Now, the liberty of the ‘citizen bad beon fully established by the proclamation of freedom, by the amendment to the constitution and by the new constitutions of the States heretofore in rebel- Hon; and on that subject there was no doubt in the wholewwenty degrees of latitude and 60 degrees of longi- tude over which the = the country now waved The yreat rebellion — whic shook the country bad passed away. The South had given up their arwies and their co-called government, and the whole Tavric of the rebellion had vanighed. The States had ‘organized the new constitutions in a proper manner— those constitutious which secared the blessings of free- dom to ail, and had put down those pernicious heresies which bad done so much harm to them. Under these ‘mew constitutions they now came forward and demanded to send their representatives to Congress, which by the constitution of the United States is to be made up of equals, and which declares that what one State is enti- Ned to, #0 is every other State. The constitution also declares these men should be admitted, subject to the will of the House of Representatives, But Congress de- clares that provision of the constitution shonld be set amide and not one of these States should be entitled to representation in Congress until both houses declared they should be so, No moro flagrant wrong waa ever committed than this.

(A Voice, who stopped the Fenians?) ‘the next spoaker was Mr. & 8. Cox, who said it was not the tramp of armies that made war, for the spirit of war might be present in a ceuntry and be found in the appretengion and dismay of the people. We had stilt apprehension and trouble in this country, and why? Thero was gathering of s class of mosaic miscegens a fow days avo in Philadelptis made up of all kinds of peo- ple.of all ages, of all sexes and of all colors. And all their Speeches, male and female, breathed nothing but ven- geance against the South, and war to the kn until equal rights, by whic they meant the rights of the colored population, should be obtained. He now put the question to every good.citizen, was ft not the interest of all men in this Union to have peace and con- tentment and prosperity and fraternity? (Cries of “Y¥e.") How, then, should we have that peace which every one seemed to vant Even the republican caudi- date for Lieutenant Governor said the other night, in Brooklyn, ihat our fag floated now over all this land, and that the fields tat were crimsoned in the struggle were now golden with the harvest of autumn, Even Mr. Reecher himself had ascertamed that it was the interest of the people that these bickerings ehould cease and the Union be restored in its full integrity. How then could we have peace? Thoso who sus- tain the policy of Congress did not propose to be reconciled to the masses of the South. Where, then, are the elements of reconciliation to be found if not under the folds of the Amorican constitu- tion, whose birthday sbonid be celebrated then by that vast assemblage? They were told by that leading radical, General Butler—(hisses)—don’t hiss bim—he is a brave and glorioxs general, don't you know? (Cries of ‘He stole the meney in New Orleans”) No matter, he went there for the ‘people’s good. But it was like King William when he tuvaded England, and said he came for the peorle’s good. He was answered he came for all their goods, Some one had sung of General But- lor :-— Gereral Butler was a soldier brave. Aad a soldier brave was he, But he had for silver spoons Agreat partiality. (Great laughter.) Io answer te & question from the crowd, the speaker said he referred to the great military feat of blowing the bulk bead out of the Dutch Gap canal. Napoleon said to hie goldiors that forty centuries looked down on them from the pyramids, but he would like to know how many centuries looked down on tho martial figure of Buder as he stood that day on the top of the bulkhead of that great institution the Dutch Gap canal. Homer had sung of Achilles and the siege of Troy, but still many doubted if Achitles ever exist: But no scholar in the futuro would ever bo puzzled to find when Butler lived, for General Grant has bottled him and corked him in im- mortality, (From the crowd—What abont Fort Fisner ?)

