WASHINGTON, April 9.
An order has been issued from the Adjutant
Generals office in Washington, requiring all
records Of discontinued commands to be i'm
mediately forwarded to that Office where the
expense OF express transportation will be PAID
and officers who come in command OF places
captured from the enemy will collect and for
ward any papers left behind by rebels which
may be of public use or interest.
Official and late news from Chihuahua and
telegram from San Francisco of yesterdays
date show that there is not the slightest foun-
dation for the published report that President
Juareze is coming to Washington. He is at
the city of chihuahua and does not contem-
plate visiting here, having enough to do at
home.
About 400 deserters were brought to this
city this afternoon from City Point guarded
by detachment of colored troops. They will
take the oath of allegiance to- morrow, and be
sent wherever they may prefer. The prosi-
ton OF President Lincoln, as stated in the
Richmond Sentinel, to re assemble the Vir-
ginia Legislature at Richmond for the purpose
of authorizing convention to take back that
State into the bonds of the Union, interferes
with the government claiming to represent
that State with Pierpont as Governor, and its
capital at Alexandria. The Legislature at the
latter place, several months ago, having re-
ceived from the Secretary of State copy of the
proposed Constitutional Amendment to abol-
ish slavery, ratified the same by nearly q unan-
imous vote; and among other acts conferred
franchise for constructing railroad from
Washington TO Fredericksburg. The Pier
pont government contemplates an early re-
moval to Richmond; but the event to which
reference is above made does not encourage
the contamination of that design.

MISUNDERSTANDING Hall is closed for
brief season for repairs. This place of enter
tainment is susceptible of being made very at
tractive. The great want, particularly in
warm weather, is better ventilation. This,
with paint, paper, &C., would give it strong
hold Of the popular feeling, and we hope the
proprietors will see to it that no effort is
spared to make it worthy of the good playing
so often exhibited there.
Saturday evening a good company was
present to witness the performance, which,
though several of the company were not in
the cast of either piece, was very pleasant and
attractive. Mrs. Pike, in the "Cross of Gold, !"
was exceedingly felicitous and appeared to
fine advantage. Miss Bidwell was good as the
"Maid of Croisey," but better as Gertrude"
In the loan of Lover" She is a charming
actress, and, when the enunciation and the in
donations of her voice are little more under
the control of her will, she will make star of
no mean magnitude. Miss Langley had a
part on Saturday evening which she person
ated with pleasing effect.

Important Movement of the ViTgisiG Legis-
LGtNre.
WASHINGTON, April 9.
The Richmond Wing OF Friday contains
the following:
An informal meeting of the members of
the Virginia Legislature remaining Ia the city,
was held in the law building, Franklin street,
this morning for the consideration of the
proposition of President Lincoln, to reas-
semble the Legislature for the purpose of au-
thorizing convention to take Virginia back
into the bonds of the Union. The propos-
ition of the President was laid before the
meeting. A formal meeting was appointed
to take place at 4 o'clock this afternoon, to
which time the meeting was adjourned.
The Virginia Legislature adjourned on the
18th of March, to meet on the 29th of that
month They met on the 10th, but without
a quorum. According to the constitution, they
could under such circumstances adjourn from
day to day. This they did until Sunday last,
the day of the evacuation, when they held a
meeting in the evening and dispersed without
resolution. Some going off with the gov
eminent, and some leaving on canal boat
chartered for the purpose.
According to law the members now In the
city, are the only remaining legal representa-
tives of the State of Virginia.
1t is important to state that the Legisla-
tuee of 1865 is authorized by the constitution
to call convention for the purpose of settling
and adjusting the basis of representation. This
question Is settled, but convention called for
any other purpose is unimportant.
