[From The National Intellgcncer Of July lstJ
Mr.. Chmse's Successor.

We understand that the President has
| nominated Ex-Governor David Tod, oi
| Ohio as the successor of Mr.. Chase In the
| administration of the Treasury Department
| In the present crisis, which more than ever
| demands financial capacity and experience
| In tie incumbent of this most difficult and
responsible post. We are not apprised OF
the peculiar qualifications he brings to the
duties of the position, though, II we may
Judge from our knowledge of his political
antecedents, we might deem it safe to augur
that, in nominating him to succeed Mr..
Chase, the President contemplates aradical
departure from the ''paper money" system
| of his late Chancellor of the EXchequer.-
Ex-Governor Tod, as an old Democrat is
well known for the zeal and pertinacity
with which he has uniformly resisted any
thing but metallic currency, and he car
ries his opposition to paper money" SO far
that on one occasion, when the compara-
tive virtues of this species, of currency and
of hard money were under discussion
i'm Ohio, he solemnly announced that if
there were not gold and silver enough
to furnish circulating medium
for the country he would pre-
fer to melt down all the iron pots in the
land and coin them into "hard money
rather than to make money OF any thing
milton of this determined preference of his
for metallic currency, however base, that
he is popularity known in Ohio as pot
metal David Tod" 1t remains to be seen
whether, on assuming the duties of his of
flee, he will discard the ''paper money" of
Mr.. Chase and give us "hard money" like
that which was current among the Spartans
in the days Of Lycurgus. If the war should
last three years longer at its present rate
of expenditures, and if Mr.. Secretary Tod,
in his addiction to ''metallic currency"
should insist on defraying its expenses in
pot metal, it is at least safe to say that his
administration of the Treasury Depart
ment, however economical, will be attended
with considerable rise in the price of Gu
linary utensils.
p. P.S.-After writing as above we learned
at late hour last night that Mr.. Tod, while
his nomination is yet pending in the Senate,
has, by telegraph, declined the proffered
honor, and the country will therefore lose
the opportunity of testing the novel vir-
tues OF ferruginous currency under his
administration. 1t remains to be seen up
on whom the second choice of the Presi-
dent will fall for this most difficult posi-
ton.

So all the Republican Members of Con-

Of War, and made to vote for the repeal of
the $500 Communication clause in the con-
scription law; ,and, this, after many of them

Congress.

The first session of the 3sth Congress was
brought to close at half past twelve o.
clock p. NJ, on Monday. the 4th, by the adj
journment ofboth branches. Little else was
done during the last month of the session,
than to devise ways to get ''the last dollar"
out of an already overtaXed people, and to
provide the means for putting ''the last
man" into the army. Let us be thankful
that Congress has at length adjourned-for
had the session continued longer, new
measures of tyranny and oppression might
have been found out and enacted into laws.

INCIDENTS AND REPoRTs.


An entire paper might be filled with in
cidents OF this eventful raid, but will give
only one or two. When Gen. Kautz reach
ed Reams's station and found so many OF
the enemy there, he sent Capt. L. w. Will
| Tiger, aid-de-camp of Gen. Wilson, with
dispatches to Gen. Meade, explaining his
| position and asking for succor. Capt. Wilt
| ger picked out forty men from the Third
| New York, and started at s o'clock A. NJ.
| He forced his way through the rebel caval-
ry and infantry, besides their pickets, and
| reached headquarters at twenty minutes
past ten, having lost twentyfour of his
men. While coming through the enemy's
country Capt. Williger picked UP resident,
who informed him that Early, that morning,
with two hundred rebel wagons, had gone
on a foraging expedition down the Staun-
ton country. The ,cdnt Of this necessary he
attributed TO the scarcity caused By lack OF
transportation since oar raiders struck The
roads.
Our artillery comprising twelve field pieces
and four mountain howitzers, tcds all cap
tued The gunners stood by, serving them,
till the last. The gunners of battery COM
manded by Lieutenant Fitzhugh, United
States army, fired their pieces until The enemy
acere tCithin fifteen PAGES Of them, when they
spiked their guns, mounted the battery
horses, and saved themselves. Everywhere
praise of these brave fellows may be heard,
and when all agree in awarding unanimous
distinction there must be some merit. The
caissons were destroyed, as was also the am
munition; the ,cdgons actich had been corrdled
,cere burned to save them from the fate of
the ambulances which were captured by
the enemy. Many of the ambulances were
filled with wounded, all of whom were
taken to Richmond. ~
The enemy, discovering our line of re-
treat, followed until the pickets were reach
ed, firing on any who happened to lag be-
hind. Reports are current that they shot
many ,ghona they took captive.
Thus ended this great cavalry raid. When
it is taken In consideration that Lee had
every crossing of the Weldon and Peters
burg railroad guarded, with the intention
to cut the expedition of, it seems as though
it were difficult to accomplish success.
