From Washington.

WASHINGTON, Sept. ~.
9. G. Harris, a relief agent of the Sanitary
Commission, who was captured in the Shenan-
doah Valley in June last, returned from Rich
mond last night.
Gen. Clough, Military Governor of Alexan-
dria, has forbidden, under the penalty of ar
rest, the taking of an informal vote for Presi-
dent of the United States, as was designed by
some OF the citizens. The reasons for this or
der are, that in community composed so
largely OF antagonistical elements of soldiers
and disloyal citizens, the unresisted and illegal
expression of the sentiments contemplated, is
apt to create disturbances of the peace, and
engender feelings of bitter hostility. Besides,
he says, Alexandria is fortified military post,
and subject to military control; that Virginia
has no voice in the election of President, and
such voting is calculated to create condition
OF things desirable to be avoided.
Drafting was resumed in Washington to-
day. 71lF

Swindling operation attempted by Sub
stitute Brokers.

Two substitute brokers named o. &. Grant
and Samuel Fowler came from Dover, in the
freight train Monday night, and brought a
weak, sickly-looking lad named Osgood To
dispose Of to the highest bidder. Yesterday
morning Grant appeared at the CITY recruit-
ing office with a sett of enlistment papers made
out in the name of John Tyler. aged 10
years" He stated to the Committee that
this was young man that he brought from
New York to enlist on the quota of Portland,
ana as he had been to considerable expense
IN bringing him here, the recruit was willing
10 allow him $780, One of the committee
TOOK the papers and saw the recruit. He
stated that he wanted to pay this man Grant,
Sloo, and ne would take the rest of the boun-
" S9O0 himself, accordingly the 500 and $25
recruiting fee was paid to Grant. When the
member of the committee went in to pay the
bounty to the recruit, he was followed into
the room, by man who represented him
self as the Uncle of the recruit, who stated
that he was to take his money to his sister at
South Berwick. The committee man con-
cluded not to pay the money just then but
wait until afternoon. At that the pretended
uncle was very indignant, and seemed to con-
slider it as an imputation on his honesty, and
stated that he was a gentleman, and that
Mai. Rollins and many other officers named
would testify to his character, &c. He was
told to go about his business till the relation
ship was investigated and he left. Upon having
conversation with the boy it was assertained
that his real name was Osgood, that he be-
longed in Dover, N. H., and had mott been
in New York; that this Sam. Fowler was a
substitute broker in Dover, and he and Grant
had induced him to leave Dover, but he did
not know for what purpose, till he found
himself in the morning in Portland. They
told him to call himself John Tyler, and say
that Fowler was his Uncle, and let him take
the money to carry home to his sister. The
boy was evidently of weak mind and appeared
to be under restraint from those two brokers.
Upon being assured that they could no.
trouble him he agreed to have the balance of
his bounty sent to his mother at Dover,
Upon Capt Doughtys return,-he investigate
the case, andsthe pretended Uncle Fowler and
Grant being in the entry he ordered their ar
rest and detention till they paid back the
SIPS which they soon disgarged, and the boy
was discharged and sent home to Dover.

HORSE THIEF ARRESTED Last Friday
morning fellow arrived here on the boat
from Boston, bringing with him fine mare
and handsome buggy, which he offered to sell
for $3.50. City Marshal Head, suspecting
from the low price for which the team was Of
fered that 1t had been stolen, followed the man
and arrested him with the team near Morrills
Corner. The fellow was quite indignant at
being arrested, and threatened the Marshal
with all manner of lawsuits. He was, howev-
er, taken to the lookup. He gave his name as
c. W. Park when first arrested, but on being
searched at the lookup receipt from the
steamboat Company for freight was found, in
which his name was called G. w. Joel. This
