FROM WASHINGTON.
(Special Despatch to the Bulletin. 1
Washington, March 17 The Gold bill, as
amended by the House, will pass the Senate
to-day.
The stories of frauds in the Treasury Depart
ment .have been greatly exaggerated. Mr.
Chase is doing everything in his power to
bring the rogues to justice.
Gen. Lewis Wallace, of Indiana, takes com
mand of the Middle Department, on Saturday
next, in the place of Gen. Lockwood.
Advices from Gen. Butter state that he is
getting on admirably in his department, and
that it is probable that he will succeed in pro
curing a further exchange of prisoners.

argued his case at length before the House
Committee of Elections this morning.

the “greenbacks” taken from the cavalrymen,
one of theta suddenly drew a revolver and
shot the two guerilias,.who were guarding them
and made their escape. The cavalrymen re
turned to Alexandria in the afternoon, minus
their money.
FROM THE WEST.
[Special Despatch to the Bulletin.]
Cincinnati, March 17.—There is no news
from East Tennessee or the other military
points of interest. The impression, as I gather

and broken up.

LOCOMOTIVES FOR THE GOVERNMENT.
We are informed that there is no truth ih the
despatch from Paterson, N. J., published in
the newspapers yesterday, to the effect that
Col. McCallum, had notified the locomotive
builders of that placS, that unless they would
furnish immediately a large number of locomo
tives to the Government, he would seize their
shops and run them until the requisite number
of engines was completed. The facts of the
case are simply these: “There-opening of roads
in the West and Southwest makes it necessary
that about one hundred and twenty locomotives
shall be ready for transportation thither at the
earliest practicable moment, and Col. McCal
lum has visited the shops alluded to in Patter
son, as also Norris’s and Baldwin’s in Phila
delphia, and similar works elsewhere, for the
purpose of securing such engines as are near
completion. The builders promptly acquiesced
in the request of the agent of the Government,
and the Westemroads will he supplied; although
necessarily to the inconvenience of the corpo
rations for whose use they were originally
ordered.”

ture to $l,OOO per session. Both measures
