GREELEY's LEcTyRE IN WASHINGTON.
MIR. Greeley's lecture on Friday Of last
week, was immensely attended. The
President and Secretary Chase, with Sec
rotary Cameron's family and nearly halfof
Congress, were present. Mr.. Greeley
boldly proclaimed that the real object Of tho
war should be the destruction of slavery
Whenever he declared this to be '1he one
sole purpose Of the fight" he was veheme-
nently applauded; as ne was also when he
cited the declaration of Andy
johnson that "rebels had no right to own
anything" and pronounced it to be the de-
nunciation of q patriot and the wisdom Of
q statesman.
The sympathy Of the audience showed
that as far South as Washington, the pop
ular opinion was in harmnoy with the opin-
ions of the lecturer.

A STRIKING ExHIBITIoN.-The n Z.
Post notices the striking fact that the same
steamer which a few days ago brought the
news Of the death of Prince Albert, also
brought the news Of immense war prepa-
rations going on in England, Of troops and
guns sent to Canada, and the most hostile
feelings towards Us in England. Yet,
when the news was published Of the death
Of the Queens husband, every vessel in
New York harbor hoisted her flag at half
mast, and every flag hoisted in the city
displayed the same mark Of respectful con
dolence with ruler and a nation who
were supposed at that moment to be fore
ing upon us a most unjust war.

unexplained the party in the boat were fired
on by some twenty Or thirty men, and slmulta-
neously the party on shore were attacked and
ali taken prisoners.
DISPATCHES we're received in Washington yes

under command of Gems Mcdowell and Banks,
reporting all quiet.
Official reports from New Orleans state that
several vessels Of the Federal fleet have ascen-
ded the Mississippi IS far as Vicksburg.
The Southern version Of the affair at Nc

They repulsed the attack Of the Federals under
Gen. Schenck, causing heavy loss; one report
SAWS, five hundred killed and wounded.
Southern accounts Of the engagement at
Farmington claim great success, the Contede-
rate casualties being few, while the Federal loss
was very heavy The Federal troops were drl-
ven from their position, and some few prisoners
taken
The advices from Corinth indicate that a

From the Department Of the Shenandoah we
have the statement that the mountains are In
tested with bands Of guerillas; that recently
some twenty nine hundred Confederate cavalry
have been disbanded and re-organized for guer-
lila warfare, and that one Of these bands, num-
berlng some forty men, occupied a cave some
four miles from Rectortown Gen. G6ary, it is
said, undertook to surround the cave aforesaid,
and capture it's inmates. Arrangements were
secretly made for the purpose; but when the
project was put into execution, and the cave
invested on all sides, the discovery was made
that il had been vacated the preceding day.
Some idea of the increased magnitude ofthe
financial transactions Of the i. S. government
consequent upon the war, may be gained from
the statement that the aggregate Of receipts
and disbursements over the counter of the
treasury, exclusive Of the balance on hand at
the commencement Of the month Of April,
1861, was only $3, ,OO7, $50 81; while the same
items for the corresponding month Of l662reach
the sum of 1881, l65, 8l6 81, or more than ITO
times as much as for the same month last year.
A dispatch published in a Richmond paper
states that Gen Butler had arrested the con-