Mr. Dirrexnosyrer was received with loud applause from the now vast assemblage which thronged the stand, and spoke as follows:— Feutow Crraexs—This grand and imposing demonstra- tion is intended for the purpose of testifying the opin- fone of the peoplo of the city of New York concerning the policy of the administration and its acta. While those who participate in this meeting have heretofore been con- nocted with different parties, they have now come to- gether for the purpose of restoring this country, after a foar yoars’ war, on such a permanent basis of peace that hereafter no digeensions, no discord will again exist within its broad domain. (Applause.) It is intended to bring again together the people of this country—ot ail rections of the country--in one common Union, based upon the trae principles of a republicau government. (Applauee.) Ido not intend, gontiemen, to detata yon with any further remarks, Thore are oiler speekers who will discus# the questions of the day before you in a more eloquent and elaborate manner tan I porsibly can, [therefore now have the pleasure of introda.iug to you Cupiain Kynders.

(Applause) These men are far above the corrupting influences of place or power, They are guided entirely by motives of patriot. om and a love of their country. They se» the dancer that now threatens our once happy land, and it is there- fore that we wee this might gat around Union Park the merchant and the ban the mechanic and the trvdesman, the millionaire and the laborer; im fact, all classes and iuterests of every description Teprosuted hore to-night (Voices—'Hear, bear, beat"), coming out from their quiet homes to give expression wo their honest convictions and sentiments im favor of matn- tatning the statesmantike views and policy of Andrew Johnson, President of the United States. (Greet ap- piause.)' They are here with their fifty thousand voices to proclaim in favor of peace to all our countrymen, and y restoration of a unity of ail the States that acknowledee the authority of the general government at Washington. (Applause.) They also are in favor of Johnson, because he stands by and mainta'ns inviolate the tntegrity of the constitution—that capeiitation which was made by Washington and bis patrhota and handed down to as as the richest y that cout be bequeathed to the American people. (Applaure.) are also in favor of restoring to the people of these United States all the right# aud liberties which are guranteed to them under the constitution, and which havo been handed down to us our forefathers. These are the reasons which have brought the le ont this night upon this vocamion, it hes boon said that “necessity makes etrango bedfeliows!” and T never saw the truth of that Old saying more forcibly {lh ted then upon the Present vccasion.

(Applause and cheering.) If that be so, then every man in this community who wishes to be right, who wishes to maintain the integrity of the constitution and who wishos to see tho unity of the States restored to its former position—our country in the pathway ot glory, power and prosperity as it was before this unhappy war broke ont—ehould allow the States to go im and take their places as the constitution provides and in no other manner ayn J in favor of it. (Applause.) If the States had a right to secede, then when they did the adminis- tration bad no right to make war upon the States, If they bad that right I wil always maintatn that every man killed in the South, and every bit of property taken from the South, was murder in the first instance, aud in tho second was highway robbery, (Applauce.) That waa not the policy of Mr. Lincoln’s administration, He stated that the States could not secede, and that they had not seceded. The North nover bas recognized that vight, consequently the States never were out of the Union, and ought to have the right toa thorongh repre- sentation in the government of the United States, We have fonght four years to keep the States in the Union, and now thoy are about to inaugurate a civil war to flobt four years now to keep them out of the Union. That is asound policy, is it not? (Langhter.) That is one of tho issues, (A voice, “How about the negro?) We will come to the negro afterwards, We will talk about the white man first. (Applause.) We are a white man’s party and we intend to live under a white man’s gov- orbment—(applause)—and for the benefit of the white race, (A voice, “‘Amen."”) That is tho race that I am in favor of, and that is the race that we are speaking for. (A voice, “Buity boy! Cheering and up- plauee.) One of the issues in this struggle is to place the negro on an equality with the poor white man. (Voices, ‘Never, never!) I will not submit to it, If you submit to it you are the voriest slaves that ever stood on tho soil of liberty, (Voteest4 “No! never.”