INTERNAL ReVENUE.—The receipts from this source to-day were $379,935. —The President ha: Rete MATION Acc ington, 29.h Infantry. THe INTERNAL REV*NVE RW BPTS continue to be much larger thga at the corresponding period of last year. COMMISSIONER LBLANO had a lonz inter. view with the President to-day. during which & number of importint revenue appointments Were arranged. Bakon Gerotp, Minister of the North German Union to this country, will return here shortly from Europe, where he has been for the past three months. ComMMOpORE M. SaITH this morning took charge of the Navy Department, and will dis. charge the duties of Secretary during the ab- sence of Secretary Robeson. GENERAL CaNy, commanaing the First Miltary District, (Virginia,) is in town, and had a long interview with the President this morning Concerning affairs in his District. Commanver J. G. WALKER. commanding U_S. steamer Sabine, reports to the Navy De- partment his arrival at Spitbead, England, on the 27th of July; all well on board. MAYOR Bow®y, who has been spen ing a few days at Cape May, is expected to arrive here this afternoon, and resume the duties of his office to-morrow. THE ARGUMENTS before the naval court- martial for the trial of Surgeon Green, of the steamer Nipsic, were canciuded yesterday. It is expected that the verdict will b? made pub- lic shortly.

Presipert GRANT will make a pleasure tour over the Erie railroad, leaving New York on Friday morning, the 13th instant. He will remain a few days at Corry and at Kane, Penn- sylvania. PRESIDENTIAL DINNBR TO THR CAUINET. The President will entertain the members of his Cabinet now in this city and the Acting Secretaries at dinner this afternoon at the Executive Mansion, and will leave here on the late train tor New York. WITHDRAWAL OF TaN-DOLLAR Notes — General Spinner has directed that all ten- aolisr notes coming into the Treasury be held: and that no more be issued. The design is to withdraw the entire issue from circulation and destroy it. to guard again- the corruptions of the newly-discovered dangerous coutterfeits of that denomination A. A. WYMAN, Assistant Cashier of the bark of (maha, bas accepted the position of Cashier of the United States Treasury under Geveral Spinner, aud will enter upon the dis- charge cf bis duties on the Ist of September vice S. E. Middleton, resigned. Mr. W) man formerly filled this office, and resignest the position to seek his fortune in the West. y AT THE CHARLESTON, S. Mr. Clarke, the new Collec. tor of Customs, at Charleston, S. ©., is making aclean sweep of Dr. Mackey’s appointments an the Custom House there, and a large num- ber of nominations were confirmed by Acting Secretary Kichardson yesterday. Jobu B Dennis has been appointed Deputy Collector of the Port GuwERAL CANBY has issued an order re- yok ing 8o much of an order issued by General Stcneman, whilst in command in Virginia, permitting certaim officers who could not take the test oath to hold offices to which they were elected. All persons holding office and who cannot tske the test oath are to be at once re- moved. General Uanby seems determined to enforce it in every instance, and the issuing of the order alluded to is regarded by some as an assurance that he will impose it upon the Leg- islature. CoxsoLipaTION OF Revexve Districts.— Permission has been granted to Assessor Belch- er, of the third Georgia Distric:, to consolidate several of the divisions of that district, on ac- count of the decrease of labor in that section of the country. There are at present fourteen divisions in the district, and by the consolida- tion the services of three or tour Assistant As- sessors will be dispensed with. This is the district, it will be recollected, of which so much complaint has been made of resistance to the authority of the Revenue offic Tue REVENUE MARINE SeRvice.—The board of examination of revenue marine service, composed of Captains McGowan, Faunce and Sheer, yesterday submitted a report to Acting Secretary Richardson against the purchase of the steamer Virgin, now lying at New York, for the revenue marine service. Messrs. Ra- ney, Sons and Archibald, of Chester, Pa., the lowest bidders for the constraction of the tour new vessels, are in (own. The modification of the plans as prepared by the board to bring the cost within the amount of the appropriation ‘was submitted to the acting Secretary yester- day. If the proposed changes are sppreved the contract will be awarded to that firm. The original bid was #34,(00 in excess of the appro- priation. THE SCARCITY OF FRACTIONAL CURRENCY is still the subyect of complaint trom all parts of the country. Treasurer Spinner