It has been currently reported that NO new
National banks will be authorized. This report
is premature, as will be seen from the following
sfiicial communication,
TREAsURt DrPARTMENT,)
OFFICE COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY, J
WhsHIkoToN, December ., 1884.
To the Edfiort Of he Evening Post:
notice In the financial article of the ESepino
Post of the LIST instant the following item:
The Comptroller OF the Currency gives notice
that no more new National banks will be au-
thorized, but that old State banks can be still
converted into National banks" The Comp
troller has given no such notice. In view OF
the facts that State banks are being rapidly or
ganlzed under the National Currency act, and
that In the Eastern States there Is no deficiency
but rather an excess OF banking capital, he has
considered 1t to be his duty to discourage, in
many Instances, now organizations, and in
more instances the increase of the capital of
those already in existence. 1t is the aim of the
Comptroller to introduce the National bank
note circulation without adding 10 the present
imitation, but 1t is not In his power to prevent
new organizations, nor is II his desire 10 do so
In places where the legitimate business Of the
country seems 10 require additional banking
facilities. H. McCuLLocH.

Gen. Wilcox Demands the Release Of High,
Private Roger A. Pryor

The Richmond Wig OF the afternoon Of De-
cember has dispatch in which 1t is stated
that Gen. Lee has demanded the surrender Of
Roger Pryor. II appeared that Pryor was to
be made Of some consequence In order TO show
the world that the "Y ar KEGS" have been guilty
of another breach OF the laws Of war. But Il
seems that 1t was Gen. Wilcox and not Lee who
took action In the case. Lee thinks Pryor Is OF
such little consequence that he denies the i'm
parchment in the following dispatch TO the
Wig Of Dec. 8:
PETERSBURG, Dec. Seen. Lee did not de-
mand Roger A. Pryor's release. Gen. Wilcox,
In front OF whose lines he was captured, sent q
statement in regard TO his capture TO General
Grant, and asked his release.
Gen. Grant referred the application To Gen.
Meade, who endorsed upon It that Pryor was
captured whilst violating the orders OF both
armies, and as retaliation for Captain Bur-
bridges capture by US, and could not be re-
leased.

NAsHvILLs, Dec. IA flag OF truce was
sent in by Gen. Hood yesterday, which was
received By our pickets on the franklin turn
pike. g..
The bearer had q letter from Gen. Hood pro-
posing an exchange Of prisoners. Gen. Thomas
declined the proposal, for the reason that the
prisoners we captured have been sent north.
Generals Milroy and Rosseaui are at Muir
freesboro', which Is well garrisoned and de-
Tended against any rebel force which may
attack It. Yesterday body Of rebels attacked
block-houses Nos. Q and z, near Murfreesboro'.
They were gallantly fought by the garrison,
and soon a body of troops sent by Gen. Milroy
from Murfreesboro arrived, who attacked the
rebels with such effect that they were driven
of In confusion, losing six pieces Of artillery
and q number Of prisoners.
Matters at the front to-day are more quiet
than usual. No artillery that can be seen has
yet been placed In position BY the rebels.
Hoods headquarters are said 10 be at Brent
wood, six miles south OF the city, on the Frank
lin turnpike.

The PRMTm's Strike In this city has come
10 an inglorious end. All the newspapers have
now secured their full complement ofcomposi-
tors, and since noon to-day there has been
rush Of the strikers 10 return TO the situations
they so foolishly len; but in most cases they
were too late, their cases being already filled.
We learn that large number OF members Of
the Printers Union, being convinced Of the
inutility and injustice Of Its arbitrary attempt
70 control the different offices, have taken meas
ures to withdraw from the organization. The

The Richmond Enquirer and the New
York Incsndisry Plot.

hork lnceuuinry fiOt.
The Richmond Eaqiarr of Saturday last has
an editorial article on the late fires In New
York, ridicullng the affair, and concluding as
follows;
"Of course II was q rebel incendiary plot.
Did not they fire on Fort Sumter, where tloated
the 'Old Flagl' A morality that does not re-
strain violence TO tie emblem Of the best Gov
ernment,' ETC., etc., will hardly be proof
against the sin Of burning hotels. Nothing can
be clearer than the proof Of the completely Of
Mr.. Davis In the burning or attempts TO burn
some half dozen hotels In New York. We have
never read anything more truly 'Yankeeish'
than this whole. We are very glad TO see that
all the Southern refugees are required 10 regis
ter themselves. II Gen. Dix will hang them
he will do service TO our cause. A set Of cow
ardly sneaks who have deserted their country
are not above burning hotels. We hope Gen.
Dix will hang every mothers son Of them"

Tn. KSaea.tiea OF Fr.nEi,n.

The Nashville Tsass says tho rebels fought
fortously, but were resisted and whipped back
with . ooolness and steadiness worthy Of the
best troops In the world. They held their own
and never finched. About midnight our troops
were ordered to fall back upon the line In the
bitches Of brentwood, and the work Of evscu.
sting Franklin was carried out deliberately
and In perfect order. Here the rebeliious sym-
pathy ofsome OF the citikens manifested itself
unmistakably, for no sooner had our forces
withdrawn than the citizens fired large frame
building In the town as n signal, II is believed,
70 the rebel forces that the town was evacuated
The rebel troops Immediately pushed In and
occupied the town, while their advance line of
sklrmlshsrs followed our troops as they with
drew TO Brentwood.
NcIDEsTs.
Our soldiers In hospital are mostly wounded
In the face, hands, or arms, as Is apt to be the
case with men fighting behind earthworks and
in riaepitS. Some OF the wounds are very
bad, but the msjority will soon heal, although
for the present painful. The endurance and
fortitude Of the sufferers is astonishing. One
young man, who had not yet attained his ma
jority, said, as the surgeon was about 70 begin
ever you think best; and II die write home
that the boy died soldering" We pray that
the gallant lad may not die, but live 10 see the
glorious redemption Of the country on whose
altar he poured his blood.
81 know what you are doing, boys, but IL
don't hurt," said fne stalwart-looking man,
whose right arm had Just been smputated be-
low the elbow.
Rebel prisoners told our men that Hood made
them . speech the other day at Columbia, In
which he assured his soldiers that our troops
were completely demoralized, and would not
fight; that all that was needed 10 capture our
whole army was TO push on to Nashville, when
II would Surrender without resistance. Hood
assured his men that our troops would make no
fight at all between Columbik and Nashville.
Gen. Cheathsm's corps seems 10 have been
set In the front Of the battle to be slaughtered.
Nearly all the prisoners taken belonged To his
corps, and those Of Stewart and Lee, Cheat
hams taking precedence in the point Of losses.
1t appears to be the policy Of the rebel leaders
to put their Tennessee troops where they will
be killed of as fast as possible.
