The Washington correspondent of the Cinsin-
mai Commercial says;
1t hiss taken our authcritiss-eivil and milits-
ry-a long time to learn the lesson Of this rebel
hon, but we may Aow hope that they have fairly
begun TO learn it at last Hitherto the war has
seemed to be carried on (in Virginia, a. lasst)
more like magnificent piece of diplomacy than
8 war. Its conductors, in the Cabinet and ia
the field, seem never to have nd themselves OF

hibition Of superior power, and return 10 tha

ARREST OF CoUNTERFETFERs.-Our police
made most important capture yesterday. They
arrested two men, strangers, who bad been in
town several days, who were charged with pass
ing counterfeit money. Their names are VIM.
@. Adams aud J. Buchanan, and they state that
they are from Mississippi, and have been in the
Confederate army. When arrested their clothes
were carefully searched and large rolls Of Con-
federate bank notes found on them. A quantity
of them were Confederate notes raised from fves
to fifties, by pasting q cypher against the figure
fyo. Others were one dollar bills of an old
issue of the Real Estate Banking Company,
South Alabama, with the names Of president and
cashier evidently forged.
There were also bills Of the Bank of South
Carolina" Of the denomination of ten dollars.
and the one we saw was numbered at 1885, There
is no such bank in South Carolina, How large
an amount of this spurious money was in the
possession of these men we do not exactly know,
but it would seem that they came here with the
intention of setting it ehoat, to the great injury
of the government and community. We learn
that they tried to pass the raised bills after they
had been told they were not genuine

EHerOism Of our Soldiers at viclssburg.


Gen. NJ. L. Smith, Ii a general order, compG-
menting The bravery of the defense of Vicks-
burg, notices several instances of Individual
gall.ntry. He says;
The two most prominent are Sergeant Viii
liam Boyle, company 1, and Private John Muir
ray, CspeTs' battery, lst Louisiana artillery.
The first acting as gunner during the fierce ac-
ton Of the 25th of June, had his right hand
crushed by the fragment of shell, while stop
ping the vent of his piece yet faithfully main
tained his position, not raising his wounded
hand until all danger of premature discharge
had passed, thus preserving, by his GOODNESS and
bravery, the lives of his companions at the gun.
The second, on the morning Of the 28th day
of june, when ball became lodged in rife
gun, and the cannoniers were driven from the
parapets by shower of schrapnel, mounted the
parapet alone, and worked manfully to ram ii
home, regardless Of the danger to which he was
momentarily exposed.

q At an informal meeting of the directors
Of the board Of trade held last evening, we un-
deTstand that one J. J. Richards made q haT-
angUe in which he denounced this paper as
secession sheet" and proposed that it should
be suppressed by mob violence.
If this wretch will only himself lead such

property but that this shall be the last mob with
which he will ever have anything to do.-Chi-

New YORK, July 29.-The Norfolk core.
spondent Of the Herald states that "Thers has
been considerable comment in regard to vessel
loaded with salt being allowed TO leave tha. port
for the Nsnsemond river. The contTsband cargo
was covered by regular pass from the superior
officer. understand It is clear that the salt was
intended for the rebels at Richmond, whatever
may have been the representations which Sc
cured the pass. 1t is quite possible that some
body has been deceived in regard to the salt, as
well as to the permission granted 10 ladies' with
unexplored baggage to take the same route u
the rebel capita"

Confederate War Vessels.

The Washington correspondent Of the st.
Louis Republican pretends to be fully posted as
to the efforts the Confederate government is ma
king to get up a navy. He says:
Merrimac No is now lying at the Tredegar
iron works, Richmond, receiving her armament.
She is pierced for six guns, some of them to be
one hundred pouaders, which are already cast at
the iron works bat she viii not at present re-
ceive her full complement of guns, because the
water at Richmond viii not float them. She is
expected to be equal TO, if not more effective,
than her old and larger nsmesake Another small
iron plated gunbOat is also building. They can
not, and it is not contemplated they should, pass
the obstruction at present; but they are expected
to contribute largely to the defense of the capi-
ial, should our feet succeed in getting within
shelling distance. The two are the nucleus Of
formidable fleet, which the government de-
signs building at Richmond, and which are in
tended st some future time, to pass the obStruc-
tions during high water, and contend for the
supremacy on James river. This plan supposes
the ability of the Confederetes to hold Rich
mond for some time to come; and should they
succeed in defending it against our fall cam
paign, they will certainly execute it, and meet
US in the spring with formidable feet on James
river.
There is also some talk Of the government
Being about to commence building mortar YES
sci clad with railroad iron, on an entirely new
plan, at Charleston. They regard Charleston as
safe from attack for another year at least, and
intend to make the most of her secure harbor.

HDQRS. ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
Tuesday, July l9, 1862 {

DR.. Williams, who has been a prisoner at
Salisbury, North Carolina, for several months,
who arrived on Saturday, having been uncon-
ditionally released, states that for ten days after
the battle in front Of Richmond 1000 rebel
troops passed through that town on their way
to Richmond, and more were on their way. The
doctors window overlooked the railroad and
depot, and gave himA good opportunity to as
certain what was going on there. They came
from James Island and EdistO, ca.
Among other facts the doctor ascertsined that
IL 900 troops were at Charlottesville, waiting
transportation TO Richmond that 10000 con-
scripts had been raised in each of the States of
Tennessee and Georgia since the 5;h of July,
and a proportionate number in other extreme
Southern States. He heard the adjutsnt of Gen.
Goodwin, who commands the Post of Sauls-
bury, who had first come from Richmond, state
that the adiutant of Gen. Hill told him that the
rebels had $4,000 troops engaged in the battles
of the seven days.
He was accompanied by DR.. Stone, who was
taken prisoner at Bull Run, and who corrobor-
ates his statement SO far as relates to movements
of troops on their way to Richmond. They
passed long trains of empty cars on the way
South If their statements are true and there is
every reason TO believe they are, it shows the
rebels are stalking their all in this State by con-
centrating within its borders an overwhelming
force.
The boats to-day brought down sick and
wounded from Richmond, leaving about 700 yet
to come.
