Stace tleak at the Fifth Av: ie Hotel j Iiiness of Mra. Butlez, d&c. Major General Butler having intimated that he would recelye those frionds who wished to see him, the Fifth Avenue Hotel—where the General and his staff aro stop- ping during their brief stay in Now York—presented, aa smight be expected, a lively and brilliant spectacle last ‘evening. Atanearly hour in the evening the main on- ‘trance was thronged with gentlemen who came for tho {Purpose of paying their respects to the distinguished General. The promenades up stairs were also crowded ‘with guests and visitors, who passed and repassed the yom (the doors of which were thrown wide open), anxi- , Ous to gota sight at the hero of New Orleans, and con. inued to do so until the General had concluded receiving 18 visitors. It may not be cut of place to say that the Madies and gentlemen were splendidly attired—especially ‘the lateer—and that they vied with each other in con- fribating to the success of the ovation, which ‘wes given to him who had piayed so import. Bot 4 part in the scenes of the fast six ‘months, and who had rendered snch signal service to the ‘Tepublic. Such a gathering of the elite of tho city, sur- wounded by ail that art and luxury can effect, especially An the prese: ce of ‘his distinguished General of our army, would not but present an animated and imposing spectacic. ‘General Butler entered the room about cight 0’ Yelock, ac- G@ompanied by two of his aids, and took bis position in ‘<e centre of the drawing room, and awaited the arrival ‘i those who desired to have an interview with bim. ‘He had not long to wait, for us soon as it was ascertained that he bad left hie private apartments, ove by ove of cur ‘ur distinguished citizens, professional men and leading merchants made their appearance, and were introduced to Genoral Butler.

Private letters from the blockading floet off Mobile, dated December 23, say that many doserters to the United States ‘vessels from the rebel forts and neighborhood state that “General Hardship’ commands in Mobile. Beof once & ‘week, oysters ouly at all other times; no sugar, no ta, no coffee. The pirate Oreto is stil! in the harbor. Our fleet expeot hor to stay there. Nothing has been enter- ing or leaving the harbor since Captain Preblo’s depart ure, gave one sloop, with cotton, which, gotting out, was captured by our cruisers, and a cotton iaden schooner which, getting out under cover of a stormy night, found her heart failing her, and endoavored to run back again’ Jost her footing and went on to the breakers, too nearly under the guns of Fort Morgan to enable our squadron to jo any way sequestrate; but by way of making evory- thing sure sho set herself on fire and was utterly eon- sumed, Everything ia dead and dismal in Mobilo, tho place having become hardly worth taking. A LARGE FLEET OF BRITISH BLOCKADE RUNNERS. It tg stated here that private letters have been received from England announcing that there are now at sea forty ‘Vorselg that have beon fitted out and loaded in British ports with a view to break the bloclmdo of the Southorn American ports, Among them are enumorated tho stoam- ers— Tustit Royal cone Albino, Firth, uro, Wave, Denbigh, Queen, Flora. : Caly ps0, All said to belong to Mr. Lindsay. Also the Bovin Pot, Shelidrake, pg co Childs, lately Prince Albert, called the Julia Usher. ‘The last includes the following sailing vessels cleared from Liverpool before the 26th of November:— Foor 0’ Day, Dighy, i. Inwinsie, ee Quoou of tho Usk. Monmouth, Severn. These vessels are laden with arms, ammunition, clo- thing, shoes, medicines, Ke. It is also stated that a largo amount of Confederate bonds, secured by a pledge of cotton at seven cents per pound, has been gold in England at the rate of five shil- Tings to the pound sterling, and that by these sales seven hundred and fifty thousand pounds sterling have been realized by the agents of the Confederate government. SENATOR FESSENDEN’S FINANOIAL SOMME. Senator Fessenden’s financial measure, in amendment of the House scheme, authorizes the borrowtug of two hundred miilions of doltars—oue huudred millions of dol- lars in coupon bonds, at an interest not exceeding six per contum, fifty millionsg of dollars to be issued in ‘Treasury notes, payable in two years, and bearing intor- ost at four per centum; and $50,000,000 in legal tender notes, without interest. This bill also authorizes the iasue of fractional bills, les then one dollar, in addition to postal currency, exchany«:.ble in sums of three dollars for notes or stampa or othor public cues. ‘The object of suapcndinz the tax rales of lands on tha South Carolina coast, as contemplated by Senator Sum- nor's bill, is to prevent their purchase at low prices by speculatora interested in tbe freedom of these islands, whose successful education to habiis of independent in. dustry would thus be interfered with, and the oultivation of cotton thereby obstructed. « ARBITRARY ARRESTS IN THE STATES. The subject of arbitrary arrests in different perts of the Uniou still continues to excite great attention here, as well as all through the country, I bave ascertained a fow interesting facts in connection with thom, which I now send you. It appears that when the rebellion first broke out, ‘Rnd it was a very doubtful matter bow Marylan® would 80, Mr. Seward assumed the responsibility of making @ number of arrests in that State, and by the jadicious man- ner in which be proceeded, he wae successful in provent. ing Union. The trath is that he wus and, therefore, forearmed, und all the a:rerts were made in the very nick of time. After this the matter was out of =the Dorewarued, “My Maryland” from going thousand. The impression was caused by erronoous ra- turns, Witness never saw such splendid artillery prao- Vice ag that of General Banks’ artillery at the battle of Cedar Mountain, General Pope would have given the enemy battle on the 10th with his combined force, and would undoubtedly have defeated and captured their army. Even with the small force with which General Banks engaged the enemy at - Cedar Mountaia they were too much crippled to revew the contest next day, and the twenty thousand additional troops which General Pope intended to have used would have overwhelmed the enemy under moro favorable auspices. General Pope, in sending Gonoral Banks for- ward, did not give orders to any othor corps commander to co-operate with him in support, General R. thought Goneral Banks brought on the battle of Cedar Mountain by his own demonstrations, as far as tho infantry was concerned. The force of Jackson and Ewell was about thirty-five thousand. I understood that Geuoral McDowell went to the aid of Goneral Banks without orders. My in- structions to General Banks from General Pope bestowed 4 discretionary power upon tho former.