*) In the convention at Phitadel- phia it was there stated by Jack Hamilton, and, I bo- Neve, anothor old granny—Miss Dickinson—(langhter)— that the negro was equal, and, in his deliberate opinion, considering all the circumstances, that the negro was (he sunerior of the white man. (Laughter.) (A voice, ‘He's a liar, G—d d—n him!) My friends, that is a flat-footed truth, I don’t mean to say a man isa liar when he says the negro is oqual to the white man; bat yon aj] know he is a liar, and you spoke it for me— (anghter)—and, therefore, 'I am much obliged to you. (Laugbter.) The negroes at. the Philadelphia ‘con- vention were smart, sbrewd black raacals—{langhter)— and I think they were superior there to the white men of that party. (Laughter and applause.) The negroea are a gallant, loving sort of people, but none of them ever offered a hand to Anna Dickin- son. (Langhter.) ‘Therefore I have a great respect for the negro, Not one of them would degrade himself c@ mech afto marry the Fe’ white trash, one who goes round among them for a husband after she has been dis- carded by the white people. (Zaughter.) The negroes not so foolish as you imagine them tobe. There are some smart, shrewd fellows among them. Thoy would Hot take Anna Dickinson, nor would any respect- able wench take Jack Hamilton. (Laughter.) They understand themselves better. A negro, black as he is, ‘understands whether he gets a full loaf, or whether he gets one with a slice cutof” (Loud laughter. Voices, “Oh!” “Ob! “Oh 17) The speaker inued at great length, discussing various issues in the present campaign, eliciting much applause and laughter. SPEECH OF SENATOR M’DOUGALL. 4 Senator MoDovcart next addressed the meeting substantially as follows:—I intend only to make a few reremarks. The truth about it ig that the present struggle is a stroggle between abolitionism, niggerdom in the North and negroes in the south against true white men. It is a struggle whether the sons of Africa have to do with our govern- ment or have not. This is the question after all, whether they are to make and administer our laws, and it is as well to be understood now as at any time. They are not of our race. I believe in the old legend that Moses wrote. Cain had killed nis brother and was marked upon the forehead, and sent off from his family, Adam and Eve, he went into the iand of Nod, and there he took to himself a wife. Was it a gorilla or what? (Laughter.) That they are not of the white race, that they aro not of our people has been es- tablished by careful investigation by the most analytic science that is to be applied to the question. The aboli- tionists of New England don’t like the necro but think they can make that a good tae. One of t! large orators on one occasion raid to me after visiting the plantations in the South, “the Irish all go to some of to the democrats, and we want to get the negroes to vote against them.”’ (Laughter and vu That gives appla you the cue to the truth. We musi have either a con- cord or a discord; we must have unity or anarchy. men of New who are leading in this fight are tho land, and the President is en- ment, | playing the anarchs of oA dcavoring to unite the land and to prevent the rule of anarchy. ‘The address of Senator McDouga'l was brief, and fre- quently interrupted by various clubs that passed by amid the cheers of the multitude. REMARKS OF COLONEL CORR Colonel Samuri Coxe next addressed the meeting, re- marking that Andrew Johnaon was advocating the con- stitutional Hy ow of this country, after the war hed ght the States back citizens should be received with open arma. There ‘were more Johnson men in the country than he had supposed, and in the next election they would make themselves felt, There was a vast difference be- tween the poliey of Congress and that of the President. it involved the iden of self. government. The republicans were now fightin; party spoils and cared nothing about the welfare No further guarantees were amply odions by the hundreds of thonsends of graver, and the poverty and destitution which the rebellion had produced. Tho speaker was frequently interrupted by applause, and continued the discussion of the various issues now agitating the country to considerable length. GRNERAL CONWS BPEECK. Brigadier General Cons, of New York, was introduced as the hero of a hundred fights, The number and length of the speeches will precinde anything more than a synopsis of the remaining delivered at this stand. Gen- eral Cone commenced by stating that the radicals, who havo for the while past held the reins of power, are now determined not to let go of the pubite teat so long as a drop of milk is left in the ag. ; persist ent denial of Southern States the rights they claimed under the constitution. The danger is not to be averted by calling mon names, but by looking as men square into the face of things, and mecting the inene with earnestness and determination. Otherwise we would drift back inte a state of war. He said that if they lost New York and Pennsylvania the radical Congress would consider that they are endorsed by the people, aud then their rst and chief object would be to impeach Presi- dent