We learn that the Board of Inquiry, which met
at Fort Leavenworth to investigate tie complaints
made by the contractors against Capt. Van Vliet 4.
o. Nj, in relation to his inspection and appraise-
ment of the mules, have presented report signed
by Col. Roberts and Major Gaines condcmning the
conduct of Van Vlet and justifying the complaints
OF the contractors. The report we understand. af
firms that mules were improperly rejected and that
the general appraisemcnt should not have been less
than $lS5 a head Major Sherman does not. it
seems concur in this, and the presumption is that
he will present minority report under his own
signature. The number Of mules received by Van
Eliet was ais. The increased appraisement of
the Board Of Inquiry will add $50 600 to the profits
The acceptance of the rejected mules will swell the
figures still more.

The Cheran Is. c. Gazette SAYS


During the past week we had the pleasure of
making short excursion in the upper part of the
District As to the crops. we must saw we were
agreeaby disappointed, All the early planted corn
matured before the drought, and we think it is
equal to any crop for many years. The late corn
Of which we saw but little, is generally failure
The pea vines generally look fine and in places are
bearing an abundant crop, though there is COM
plant in some neighborhoods of short pea crop
The cotton looks better than we expected. and
many fields will make an average crop, though
there is considerable complaint in places of this
crop also.
