The despatch, however, mentions that.all on board were saved. ‘The Sacramento was a second rate screw steamer, of 1,367 tons, old measurement, and was built at the Porte- mouth Navy Yard during the war. She went on ber trial trip on the 22d of January, 1864, and sailed from Boston on special service on March 24 of the sume year. Sbe was then ordered to European waters to search for rebel privateers, and in October was refused coal at -outl pton, by order of Ear!

M. The Recent Proceedings of the Cabinet. In the account of the Cabinet deliberations given in those despatches yesterday a slight correction is needed. ‘The vote of the Cabinet was taken on the question as to whether the proceedings on the Attorney General’s opinion in relation to the power of removal and appointment of civil officers by military com- manders should be published, and not as to whether the writfen reasons offered by Mr. Stanton should be admitted tothe record. Mr. Stanton’s reasons why he voted against certain sections of the opinion were entered at his request, and it was afterwards decided not to give this portion of the proceedings to the public, It is understood that s resolution will be iptroduced soon after the assembling of Congress, calfing upon the President for all that transpired during the four days’ sorsion of the Cabinet, ‘The Trial of Surratt. The Surratt trial continues to be the chief attraction to mght-seers here. Tne Court room is now daily crowded in all parts with people anxious to get a view of the notorious prisoner. Cards of admission have to be issued to the main body of the Court room. In spite of Judge Fisner’s precautions to avoid any action calculated to prolong the trial, the case seems Wkely to be drawn out to a prodigious length. ‘The defence, it is understood, intended to prove that Surratt stopped at a hotel in Elmira on the 14th of April, 1865, and while in that city purchased a suit of clothes; but on searching for the hotel register at was dhecovered to have been lost or stolen, It is said that tho register in question, if produced, would prove ‘that Surratt stopped there on the 13th of April, instead of the 14th. The Missing Treasury Bonds. *Tho question of the missing bonds in the Treasury Department is still involved in mystery, notwithstanding fresh attempts bave been made to cover up the tracks and lose the scent, Will these late alarms of vanisb- ing bonds and currency, and blunders of the number- ing machinery, be permitted to fade from the memory without a satisfactory explanation? fhe must that surrounds the printing division of the Treasury is of a very serious charac.er and should certainly be cleared away. That the missing ninety-nine bonds were discovered by a young lady ina package of “beor stamps,” after a committee of capable and confidential clerks had failed to discover them, especially as the “‘beer stamps” are about two inches longer each way than the bonds, is quite as mysterious as their disappearance, How did the bonds get into such strange company? The bonds and stamps are handled, counted and made mto packages im different departments and by entirely differont parties, The bonds were missed on the 4th of May, which fact was not reported to the Secretary before the 16.b, and then it was reported by &@ committee of confidential clerks. The ‘uperintend- ent of the Printing Bureau then explained that the bonds were only printed in tints, and were therefore not baif finished, Upon investigation the committee reported that the bonds were entirely finished, with the exception of the seal and signature. The Superintendent of the prihting division baving deen called upon by the Secretary for s report, stated that he was aware that the missing bunds were finished, ‘ut had reported them incomplete in order to avoid ex- citement of any kind, as be was confident that they were only misiaid and would soon be found. It is stated that during the time mtervening between the loss of the bonds and the day it was reported tothe Secretary the department had no beer stamps on hand, and several persons who required them were so informed. The stamps, then, have been printed since the bonds were lost, and the inference is plain that the bonds found in the, of beer stamps were elther stealthily, restored by the person who abstracted them, or they are not the identical bonds that were lost, but duplicates, There is nothing to prevent duplicate bonds being printed, as the presses are runniog day and night, and no correct account is kept of the paper on which either the bonds or the stamps are printed, It is well known that duplicate coupons of the previous issues of bonds are constantly being prosented for pay- ment, and these coupons mst necessarily represent a heavy amount of unauthorized bonds that bave been Printed from the genuine plates in the department, and the government at this time has an agent in Europe looking up these duplicates, Of course it ia impossible to say who is accountable for this mixed con- dition of things in the Treasury; but a thorough fnvestigation should be entered into and the public sat- isfled that ail is wei!, and that the evil will be corrected. Li itis not, the holders of the public debt may too soon ascertain that these loose opera’ ioas of the Treasury will result in the repudiation of millions of bonds that are now regarded as the best investment for idle capital. Congress, in meeting next month, would do well to call upon the Seerotary of the Treasury for the report, of from seven hundred to nine hundred pages, which has been made to him by bis confidential committee. Among other things this report will convince Congross that its Committee on Retrenchment have not been as shrewd ‘and diligeut as they might have been. ‘The Portuguese Leagntion. M. D’Autos, Portuguese Minrster Plenipotentiary, who presented his credentials to the President on the 3ist of May last, goes to Europe on leave of avsence on Satur- day next, M, De Roza, who has filled the pesition of Chargé d’Affaires since December last, will continue in the same position during the absence of the Minister, who w oxpected to return on the Ist of October, Organization of the Republicans in Florida.

Several influential papera in the country districts of Virginia are suggesting a grand conference of patriots, to be held in Richmond on the 25th day of July. The Valley Verginian proclaims all parties dead but the re- Publican party, and asks itself how would it do to have two pares in Virginia—the conservative repub- licans and the radical republicans. the former composed of democrats, whigs and Unionists, white and colored. It announces itself engaged in turning over that question, and concludce by impressing on the people urgent need for a conference between the patriots of the State. A valley paper declares that accounts from all parts of the South bear the same testimony, that under the management of the dema gues and oilice holders the population of the South is arrayed race against race, biack agalnst white, The only contest is a contest of races. It predicts a thou- sand maiedictions will tight upon the wretches who have brought this great evil, full of sorrow to both races, and involving the destruction of the blacks.
