Brevet Appointments. A message was yesterday received from the President by the Senate, in answer- to the resolution calling for the proceedings of the Board convened to make brevet appoint ments of general officers in the regular army covering the proceedings referred to. • The Board consisted of Generals W. T. Sherman, George G. Meade, Sheridan and Thomas, with Lieutenant Colonel L. M. Dayton, as Recorder. The Board convened at St. Louis on the Ist of March, all being present except General Sheridan. The order included two classes of recom mendations, for "gallant and meritorious services," and for "faithful services." They express in their report "a sincere desire to do all full and liberal justice," and say "if the question were a perfectly new one we would be inclined to recommend the aboli tion of the whole systeth of brevet rank, and to substitute in its place some other mode of reward for special gallantry in ac tion; such as medals commemorative of the event, or to make actual promotion to va cancies without regard to prior rank. But brevet commissions have been conferred in all past wars, and during the present one, so that we are estopped and compelled to olsegard them as precedents binding on our judgment." They express a decided opinion that brevet rank should only be conferred for distinguished services in the field, in presenee of the enemy, and that if merito rious conduct in non-combatant duty should be thus rewarded, there would be great confusion from a disproportion of offi cerswith high rank in comparison with the limited number of men. Recommendations are made as follows : For rank of Brevet Major-General—lrwin McDowell, for the battle of Cedar Moun tain; John Pope, for Island No. 10; Joseph Hooker, for Chattanooga; W. S. Hancock, Spottsylvania; J. M. Schofield, Franklin; 0. 0. Howard, Campaign of Atlanta; A. H. Terry, Wilmington, N. C.; E. 0. C. Ord, Fort Harrison; John G. Parke, Fort Stead man; D. S.

FORTRESS MONROE,ApriI 23.—The former election in Portsmouth for municipal offi.- eers having been contested by the Radical party, a new election took place on last Sat urday. Ga the former occasion it is asserted the Commissioners, or a portion of them, deserted the post before the legal hours of election had expired. The Citizens' Ticket, as it is Called, was elected by a large majo rity. The party supporting this ticket ap proved of the President's policy. It is proposed in Norfolk by some of the principal citizens, to hold a public meeting and prepare a statement of the recent occur rences attending the negro procession in honor of the passage of the Civil Rights bill, in that city several days since. The propo sition is meeting with general favor, and will probably be carried into execution in the course of the present week. The United States sloop-of-war Macedo nian, which has been undergoing extensive repairs at the Gosport Navy• Yard, prepara tory to a cruise, came out of the dry dock 4)n Saturday. The United States frigate Savannah, Lieut.-Com. Walker, arrived here on Sat urday from Annapolis, in tow of the gun boat Ascutney. She proceeded to the Gos port Navy-Yard, and will be fitted out as a cruising vessel for the midshipmen at the Naval Academy. The United States double-ender Cone iniugb, Lieut.-Com. Quackenbush, which zolieved the double ender Oquooon at this station several months ago, proceeds to Nor folk to-morrow to be fitted out and obtain a supply of coal, She leaves here on the Ist of next month for a Southern station. Heavy squal:s have prevailed here to day, the wind blowing hard from the south west. . From Nashville. _ - NASHVILLE,ApriI 24.—The Court-Martial met to-day. The case of Mr. Isham Hen derson was up for trial, but he was not pre sent,and the Court adjourned till to-morrow, when it is expected he will be here. • In the Senate to-day a bill passed first reading tendering the Mansion House, at the - Hermitage (Jackson's residence) and two hundred acres of ground, on condition that the United States Government would et.tablish on it a branch of the West Point Military Academy, or some otherpublic in stitution. The rest of the estate, about three hundred acres, is to be sold, and the proceeds are to be applied to the payment of the bonds issued by the State in payment for the whole pro perty. T: CAS AFLE ASE OF C. C. CLAY.—The statment that Senator Wilson had asked for the re lease of Clement C. Clay unconditionally is shown to be faThe by the following, written two months ago, and on which the Presi dent refused to act: 'UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBERS, WASHINGTON. March 3, 1866.—T0 the Pre sident of the United States-SIR : Mrs. Clay, the wile of Clement C. Clay, is now in this •oity, and has requested me to obtain per anibsionlor her husband to go to his home on parole.. Ills father is said to be at the point of deth,bis mother recently deceased, and if there be no objections or reasons un known to me:why the request of Mrs. Clay should be denied, I have no hesitation in recommending it a favorable consideration, if only from motives of humanity, as I have no doubt Mr. Cl!iy will be forthcoming when his presence is again required by the Government. I have the honor to be, sir, very respect fully, your obedient servant. HALIFAX, N. S., April 24.—The steamer Merlin, from St. John's, N. 8., has arrived here.

Try AYER'S SARSAPARILLA, and see far yourself the surprising activity with which it cleanses the blood and cures these disorders. During late years the public have been misled by large bottles,pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. 'Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they net oily contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla, but- ones no curative properties whatever. - Hence, bitter disappointment has followed the use of the vari ,, us extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the name itself nas became synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound ;"Sarsaparilla" and intend to supply sneh a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. We think we have ground tor believing it has virtues which are irresistia hie by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure. We can only as= ure the sick, that we offer them. the best alterative which we know how to produces and we have reason to believe, it is by far the most effectual purifier of the blood yet discovered by any A•Y.s...it'S CHERRY PECTORAL is a o oniversaily known to surpass every other remedy fbr the cure of' Coughs Olds, fraffuensa, finarsrness, Croup, Bron chitis, Incipient consumption and for the relief of Con. sumptive Patients in advanced stages of tbe disease, that is is useless here to recount the evidence of its virtues.
