The order of the War Department of
April 22d, 1864, directing all officers of the
Commissary and Quart9rmaster's depart
ment having public moneys in their charge
in the cities of Boston, New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and San francisco, not
to deposit in National banks but solely with
the Assistant Treasurers and Collectors, has
been rescinded by Secretary Stanton
upon request of Secretary McColloch,
except so far as it applies to New York and
San Francisco; and new order has been is
sued. giving such officers permission to de-
posit with any of the National Banks in
Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore, de-
signated as depositaries under the law
This is done that the large payments into
the Depositary Banks ON account of the
7-30's, which the Secretary of the Treasury
desires to have disbursed as rapidly as pos
sible, may not cmbarrass and disturb the or
dinary of the money market. The checks
drawn upon the Depositary National Banks
will pass through the exchanges without
disturbing the money market. The meas
ure is very satisfactory to the banks that
receive these deposits, and it is hoped here
that it will be applied to New York, where
the bulk ofthe money is received and dis
burSed.

Army Of the Potomac.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Information
from the Army of the Potomac shows that
our troops are in the best possible condi-
ton, and are ready to move at any time oc-
casion may require. Rumors continue to
prevail in camp that the rebels contemplate
the evacuation of Petersburg. r
On Thursday and Friday the enemy
along the center of the line were very
busy throwing troops from point to point,
at one time massing at one place,
and in short time at another, thus
necessitating the utmost watchfulness on
our entire line. Another account says that
all day Wednesday and Thursday the rebels
were in active motion in front of the 9th
corps. The camps were struck within their
lines and large bodies of troops could be
seen from our signal stations moving to and
fro. They kept up an unusually bold front,
at times completely swarming Cemetery
hill with men and frequently opening en-
our troops with cannon, which was prompt
ly replied to. 1t was believed they were
endeavoring to hide the evacuation of Pc
tersburg, from which all the people have
been ordered away, for the purpose of fall
ing back to their new line of works on the
north side of Appomattox.. river, with their
right resting on the Lynchburg railroad.
"A number of men of the 18th Wisconsin
were killed and crushed by falling trees
during the storm on Thursday night. Is.,
A heavy explosion took place on Thurs
day, which shook the boats on the James
and Appomattox rivers. 1t appeared to be
in the direction of Petersburg, and it was
reported at City Point that it was OCCASION
ed by an attempt of the rebels to blow up
Fort Hell, which had been previously evac-
uated by our troops, knowing that the reb-
els had undermined 1t.

The Flood at ROch ester and VII
cinitY.

ROCHESTER, March 19.-On Friday night
| at 8 o'clock the water in the river, which
had been rising very rapidly tor the past
two days, commenced pouring over the
western end of Main street bridge, and
| rushing down Front and Buffalo streets,
| filling all cellars and stopping all passage
| from State street across to Main street
bridge. The water continued rising rapidly
all night, and at daybreak on Saturday
morning had risen to such height
as to pour over the lower half of
Main street bridge. 1t washed around
Front street perfect torrent, tearing up
everything in its course. The water in
front of Reynolds Arcade on Buffalo street
was from five to seven feet deep. The
whole length of State street and Lake
avenue was covered to the depth of from
four to five feet. Front street was perfect
| river, as that was the main channel of the
water that came over the bridge. Business
in the whole city was entirely suspended.
At about 1890 O'clock the eastern corner of
DIR. BartOn's brick building gave way and
fell into the river. At 1:30 p. M. the store
of G. NJ. Hartwell, at Main street bridge,
went down and was soon followed by others,
leaving nothing but the front walls stand
ing. The New York Central railroad
bridge was carried off about 10 o'clock FRI
taken over with it has been contradicted.
At o'clock Saturday afternoon the large
bridge on the Genessee Valley road was
swept of, and part of it lodged against the
aqueduct.
The water this morning has fallen six or
seven feet.
The destruction on Front street is very
great. The water quilted out channel six
or seven feet deep its entire length. The
families residing on this street and others
in the vicinity were compelled to remain in
their houses from Friday night until this
morning. The back part of Oviatt's mill,
on Water street, was washed away. The
damage to this mill is said to be 100000.
A tobacco firm lost some fifty barrels of to-
bacco, which was washed out of their cellar.
A great many merchants who were in their
stores on Friday night packing their goods,
were unable to get out on account of the
sudden rise, and were compelled to remain
over night, and were taken out in boats ON
Saturday afternoon.
Report says that over half mile of tres
tie work on the Canandaigua road across
the Genessee river was swept away. The
dam at Mount Morris is also gone. Scott's
mill is submerged and the large warehouse
there swept away.
BUFFALO, March 19.-New York Central
trains commence running tomorrow morn
ing, passengers being transferred via An
drew's street bridge in Rochester. The
road is but slightly damaged. Government
trains will be sent via the Batavia & Ca
nandaigua line, which is but slightly in
jured, and will be all right tomorrow.