Johnson. The speaker said they had not come to talk balderdash. He bad been shot at too often to be now afraid to etand np in the dold vindication of bie prin- ciples, As men and voters the people had now the issues of life and death in their bende, Away with the necro bugbear. He said the thing they were opposing is the strggie on the yurt of the people of New Englapd to swell the volume of thelr political power and thelr individual wealth, and to that ond to thrust upon the country smendmenty to the coustitntion. It was not that they cared for the necio—but for Boston, and the men of property there, Now, the speaker asked, what are you to do to the Union? (A voice, men, that’s wi ‘pen he had been a democrat all his life, und fought in their ranks; bot, said he, ’foul, false js the man who woald not stand by the ‘repub- lican who strives to save the government, aud love him asa brother; and unless there is thia harmony of purpose there ig a gloomy future in store for the country. They were then to unite ju sending men to Congress who would eustain the President. Said the speaker, ‘Rlect John T. Hoffman, and by +o doing you sustain Andrew Johnson, the patriot, one of the last aud noblest we have, and God sustain lym to the end,” After General Cone concinded hid speech the vast audience were favoredgwith a rong from Mr. Kerrigan, to the air of “The King of the Cannibal islands.” bis was followed by short speeches from John Crowley, Colonel Stager, Mr, Barnaby and Everett P. Wheeler. UNIVERSITY PLACE STAND. Speeches of Messrs. Hiram Ketchum, teane R. Wilson, George W. Curtis and Others. Mr. Hinam Keronom, the proiding officer of this stand, on coming forward said that there was a controversy between the President and Congress of the United States, and the people were called upon to decide the question, ‘The Prosident had said that the States lately in rebellion were not out of the Union and that we went to war for the purpose of proving that they were not out, This boing the case it wae right and just that they should be vepresented in the Congrest «On the other hand, the Congress says the people of the lately seceded States ore jon and that they shal! not be readmiited omit to the preseriptions which Congress all be pleaved to make, The Prosident says all the ‘States must be represeoted on the national flag and that he will aphold that fing, (Cheers) The Congress says that althongh the people of the South shall not have Tepresentation, yet they shall be compelled to pay the!r share of the public debt.

AYDPOH OF ISAAC R, WILSON, 1 congratulate you that in the year 1866 the people of the United States are the directors of thelr own laws as Well as they were at that grand hour when our fathers sat in that grand old ball in Philadelphia, We have to go into the past to look for the defence of our conduct in the present. When we came here, @ small population of three millions, we cherished the grand oid word of “Commonwealth ;” but it seems to me that the prevent Congress has forgotten that word. They have remom- dered the war of rebellion; but they have forgotten and ignored the commonwealth, 1 xee our bleed ng brothers { the rebellion come back to us and say, “* We now om- # the republic as the dearest first-born of onr wishes,’ The other party say the war was in defence of the constitation and the Union. We of the North rose defence.ot our hberties when we heard the ery from Sninter; and let me ask you if, when (hat word was brought from Sumter, and that yon were told the fight was not going to be for the Union, would you, the citi- zens of New York, have rashed to the fleld ready to sac- rice your all? (No, no,") Well, the Congress says, altho:h this war was conducted for the Union, now that the Southern people come in repentant, and that they have passed the constitutional amendment, Stevens, the worst of all, says they shall not come into the Union; but. President Johngon—(cheers)—says now that they have found their error, and come back clothed in adiflevent mind, He says, and the American people eny, they ehall come back ; and another voice says come back,” and that voice is the constitution, It says there can be no seceding States; it says that in their case they; must first be shown, If a riot occur in any ward m your city you will not exelude it from all representation in the manieipal counes!; you will make them return to peace, and then they are recognized ag citizens of this sgrand metropolis of the United States, and this is the rile that sbould be applied to the sonthern States. If you do net do so, but follow the advice of Conzrees, you would bave as many State governments in your country as inth apie Confederation. “hull we now aay to the southern States, beeause you have once done wrong you ar’ never again to become citizens ? No, but the Congress ¥880, because they are afraid of the fow ygpresen- tatives which those States are bound to send ip. Are you afraid of them? No, beeanse their doctrine is a Jallucy.

