there knew better ~ he what course was proper

SECRETARY wELLEs's POSITION.
The Intelligeacer insuaa.cs that Secretary
Weles j. opposed 20 tie election Of Gen. Hewley as
Governor Of Connecticut We have permission to say
tina. this m7uta.on is entirely untrue. Mr. Welles
decidedly supports tie locy OF the President and does
not regard Gen Hawey position ss anagonistic with
L. He, therefore, believes that tue President, and
every member ofhs Cabinet desires tie success OF the
old Union organization with its candidate including
Gen Hawlcy and the defeat Of tie aahWer party and
al me candidates that represent il.

Rebel sentiment and many ogtrages are daily perpe-

SECRETARY M'CULLOCH's ORDERS.
We have authority for stating that in all the
sales Of gold and bonds and in all purchases made by
Secretary McCuloch he has directed Assistant Treas
arer Van DYKE to execute these orders and has
occasion designated any nrn firms or any person to
whom Mr. Van Dyke should entrust the execution Of
ts orders. Consequently all charges Of favoritism on
grounds Of bestowng patronage upon his relations are
gro1adess. Furthermore he has no relations 10 any
Arm or firms in New.York City, where all these trans
actions haze been had.
