addition Of the emancipation features. In

that nearly all private holders have "soId

results of the battles near Richmond are
the immediate cause of this panic in the
money market. Recruiting is now going on
rapidly, and as our armies are swelled, pub
lie confidence will be restored. The st.

We have to report considerable excite
ment in the money market to-day, caused by
reported kilograms of an advance in gold To-
II per cent. premium in New York. These
may be true, but we have no information OF
the cause, which must have been entirely
unexpected there, as We end By the New
York papers that the balance of coin in the
New York banks increased over million
dollars last week over and above the exports
and on Monday last some of the banks were
large sellers of coin at ten per cent, having
fixed on that premium as good figure a.
which to realize some of their surplus

The President Visits Mcclellan.
NEW YORK, July IL.

NEW L OHks July IL.
The Tribune says the Presiden. returned
to Washington last evening. Nothing spe-
eial has transpired as to his action while
with Gen. Mcclellan. Our letter from For
Monroe says he went to see for himself and
to learn what changes if any were needed
All was going on satisfactorily; the troops
were we'll rested, and ready to man for an
other fight. The new position is impreg
nable and the roads to Richmond, nineteen
miles by land, dry and favorable.
The Burnside reinforcements have all
gone up the river. They are in fine health
aud spirits. splendidly disciplined and eff
cient. Gen. Burnside is an intimate friend
of Gen. Mcclellan, aud will be next in com
mand.
Another correspondent learns that on the
arrival of the President at Harrison's Land

itary gentlemen visited him on board, after
which the President and the General held a
private conference for about half an hour.
They then proceeded in an ambulance to
Gen. Summers headquarters, when they took
horses and visited the iutrenchments. The
President briefly addressed the soldiers.
He said he had come to see for himself and
to know the situation of affairs, and that he
should go back satisfied. It was said they
had been whipped. It was not so. and new
er would be. He knew the men he saw
around him would prove equal to the task
before them and never give up without 60
ing into Richmond. He had been unable
to sleep for anxiety, but after what he had
seen and heard he should go back to Wash

From ,he INDIAN Ezpedltion.

1 writing from Grand river, Cherokee Nation
on the 9th, gives an account of skirmisl
which took place at Locust Grove, Chero.
kee Nation, between some of the Kansas
Ninth and Tenth and 200 of the First H.
dian regiment under Col. Weer, and 20C
rebels under the notorious Stanwaite. The
writer says:
We have taken log prisoners, and killed
several. We also took large number oil
horses and ponies, about l 800 head of cat
tie, thirty six loaded mule teams, and 9
large quantity of camp and garrison equip
age, also 500 stand of arms of all descrip-
tons.
The rebel camp was situated upon the
summit of hill, in the midst of thicket
The resistance was feeble.
Col. Clarkson, ex-postmaster of Leaven-
worth, surrendered to Geo. ]. Clark, Divi-
sion Quartermaster of the Expedition. The
rebel defeat was complete.
The number of prisoners has since been
increased to 100, who have left this after
noon together with large amount of con-
traband property Ter Fort Scott, in charge
of an escort of fifty men detailed from Com
pany F, Sixth Kansas, and number of
mounted Indians.
The same correspondent gives an account
of another fight in the Nation, between Col.
Richie and the rebel General Rains:
Col. Richie, with part of his Indian
regiment-in all 500 men-had fight with
a greatly superior secesh force under Rains,
no less than !, 400 men. The rebels we're
beaten and put to flight. AT the same time,
the Colonel captured a portion of their bag
gage train, and large amount of cattle and
horses.
At the present time Col Ritcnie has with
him 800 Indians of his own regiment-~the
sd-and one company of the Sixth Kansas
Cavalry, under command of Lieut.. Phillips.
They have over 200 prisoners, captured in
battle.
Col. RitcLie's Indian regiment is now
full. The entire complement of men have
been mustered into the ranks. The appli
cations continue as strong as ever; over 500
Indians have personally asked to be receiv-
ed into his command, since the regiment
has been made up.
Everybody who has seen them, is agree
ably surprised. And their Colonel speaks
in glowing terms in regard to them. They
make good soldiers, easily controlled, and
they conduct and deport themselves well
generally. The Colonel is constantly with
them, devoting his entire energies to accom-
plish what very few persons thought pos
sible-make good soldiers out of the orig
inal material. He has succeeded remarka-
bly, well.
Col. Richie has reliable information that
John Ross was about to join the expedition
with 1 800 men under his command.
In addition to the information contained
in the above letters. the Conservative learns
from Mr.. North, who has just arrived from
the camp, that Col. Solomon, of the Ninth
took forty prisoners. There
were about 400 Indians, Cherokees and
Osages, who came into our camp. They
were mounted and armed, and came in with
white flags and carrying their guns with
the muzzles down.
About $50 negroes. the property of rebel
half breeds, are now on their way to Fort
Scott.

The Black Regiment.

Gen. Hunter seems to have taken in gooc
part the modification of his proclamation
He did not grumble, but kept on with his
recruiting duties. On the ninth of June
Wickliffe, of Kentucky inquired, in the
House of Representatives, whether Gen
Hunter had raised a regiment of fugitive
slaves. In his reply, Gen. Hunter says:
''To the first question, therefore, reply
that no regiment of fugitive slaves has been
or is being organized in this Department.
There is, however fine regimgnt Of persons
whose late masters are fugitive Rebels
men who everywhere fly before the appear
ance of the national flag, leaving their SER
wants behind them to shift for themselves. -
Gen. Hunter speaks as follows of the sue
cess of the experiment of organizing the
negroes into regiments:
1.-The experiment of arming the blacks,
so far as have made it, has been a COM
plete and even marvellous success. They are
sober, docile, attentive, and enthusiastic,
displaying great natural capacities for ac-
curing the duties of the soldier. They are
eager beyond all things, to take the field and
be led into action; aud it is the unanimous
opinion of the officers who have had charge of
them. that in the pecrliarities of the climate
and country they will prove invaluable aug
iliaries, fully equal to the similar regiments
SO long and successfully used by the Brit
ish authorities In the West India Islands.
''1n conclusion, would say it is my hope,
there appearing no possibility of other rein
forcements, owing to the exlgencies of the
campaign in the Peninsula, to have organ
lied by the end of next fall, and to be able
to present to the Government from 48, 900
to $4,000 of these hardy and devoted SOL
diers. Trusting that this letter may form
part of your answer to Mr.. Wickliffe's reso-
luton,
l have the honor to be, most respectfully,
Your very obedient servant,
