WASHINGTON, Nov. l2.-Heintzleman' g
pickets extend to Acotinc creek down the
river No rebels have been seen by them
since the reconnaissance.
The President has appointed Lieutenant
Henry A. Wise of the Navy, acting Chief of
the Bureau of Ordnance and Hydrography
in the Navy Department during the tempo
rary absence of Capt. A. HARDWOOD.
1t is not believed at headquarters that
any considerable number of troops have
been withdrawn from the rebel army oppo-
site Washington in consequence of the in
vasion of South Carolina. Besuregard has
not gone to Charleston as reported. The
rumor, however, which imputes to him an
inclination to resign unless a more vigor-
Gus policy be adopted in the conduct of the
war, is not without foundation.
On Saturday morning our guns at Budd' S
Ferry sent l3 shells among the rebels behind
Shipping Point battery, driving them from
the Notifications.
This evening 500 seamen under COM
mander wainwright, took the cars for Cairo
where they will join Commodore Foote'S
hotilla

HERALD's DISPATCH.

WASHINGTON, November 1T.-Gen. Sum
ner has not yet been assigned any COM
mand, but in view of his long experience
and services in California, Gen. Mcclellan,
who was formerly Captain under him,
will detail him Immediately to some re-
sponsible post.
Soon after the announcement was made
of the contemplated Intervention of Eng
land, France, and Spain in Mexican affairs,
our government dispatched a ship of war,
commanded by an experienced officer, to the
Gulf to look after our interests. Another
was also dispatched up the coast to Tam
pico, to prevent the transit of passengers
from the rebel government across that coun-
try; aad also to prevent the shipment of
cotton, &C., from the rebel States This
wise precaution, it is said, has suddenly put
a stop to an extensive traffic which was
about being inaugurated. The alleged in
tervention of these governments in the af-
fairs of Mexico brought up to the last adj
vices from Europe, no satisfactory answer
has been received by our government. They
appear to be quibbling upon this matter,
and seem disnclined to state their real OBJ
jectious and designs. Our government is
keeping a most vigilant watch, and
will not permit this formidable European
combination to make any advancement or
aggression on this continent
