NEW York, November 2.-The Her
Ild'S Washington special says it is now
we'll known that the negroes in the South
are organizing and arming for some pur-
pose which is not peaceful, and it is also
known that some district commanders
permit them to arm and have furnished
them with equipments. President john
son has referred the facts in these cases
to the head of the War Department, and
it is probable that be will increase the
military force in the South.
1t is stated that gen. Grant refuses the
application Of the Southern railroads to
extend the term fixed on for the pay
ment Of their Indebtedness.
Gen. Howard will recommend that the
Freedmen's Bureau be discontinued as a
separate institution when the law ex-
pires.
jefferson Davis coppsel made no reply
to the letter regarding the trial. The
case will be called at the next session Of
the Court.
A special to the Herald, datod October
80, says Gsribsldi's camp is at Castle
YuIbeliers, five miles distant from Rome,
andrthat be has under his command
three thousand soldiers, who are well
armed and have plenty of provisions.
The General has no artillery except two
brass guns, taken from the Papal forces
during the fight at MOnterondO. They
have no tents, and there is very little
discipline maintained, and the rear is
ungGarded. Garibaldi's headquarters
are in fullview Of Rome and there are no
Papal troops between him and the city.
The soldiers of the Pope, who have been
gradually and steadily falling back for
some days, have retired within the line
Of Qualifications of thecity. Before the re-
tiremeDt from the field, they burned all
the bridges over the river. The Roman
peasants residing in the neighbOrhOOd of
the contending forces take no interest in
the progress of affairs; they are engaged
at the plOw and tending their tiOcks on
the plain the same as usual. GaribaAdPs s
men do not interfere with them. Eight
men of Garibaldi's army are to be exc
cuted tomorrow, by sentence OF court
martial, having been convicted of thiev-
ing at MonterOndO. The men of the
force are very enthusiastic in their hopes
as to the result Of the movement on
Rome; but the weather is very cold
during nights, and this lessons their
patriotism and endurance not a little.
Recruits come in at the average Of six
hundred daily. Arms and provisions are
had In large quantities from the province
Of PeOni. There has been no actual en-
gagement since the fights at Yiterbo and
Monterondo. The priests fought bravely
at Monterondo. After the battle, Carl
baldrs officers begged him to shoot at
once all the prisoners taken in the
action, but he refused promptly and
with determination.
The French have not arrived at Rome
vet. SignOr AcceOli was not killed at
ViterbO, as at first reported. GaribaldPs
sons, Menotti and Reccatti, are both in
the camp with their father. They all
sleep on the floor of an old monastery.
Gsribaldi will not advance nearer to
Rome until he has 10000 men at least
under his command. He is to day en-
gagged in making an examination OF the
ruins Of the bridges destroyed by the fire
of the Papal troops in camp. The Gen
eral generally retines at about O'Clock
in the evening, and rises at 3 in the
morning. 1t is said that be intends to
occupy Montemaroe Immediately. Two
thousand Papsl troops well differed and
handled in the field, could destroy Carl
baldrs force by assault on the
rear of his position. Members Of
the Insurrection Committee are here
consulting with Gsribaldi. The General
regards it as an act sf madness to attack
Rome with the force now under him.
The Italian troops posted on the from tier
are In fine condition and advancing
TERM, NEAR ROME, October 3l.-All

restoring order.
