with hogs and -four, we're precipitated into

New YORK, Dec. 4.-Serious disturban-
ces occurred in South Amboy, N. j., this
week, on the part of the strikers from the
employ of the Camden and Amboy Rail
road. Government and other freight was
delayed and railroad and other business was
stopped. For two days mob law reigned
supreme.
On Wednesday tho Sheriff; with a posse
of 80 men and a military company from
Trenton dispersed the mob and arrested q
number of them. All is quiet now and the
operations of the road are resumed.
AWashington special to the Post says:
Dispatches from Mesde'e army represent
that everything is quiet to-day. -
Government has ordered the sale Of all
the confscated lands in Virginia, South
Carolina, Florida aud Tennessee on the l9
of January. The sale will be peremptory
to pay the direct tax of these States.
The Post says the New York Sub Treas
urer received yesterday $30,OOO0OO in le-
gal tender notes by by transfer from Wash
ington Several transfers also in legal ten
der notes will probably soon follow from
other Offices of the Department, and no ap-
pllcatlon Is likely at present. 10 DO haue py

the Government as the deposits in the
Treasury have recently declined from the
maximum of 81 900, 900, 900 to about $1,000,

der the act of July IL, 1862, his reserve of
10000 900 legal tendencies. Should the
necessities of the public service imperative

ed to any further issue of currency, both
on account Of its inevitable effects i, ad-

cause Of the corresponding augmentation it
would produce in the prices of all ether

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The Star, under
the head Of "The Army of the Potomac
and its hesitating Generals" says:
So long as our army continues to be
guided by its present counsels in the field,
it is new clear that twill fail to command
the public confidence. Though the move
ment amounted only to Reconnaissance in
force, its purpose was certainly to give Lee
bsttle wherever found. There can be no
mistake in this fact, though il is now sought
to be denied. We know further, that the
season for active operations under active
commanders in this section has not passed
over, as is being represented by more or
less newspaper correspondents. If Lee isre-
lying upon continuation Of the chronic
hesitation that that has effected the eoun
sells of General Meade, and ventures to rein
force Longstreet considerably from his own
army, which he has yet time at least to at
tempt, Government will promptly seek 10
make him pay dear for his temsrity, as our
army of the Potomac is as ready to move at
this moment as it ever was.

Navy Yard this morning from Charleston
bar on Tuesday evening at o'clock. She
brought back the Marine Battalion, com.

Lieut. Vert reports that Gen. Gilmore
still continued to throw shells into Charles
ton at the rate Of 20 per day, and it was
evident that they were doing considerable
damage, as the shells were seen to burst
At night all the inhabitants had been NOV
ed to the rear Of the city. The firing on
Sumter had ceased and Gen. Gilmore was
turning his attention to the forts inside the
harbor.
A terrific fire was kept up on Fort John
son on the reception of the news of Grants
victories. On Thursday our army and navy
fired grand salutes, and soon afterwards the
rebel batteries opened fire, which was Wig
orously going on when the Massachusetts,
left.
The rebels had heretofore kept hospital
flag flying from the Moultrie House, aud Of
course, our forces respected it and avoided
firing upon it, but few days ago the reb
els commenced tearing down the Moultre
House and revealed to our forces formida
BILE battery which had been erected behind
it while it was under the protection of TIT
hospital flag.
No flag now floats over Sumter and only
an occasional shot is fred from its ruins.

VOCAL INTELLIGENCE

MR. LAMB yesterday introduced a bill in

other instrument Of writing is in Dixie,
his handwriting may be proved as If he
were dead, and with the same effect. This
action was found necessary, - quite num-

witnesses for parties here, before and after
the commencement of the war, are now be-
yond the Federal lines ihiiAOjaasa
Oneinstance in question,is that Of Charles
Marshall, Esq, who was transported into
Secessla. He was one of the two sutscrib-
ing wstnesses to the last will and tesla
msnt Of John Simpson, deceased. Of course
he is now unable to appear in our courts,
and it is therefore necessary to have wit
nesses to prove that his signature to the
will is genuine.
