MILITIA CoMMUTATIoN.-Unde the law
to organize the militia, every citizen in the
county is required to be enrolled and unless
belonging to volunteer militia company is
required to pay four dollars per annum, COM
mutation money. Those who pay the COM
mutation mouey will be the last class to be
drafted, when draft is made to fill up vol
unteer militia companies, and when drafted
the money will be refunded. Those who
fail to pay the commutation three months
before the draft is ordered, will constitute
the first class to be drafted. The money is
to be paid to the County Auditor who is
also authorized to issue exemption papers
on the certificate, made under oath, of any
respectable physician.
Many members of what is now termed
the "Flat Foot Militia" are rushing to the
Auditors office to pay their Communication,
or secure the necessary exemption papers
under the law. Blanks for the purpose have
been prepared by the Auditor,and his Clerks
are kept pretty busy filling them out
for the multitudinousc class who are not eager
for the fray.
The total number Of National Guards in
camp yesterday, asreported to the Adjutant
Generals Office last night, is thirty-dpe thou
sand, with forty-three companies to hear
from. U

Especial TO the Times J


WASHINGTON, May IA dispatch was re-
ceived to-day by the Government from
Fortress Monroe, stating that the rear of
Beauregard's army passed through Peters
burg yesterday morning. His force is esti-
mated at eighteen thousand to twenty
thousand.
Nothing of note transpired at the front
to-day. The pickets of both armies extend
up and down the Rappahannock and Rap
idan.
A considerable force is reported at Fred
ericksburg throwing up more earthworks
on the heights.
The rebels are reported as withdrawing
from Madison Court House, and concentra-
ting in front of our left and center. One
division Of Longstreet's corps, according to
deserters, is at Hanover Junction as a re-
serve.
On the same authority, Lees strength is
stated as upwards of 100000 men.
Rumors prevail that Gen. Banks is super
ceded by Gen. Augur.
Facts i'll possession Of the Congressional
committee to investigate affairs in the New
York Custom House, show that an enormous
trade is still carried on between that city
and rebeldom.
Worlds Spccial.l
Messrs. Gooch and Wade, of the commit
tee on the Conduct of the War, returned to-
day from Fort Pillow, and called on the

made as to the barbarities and cruelties
there are fully cOrobOrated.

of the Bonds, which will be found in our

ing from the money article in the New York
Herald of Saturday:
The ten-forty loan is now being absorbed
at the rate of about million of dollars
day. Its success thus far has been greater
than attended the disposal of the tive-twenty
bonds when they were first put OH the mar
ket. and it Is anticipated, when monetary
affairs become little more settled, that the
new loan will command as it deserves, the
direct attention of all persons who are seek
ing safe and profitable investments for their
capital.

The Giddings Case in Congress

The Abolition majority in Congress, in its at
Tempt to expel Mr.. Long, has relied greatly for
justification on the case of Hon Joshua r. Gid
dings, who. il has been repeatedly alleged, was
expelled from the House of Representatives for
an obnoxious expression of sentiment. The
Rochester Union reviews the true history OF that
aff.ir, which puts quite different light on the
subject:
Mr. Giddings, Of Ohio, was not expelled from
the House of Representative for the cause al
legged. or for any other cause. He was not ex-
PEELED at all. In lS4l 2 our Government
Daniel Webster being Secretary of State and
Edward Everett, Minister TO England-was en-
gagged in a very delicate and threatening contro-
very with that OF Great Britain. growing out OF
the case of the Creole. That vessel left Rich
mond. Virginia, for New Orleans with cargo
Of tobacco and negroes. The latter rose and
killed n man named Howell, and wounded the
Captain and several of the crew. They then
directed the vessel into the port of Nassau. N
p, where through the action Of the British au
thOrties many OF them were lost. Our Govern
ment held the To be a clear one tor iudemni
fication. and while the question was pending, Mr
Giddines. Oh the 2lst OF March. le42. submitted
series OF resolutions in the House oi
representatives, declaring against the posi-
the Creole had become a very exciting topic ol
discussion, and may be readily imagined. the
introduction OF Mr.. Giddings' resolutions pro
duced the most intense excitement in the House
but before action could be taken them. they
were, amidst the confusion. Withdrawn by the
mover. Thereupon Mr. Bolts, of Virginia. the
same gentleman who now straddles the fence in

The Garfield Forgery.

The Cincinnati Gazette publishes the substance
Of .he statement of Mr.. HAYS, pronouncing the
letters purporting to be from Messrs. DAVIS and
EcKLEs forgeries, and remarks:
1T appears by the fact that Rankin was heard
from at Bragg's headquarters, that the letters
were duly honorsd."
A contrary conclusion would be far more rea-
sonabIe. II the forged letters had been
''duly honored" RANKIN would have
returned in safety, but as he did
not, the trick. to use a mild term
did not avail him. RANKIN, as we stated in our
exposure of the forgery. had three times been
within BRAee's lines in the character Of spy,
hence he had no need of letters Of introduction.
His object. rs he told his friends here. in the
forgery was to secure the influence of BREcKS.
RIDGE in case the purpose of his visit or his char
acter was suspected. The fact that he has not
been heard from since three days before the battle
of Chickamaugs leads to the presumption that
he vas arrested and punished as a spy. and
the letters he relied upon proved to
be of DO service whatever. The rebel leaders are
more hostile to the Northern Democrscy than
they are TO the Abolitionists- They are fight
ing for Independence. not for the restoration
of the Union. Such being the case. they well
know they bave no hope Of recognition from
Democratic Administration. while they be-
Heve snch a result probable II the Abolition
lists continue in power. Letters from SUMNER
CHASE or WILSON would be treated with respect
compared with similar missves from Democrats
and the forged letters Of RANKIN is evidence ts
the point.
