Tae gaps are all in tholr possession, @nd it would not be a difficult matier for a large body of ‘the rebsi army to cro's the Biuo Ridge at Manuesas Gap ‘and possibly rench Thoroughfare Cap before our com- Manding oflicers could receive intimation of such a movement. ‘There is a ccnsiderable force of rebel cavalry in tho Shenundoah valicy, aud parties are constantly scouring “the country towards Bull Run Mountains. Stuart is at Culpepper Court House, ‘ No fears are ebtertainet, however, concorning the re- Gult of any attempt to flank us. General Meado has disposed his forces in such a manuor as to aflord protec: ~tlon to our rear as well us the front, aod a repetition of Jackson's insacuvering woul doubtless result evea more = disastrously to Lee than did bis invading stratexy.

LSPECTION OF OoNSURIVTS. But this exchanging of clothing is ouly one way the old soldiers have of extracting amusement from tho new | approved September 11, 134, comers, After the duties of the morning are over an en- | torprising observer might discover a crowd of vetorans | escorting a party of recruits to some secluded place near | Galnp where “inspeotion”’ is to take place. Now it must ‘not be supposed that this ‘inspection’ is that inspecti2g | referred to in the army regulations, but ts a sort of rude | ritual improvised for the oceasiif. The party, as thoy i Fass out of camp, are genoraliy under tho charge of a | now-commissioned officer, selected for his humor and | ability to creato the most profound impression upon those who are to be ‘‘inspectod.”” Arriving at a point in somo field near where perhaps are ensconced the commissioned omcere gf the regiment, within the thick foliage of the oT and blackberry, tho candidatos aro ordered to divest themselves of their clothing and to form inte live. If the day be one of those intensely hot ones, such as have ailicted us for a few days past, the denuded patriots are not kept facing the sun over half an hour at a time, whea they are allowed to ‘about face’ and go through the manual of arms wutil cooked upon each side atike, When ‘thia culinary process is comp!oted, the “inspected” are allowed to don their babiliments, when they aro told that such must be gone throngh with in order to hardoa them to tho service, If a rain comes ap during the day, so: high private who does not mind ing wet parfdes the green soldicrs for squad drill un- Ui! the shower fg over, to the no smali afnayance of all concerned.

AMUSEMENTS OF CAMP LiFt, Whfe uyon this matter of amusement I must tell you of a circumstunce which occurred a few days ago, and which hug caused a deal of merriment at headquarters. I have added to the Henary’s outfit a splendid wagon in which to transport the camp equipage, forage, commis- sary stores, luxuries and etcotervs belonging to the Heraty’s brignde. Well, in order t» let the correspond- ents and ak concerned know where the subscriber could be found, I had painted upon either side of the said ‘am. bulance,” fn large letters, Recsrerrosernereweenreeroapeseenananaret st OCA 6s HEADQUARTERS, nenneeneeeeeee dt ated eh rt Meeebt These mystic lotters for a long time were the puzaie of the camp for no one seemed to think that a newspaper estabtishment could have enterprise enough to got up sucb en attachment, and many were the guesses as to what N.Y.

He was gosticulating wildly, his bead rolled from side to side like & pumpkin 1 a wheel- barrow; his tongue, swollen to au enormous size, hung out in front of his countenarce like a beef’s liver upon a butcher's biock, while his legs performed time of which Jackson or Steeprock might well be proud. As the man neared me I discovered that he was a demoralized sutier in extreme agony, and when he reached my tent he broke ‘out, in accents as wild as bad been his actions, and as audible and understandable as his swollen tongue would permit— “Oh, Doctor, Doctor I elther a snake has bit me ore hornet stung me in my mouth and on my toogue. What shall do? What eball I do? I shall die—I know I shall, if I don’t get help.”? “Said I, “You had better go for a surgeon; I dou’t ope rate in that way.” «Aren't you a doctor ?’’ interrogated the sufferer. “Not if the court knows horsolf,’’ suggested Houston. “What does that ‘N.

I told him the interpretation—“Nxw Yore Herat. ‘Then, with a look of disappointment bordering on despair, his whoie organism seomed to be overflowing with indig- nation , not to say disgust. He vented himself of afew high y irreligious exclamations, which must be guessed at, as they would not look well in print; but I gatber from what he said, as be pointed for the nearest surgeon, that, he bad mistaken my “‘outft”’ labels to betoken that withia were the headquarters of the New York Hospital. 1 wish I could get some news; but I cannot; so I shall have to quit.

