WASHINGTON, September 4-Before
leaving Washington, last night, Attor-
ney- General Williams addressed let
ter to, the Secretary of war, in the
nature OF request, to order the sta.
tton of United States troops at cer-
tain points indicated by him and
where the Southern outrages have
been the most virulent. This letter
was, to-day. forwarded by Secretary
Balkuap to General Mcdowell. com.
a:anding the Department. OF the South,
together with the circular issued yes
terday by the Attorney. General, with
instructions to SO dispose Of the forces
under his command os to insure the
strict enforcement Of it's provisions
and the protection OF both white and
black citizens in their rights. Score
tary Belknap says he intends to COM
rly strictly with the terms OF the
circular, but will not issue the order,
for the movement OF troops from the
Wax Department direct; but from time
10 time. ae information of outrages ia
communicated, will receive from the
Attorney General the localities wherein
the military is mast desired, and will
notify General Mcdowell to so appor-
ton his command as to meet the e1i-
gencies OF the situation AS they may
arise. There are now in the South.
ern States. exclusive OF Tennessee aud
Texas. four regiments Of the army,
with headquarters as;foliows: the First
Artillery at Charleston. 8. c.; Second
Infantry at Atlanta, Ga; Third Ia,
tantry at Holly Springs. Miss. aud
Eighteenth Infantry u. Columbia, s.
.. As the troubles are principally in
the middle portion of Alabama, tho
Red River country Of Louisiana aud
in Georgia, it is, more than probable
that General Mcdowell will ut once
issue orders changing the present sta
tions OF his. command to point which
will cover the localities designated.
The following is the distribution Of
the troops III the several Southern
States; three companies of the Second
Infantry In Alabama, six in Georgia

on account of the warm weather aud
