Col. Ludlow says it is highly probable that
the Confederate Government will rescind their
order relating to U. s. officers, and also that
citizen prisoners will soon be released
An expedition which went out from York
town last Wednesday, has returned, having
been highly successful. The expedition was
in charge of Maj. Hall, and consisted of Cos.
B, D, and E, Of the 5th Pennsylvania caval-
ry, and several companies of infantry. They
were taken from Yorktown on the Thomas A
Morgan, and landed at West Point. From
thence they marched to the White House
where they captured rebel baggage train,
and also took large quantity contraband
goods, eea
Some ffty-thousand dollars worth were
found in the possession of one Jim Brown of
Baltimore, who is new prisoner on board the
U. s. gunboat Nashaska.
Brown stated that he had taken these goods
from Baltimore through Wilmington, Del,
Leaford, through Accomack, across the bay,
and up the Rappahannook.

the soldiers saw and knew their own strength,
and the weakness of the enemy. and were
deeply impressed with tbs justice of the cause
In his judgment we had exhausted Cancellation,
and there should be no peace, nor could there
be, until the rebels were content to receive it
as part of the Union.
His plan Of paying the war debt was the
introduction of free labor at the South, where
by labor would become honorable, and by
which more abundant crops of cotton could
be raised with profit at less cost than by
slave labor. ~ III
Cotton could be raised with profit at less
than ten cents per pound. We were now pay
ing SO or 60 cents pound for it; put a tax of
ten cents pound on cotton, thus bringing the
market price at 20 cents, and we have an in
ternal revenue from that source alone enough
to pay the interest on a war debt twice as
large as that we now have. Besides, by do
ing this, England and France, who have done
much to prolong the war, would thus be
obliged to pay large proportion of the
debt.
After some further remarks, in which he al
luded to the calumnies that had been cast up
on him, Gen. Butler concluded by presenting
to the Mayor, an elegant Confederate flag ta-
ken from the City Hall at New Orleans. He
gave it to Boston, not as trophy, but as
memento of the evils of secession.
Gen Butler resumed his seat amid the most
enthusiastic cheering.

There has been no fighting of moment since
last Monday.
The enemy were reinforced to the number

Our losses in the Yazoo will amount to q
500 or 5000.
The loss of the enemy is unknown.
A council of war was held on board the Tt
gress, Gen. McClearned's headquarters, on
Sunday. Com Porter. Gems. Sherman, Nc
Clearned and other officers were present. 1t
was determined that it would be folly to make
any further attack on Vicksburg with the
present forces; that the enemy received their
achievements too rapidly, and that there were
40 prospects of our side receiving reinforce
ments. Therefore it was deemed expedient to
abandon the attack on Vicksburg, and opel ate
against some other place.
A point of attack was decided on, but its
publicity is forbidden.
