United States south of Mason and Dixon’s tine. ; It is but justice, however, to General Halleck to say. that he has rever been conatilted, nor expressed an opin- ion, either one way or the other, in regard to any of these measures, and that he studiously avoids intermeddiing in any manner with the acts or policy of the government, except in regard to matters military, over whicli he claims and vigorously attempts to exercise exclusive Jurisdiction, though not always able, pei haps, to prevent ‘some intermeddiing on the part of the civil authorities. Genera! Halleck’s opinions are known in regard to points of civil administration so well that he is never consulted by the government when “manifestations of vigor,” to take effect north of Mason and Dixon’s line, are in oon- templation. The Genoral is perfectly silent on all such matters, even to his most intimate friends, closely occu. ‘pying all his time, from early mérning until far into’ the night, with the affairs of the army, doubtless seeking by this abstinence from meddling with other departments to insist on @ reciprocity of nan-interforence in military affairs by Mr. Lincoln and the Cabinet, What his views are, therefore,can only be negatively judged; but: men aro seldom so cautiously negative “as to operations which they approve. For tho rest, there i@ the best reason for believing that the condition of the military aspect of the country is rapidly assuming satisfactory shape. The forces previously scattered over vast extonts of country during the non. military administration of war matters are now being concentrated into effective armies én the strategie points north, west and southwest; aud in a very fow days, or weeks at farthest, it is confidently predicted that the rebe's will be driven out of, or compelied to abandon, al’ the advanced positions they have lately assumed within Kentucky, Tennesseo und the Southwestern tier of States.

A MILITARY GOVERNOR FOR FLORIDA—A PLAN, FOR REGENERATING THE SOUTH. It is understood that Hon.