The New Issue of z.aO,s.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-The popular ap-
probation and rapid absorption of the
730 loan under the management of jay
Cooke, General Agent, has determined
Secretary McCulloch to make no change in
the character of the loan to be placed on
the market after the first one shall be dis
posed of. The arrangement heretofore
existing between the Department and the
Subscription Agent will be continued, and
the new series of 7-30's will date from June
l5 next and will consist of an issue of $780,
100000, payable three years after date and
convertible at maturity into 500 bonds,
at the option of the holder. Excepting in
the dates of issue and maturity, the new
series will be in all respects the same as the
current series, which, at the present rate of
subscription, will be taken up during the
coming week. ....
In addition to the arrangements which
have been made by the subscription agent
with Wells, Fargo & Co., for placing the
loan, through their Offices in California, Or
egon, Nevada and Colorado, special agents
are being dispatched to the Pacific coast and
to the South Atlantic and gulf cities, in
Guiding Beaufort, Charleston, Savannah and
New Orleans.
To prevent stringency in the money
market arising from the withdrawal of the
large sums. realized by subscription to the
7-30 loan, through National Banks and 9TH
er agencies. and the locking up of the same
in the Treasures, an order has been is
sued by the War Department, at the in
stance of the Treasury Department, re-
scinding the order of last year which pro-
hibited the disbursing officers from deposit
ing, without drawing direct upon the Ma
tional Depositary Banks in the cities of Bos-
ton, Philadelphia and Baltimore. By this
means violent contractions and fluctuations
in the money market so far as the Govern
ment's operations are concerned, will be
avoided, and increased ease in meeting
Treasury payments will be attained with
outmaterial disturbance to the other COM
mercial demands for currency.

Sheridan,s Whereabouts.

New YORK, March 19.-Sheridan is lost
sight of again. Last Wednesday he was at
the crossing Of the South Anna river by the
Richmond & Fredericksburg railroad, and
expected to turn up at White House for
supplies; but the Herald's City Point cor
respondent says a dispatch from
that point Friday states that he
had not made his appearance. Scouts
were sent out and the people in
that vicinity said he had an engagement
with Ricketts, rebel division, in which the
latter was worsted. This report was con-
firmed by deserters, and exchanged pris-
oners say Ricketts, division started out OF
Richmond last Sunday TO meet Sheridan.
Though not reaching White House at the
time expected, no fears are felt for his
safety

tinue.
Efforts are making at Richmond for the
organization of colored troops.
The following paragraps are from the
Richmond Whig:
MOBILE, March 4.-This city is strongly
menaced. General Maury issued circular
advising the people to prepare for the ex-
pected attack. He urges the non-combat-
ants to leave.
The Exchange Commissioner yesterday
evening received information of the arrival
in theeBay, of large number of prisoners
are expected here to-day. Major Cowail

ing 1000 troops entered the bay yesterday.
MOBILE, March 1l.-Fourteen vessels

early attack.
MACON, March 4.-The House of Dele
gates have adopted resolution requesting
Congress to repeal the conscription law and
| accept men from the State under officers of
their own choice, by forty-siX majority.
Lynchburg papers of Monday and Tues
| day bring us some of the details of the raid
| through the upper country, which, in view
of the fact that Sheridan has communicated
with Grant from Columbia, we conceive to
be purile to withhold, and therefore lay
them before our readers.
The Virginian says that the Yankee divis-
ion sent in that direction followed the
Alexandria road as far as Buffalo river,
burning the railroad bridge at that
point. Every bridge below Char
lottesville and Buffalo, distance of
more than 45 miles, has been destroyed
| and much OF the track torn up, and though
| the extent of damage has not been ascer-
tanned, the nearest approach they made to
Lynchburg was near New Glasgow, IL
miles distant, where small party of them
| burned the railroad depot.
