Intelligence from the Southern States repre- sents that General Howard's tour of inspection, under orders from the President, has thus far | been of the grentest beneficial results. Me has corrected many errors that worked disadvan- tageously to the barmonions operation of the Freedmen’s Burean, and his visits to Atlanta, Macon, and other points, thongh brief, are spoken of as baving been exceedingly valu- able. NAVAL CANNON. During the war, a large number of old naval cannon accumulated at the various navy yards througbout the United States, which the Secre- tary of the Navy now proposes to dispose of. On the Ist of December, 195 will be offered at ublic antion in Philadelphia, and will be sold ty the pound to the highest bidder. DETECTIVE FORCE. To-day all of the men of Major Russell's mil- itary detective force were relieved from duty. ‘These men all belonged to the Veteran Reserve Corps, which is soon to be mustered out, but as the necessity for t) force has almost entirely ceased it is very likely that another will not be organized.

PERsoNAL.—John Mitchell has gone to France. -+--Montgomery Blair writes to the Baltimore American denying that he intended to casi any imputation upon the members of the Legisiature which passed the Registration law. S7 here are hourly evidences. says the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, that the President's faith in the South is being shaken. Toe dilatoriousness of the Legislatures now in se: n in passing the acts recommended by him as “indispensable” to the restoration of the States, coupled with the arti- cle in the Mobile Register, declaring, in effect, that there must be a “limit to the Northern de- mands on the South,” has given hima apprehen- sions of danger ahead, and in future there will be no change in the control lately exercised by the General Government over those States. In other words, the civil Governments will not be permitted to assume the exercise of their functions until the requirements of the Presi- dent are fully and squarely met.

Were it not for the relief from daily annoyances, afforded by the Cabinet meetings on Tuesdays and Fridays, no physical constitution, however strong, could endure the exbausting labor performed by the President of the United States. There is no office of the Government so burdened with responsibility ‘nd anxiety, and no man living required to listen to such an endless recital of Plivate griefs, as unsophisticated visitors pour into the President's ear at eyery public interview. President Johnson has few equals in industry. He rises at six, and until breakfast, which is served at half. past seven, looks over the newspapers. Im- mediately after breakfast he goes to the Execu- tive apartments and commences the labor of the day. Furst there are bundles of letters to be read and the replies dictated to the secretaries Applications for appointments, promotions, discharges from the army and nayy, political advice, petitions for Executive clemency and innumerable other subjects are disposed of, but before half completed the visitors haye commenced to flock into the ante-rooms and thrust their cards upon him. Pardon seekers swarm on every hand. Former owners of con- fiscated property pace up and down before the door ot the President's room, and females with indescribable effrontery insist upon immediate admittance. After the most important business of the morning has been disposed of the visitors are admitted one by one, and the President sub- mits himself to the artesian process. This lasts till about half-past one or two, sometimes three o’clock, when the doors of his apartment are opened, and the whole crowd admitted. At such times, Col. Johnson, son of the President, or Col. Browning, the Private Secretary, stands near the President, and takes memoranda as dictated by him on the cases of the visitors who succeed one another with subjects for Executive action, like the dense throng at the post office window. The Presi- dent's manner at such times is always pleas- ant, and gives confidence to the most timid His decisions are quick, and each individual who lays his case befure the President learns in halt a dozen courteous words the final de- cision, When all have been listened to, and the halls are once more empty, the President turns again to papers on his table, until four o'clock, the hour for dinner. After dining he returns to his office, and there generally re- mains until a late hour, seldom retiring before li o'clock. 1n addition to all these duties it must be re- membered that there are distinguished visitors constantly presenting themselves. Represen- tatives ot Foreign Courts, Governors, Senators. Generals, and hundreds of lesser magnitude must be received, each having some important subjectrequiring care and deliberation, while over all towers the greatand ever present prob- lem of reconstruction. Cabinet daysand the Sabbath afford three days of rest from the pet- ty and exhausting annoyances that beset the President, but at no time is he free from the op- pressive weight of national difficulties which now, more than ever before, obscure the future BELIEVED.

NEw YorEK, Nov. 14.—The Times says:—“We have from apparently trustworthy authority a rather startling rumor of trouble of a serious character on the Canadian frontier. 1t appears that a British officer took the liberty of leading & company of marines across the line into Maine, to arrest deserters, and that his men themselves, finding they were on foreign soil, deserted him; that application was made to our authorities to have the men given ap, which was refused. Report adds that the Washington Government on being apprised of the case immediately ordered Hancock's corps, ora portion of them, to rendezvous in Maine, Such ts the story, and this much 1s certain, that a body of troops left Hartford at midnight on Sunday night for Augusta, Maine. to ae Great Fire in Maine.

Not only was the spacious church crowded, but also the approaches to it; and as usual, on these interesting occasions, there was vivid expectation on every face—especially of the young®ladies—and an immense flutter whene movement occurred indicating ‘the arrival of the wedding party. * At half-past 12 the p&rty arrived—the bride and groom, the four brides-; ids, and the four ‘oomsmen; jing a cloud of white lace, on the " side, duly set off by the more sombre colors of the gentie- men. he: beidee-maide ‘were Miss mn Hoft of Baltimore, Miss Keller of New York, Miss Cox and Miss McIntyre of Washington.
