UnloLel I nomas A. Scott, Assistant Secre
tary of War. and J. Lesley, Mq. Tbeir
knowledge of the wants of tba Department
are such that everything will go oo with tba
Vigor that tbe late disaster has inspired into
tbe Department.
It is rumored that Deanregtrd left Menus
as yesierday, for Charleston, South Carolina
On a visit.
Jiff Davis, tl will be remembered, boasted
that the provisions which he had captured
would make thirty-seven million pounds, and
that an immense uomber of horses and wa
gons would be required to baal tbe apoila
away. 1 am informed by a quartermaster,
thul in reality only twenty wagons were cap
tured. Jeff. Davis is evidently addicted to
remarkable exaggerations.
At elate hour last evening, Lianleoaot
rUrigeo, of the Georgia Sixth Regiment,
came into our lioes near Jiailey's Cross
Roads, with a Bag of truce. He brought
despatches from General Johnston to Gene
ral McDowell. He was taken to tbe tent of
a general officer, and kept there while) bit
message whs conveyed to Gen. McClellan.
This morning the despatches were laid before
President Lincrln. Rumor tayt that their
import is merely to ask an exchange of pri
soners, c upled, however, with a threat that
vengeance will be taken on our most promi
nent men now iu their bands if we execute
the law upou even one of tbe prisoners
which have been made by the Federul
forces.
Two ladies, who came in to-day from Ma
nnspas, confirm the reports of the heavy loss
or the Rebels, and say that tbe traitors tell
the most exaggerated stories of their capture
of the Federal artillery, which did such terri
fic execution wherever we had a fair sweep
t them.
Dr. McGoire, nf Winchester, wrote home
that tbe lore of the Rebels was six thousand,
killed aod wounded.

Sixty two bodies were token to Winchester,
twelve to Martinxburg, and ten to Cbarles
towu and the surrounding towns and counties.
They did not take off tbeir dead, and tbe
whole country is in inourniog.
Tbe new Treusury Notes are being pre
pared for ie9ut. A portion of tbe low
denominations are made payable to tba
bearer in coin, at placet designated on tbeir
face. All the Treasury Notes may be ex
changed for twenty years bonds, bearing tix
per cent interest. The evidences that bava
already been exhibited make it plain that tbe
issues will be eagerly sought by tbe country
la alt lections, as a circulating medium.
Wasihnotoii, August 6 1861.
We learn thut a cipher bas been arranged
for tbe use of the Government by Mr. J. A.
Talcott, of the American Telegraph Compa
ny. It will enable tbem to send important
iulorniation and orders over the wires, so
that uune but those furnished with the key
can uuderstaod not even I lie operator knows
the meaning of what he is sending, und if ally
cnunncliou be made by tbe enemy, aud tbey
catcli what is passing over the, it will Dot
avail the m uu) thing. It is believed, now,
that every message that passed over tbe
wires to and from Patterson's column, was
taken off and communicated to tbe eoeiny.
It now appears certain that tba Rebels
have ouly lilleeu caauun belonging to our
army.
Several nights ego the Rebels were greatly
alarmed, fearing an attack was to be made
opon tbem in tbe neighborhood of Fairfax
Court House. Accordingly, about filleeo
hundred men were sent to tbat vicinity.
Strong parties of tbeircavalry are continually
crossing- the country this tide of Fairfax
Court House. It is not known what number
of Rebel troops there are there, but tbey are
making preparations by meant of the railroad,
to reiolorce Vienna, Centrevilla and tbe
Court House whenever tbey may deem it
necessary. Late events have emboldened
tbem iu their operations.
Tbe idea prevails that the Rebels will not
receive rjags of truce. This is a mistake.
Tbey seut in a flag last night, stating tbat
tbe body of Colonel Cameron bad been found,
was preserved, and would be tent here as
s on as a request to tbat effect should be
sent for it, properly addressed. A letter
addressed to Geueral Beauregard, comman
der of the forces at Manassas, was ' returned
uoopeued. They claim that their officers
must be addressed as commanding tba troops
or tun Imjihh ierale States, at such aud such
a pl-ice. Tbe reasou why it bat not been
lierelolore done is because, in the opinion of
tne Administration, such an address would
impiy, on tne pari ol our Government
recoKoitino of the Southern Confederacy.
I he following it a correct list of all tba
confirmations that have been made by the
Seoato up lo thia lime: For Mator-Gene-
rals; George b. McClellan of Penoajlvaoia ;
mr. utik4, of Massachusetts ; John C

Tbe Pennsylvania regiments will be placed

regimeuts will be eigbt batteries of artillery,
of six guut each, making forty eight pieces of

debars the owner of a slave, who emnlovs
him in a similar service, from anv claim for
his recovery, thus freeing tbe slave from his
disloyal master.
I hrough tha effort! of General Sickles, an
mportont provision bas been adopted by
Jonitress. All volunteers accented bv tha
President and mustered into service for one.
two or three years, or for during the war, are
to be paid from that time, without waiting
until they reach tbe rendezvous.
Ibe mcreased pay of four dollars per month
to the volunteers involves an additional
yearly expenditure from the Treasury of
about twenty millions. This provision bas
been euibodiet in tbe form of law.