Thor idea of negro suffrage ts also fais», for it is well known that that claes is not yet edu- cated enongh, not yet civilized enough.

The past is worth something; it was founded on blood. he foreigner came here from a)l nations, and it was said so many different elements never ¢ uid meke a nation, but they clasped hands and with unity of action and unity of thought a new world arose ont of the depth of ages, sbining brightly, and 1 know yon will never dim its lustre, but will defend it with your arms and your votes If this party in Congress are aliowed to have their way they will create an intestine war—house against house. brother against. brother and citizen ageinst citizen. Will you help them to do this? No. You will tell them you will defend the constitu- tion of your fathers to the last, and tell them that the eleven States have become as ‘penitent as they can be, and also tell them you live in a civilized age, and in an age of freedom and of liberty. You are here met to prevent the di-astrous resulis which should follow on the triumph of Congress, and 1 know you will doit. I believe the spirit of the past has some influence on you, and I believe you aro worthy of the constitution which your fathers entrusted to you, Work on, and yonr virtues and actions will lead you to a glorious end, and it will also tend to make thia, again, a great and a glorious country. (Cheers,) APRECH OF GEOKGE M. CURTIS. Mr. Corns referring to the object of the late war said it was waged to perpetuate the Union of the States, and not to keep a certain number out of the Union. The rebellion was crushed, and the South bad acknowledged that they had been defeated and were willing to submit. In alluding to slavery he said that the immortal seventh resolution embodied in the series passed by the Philadel- phia Convention in August, deciared the institution abol- ished forever, and it was not tho desire or intention of the Southern people to restoro it again to vex the na- tional potitics, The Sonth bad thrown itself upon the maenavimity of the North, They admit the ques- tion of seceesion has been settled by the sword, and de- clere that the national debt shall be sacred, but that the rebel debt shall not be paid. For this they deserve to be treated reat, the North. In speaking of State Tepresentation, Mr, Curtis thonght that any man who taught the doctrine of secession should, to use the ex- pression of Andrew Jackson, ‘be hung, by the eternal gods.” They would take care the American people ‘should not lose any of ther inherent rights, Before the acts of Congress could be legalized, it would be ni at of the count in Con- from the it conservative efforis ps og senate eka hana ee ieee fast by their colora, SPRECH OF JAMBS D.

