We understand that the sum of enc thou
sand dollars has been made up, and will be
given to any one who will apprehend and
deliver at Abingdon Montgomery's Jerry, the
supposed murderer Of Mr.. VIM. McDaniel.-.
For years past he has been infesting the
whole country between Abingdon and Bristol,
sometimes going as far. down the country as
Greene county, Tenn. He is somewhere in
the lower end of this county, and ought to be
found. He is not black, but dirk copper
color, about feet 10 inches high, and 25
years old The surest way TO catch him, will
hc to watch for him at night in those portions
Of the county where he commits his depreda-
tons. There are two other .negroes4with him,
both mulatees. one very large The large
one is about IS years old, the other younger.
They have all been seen in the neighborhood
.wilere the late murder was committed, aud
with due diligence may be caught.

The salt Procla nation.

The people of this part of the country have
been somewhat startled by the Governors
Proclamation, not only on account of the posi-
ton il assumes, but for the haste with which
it has been issued. It had been thought ard
expected that.the Governor would visit the
works and inform himself, and then Issue his
proclamation, and not first issue the procla-
nation and then inform himself Weare not
acquainted with the particular features of the
bill upon which the proclamation: is predieat-
ed, but the latter, in our view, sayors strongly
of the iron. We. give the proclamation in
another column, and invite particular atten-
tien to it. There are several clauses in it
that we fear will result in incaleulable injury,
and very much fear that no good at all will
be realized.
We may be dull Of comprehension, but it
strikes us that there is great injustice in the
position that whilst contracts with States and
counties are to be held inviolate, that con-
tracts with individuals are to be abrogated.

Lincolnss Visit to M,Clel1an's
Camp.

Several DAYS since we re-published from
Northern newspapers accounts of President
eLincoln's visit to the "army Of the Northern
Potomac and the review of the same by him.
self and General Mcclellan. It will be reco!-
lected that the reception of these high dlgn1-
taries-especially that of ssthe iatter-Was re-
presented as enthusiastic in the extreme, but
we were left to conjecture the Immediate &C.
casion of Mr.. Lincoln's visit. On this subject
the Northern journals, generally SO redundant
in particulars. were mute. And why honest
Abe should have torn himself from the de-
lights of the .sSoldier's Rest" to mingle with
the rsongrel tribes of McClellan's host, we
have only lust now been informed.
A gentleman of intelligence who left w ash
ington on Tuesday and Alexandra on We'd
nesday, arrived here yesterday evening, gives
a rational and satisfactory solution OF the
question On the receipt OF Llncoln,s eman@s
cipation proclamation, McClellan,s army was
thrown into terrible ferment which threat
ened to break into an open and general rot
The abolitionists and democrats were Instant
" arrayed in deadly hostility, the latter de-
clarine that if the proclamation was not with
drawn they would throw down their arms, or
if forced to use them; would turn The m against
the abolitionists for whose advantage and adj
vaneement the war was being prosecuted
All the efforts of their commanders having
failed to pacify the troops, Lincoln was tele-
'graphed for and set out at once for the army.
The success Of his mission is not definitely
known, but it was said in Washington that
notwithstanding many promises and. explains
tons made to the troops, he had not found 1T
possible to allay their excitement, and had re-
turned home leaving matters little better than
he had found them.
1t may be we'll to add that this statement Of
our informant is fully corrpborated by intelli-s
gence received at the War Department., and
there believed authenticated Examiner.

negro Regiments i'm Kansas.

A correspondent of the St. Louis Democrat,
writing from Kansas City, gives a description
of some ofGen Lanes volunteers, as follows:
. A detachment of Lone's new negro brigade,
zoo, arrived to-day at camp Lane,
near Wyandotte Bridge, in Kansas, opposite
this city. Their departure from Leavenworth
yesterday is described by an eye witness as
being novel in the extreme. The detachment,
ed through, the principal streets. singing

ludicrous and affecting scene occurred in the
leave takings Of the darkey women. girls and
old men. Tears, grimaces, grips, ivory, and

able, melancholy, wrathful style. One Grip
pied darkey, in gihbering a general adien,
admonished them thus: Show your pluck,
Africans: neber show your back to the 'sesh.'