yesterday received a letter from General Butterfield, the Assistant Treasurer at New York, stating that be, bad but $3,215 of all denominations at his digposal. The amount in the Treasury here yesterday was only 831.600. The bank note printing companies at New York are very mach behind in the work of supplying the De- partment with the printed sheets, aad as yet none of the twenty-five cent notes have been received. The old currency is received at the rate of $75,000 per day for redemption, and (as the original plates have been destroyed) the only recourse is through the bank note compa- nies having the printing. The amount of frac- tional currency actually in circulation is no; over $25,000. Something will have to be done to remedy such a state of things in the future. Tus Kansas Inpians.— Representative Clarke, of Kansas, bad a long interview with the Commissioner of Indian Affairs yesterday, in rel to Indian matters in the West, and particularly in Kansas and the Indian Tern- tory. He submitted tothe Uommissioner a full statement of bis recent conference with the Osage chiefs, and in view of the rapid settle- ment on their reserve by the whites, as we stated he would do, urged that the Depart- ‘ment proceed at once to ascertain the wishes of the Indians in regard to their removal South ‘and the sale of their present reserve to the Gov- ernment, to be opened to white settlers only. ‘He urged that this action be takes ia time to report at the next session of Congress, #0 that the necessary legislation can be had. Commis- sioner Parker stated that steps would be taken W fully investigate the case, to ascertain the ‘wishes of the Indians in reference to the re- moval, and that he would submit the whole matter to Congress at its next meeting. Tae Counr oy FavgRxime, acting Frenc Minister, lett Newport @ tew days sinc to hold sn interview with the Spanish Minister, Senor Roberts, now in New York. The inter- view was in relation to Caban affairs. ORDERED TO WasHInoron.—Lient. Com- manders Allen D. Brown, George H. Wadleigh, Lewis Clark and Charles S. Cotton, and Lieut- Jacob E. Noell have been ordered to Washing- ton, D. C., for special duty connected with sig- nals.

The party will be absent about one month. APPOINTMENTS,—The President to day made the following appointments—Joseph W. Pat- ton, to be Collector of Luternal Revenue for the 15th District of Pennsylvania, vice Wm. Penn Lloyd, resigned; Wm. B. White, to be Collector of Internal Revenue for the 6th Districtot New York, vice M. B. Field, suspended. This ap- pointment, it will be remembered, was ten- dered to Gen. Cochrane, but declined by him. THe WaITEe Hovss,—There was a large crowd of visitors at the Executive Mansion this moraing, maty of whom were admitted to see the President, among them Assistant Treasurer Felton, of San Francisco; Judge Martin and George Spencer, of Ala. A greater Portion of the day was occupied with coasulta- tions with the several members of the Uabiner, acting Secretaries, and Commissioner Delano, in arrangirg various routine matters pertain. ing to the Departments, THe CanIneT MERTING AND THE SPANISH Guynoats._The most important question under consideration by the Cabinet yesterday was the recent seizure of the Spanish gunboats by Marshal Barlow. Secre:ary Fish an. pounced that he had positive information that Inese gunboats were to b2 used by Spain against Peru. The sabjec: was fully dis- cussed, and it was flaally agreed that the boats should be held im the custody of the Autorney General until a thorough and impar- tial investigation of the whole subject should be made. In the meantime neutrality laws are to be strictly observed. Theaction of Mar- sbal Barlow was fully sustained by the Cab- inet. THE Mexican CLAIMS ComMISsION met here yesterday in the rooms formerly oceupied by the Columbian Commission, on H street. W. H. Wadsworth, the Commissioner on the part ot the United States, and Francisco Romez Peiacto, Commissioner on the Part of Mexico, were both present, with Caleb Cashing, Esq., seunsel for Mexico, and J. Hubley Ashton, 1, counsel for the United States, besides wo secretaries—one Mexican and one Ameri- cap. The only business transacted yesterday was the signing of the declaration, provided for in the treaty. vinding themselves to settle all claims equitably and without fear, favor or affection. They then proceeded to form rates And regulations for the government of the Commision, but had not completed the same atthe hour of adjournment. After perfecting the rules the Commission will adjoura for several days, to give claimants an opportanity of presenting their claims in accordance with the same.