Thurlow Weed has turned another somorsault. But @ ‘short timo since he was negotiating with Corning, Cagger, Seymour and the leaders of the democracy with a view to the creation of a great conservative party which would embrace all the elements of opposition to the administra. tion, The arrangement was weil undorway when the crazy peace copperhead movement doveloped itaelf in the ranks of the demecracy, The nomioation of Vallandig- ham by the Ohio copperhe; disgusted Weea, but he warned bis new associates that uniess tho World, News and the leading organs apd ore tors of the democratic party did uot take a more patriotic aud national tone, that he would be compelled to quit the concern. Tho splendid yictories of July have comploted the conversion of Weed, and he ts now breaking ground to cut the democratic party and organize instead a conservative administration party, the leading tenets of which wil! be support of tho administra. Lion ip the conduct of the war and opposition to the schemes of the copperbeads and peace democrats. Weed sees, or thinks he sees, decided revulsion of feeling againat radical measures in the administration party,and his opinion ts that from thia time forth, a8 the prospect of end. ing the rebellion iacreases, Mr. Lincoln will, from the force of circumstances, be more under tho control of the conservative republicans. While abolitionism was in the ascvnding node Weed’s ‘star was in opposition to it; but be now believes that the zenith has been reached and passed, and that herea‘ter radicalism wili be in the descending node. He is prepared to kick it ag It is going down hil, From reeont dovelopmeuts in New York politics Weed thinks it possible for him to resume bis power in tho re- publican party, and to upset Gresicy, Field and thoir as- sociates. Their failure in the Wadsworth campaign, and tho necessity {or more brains in the management of the ropublican party,are felt by the rank and f\!0, and Mr. Se. ward thinks that Weed wili be warily welcomed back to his 0! position. You may be preparod, therefore, for a public change of base on the questions of the day on the part of Thurlow Weed. THE CONFERENCE. Senator Harris, of New York; Governor Tod, of Ohio; Senator Cowan, of Pennsylvania; Governor Randall, of Wisconsin, and several other republican leaders, had an interview with the President this morning. ‘ TUE CONSCRIPTION, There were one hundred and seven applicants for ex- emption to-day before the Commissioners of the Draft in this District through substitutes or physical disabitity Forty three conscripts wore turned over to the guard and carried to the camp. This is considered a good day's work by the drafting officer. About twelve hundred con- scripts will be obtained in this city, Somo dissatisfac- tion 1s expressed bere with the manner in which drafted men bave been treated in the District. No sooner is a conscript examined and pronounced capable for military duty than be ts placed under guard and confined in the Conscript Camp, affording him no opportunity whatever to procure a substitute or to raise the neces sary sum to secure oxemption. A number of individuals have been thus caught who intended to furnish substi- tutes if required, but, belleving themselves exempt by reason of disability, ne,lected to take the substitute with them to the enroliing officer. THES LOSSK8 IN GENERAL GRANT'S CAMPAIGN. Military men here are astonished to find from General Grant's report that leas than a thousand men wore killed in his five batties. Many persons bave claimed that it was the President, aud not General Grant, who origi- nated the idea of taking Vicksburg. MOENTED TROOPS YOR ROSECRANS’ ARMY. Major General Rousseau and Colonel Sanderson, from Rosecrans’ army, are bero to urge compliance with the request of General Rosecrans to be aliowed to organize a mounted force of infantry and cavalry to facilitate his operations. It is requested that General Rousseau shall be authorized to enlist twelve thousand volunteers, two thoussad to act as cavalry and the rest as infantry, al! to be mounted. It is almost uviversaily ackuowledged that such @ mounted force is indispensably necessary. Such is the opinion of the President and of ail military men. Yet there appears to be besiiation on the part of the War Department to grant this request of a popular command ing officer In the Geld, Surprise is everywhere expressed that this request should not begromptly gravted, par ticularly as it is Known that since it was preferrod autho- rity has been given to individuals to raise cavalry reg! ments. These mounted troops are needed. Rosecrans asks for the privilege of raising them Rousseau is willing to undertake t6 do so, and it is strange that gonerai officors who have proved their worth in the field and been tried in the baptism of fre should uot be allowed @ priviloge accorded to simple politicians , who have never yet smoiied gunpowder, THE TRIAL OF DETECTIVE WHITE. ‘Tho court martial, of which Brigadier Genera! Slongh Is President, to-day conciaded the testimony for the pro fecntion in the case of dotective Samuel White, It ap- pears that he demanded aad received from a party of Jows five hundred and twenty dollars to procure them passes withio our Kaes,and represented that the movey was to be paid to the Provost Marshal. The evjtence for the defence witl be heard to-morrow, The session of this court will be protracted, aa there are a large number of canes to be tried before it, many of them of quite an tn- teresting character. ‘THE CASE OF GENERAL MILROY. The court of inquiry ordered to investigate the Wia- chester evacuation case bas not yet commenced to hear testimony, nor is it probable that it will do eo (or sevreal days. Lo. te al Dr. T. F.

The change gives great satis: faction to the medical fraternity connected with the military service. 10s PAY OF VOLUNTEER OFFICERS ON DETACHED GERVICE. Dr. Brodhead, Second Comptrolior of the Treasury, bas decided that volunteer officers,detached on duty when their regiments are discharged upon oxpiration of entst- ments, are entitled to pay, travel, &e., at the place where they may rightfully be at the time of discharge. DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZE MONEY. In all captures made by the navy before the act of July, 1862, distribution of prises must be made under the act of 1800. A NATIONAL BANK IN NEW YORK.

Commanding officers of corps, divisions, &c., will immediately cause inspections to teaous be held responsible for the ation of this order.

The easign meot of transportation for ammunition will be made in Proportion to the amount ordered to be carried. Cavalry horses are often broken down or injured by permitting the riders to carry cxtra baggage. Cavalry oficora wilt be be'd responsible for the immediate removal of theseevils. The knapsacksa of infantry soldiera will also be frequently inspected, to see that they are properly packed and that nothing is carried in them except what is directed by regulations and orders. Ip ordinary marches, when the troope cau recoive daily issues from the trains, they will be required to carry only two days’ rations; but In the immodiate vicinity of the enomy, and where the exigencies of the service render it necessary for troops to move without baggage or trains, the men may bo required to carry with them from eight to twolve days’ rations, as foliows:—For sight days, five days beef or mutton to be driven on the hoof, or col. lected in tho country paased over; three days cooked rations in baversacks, weight Ove pounds three-quarters; five days rations of bread and small stores in koapsacks, six pounds; a change of underclothes in knapsacks, two pounds; a blanket, five pounds oue-quarter—total weight, uinetees pounds.

Utficors’ aorvanta are expected to carry rations for thote officers and themselves. ‘Those of mounted officers are expected to be mounted and to be able to carry small forage for thoir animals; long forage must be sought for im the country. By increasing the ordinary meat ration, and levying con- tributions of flour and meal io the country passed over, the bread and small rations carried as above by the sol- diors may be made to last from twenty to twenty-fiye days.
