killing and wounding every one in the
vicinity In another battery 500 poun

Eek m ember of Congress Kilgore, of
Indiana, Is here in connection with Dan
Voorhees, and Niblack, in reference to
tie Meredith Convention, which meets
next week. kilgore makes no secret
that the object of the Convention is to
defeat Judge Ortiz and Mr.. Julian"
The above paragraph is copied from
the Washington specials of the Cincin-
natl Gazette, and we are assured by a
gentleman who is on intimate terms with
Judge kilgore that it does that gentle
man gross injustice; that he went to
Washington on private business, and his
visit is in no way connected with the
proposed Johnson State Convention.
We are sure that Judge Kilgore has
enough reliance on himself to get along
without the advice of Niblack or Voor-
hees, and that he would as soon be caught
taking counsel of Forrest or Basil Duke,
on political topics, as from Voorhees,
We think that the Gazette correspon-
dent has been imposed upon by those
from whom he derived the story tele-
graphed to that paper We have great
ly mistaken the gentlemen whose names
appear to the call for johnson State
Convention, if they affiliate with Cop
perheads or apply to them for advice

WASHINGTON, May 20.
Some six weeks ago Gen. Howard
recommended to the President that where
practicable some officer in each of the
Southern States be designated as Depart
mcnt Commander and Commissioner of
the Freedmen Bureau, in order to bring
about more harmony of action between
the military and the agents of the Blu
reau. The suggestion was adopted at
once with respect to Mississippi, and or
ders have just been issued for carrying
it into effect in Alabama and Georgia
and both the Carolinas. Gen. Swayne
will probably remain in Alabama, Gen.
Dillson in Georgia, and Gen. Strong in
South Carolina. Whether Gen. Ruger
will remain in North Carolina is not
known.
Under the recent order of Assistant
Quartermaster General Charles Thomas,
the officers of the Quartermastcr's De-
partment in this vicinity, have withdrawn
the public funds in their hands from the
National Banks here, and deposited the
same in the Treasury.
The receipts of customs during the
week at the ports of New York, Phila-
delphia, Boston and Baltimore, amount
ed to nearly S3.250 900. The receipts
from internal revenue during the week,
amounted to over SO, 800, 900
One hundred and ninety-six patents
