WAsn1sc1os, Oct, ., 1862.
Dr. William Henry B1is5aue, formerly Of
Cincinnati, and three others from Wisconsin,,
have been appointed tax commissioners fas
South Carolina, and are here Whiting final in
=tructiurs before sailing for Port Royal. It
is understood in ecr.e quarters that they are
to proceed to open offices and assess t3xes for
!he whole taxable property Of the State. If !
planters through that part OF the State under
rebel control come for 1ard and pay 1hc:r !
1axes, all sill be well. II not, the commits. |
s;oners will proceed to sell their estates for !
taxer, and in the event Of their being no bid |
de1s at ratce sufficient to pay taxes, will for |
fit them to the government. II this plan
really be adopted, It is Of course but another |
Lame for coniscation.
Gen. Viele, military governor OF Norfolk,
was in town to-day, and had long interview
With certain members Of the cabinet.
Forty prisoners were captured and paroled
by Sigers cavalry at Aldie to-day. Several
loads Of bacon and N ambulance we're also
taktp. There is no rebel force at Aldie OF
Middleburg.
The court Of inquiry il ordered on General
Morgan, whose evacuation of Cumberland Gap
is ceneured here.
Gen. Banks, after an inspection Of Sgels
ccrrs, highly praised its appearance. The al
lsged reason for the sma1lness Of Sigel's and
H-irtzelnan's corps is that Mcclellan draws
every new regiment to himself Alter that
process ceases, these corps, It is promised,
shall be built up like those with McCiellar.
There is some foundation for the report that
Wed is to sell out. the Albany Journal to
Dana, late Of the 1fi5une Negotiations have
commenced, but it is doubtful now whether
they will be brought to head.
Secretary Wells returned the Portland Pc
t.tion tor the reinstatement OF Commander
Preble, just removed, with a sharp letter de-
| among the pcti toners.
| Among the visitors to General Hooker WIS
| the Spanish minister. TIE French Minister,
Who is out Of town, sent through friand a
complimentary message,
The amount Of the daily receipts OF postage
currency has been doubled. Forty-rhree
Thousand dollars worth reached the treasury
to day. T~o-thirds Of all will 70 to Eastern
cities, and half thu other third ia consumed
here. Very little goes West.
