GOVERNMENT CrRREycr.-Upon inquiry at ths
Treasury yesterday, we learned that on the
last day then reported, forty-eight thousand
dollars OF Treasury notes of the denomina.ioni
Of ones and twos, were printed. Every effort ID
made to press the work, but the difficulties are
great. Each note receives five distinct i'm
pressions, and an interval for drying Is necss-
sary after each impression. The whole amount
Of Treasury notes below the denomination Of
five dollars, authorized by law, is thirty five
millions Of dollars. 1t is easy to calculate when
this amount can be printed, With proper at
tention to the safeguards against counter
feitiug.
Day before yesterday, the Treasury received
from the printers thirty.Ave thousand dollars in
the email postage, or change currency. For
several days before, the amount received had
ranged from sixteen to twenty two thousands
These small notes require only two impressions
in printing them.
As to the Treasury notes, they are as yet
scarcely visible 10 the general circulation Of
the country. At the West, they cannot be
properly said 70 circulate at all, being bough,
and sold at premium, for remittance to the
East The issue so far made, has produced nc
imitation Of the currency, or at any rate, moi
enough to arrest the tendencies to depression
in real estate and other fixed property, result
ing from state Of war. We believe that II /
becomes financially expedisnt for the Govern
ment to increase the amount Of Treasury note
to five hundred millions, it may be done withou
muci hazard Of disturbing values and prices.

THE POsI1ION.

The Star Of last evening says:
As Gen. Mcclellan did not attack th,
enemy yesterday, II is believed that be regard
himself as being the complete master Of th,
situation. Else why permit them 70 continue
to receive accessions to their force In Mary
land"
We do not know that the military authorities
are controlled by the policy here indicated, viz
that Of allowing the enemy TO get on this sid'
of the Potomac, for the purpose Of more effec
tually destroying him. That Is, however, Z
very commonly received view Of the case.
A correspondent Of the Pbilsdelphia Pres,
represents that the citizens Of Poolesville and
vicinity received the rebels with open srms
and hands, gladly supplying their wants, and
hailing them sa deliverers. According to thi,
correspondent, the occupation Of the rebels
there had none Of The aspects Of raid, but
looked rather like the recovery Of their own
country. They endeavored to give it that as.
pect at Frederick, and did %, 30 far a. procla.
nations Co. And, in fact, they probably
treated the people there as well as they do the
people in Georgia or Virginia.
Our Information from Pennsylvania 10, that
he people in what may bs called the exposed
regions, are cool and ready for 6ght. They do
not as yet admit that they sre unable to cope
with the ragged, WORKOUT and poorly armed
soldiery Of secession, or that the only chance
Tor satsty is iu flight.
The later reports Of last evening Indicate
that the rebel force which marched upon Ere
derrick, has turned west and is in possession OF
Hagerstown, their supposed intention being to
get back 10 the Potomac at Williamsport, or
some other point above Hsrper's Ferry. That
road is clear for them, 30 far az is known here,
so that it does not distinctly appear how the
operation Of "baggins" the rebels, which is 60
much talked Of, Is to be performed, unless 1t
be in some tuch way as the Irishman ''sur.
rounded" three prisoners taken on certain oc-
casion.
The present look Of things 10, that the move.
mont into Maryland was mere raid Of fam
shed and ragged soldiers in search Of supplies,
Just as the movement Of Gen. Kirby Smith
into Kentucky is now understood to have
been. Such thugs can have no permanent
effect upon the result Of the war, although,
for the time being, they will inpirit the enemy
and damage Us abroad.
The worst feature about them Is the readi.
ness with which the public seem to gulp down
Tue most improbable and even impossible ex
asgerations Of the numbers Of the enemy.

RxsOutlOn OF soldiers.

A correspondent Of the New York Tri-
bune, writing nom the Kansas Department,
says: E
Some days ago six men were shot BY order
OF drum head court-martial. They were
accused of murdeting two of our soldiers in
the most brutal manner. The evidence was
conclusive, and they were condemned with
out a dissenting voice. A detail was made,
and they were led out to gopher mound,
half mile from camp. A grave was dug,
over which they stood. At the flrst volley
four isll dead. A private soldier then ster.
ped forward and with his pistol dispatched
the other two. They confessed the murder
before Trey died. We have four more in Gus
tody charged with robbing and numbering a
Union man in Missouri. They will proably
share the same fate.

The sIlunlIon a. Romnsr.

The Wheeling Intelligencer of Monday
says
From the best information we can gather,
the facts are about as follows Upon learning
that the rebels were advancing upon Rom.
ney, Gen. Lander, who is now in command,
fearing flank movement, fell back towards
Cumberland on Friday afternoon, having
previously telegraphsd for reinforcements.
The Fifth Virginia Regiment left Parkers-
burgh on Friday for Romney. The First
Virginia Cavalry left Clarksburgh for the
same point, and all the forces in this part of
the State were being pushed forward to
Cumberland as rapidly as the railroad could
carry them.
1t was understood on Saturday night that
seven or eight thousand Ohio troops would
cross the Ohio river at Psrkersburgh and
Bellaire, with two or three batteries Of artil-
lery, sll for Cumberland, and the people are
momentRrily expecting to hear Of a fight.
The great body Of the troops under Jack
son, who were marching upon Romney, are
said to be from Manassas, and it was thought
at Cumberland 70 be bold and desperate
stroke upon the part OF the rebels, to take
and hold both Cumberland and RJmney.

Il is announced BY one o. the foreign az

John Bright intends TO visit this country
fsr the purpose Of inducing our government
to rectity what be honestly considers to be

surrendering them to the care Of the British
Government. Although the cause Of this in

the action Of our Government iD,the Trent sf-
falf, jet We sinosrely hope that this true and

10 declare war against this country IN case
the Trent affair was not adjusted satisfae-
torIly to f" British honor" when almost ell
other public speakers joined with the pres.

ton Of some neutral power, and when the

John Bright in his clear and bold manner

wicked scheme Of embroiling these two
greatest commercial nations Of the globe in
an unnecessary and (ss It would bs) almost

ianand philanthropist be advocated referring
ths question to pesceful arbitration, rather
than rush into war to the certain destruction
ofprOperty and life. In thus standing. al
most solitary and alone upon this position,
IohR Bright has shown himself to be posses
Ssd Of the highest attributes Of a Just and
Non-hearted man. Mentally and morally
he towers like q giant above the dEarfsh

cruel and uniustihable war, s
