President johnson to order general jail

SIR have the honor to report that at
daylight yesterday, at Irwinsyille, sur
prised and captured jeff Davis and family
together with his wife, sisters and brother
his Postmaster General, Reagan; his Pri-
yate Secretary, Col Harrison Col John
son, Aid-de-Camp on Dayis's Staff; Col.
Morris Lubbock, and Lieut. Hathaway al
so several important names, and a train o
five wagons and three ambulances, making
most perfect success.
Had not most painful mistake occurred,
by which the 4th Michigan and lst Wiscon-
sin came in conflict, we should have done
better. This mistake cost us two killed and
Lieut.. Boutle wounded through the arm in
the 4th Michigan, and four men wounded
in the lst Wisconsin. This occurred Just at
daylight, after we had captured the camp.
By the advance of the 1st Winconsin they
were mistaken for the enemy.
[ Ireturned to this point last night, and
shall move right on to Macon, without wait
ing orders from you, as directed, feeling that
the whole object of the expedition IS ac-
complished
It will take me at least three days to reach
Macon, as we are rs miles out and our stock
much exhausted hope to reach Hawk
insyiLe to night.

The NEW PRESIDENT of the United States,
Hon. Andrew johnson, is in the ffty-sixth
year of his age. His family consisting at
present of his wife, two sons and two
daughters, are residing at Nashville, having
been driven from their homes in East
Tennessee. Charles johnson, third son.
while acting as surgeon in the army, was
thrown from his horse and killed about two
years ago. Judge Patterson, a son-in-law
of the President, also lives in Nashville, and
Colonel Slower, the other son-in-law, was
killed on the 18th of December last, while
leading the 4th Tennessee loyal Infantry
in the battle in front Of that city, between
the forces OF Thomas and Hood. Mrs

The REToRT COURTEOUS. The Secretary
of State instructed Mr. Adams, our Minister
to the Court of st. James, to further
demonstrate with the British Government
against the continued fitting out of pirates
IN English ports to prey upon American
commerce, and he accordingly addressed Earl
russell on the subject, who replied:
cannot refrain from observing that Her
Majesty 5 Government have been far more
successful in preventing breaches of neu-
trallty with regard to the fitting out of cru
lsers to take part in the civil war in North
America, than the Government of the United
States We're in preventing the fitting out of
ships-ofwar to aid the South american
Republic, In their revolt against Spain.
which, however, then stood in the relation
OF a central authority resisting insurrec-
ton.
Whereupon Mr.. Adams placed the Earl
horS dat combat as follows
Whatever may have been the deficiencies
of the United States In the instance alluded
to, compensation therefor has been made 10
Spain, and her full release has been given
under the sanction of her hand to a solemn
treaty Whenever her Majesty Government
shall acknowledge itself prepared to perfect
the. parallel, the example may be cited
against the United States but not till then.

WASHINGTON ITEMS.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l2.-The President to-
day has general reception, admitting, with
out distinction, all visitors having business
with him. His health, as we'll as that of his
family, is excellent, although the incessant de
mand upon his time by visitors, in addition
to his regular duties, are so exhausting as al
times to almost quite PROSTATE him with fa.
tigue. The rush of the public to the Execu-
tive Mansion is without cessation, and great
portion of the business laid before the Presi--
dent, by it's insignifcance, is more annoying
than the thoughtless parties presenting it can
conceive. ass Gi1

The Deputy Commissioner of Internal Rev
