Speed remarks that all persons must be presumed to have an actual Tesidence somewhere, and moreover, that that actual residence must be the place of his ori-" gin, until he shall, from choice or removal ac- quire another. Minors have their actual res- idence with their parents or guardians, and apprentices with their masters. The conclu- sion, in substance, is, that where a man habi- tually sleeps amd passes his nights in his ac- tual residence, and not his place of business.

The staterooms were all engaged several days ago, and it was found necessary to arrange temporary berths in the cabin by means of curtains. Among the passengers ‘were many ladies. The expense of the trip ‘was eighteen thousand dollars, or one hundred dollars a passenger. 7 From Angust Sth to Feb. 22d we wrested trom the rebels 1,301 lignt and heavy guns. Add to this number 600 captured by Sherman and Grant in their late movements, and we have 1,9 cannon secured from the Rebels in eight months’ time, or seven hundred more than are required to meet the demands of our own forces during a year’s time.

In order to puta stop to the absurd canard afloat in regard to the “proposition of the President” to recognize the rebel legislature of Virginia, we are enabled to state that early om yesterday, the President telegraphed to Gov- ernor Pierpoint tocome at once to Washing- ton, where a long conference was held between them, the obiert o¢ which was to perfect the plan for the restoration of Governor Pierpoint’s Government at Richmond. OVATION TO PRESIDENT LINOOLN, By what we can hear of the popular feeling, ‘we judge that the visit to the White House to. night by the people will partake very much of the character of an ovation to the President from the numbers and visible enthusiasm of those preparing to be in attendance. The grand traits of Mr. Lincoln's character, his magnanimity, patience, firmness, sagacity and humanity, developed so conspicuously through the trying ordeal of the times, haye won for him an amount of persdnal regard in this community that is apt to develop itself upon any and every opportunity, and which will have an exceedingly appropriate one to- night. The visit tothe White House will probably take place about $ o’clock. THE RESULT OF IT The President’s proclamation declaring the Southern ports closed is regarded by those ac- quainted with our foreign relations as as- suring the revocation by Great Britain of her recognition of the belligerent rights of the Southern Confederacy. It appears from Lerd John Russel’s recent speech, and from other sources, that the British Government have vindicated their concession of belligerent rights by our proclamation of the blockade, asserting that as we had thus recognized the Confederacy as belligerents they were justified in doing so. SKIRMISH WITH GUERRILLAS, On Friday last portions Mosby’s and White’s guerrillas had a fight with the Independent Loudon Cavalry, under Lieut.Gover, between Lovetsville and Harper’s Ferry, in which the guerrillas being in preponderating num- bers, Lieut. Gover was wounded and the most of his company made prisoners. The business of theguerrillas has now played out, as having, since the surrender of Lee, no cover of military organization, they will be looked upon simply as highwaymen and assas- sins, to be hung on the nearest tree when canght. JOHNSON. s The city has been full of reports to-day that news had been received of the surrender of Johnson’s army, but up to the time of going to press we cannot learn that there is any founda- tion in the report, and presume that thecapitu- lation of Johnsonginevitably due, has been dis- counted somewhat in advance. THE SECRETARY OF STATE. Secretary Seward did not rest so well last night, owing to the excitement and noise exist- ing in the eity yesterday occasioned by the rejoicing over the surrender of Lee’s army to the Union forces. He is better this morning, however, and is slowly improving. wa-The agent for the Associated’ Press pays us the compliment of using very liberally from our news columns, but inadvertently—we have no doubt—negiects to give us credit. SaLEes OF 7-30'8.—The sales of 7-30's by Jay Cooke & Co., amounted to $3,519,350 yesterday, eee Virginia te Come Back inte the Unien. An effort has been inaugurated during the last twenty-four hours to start some new cr- ganizations to bring Virginia back into the Union. When Mr. Lincoln was here he had an interview with Judge Campbell, ex-Peace Commissioner, to whom Mr. Lincoln gave upon a slip of paper ® memorandum, not affixing his signature, that he would grant permission for “Extra Billy” Smith, and other Officials, to return to Richmond, and to take steps to restore Virginia to the Union. ‘0-day there was acauwcus of a number of secesh to consider upon what terms they could mage a treaty with the Yankees. It was held ¥ the Whig office, and was attended by Mar- all, of Fauquier, and Garrison, of Accomac, of the Virginia State Senate, and,Messrs. Eng- lish, Hall, Ambrose, Burr and Scott, of the House of Delegates, and Walker, Burr and Saunders, of the City Council, and Mayo, the Mayor, and a number of other secesh citizens and office holders. Brigadier General J. R. Anderson, C.S. A., ‘was unanimously chosen Chairman. Judge Campbell made a short speech, saying that he ‘was assured by Mr. Lincoln that he would make very liberal terms with them, and he thought now was their time. He proposed a commission of four be appointed, who were to visit Generals Lee and Grant, and procure an armistice, and have a Qonvention held at Oharlottesville, in Albemarle county, that to be deciared neutral ground by both armies pending the consultation. An adjournment was held over to Saturday. —Richmond Correspondence Philadelphia In- quirer, April 9. TaE CATTLE MARKET.—The uncertainty re- specting the transportation of cattle from the West, having prevented many Western drovers trom shipping cattle to the Eastern markets, there is but a very slim supply, of cattle, with high prices at Albany, while in this city but 2,066 were yarded, and as this week is the ‘week before Easter, there was & fair demand. Prices of all classes of beef cattle advanced fully a cent over the price last week. Busi- ness, however, was by no means active, and drovers generally complained of the dullness of the market. Sheep are dearer.—N. Y. Ex- press, April 10th. MARYLAND REBEL REGIMENT.—It is re- ported that nearly all of the Maryland regi- ment of infantry attached to the late A. P.

The regiment it is known fought very desper- ately in the battle of Gettysburg, losing heay- ily, and with its service since had become very much reduced in numbers. But few of them Were injured in the late action.— Balt. Sun. i7"The screw steamship -China accom- plished her last voyage trom New York to Queentown in 8 days, 14 hours and3 minutes.

On the afternoon of the day when the occurrence took place, Finnegan went to the honse with a man named Samuel McManus, and Finnegan ac- cused McUabe with having falsely charged him with being Srminally: intimate, when some words ensued, but afterwards they be- came very friendly, and all went out and took adrink.

THE REJOICING.—-Notwithstanding there ‘was no general illumination on account of the surrender, some private residences were illu- minated last night and at some of the hospitals some pretty little jollifications took place. At Carver Hospital every window was prettily set off; the band was stationed in front of head- oe and speeches were delivered by Dr. errill and the Chaplain Atthe headquarters of Soldiers’ Rest, near the depot, the place was beautifully set off, over the door the names of Grant, Sherman and Sheridan appearing, with the word Victory, while the windows were brilliantly illumi- nated, and on the flag staff there was a string of red white and blue lanterns, the whole ar- rangement having a very pleasing aspect. ———— CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY.—Last night a woman named Josephine Miller was arrested by roundsman Franklin and taker to the Second Ward station.

This morning the facts were stated te Justice Miller, who denied the authority ot Justice Boswell to release any one from the station house.

Maggie Smith went to the colored woman’s house and took them. Upon this the charge is based. Maggie Smith puts in the plea that Emma Woodworth gave her the privilege of using the articles until she recovered.

The artil- lery so sheok the houses upon the water side that some of them will require glazing; the occupants of others sayed their glass by hoist- ing the windows. FIRE.—About 10.20 o’clock last night, tha stable owned by James Robertson, on Market, petgpen.
