GEORGE G. MEADE, Major General. Enormous Government Frauds is New-York. Near/y " a Jfillitia Dollars Stolen 0740 Thousand Persons Implicated. Sings tho bet of November an investigation into the fratide ihieh have been practiced upon the government since the commencement of the war has been in progress in the city of New- York. The special commissioner appointed to make the investigation is Mr. K. S. Oloott, who has_ been provided With interpreters, Berke and de. temives. The results of the inquiry show-that out of the sixteen hundred thousand dollars (1,600,000) which have been paid out in that city alone, from the special appropriation of $20,000,000 made for the recruiting, organizing and drilling of volunteers, nearly one-half Mas been paid on fraudulent accounts. - The inquiry has also developed the means by which these frauds have been accomplished, and show that nearly one thonsand pereous have been engaged in them—not all of whom, however, are criminally implicated. About the Ist of September, 18111, the Arid money paid under appropriation was received by Colonel Sachet,' a mustering and disbursing officer in that city, and as soon as it was known that hills of contractors for subsistence and lodging of volunteers wholtad not been mustered into the - service, could be paid without going through 11,6 ordinary Connie, aueh an qrmy of claimante canto forward as to exhaust the funds in the course of three or four days. Soon afterwards, one hundred thousand dol lars were received and paid out in like manner, but the demands increased eo rapidly that the funds were never sufficient for their payment. The mode in which the frauds ware committed was as follows: —Under the regulations for the disbursement of the funds appropriated the cer tificate of the colonel of the regiment and that of the special contractor sway:were needed, un less, in the opinion" of the disbursing atrium, a fraud was contemplated, in which case the bills were certified under oath. The starchy of funds anti the accumulation of bills, however, rendered it impossible for honest claimants to obtain their dues speedily, and they were tato compelled to wait ter volts, if not months. The brokers then esule.in, and offered to take the claim' at a discount, and frequently the bills were bought st snotty :fire per cent. a their value. The claims, whiCh were principally for subsistence and lodgin g, were near ly all pro ;tented by German . • These wen did not understand the -ad feaeed that they would r YPcrlra any thing, and, therefore, took thepooeY which offered thew by brokers wb.,..f could afford to wait. But the contraotors,,,,..e content with receiv ing the large anto6 which they gained in this gionur, i„, r p...ved a plan of obtaining claims which wee-mt Part or wholly fraudulent. The) , indueeGermans who had subsisted troops to s i a-hills in blanks, and in some eases men who d never subsisted any troops signed bills which amounted to thousand of dollars. The brokers employed " runners" who assist ed in getting up these hills, and they or the "run mere " frequently counterfeited the signatures of the Germans. In one case Lindenmuller, of the Bowery, kicked ant of his •place the man who presented the claim for his sigiature, and re tained the papers, in evidence ag%inet him, which are now in the possession of Mr. Oicott. This Commission is not authorized to punish the crimes which may be discovered, and which is is not now permitted to develops in detail; hut the citizens who have been engaged in the frauds will be handed over to the civil courts for trial. and the officers of the army who:are implicated will be tried by court martial.—N.

Rebel regiments of cavalry were encountered at Dripping Springs. After a si.nrp skirmish they were put to flight, leaving seven killed and many wounded on the Add. Our lose was none killed, and but few wounded. Our forces immediately followed the flying Rebels to Van Buren, where a splendid charge was made, led by Was. Blunt and Herron in person, resulting in a complete victory over the enemy.• The -Rebel cavalry rushed aboard some steam boats, and escaped to the other side of the river. Two steamers and over' 100 prisoners (among them several officers and Hindman's express messenger) were espiuretl. A third boat was run ashore, which, with those that took the Re bets across the river, will be destroyed. A large quantity of corn, camp equipage, transportation, mules and horses were also seized. The full ex tent of the captures is not yet known.

The rumor grew out or the foot that night before last lee or twelve rebel guerillas crossed front Ball's Bluff over to Ilarri son'a Island, probably designing a brief thieving expedition into Maryland, but seeing that their motions were observed from the north shore, they prudently returned into Loudon county before daybreak.