In Drilliancy, In enthusiasm, or it nnmbees, the scenes in Tnion square last night have rarely beon equalled, certainly never surpasse?, Even a3 late as ine o'clock many of the ward associations entered the square, and as each one passed in review betore the main siand, the speaker was for the time being interrupted in his re- marks by the stentorian voices that welcomed each ar- rival, The old gontioman with a turban, flourishing a broom, drawn in an open errringe by a pair of horses, and who attracted so much attention during the late Fre- sidential reception in this , was on hand, and wae re- ceived with cheers of merriment, The venders of ice water, at five cents a glass, did a brsk- trade, and the enterprising proprietor of the travelling soda water stand was kept bury in the dispensation of soch wares as his caravan afforded, Shortly before ten o’clock the pyrotechnic display, which had heen gotten up expe- cially for the necasion by the Mysars. Edze, was set fire to, and attracted the attention Of the assomblage, and ag ench piece was discharged the expressions of wonder and astonishment which followed waa only equalled by the anxiety and suapense exh'bited for the discharge of the grent central tablean. The eccond best piece waa very fino, consisting of three lines of red and yellow letters, eoniaining the worts, “J stand upon the eonstiintion and the reunion of Sintes.”” ‘This appeared to fine ad- vantage, as immediately bebind it stood a pine tree, tho rich foliace of which showed off the letters with fine effect. This was followed by the gem of the evening, Tepresonting the fieure of Johnson, surmonnted by a rainbow, on either side of which were two figures, one representing the South, with extended hand, and the other the North, tendering the olive branch, and indar- neath which wore inseribed the words ‘Peace and re- union,” the whole snrrounded by thirtv-six stars, repre- senting ibirty-six States, Tho scen> dnring this display wes grand in the extrema; bundreda of rocketa tit up the air; guns belched forth their salvos; thonsands of voices rung out their vivas of admiration, and when silence was in some dogree restored from the brazen throats of the nomerons bands the national anthem was given, which was in turn tatren up by the ass°mbled multitude. From this time the crowd bogan to disperse, the various Ward associations becan to fall into line and leave the square by the different avenues leading towards their quarters, stands became unoccupied save by the blue- coated policemen who ocenpied them until taken pos- session of by those having them in charge, and in half an hour afterwarda the square assumed {ts usual quietnde, and the great demonstration in sopport of the constitu- tion and the reunion of States was bronght to a close. PICKPOCKETR AT TE MEETING. Atno public meeting for some years past has there been so few thieves to be found, and those were arrested ‘as soon as they made their appearance. But four were arrested. Their names, or rather those given by the prisoners, are John Franklin, George Andereon, George Brown and Henry Cainpbell. All are voung men, and well known to the police as thieves. The two former were locked up for the night in the Fifteonth precinct station house, and the latter at police headquarters, WASHINGTON. ‘Wasmsaroy, Sept. 17, 1866. The Presidemt Conazratulated on his Safe Return, This afternoon the heads of the Bureaus of the Trea- sory Department calied in a body upon the President to tender him their respects and their congratulations on his safe return from his Western tour.

Mr. Wilson, in behalf of the heads of bureaus of the ‘Treasury Department, welcomed the President home and congratulated both him and themselves on his safe re- tara to the scene of his official duties. Ho said on his long journey to the tomb of the great American states- man, whose memory would live in the hearts of his countrymen forever, it waca gratifying reflection that be had met with many pleasing incidente, and where he met with annoyance it was but from men who were worthy to bear the name of American citizen. Onur country has passed through many dangers, and always with safety, proving ourselves eminently fit for self-government. Passing through the last great ordeal with the incubus of slavery abolished, they bad great hopes of progressing steadily onward in the great race of national prosperity, Under your pro- tecting care, Mr. Wilson added, the Union of thirty-six States will continue its course of happiness and pros- perity. In reply President Jobnson briefly returned bia thanks for the visit nnd the sentiments expresred, and said he did not doubt that perseverance in the course which was Pointed ont by the constitution would eventually effect a happy adjustment of the country’s difficultice, ‘The President then shook bands with the gentlemen present, and they withdrew. ‘Sel Celebrat The first Schitzenfest in this city wax commenced to- day. Large numbers of Germans, with their friends from abroad, engaged in the festivities, which are to be continued until Friday. As the procession to-day passed the Executive Munsion, the President came to the por- ico, when Fun il Fiechor and Major Blumenburg. leaving their carciage, presented him with two beautiful bou- quets. Major Blumenburg remarked if bolding up the bonquet, that be was happy thus to honor him, and he, with the members of the Baltimore Agsociation, wished him every success in fife. ‘The President remarked that he folt thankful for the compliment, and was glad to see in the metropolis of the nation so many ‘mans, all of whom he hoped would spend 9 pleasant time, Quite a number of the houses of ovr German citizens are to-day decorated in honor of the occasion, The shooting thie afternoon was for the best sing)» shots for ten golden medals, To-morrow the members wil! shoot for the “king modal,’ which is of goid, with a massive chain, and is now held by Mr. Lewis Beyer, In the Afternoon a grand banquet will take place, There were over three thonsand persons present on the grounds of the Seventh street park this afternoon.

