With the appointment of Gen. Grant

of Staff, Gen. Sherman is appointed

of the Tennessee.
LIEUTENANT GENERAL GRANT.
Presentation of His Commission.
The President of the United States on
Wednesday afternoon formally presented
to Major Gen. Grant his commission as
Lieutenant General. The ceremony took
place in the Cabinet Chamber in the pres
ence of the entire Cabinet, Gen. Halieck,
Representative Lovejoy, Geu. Rawlins and
Col. Comstock of Gen. Grant's Staff, the
son of the General, and Mr. Nicolay. 1
Private Secretary of the President.
Gen. Grant having entered the room, j
the President rose and addressed him thus: i
" General Grant —The nation's appre-'
ciation of whet you have done, and its re- !
liance upon you for what remains to do in
the existing great struggle, are now pre
sented with this commission constituting
you Lieutenant Gen in the armv of the Uni- i
ted States. With this high honor devolves
upon you also a corresponding responsibil- '
ity. As the country herein trusts you, so, !
under God, it will sustain you. I scarcely
need add that with what I have spoken for
the nation, goes my own hearty personal
concurrence."
To which Gen. Grant replied as follows:
"Mr. President—l accept this commis
sion with gratitude for the high honor con
ferred. With the aid of the noble armies
that have fought on so many fields for our
common country it will be my earnest en
deavor not to disappoint your expectations.
1 feel the full weight of the responsibilities
now devolving on me, and I know that if
they are met, it will be due to those armies
and, above all, to the favor of that Provi- !
dence which leads both nations and men.' '
The President then introduced the Gen- j
cral to all the members of the Cabinet, af-1
ter which the company were seated and j
about half an hour was spent in pleasant
conversation.
—The rebels having no longer any !
object in aiding the copperhead sena- ■
tors of this State in their treasonable
doings, last week released Major Harry
Wbite of Indiana
Reported Interview Between Lee and
McClellan
An exposition in the Tribune of an
interview which took place near An
tietam between McClellan and Lee,
has created considerable feeling. It
was published in the Tribune that a
written communication had been sent
to the Secretary of War, by a cousin
of Lee, a Maryland Legislator, stating
that during the battle of Antietam
General Lee had his headquarters at
his house, that on the night after the
battle he sent a messenger into our
lines to General McClellan, requesting
an interview at his headquarters;
that General McClellan, accompanied
by some of his staff, rode that night
through the rebel lines, and had a long
O 7 O
interview with General Lee, who,
among other things, informed McClel
lan that his army was crossing the
Potomac.
The points corrected by the eorrespon
dent of the Chronicle, who signs his name
"F. W.," are—"l. I atn Dot a cousin of
General Robert Lee. 2. No interview
could have taken place between the par
ties during the battle of Antietam at my
house, as I live about ten miles from that
place. 8. The interview took place three
or four days afterwards, and was at the
suggestion of a mutual friend than courted
by either party. 4. At the time of the
meeting General McClellan was alone, and
General Lee came through the lines of the
United States Army under my escort, I
having received a solemn pledge of per
sonal safety from General McClellan for us
both. 5. The communication was not made
by myself. The interview lasted some
three hours, during a short part of which
time I was present.
The F. W. who informed the War
Department of the interview is found
to be a Mr. F. Waldron. He is in cus
tody at the Capitol, and will be brought
before the War Committee to testify
all that he knows. It is said that Mr
Waldron informed the Secretary of
War that during the interview General
McClellan was informed by General
Lee of the rebel army's retreat across
the Potomac. It is understood that
the War Committee will have every
person brought before it who is likely
to know anything concerning this in
terview.
It is difficult to know what to be
lieve of the above. But if true, and
not communicated to the President by
Gen. McClellan, a summary example
ought to be made.
New Hampshire Election.
Again the People have spoken ! The
election in New Hampshire has taken
place and our telegraphic despatches show
that the L nion candidate for Governor has
been elected by from six to seven thousand
majority. When we remember that so
many of her sons are in the army whose
votes, had they been at home, would have
gone to swell this unexpected majority,
this result may be regared as an over
whelming triumph. The New York World
and other Copperhead journals of the North
have been claiming a Democratic triumph
in New Hampshire as certain. The contest
has been waged with all the vigor which
that ejfete and treasonable party could bring
to bear. All the weary platitudes about
the vindictive Abolition crusade—the cor
ruption of the Administration—the use
less expenditure of blood and money—the
enormous burthens of debt fastened on
the country, the harhships of the draft, and
the blessings to be secured by entrusting
the trovernment of the country to those
disinterested patriots who go lor an
economical Government and a strict con
struction of the Constitution, were hashed
up for the benefit of the masses, but have
proved a signal failure. According to the
World the New Hampshire election was to
be the first of the series which, by Anti-
Administration triumphs, was to inaugu
rate the grand reactionary movement to
drive the true Unionists out of power.
Even many of our own friends looked for
ward to the result with apprehension,
never claiming more than a very meagre
majority if successful.
Ibis happy result has surpassed our
hopes or expectations, and we cannot but
regard it as an augury of success in the
greater contest for the Presidency in the
coming Fall. We commend it to the Cop
perheaps as first of the series.
Last year the vote of New Hampshire for
