The Quartermaster Gengral’s Department has just pub- lished, by authority of tho Secretary of War, a roll of the namos of all soldiers interred in the several military cemetories at the capital of the United States, for the in- fo-mation of their comrades and friends. The cemeteries are five in number, The United States Military Asylum Cometery contal s six acres, was opened August 3, 1861, and filled by May 18, 1864. It now contains five thousand two hundred and cleven greves. The Harmony Ceme- tory was opened for those who died of contagious dis- eases February 17, 1863, and has had five hundred and ten intorments of whites, and two thousand seven hun- -drod and forty-one of blacks. Tho Battle Comotery was opened for those who fell in defence of Washington on July 12, 1864, and contains forty graves.

It is said that the government does not assent to the doctrine of the Vice Chancellor of England, as pro- nounced in tho case of the United States sgainst Prioiean. ‘The United States aro not likely to concede very soon that the rebels are now, or ever were, a de facto govern- meni, nor very likely to consent to derive titie to their own property throngh that imaginary concera, and be- ing @ sovereign State dealing with other States accord. ing to ihe Customary methods, they are not especially likely to snbmit, without process of attachment, to de- cives which may be registered against thom by a Court of Chancery gitting in Westminster Hall, a Hyinner * rn wer APPATRS IN SOUTH CATOLINA. “Mr. Greer, of the origina!

The spurious notes are casily detected and promptly branded “counterfeit” with an iron constantly kept heated for that purpose, Of course the holders, and not the Treas- ury, bear the lose. From ninety dollars to one hundred dojlere of such -currency of various denorninations is destroyed every dav, No knowledge of counterfeit vai.onal bank notes has come to the bureau, nor of ones or twos of the United States currency. Tho latter deno- minations, however, are altered to represent higher amounts, and some photograph fives are in circulation. A ‘olerably well executed fifty dollar note recently found tie way to the Redemption Bureau, having previously beon stamped as counterfeit by an Eastern bank. The niost numerous counterfeits are on the fractional cur- rency. PERSONAL. Hou, Mr, Walker, Fifth Auditor of the Treasury Department, left here yesterday fora tour through the West. 9 Hoa.

The trip occupied about four weeks, and was p)r0- ductive of much and valuable insight into the operation of the system adopted by the bureau for the develop- ment of the freedmon. ‘The General found the planters everywhere accepting as an existing fact the complote THs ing the National Troops in Texas, . and permanent overthrow of sizvery, and the common Sepeennnens remark among them was that if the negroes could be kept in subjection it was clearly their policy to recognize | GENERAL CAREY ON FREEDMEN. their emancipation and enter into contracts for thoir labor, as the war had so demoralized the latter that their employment without componsation of some sort would be of little avail to the planters. It bas been a matter ‘of some complaint among the planters that the negroes worked less steadily under the new régime than formerly, and were moved to change their location upon the most trifling caprice; but in a great measure this restlessness has been found tw be mainly the fault of the employer. From a close ob- servance throughout tho Statos alluded to General Fuller- ton is inclined to, believe that the numbor of whites and blacks who receive government rations is about oqual. Railroads and other facilities for travel are rapidly being restored to working order in Florida and Georgia, and in passing through the country thore is no danger whatover to bo apprehended. The cereal crops aro ro- presented to be looking very promising and so abundant as to put all fears of scarcity of breadstufls in those States at rest. COMMISSIONER OF THE INDIAN BUREAU PRO TEM.— THE GRAND INDIAN COUNOM., Gencral R. B. Van Valkenburg, ex-Congressman from the State of New York, isin the city. It is understood that the General will act as Commissioner of the Indian Bureau in the absence of Judge Cooley, tho incumbent, who starts with the Indian delegation on the 17th inst. for Fort Smith, to be absent about two months. A telegram was received at the bureau to-day from Senators Lano and Pomeroy, of Kansas, asking the agents of the Indian tribes of that State to be allowed to be present at the council in question, as those tribes are desirous of locating themselves upon new grounds. This privilogo was grauted. At the request of the Amorican Geographical and Sta- tiatical, and the American Ethnographical Societies, Dr. McGowan has been appointed to accompany the com- mission to the Indian territory. COMMISSIONER OF PATENTS. Governor Morton, of Indiana, arrived in the city to- day, and is understood to be here to urge the re- tention of Mr. Halloway as Chief of tho Patent Bureau, The appointment of Mr. Theacker grows more improbablo from day to day, until but tittle likelihood now remains of his receiving the appolat- ment. Should Halloway be removed the placo would be claimed for the State. Halloway is understood to have been forced into tendering his resignation to Secretary Harlan. If championed by Governor Morton his fight for the position may become formidable. APPOINTMENTS. The following appointments have been made by the President :— “ J.C.

BarnismaL Exoursion to Statan Istanp —Yesterday was tho day appointed for the ablutions of Professor Neyes Wheeler, chief of the Israclitish tribe aud foutter of the only true religion. Gien Cove was the place »ppoiuted; but, owing to about two dozen per- sons oul; appearing to proceed on the excursion, the pro- Prietor of.ho burgo very wisely expressed some doubts as to payNent for his services and refused to go. His evident unipreciation of the heavenly load he would have had newecarily grieved the Israelitish chief greatly, who ralsed hithands in pious horror and invoked for- givoness of biting, Three or four of the b’hoys, how- ever, were deciadiy averse to their sport being lost, and a change of base vas proposed, they offering to defray expenses to Siiteriland, where tho ceremony might be proceeded with. Tl» ‘high orjest” consulted the “daugh- Aer of Zion,” and sin being Seeseabte they started, and about one mile from: tanderbill's 1attoes the cecemo| was performed. The wo who at the conclusion of the services were to declaze themselves “one in we boly tempie,” proceeded to sparate bathing boxes, and at- tired themselves in the caxomary bathing apparel, with the exceptions that tho “haydugiden of th Lord’? wore mg linen robe and the bixh priest, alias Md Wheel ashort one with dirty white fants, Hand inhand, a in the presence of not over thirty persons, Wiy enjoyed the scene thoroughly, they wended their waythrough the surf, the older one shivering reoptiby, Ar. rived at the proper depth the “officiating dster”’ ducked her brother im the faith in an excoedngly graceful manner, During this highly important pétion of the programine an incident occurred which partoa of the sacreligious. One ot the b’buys having wndresed himself somewhat lower down, swam up to the cont». erated spot where tho ablutions were being performec and, no doubt imagining the chief of the Israelites was not ‘clean enough—a very correct inference, wored to duck bim further. Wheeler at firet imagined the devil had come to claim his own, and mumbled ‘Retro Sathanas"’ at each reappearance; but finding it was but flesh and blood he strugcled and sui in extricating himself from the intruder’s clutches, Tho two then mado their way to the shore, redressed rer) eran as quickly as possible.