--latest from New Orleans

The New York papers have adyices from
New Orleans to the 23d ult. General Sher-
man had command Of all the Federal troops at
Carroton, six miles from the city. The gum
boats were also lying there. A letter says:
The great excitement now IN our city-we
must always hare a great excitement, you
know. in these times-is that which is incl
dent to the near expiration of President Lin
coins sixty days for taking the oath. II
came hard, and was postponed by thousands
until the last moment; but cunctators are maxi
ing up for lost time, assure you. The Pre-
yust Marshal has been obliged to open a large
number Of subordinate 7hces, at which those
who, at length, have made up their minds that.
it is better to come ibt, the arrangement, can
be accommodated !; aud to day, the last day of
grace save one, has witnessed a scene that no
pen can adequately describe. The City Hall
ard the Custom House. the headquarters OF
all the military authorities, have been literally
besieged throughout the day, and will contin-
ne so to be during the whole of tomorrow, by
persons, male and female, white and black,
high and bow, rich and poor, native and for
eign, naturaiized and nnnatnralized, DESTROYS,
in the language Of thasinesitable eighth sec
tion," of returning to their allegiance" As
the Delta of this afternoon truly says, "the
bench and the bar, physicians. gentlemen OF
property and leisure and ladies of the highest
circles of responsibility. haze freely subscrib-
ed to that important document"
General Butler has caused it to be distinct
" understood that the law is to be carried in-
to execution to the very last latter. There is
a great deal Of property in this city that stands
in danger of the stringent requisitions OF the
act and as it now begins to look, even in the
eyes of the most creduious and hopeful, as if
the outlying bands of the guerrillas will not
be able to retake New Orleans before to-mor-
row night, the property owners have come to
the sagacions conclusion. that it is upon the
whole the safest plan to succumb to the neces-
sity they cannot easily, OF indeed, at all
eyade.
Nearly two full regiments have been raised
among the Greoles, and the regiments bro't
have been recruited and this is proof that we
have friends here, notwithstanding the denial
of Union men South: There would be more
of them if the Government could make their
rights more secure.
The losses in property and the sufferings,
are enormous. For example, the Soules, be-
fore the war, had an income Of $4,000 year,
and this is now reduced to mere living on
plain pork and flour.

VUANT1CO, NEAR va,
October 3, 1862.
Gentlemen:--On Sunday, last scouting
party of l6O Yankee cavalry, commanded by
a Major Lee, Of New York, surrounded the
village of Dumfries and searched for sick sol
diers, but found none They arrested Messrs.
VIM. f. McConchie and Newton Harper, for
merly of Alexandria, stole several horses,
and left for Alexandra. Mr.. McC. was re-
leased next day. Mr.. Harper was sent on to
Washington. The Yankees were piloted by
man named Stiles, from Fairfax, Thomas
| Smoot, of Occoquan, and Thomas Lamb. an
| old Yankee settler, two and half miles above
Dumfries. The Yankee settlers in Prince
! William, who professed sympathy with the
South last year, and made small fortunes by
| trading with the Southern soldiers, with few
exceptions, have proved spies and traitors to
! the Southern cause A number have left the
State since the last battle Of Manassas.
| On Monday last q party of Yankees landed
at Ship Point, under protection of threegnn-
boats, and proceeded to destroy the batteries
| and guns at that point. They have been en-
pleyed all the week blowing up the works at
Ship Point and Cockpit Point. Women and
| children were shelled and fred upon from
muslkets while driving up their cows. The
commander of the expedition reports to seere
! tary Welles a glowing description of this
|. 'guzlaat achserenae1st' Of the Federal navy. -
| According to this Yankee account, they de-
feated party of our cavalry told women aud
children, driving up their cows1 and blew up
the .sbomb-proof' batteries!
From information received through dihe-
rent channels from Washington, / am satlsh-
ed that Lincoln contemplates naya! attack

They are collectingea large feet of iron clad
and other gunboats, to be commanded by

When Gen. Lee first crossed into Maryland
the Yankee government were SO frightened
that they kept gunboat at the Navy Yard,