Secretary Seward’s Condition Still Critica! Rectetary Seward still lies in a critical condition, although the symptoms thie morning appear to be favor. able, Marshal Gooding and the Presidential Party. Some of the newspapers have republished a report about Marshal Gooding’s having been relieved from official ser- vice in connection with the Prosidential party on the /ate excursion, while others have quoted words attribated to Secretary Seward in derogation of that gentleman. All these stories are mere slandors or fictions, having no trath whatever for their basis. Mr, Gooding was efficient and attentive during the entirp trip, with the excep- tion of several days when he was obliged to temporarily loave the party in consequence of severe indiepos!tion, but joined them at Indianapolis. Tmportuning the President for Office. Anumber of delegations are here from various sec ‘ions of the country to urge apon the President the claims of Uhelr friends to official appointments in their respective localities, Those from the West are mainly democratic, and are prepared to demand some further Tecognition than has yet been accorded them, as condition precedent to their hearty support. A move. ment is said to be on foot among the conservative repub- lican supporters of the President to insist on his fighting the battle inside of the repabliean party. This the democratic element is bound to oppose.

The amount of available funds in the cash vaults of the treasury at the close of business on Saturday last, ac- cording to the financial report of the treasurer for the week ending on the 15th inst., was as followe:— United States legal tender not see $9,672,000 National Bank notes, + 21,741 Fractional currency + 351,157 Gold ..... - 882.850 Silver 2.660 Coin... 5 1,000 Three cent coin, 930 Pennies The amonut of receipts from customs at the port of New York from the Ist to the 8th et September foote up to the astonishing sum of $3,892,016, Redyction of the Number of Volunteer OM~ cers in the Army. ‘The Secretary of War is reducing the number of yvol- unteer officers remaining in the service as rapidly ae the exigencies of the army will permit, Within the present month a large number have been returned to their lineal rank in the regular army, or have found thelr way to civil occupations, An entirely new method seems to have bren adopted by the War Department in offecting these changes. Instead of promulgating the master out orders by lists each officer is now mustered out by vir- tue of an extract from a War Department spectal order, having reference to himself only. By thie method the fact is known to none but the department and the officer concerned, Like the enemy's ballets, these missiles from the War Department speed to their destinations, dealing swi/t destruction to official ranie and dignity, and without a warning note titles fall in alk directions. Most of the volunteer officers that have been retained in the service are on duty in the Freedmen’s: Bureau, Many of these have already been honorably discharged since the lst of September, and a number of others, it is expected, will be mustered out by the ist of October. All the offlcor: acting in the capacity of Assistant Commissioncre of the Froedmen'’s Bureau are to be mustered out of their volunteer rank. Each of them will, however, be retained in the regular service, either by virtue of com- missions now in their possession or by appointments re- cently made, with the exceptions of Major General Ry K. Scott, Assistant Commissioner of South Carolina, an@ Major General Davis Tillson, Assistant Commiesioner of Georgia, who hold no other than volunteer commissions, but the muster out of these officers has been suspended until the Ist of December next to allow them time to properly arrang: the affairs of the Sea Islands, which hace hitherto been in a rather unsettled condition. Major General Clinton B. Fisk, late Assistant Commissioner of Freedmen's affairs in tho State of Kentucky, has recently, been mustered out of service, and las gone to St, Louis for the purpose of entering into bosiness. It is under ‘stood that the officers who have received appointments in the veteran reserve and colored regiments of the regu- lar army will be permitted to continue in their present volunteer rank until their commissions’ in the regular army are received by them, which will be when their commands are recruited. ; Promotions in the Army.
