WASHINGTON, August Col. O. L. Ba-
ker has returned to Washington to-day
from the West, bringing with him and
lodging in the Old Capitol prison sixteen
persons whom he arrested for counterfeit
ing and circulating notes of the denomina-
tions of fifty, twenty and ten dollars, and
of fifty cents. He also brought with him
the plates, eleven presses, paper, ink, and
dies for forging twenty-five cent metallic
pieces, the latter to be circulated in Mex
leo and other foreign countries. The man
ufactory near indianapolis was most ex-
tens;ve institution An entire family con-
s;sting of six or seven persons were en-
gagged in the printing and trimming of the
notes, which are all good limitations of the
genuine. Branches existed at St. Lonis
Covington and Nauvo !, III. which are now
suppressed, and their principals and en-
p oyees are in prison. While travelling
hither, one of the guilty parties, although
his legs were fastened with irons. made bis
escape from Car while in motion. and, it
is said, was killed by the fall
1t is said that large quantity of the bo-
gus paper has been secured, although much
OF the manufacture has found its way into
the hands of the soldiers in the West
Agencies for its sale and circulation had
been established in various localities.

patches and explanations In cur columns.
10 sum mp the whole, the news at present
writing Q.so a. N. Aonday,) Is to II q. m. Of
Saturday morning. Our army WAS then rest
ing on the battle field Of Charlottesville,
DOW twice baptised in the blood of patriots.
The crossing Of the river took place On
Wednesday. The enemy gave opportuni-
ty for our forces to form, and then
dcll upon our army in force Two days ter
rife fighting resulted In Gen. Grant holding
Its ground while the foe withdrew lcaying
the field and his wounded in our hands. The
contest was:terriblc. Eight Thousand wounded
OF our army. tell Of the work Of heroes. The
enemy wns not in sight, and another and
decisive battle must be fought further on.
1t will not be long delayed. The wounded
were being sent buck to Washington. Vast
stores Of forage were being sent forward,
and Gen. Grant will lose no time In follow
ing up his advantage.
Advantage it certainly is, to hare thus with
. stood Lees onset and beaten of bis legiona.
Well done Army Of the Potomac! The hearts
OF the people which have almost stood still
With the suspense Of the momcntous hour

Lave reason to thank God and take courage
for the cheering aspects Of the pres

arms SO seriously menaced Richmond.
Never before'has our foe in Virginia been set
to oppose and thwast 50 comprehensive
Tlan. The enemy 8 strength has always been
most felt in Lis first blows and these, haylng
failed, and our forces not only haying main
tained their ground but preparing to advance,
lend 10 the hope Of full and complete SUCCESS.
But let us reserve e1ultation and maintain
tLat attitude Of patient expectancy which
will best prepare us either to celebrate vic
tory. or to repair defeat. Great events hang
on tic Issues Of the week now opened. The
rebels are being assailed by powerful armies
in two remote points Of their domain. With
our success in both operations, the war viii
not be finished, but its ending will have be-

giving that moral strength and security to the
rulers of this small kingdom, in whose iudcpend-
ence they all take a lively interest, which only
such a solemn recognition can give-that in nine
teen years, no pecuniary demand made by foreign
agents against this government. after a hearing
OF both sides, has ever been found to be Just
that the former King Kamehameha Ill. and the
late King Kamehameha w., were Sovereigns of
extraordinary ability, enlightenment, humanity
and love for their subjects, and that our present
Sovereign King Knmehameha V. (may God long
preserve him. has had much experience in all
the Departments of the Administration and, it
may be safely predicted from that superior adj
vantage, and from his well known talent, sound
Judgment and 6rmness, wilt prove himself to be
more than equal to any Of the four preceding
Kamehamehas,
Therefore, we present to the world as great
moral guarantees for the security of life and pro-
perty as any nation Of the world. Our islands
possess all the elements of land, soil and climate
necessary to be a state of large population and
great wealth. What We want is LABoR-LABoR.
Let us get labor, either by coercing our idlers to
labor or by importing laborers in large numbers
and then, as the Hon. Judge Robertson said,
foreign capital will flow in upon us in an abund-
ant stream.
What else prevents an increase in our foreign
and domestic trade-a great increase to the
Kings revenue-and q much wanted relief to
his subjects from personal taxation, which at
present. weighs too heavily upon their scanty
means?
