NEw YORK, June %.
A special 70 the Herald dated Washing
for mustorine CIT between forty and lily
thousand troops from the armies Of Cen
erals Moade, Hancock snd Logan. About
$4,000 Of those were effective, whose terms
of service 1rst expire viii be mustered out
from the army Of tho Potomac by regI-
mental organizations. All absentees be-
longing to such regiments will be IN sddl-
ton to this number and may swell It to
$4,000. HsncOck's veteran command will
be reduced to seven thousand. The army
of the Tennessee will lose fully $4,000.
General Grant and part of his staf left
here this evening, by special car, for
Philadelphia, and he expects to be absent
two OF three days Tho Generals report
will not ba completed as early as is stated
and is 10. likely to be delivered to the war
Department .R1lil near the commence
ment Of the next Congressional session un-
less especially called Tor by some exigency.
There will probably be scmo consider
able delay in the appointment of proyls-
ional Governor for South Carolina. The
delegation here do not all represent the
Uuionists of the State, the few there are
to represent. One who aims to be the CIV
or Of advices TO President johnson has de-
clared in Charleston that he wished the
Yankees had but one throat that he might
cut it Another declared that he would
burn bis house rather than 8 id Yam
kes should pollute it with his presence and
so on through the entire list. 1t is likely
therefore, that South Carolina will be SUI
fered to lie out in the cold for the present.
DR.. A. G.. Msckey, the newly appointed
Collector at Charleston has returned to the
city after his visit to West Point, and is
showing up this pseudo delegation in vivid
colors. He charges that the men eomprls-
ing the delegation now here, were original
secessionists. They admit it to be true and
attempt no concealment. Colonel Yates
Of the delegation, entered Fort Sumterim-
me lately after its evacuation by Major
Anderson and remained in the rebel SER
vice until the surrender of Joe Johnson
Others of the delegation voted and scted
As consistent secessionists throughout
They are now here acknowledging them
selves cefeRted and subjugated. They ask
nothing but pardon and early action IN
appointing civil officers. The State IS at
present without law and its citizens are
completely humbled. A fearful proportion
of them are literally destitute of all means
Of support. All manner Of crime is
admitted TO be increasing and the only
hope for public or private virtue is admit

The names of eX-COngressman VIM. w.
Boycs and Mr.. McIllily are among these
submitted By the DelegsAiep as certain to
give entire satisfaction t6 the State au-
thority. They disclaim all desire to in
fluence the Presidents appointment. He
disagreed with q majority Of South Caro-
linisns and declared for peace year ago.
MIR. McIlliIy rated against secession in the
outset, and, like Governor Aiken, held
sloof throughout the war.
There is evidently very little sympathy
between these delegates and Mr.. Mackey
whose loyalty is accepted by the North
without question.
The delegation is to have another hear
ing Saturday.
James N. Smith, Of Selma, Alabama,
has been appointed United States District
Attorney, for that State.
Hon. Richard Rusteed, Of New York,
was appointed Judge of the United States
District Court of Alabama, by Mr.. Lin
coin nearly year ago, and is expected to
assume the duties of his office at once.
The case of Henry G. Burnett of Ken
lucky, has been under consideration, but
no conclusion arrived at. He will proba-
bly, be sent TO his own State and tried for
treason