Governor stood thus, viz : Gilmore, Repub
lican, 29,035; Eastman, Democrat, 32,833; !
Harriman, _Union, 4,372. Eastman over
11 i3more, 3,798; Gilmore and Harriman over
Eastman, 574; no election. Gilmore was
chosen by the Legislature.
When we compare the Democratic vote
of iast year with its present hopeless minor
ity, and reflect that at the Presideetial
election the soldiers will also vote, we may
coLgratulate the country on the brilliant
prospect. The people are all right.
In New 5 ork on Wednesday, also an
election was held to vote upon an amend
ment to the State Constitution permitting
the soldiers to vote. It will be remembered
that the Legislature passed a law for this I
purpose last year, which was vetoed by
Gov. Seymour as unconstitutional They j
passed an amendment to the Constitution,
antl, submitted the amendment to the peo
ple, as required by the Constitution. The
election came off on Wednesday, and the
people, by an almost unanimous vote, de
clared that the gallant fellows who are
fighting their country's battles shall not
be deprived of their franchise by absence
JO the field. The soldiers of New York j
will therefore vote at the Presidential
; election, Copperheadism to the contrary
notwithstanding.
—Why do copperheads hate Metho
dists? Because the latter set their
heels on the serpent's head.
The Indian Bureau is taking pre
liminary measures for the return to
their own country of 8000 Indian
refugees now in Kansas.
It became necessary, on Friday,
to amputate the leg of Senator Hicks
to save his life, as mortification was
about to take place, resulting from a
remarkable case of erysipelas.
—Lieut. Col. Sanderson, one of our
officers recently released from Rich
mond, has been put under arrest at
Washington on charges preferred by
Col. Strcight that he had informed the
rebels of a plan for the escape of some
of our officers.
—The copperheads and rebels hate
Gen. Butler as like as two peas. The
Democrat alleges there is no chance for
exchanging prisoners under him, yet
last wek GOO privates and 48 officers
were exchanged.
—Hon. Jere. Clemens, of Huntsville,
Ala., formerly United States Senator,
presided over and addressed a large
L nion meeting at that place on the
sth instant. Highly loyal resolutions
were passed, and another convention
was called.
—ln the United States Senate on
Friday the Gold bill, after debate was
passed, yeas 40, nays 8. The bili as
passed with the Senate amendments,
provides that '• the Secretary of the
1 reasury be authorized to anticipate
the payment of interest on the public
debt by a period not to exceed one year,
from time to time, either with or with
out a rebate of interest upon the cou
pons, as to him may seem expedient;
and he is hereby authorized to dispose
of any gold in the Treasury of the
United States not necessary for the
payment of interest of the public
debt. The Post Office Appropriation
bill was passed.
WA RNEWS.
FORTRESS MONROE, March 12. —Gen.
Butler sent a portion of Kilpatrick's cav
alry (Col. S. Onderdonk and Spears') to
King aud Queens Court House, to deal
with the cit.zens claiming to be "non com
batants," who ambushed Col. Dahlgren.
Gen. Kilpatrick sent forwaad Col On
derdonk's command. The latter reports
that the sth and 9th A irginia Cavalry,
with all the citizens of that place, twelve
hundred in all, were driven from camp near
Carollin's store. The camp was taken,
and a number killed. Twenty prisoners
were captured. The enemy were also
driven from the Court House, and a large
amount of grain, mills, and storehouses
were burned.
The steamship Western Metropolis,
from New Orleans February 29, arrived at
New York on Friday. The Era, of the
28th contains a brief account of the be
ginning of Admiral Farragut's operations
against Mobile. The bombardment ot
Fort Powell at Grants Pass initiated on
the 24th ult., by the mortar flotilla, assisted
by several gunboats, and was being prose
cuted with vigor. The Rebels replied
rapidly, but their fire had resulted in only
one casualty on our side. At New Or
leans preparations on a grand scale were in
progress for the public inauguration of the
new State officers, and the city had been
greatly enlivened by a brilliant military
parade and review.
From Xewbern we learn that the recently
executed Union soldiers, twenty one in
number, who were hung at Kinston on
charge of having deserted from the Rebel
conscription, met their fate with unflinch
ing determination, and scornfully rejected
all offers of reprieve upon condition of re
turning to the Rebel service.
When Morgan "raided" through Indi
ana and Ohio, Richmond editors called
him the gallant cavalier of the South, and
styled his horse stealing and old men and
women murdering operations "glorious and
chivalric." When Kilpatrick pitches his
shells into Richmond and outrivals Morgan
in the "raiding" way, minus the inhuman
acts of the great horse-thief, the same edi
tors call his operations "barbarous."
General Sherman in his late expedition
destroyed provisions and forage enough to
subsist the Rebel army from three to sir
months. He brought large droves of cattle
several thousand head of mules, eight
thousand negroes, and over four thousand
prisoners. In addition to this, by the
destruction of very important railroad lines,
Sherman has released McPherson's Corps
from guard duty along the Mississippi.

THE Commissioners request all owners of
Unseated Laods, whether regularly as.
sessed or not, immediately to furnish them
with the number of acres, name of warrantee,
and whom adjoining, for the purpose of reg
istering the same in this office, so as to avoid
all difficulty hereafter in advertising such
lands at Treasurer's Sales. At present it is
impossible to tell whether certain lands are
regularly assessed, as the transcripts do not
give the names of warrantees. It may net
be amiss to state that owners of Unseated
lands are required by law to make return
as above, and that on failure thereof the Com
missioners are directed to add four times
the amount of tax assessed thereon.
