Waterbury, the Rebel Spy, Caught
M Inst

New YORK, Dec. 2l.-Morning papers
have nothing from Sherman.
The Herald's City Point correspondent of
the 18th says: The notorious rebel scout
Scrgt. VIM. L. Waterbury, of the Sd North
Carolina regiment of cavalry, was mortally
wounded on Thursday last. Waterbury
has been long known to our authorities as
vigilant, troublesome spy, with bravery
enough to venture into our camps and
sagacity sufficient to avoid detection and
elude pursuit. He has infested the country
between James river and our left beyond
Petersburg all summer. All attempts to
entrap him have hitherto failed. Small
parties have been sent in his pursuit, but he
could never be Overtaken or identified. But
few weeks ago he came to the Wells house
one morning before sunrise, and seriously
threatened the capture of safeguard; this
within half range of three Union forts, and
said to be within Mimic range of Gen.
Mesde's headquarters. 1t appears Water
bury came to our pickets dressed in Union
uniform, representing himself rs one of our
soldiers, and requested to be directed to his
regiment. Contrary to his expectations. a
soldier was sent with him as guide. On
the way he induced the guide to halt to
drink, when he seized his musket and made
him follow as a prisoner. At night he fell
asleep while guarding the Uni6n soldier,
who in turn seized the musket and shot
him.

News From Es"azii-'Chc Case of
the FlOriGia-T'he War Between
Brazil and aIraguay.

New YORK, Dee. 2l.-We have Rio Ja-
nero dates OF the 10th ult. Little or notll-
ing is reported of the views and designs OF
the Government of Brazil attendant on the
seizure of the pirate Florida in the harbor
of Bahia. The Official Gazette of the Goth
Of October says that by Il French packet
the Brazilian Government had sent full di-
rcctions to its Minister Of Legation in WASH
ingtoli, to demand proper satisfaction for
the conduct of the commander Of the Wa
chusett. No documents are, however, pub
lishrd.
War continues between Brazil and IRA
quay. Gen. Flores appeared before Monte
video with 1900 men, but retired without
aSsaulting the city. The blockade of Mon
tevidco was ordered by Brazil. The Bra
lillian Minister having been notified that
foreign vessels to Uruguay would be search
ed for cOntraband of war, England denied
that there was Il war, Brazil being merely
engaged in suppresslng rebellion. SO
that Gen. Flores is not a belligerent, but
merely rebel, in the eyes of the power
which recognizes jeff. Davis as a belliger-
cnt.

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED sTATEs-
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS, BY the act of July 4th, 1864,
entitled IAN act further to regulate and
provide for enrolling and calling out the
Nationa. forces, and for other purposes" it
is provided that the President of the Uni
ted States may, at his discretion, at any time
hereafter, call for any number of men as
volunteers Tor the respective terms of one,
two or three years, for military service, and
in case the quota of any State thereof, or O;
any town, township, ward of a city, pre-
cinct, or election district of a county not
so sub-diyided, shall not be filledwithin iif-
ty days after such call. then the President
shall Immediately ordera draft for one year
to fill such quota or any part thereof which
may be untitled; and,
WHEREAS, BY the credits allowed in ac-
cOrdance with the act of Congress, on the
call for 100000 men, made July 18th, 1864,
the number of men to be obtained under
that call was reduced to 2S0,000; and,
WHEREAS, Operations of the enemy in
certain States have rendered it impractica-
bic to procure from them their full quotas
of troops under said call; and,
WHEREAS, From the foregoing causes but
100000 men have been put into the army,
y
July IS. 1864, leaving deficiency on that
call of 250000;
Now, therefore. I, Abraham Lincoln,
President of the United States of America,
in order to supply the aforesaid deficiency,
and provide for the casualties in the mill
tary and naval service of the United States,
do issue this, my call for 100000 volunteers,
to serve for one, two and three years. The
| quotas of the States, districts and sub-dis-
tricts under this call will be assigned by
the War Department through the Bureau
of the Provost Marshal-General of the
United States; and in case the quota, or any
part thereof of any town, township, ward
of a city, precinct or election district, or OF
a county not so subdivided, shall not be
filled before the 18th day of February, 1865,
then draft shall be made to fill such quota
or any part thereof under this cal which
may be untitled on said 10Th day of FcDru-
ary 1865.
In testimony whereof, | have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
| United States to be affixed. Done at the
City of Washington, this 18th day of De-
ceniber, in the year of our Lord, 1864, and
of the Independence of the United States
of America the S9th.

The Relations between Canada
and tIic United States.

QUEBEC, Dec. 2l.-It is understood that
Immediately after issuing the proclamation
in reference to the rebel Canadian raiders,
Major-General Dix dispatched coniiden-
tial agent to Canada. This gentleman re-
turned to New York satisfied that the Cam
adian authorities were taking every neces-
sary step to perform international obliga-
tions. The best understanding prevails be-
tween the Quebec and Washington Gov
ernments.
Mr.. Potter, the American Consul, is un-
well, and has gone to Wisconsin to recup-
crate. Mr.. Thurston, vice American Con-
sui, is also i'll.
The Governors proclamation offers a re-
ward for the re-arrest of the raiders.
QUEBEC, Dec. 2l.-Young and two other
raiders were re-arrested to-day at st. Fran
co.'s, l6 miles from Riviere Du Loup, on
their way east. 1t is thought all will be ar
rested. They were evidently making for
New Brunswick by different routes.

efficient police officer at the Depot in this
city, relates a curious story, of which the
following are the main facts:
Some three or four weeks ago, three men
took boarding at the house of Mr.. George
Frew in the Eight Buildings OH Town
street. After short stay, they paid their
bill and left, saying they intended to take
the cars and 90 north. Immediately. after
they were gone, it was discovered that they
had taken an overcoat, which did not belong
to either of them, from their boarding
house. The overcoat was afterwards found
under washstand in Barber shop at the
Depot.
Before the discovery of the overcoat, OFF,
Ger DE Witt arrested two of the men
Charles Anderson and A. IL. Baldwin. An
derson exhibited to the officer papers show,
ing that he had been regularly discharged
atNashville, as female soldier He also had
with him copy of a Nashville paper, which
stated that female, enlisted as SOL
dier, and passing under the name of Charles
Anderson, had been examined by an army
Surgeon and regularly discharged as a fe-
male. External appearances indicating
that Anderson was really a woman, the
twain arrested were released upon their
taking the cars northward.
Some time afterward, officer De Witt saw
Anderson pass down on the cars from the
north toward Cincinnati. Some two or
three days since, he came up from Cincin-
natl with fourteen recruits and took them
to Tod Barracks--himself heing also re-
crujt. Officer De Witt called on Major
Skyles at the Barracks, and told him what
he knew about Anderson. Mr.. Frew was
called and identified Anderson as tile man
who, nnder that name, had boarded with
him. Major Skyles and Officer De Witt
took Anderson to private room and ex-
amined him. They found upon his person
the papers discharging him from the service
as female. But they became satisfied that
he was man, though, when dressed, ap-
pearances strongly indicated the opposite
sex. His re-enlistment at Cincinnati was
of course held to be valid, and he was de-
tanned at the Barracks to be sent forward
to the front with the other recruits. Hna%s
