WASHINGTON, Sept. 22
The following named Brigadier Generals of
Volunteers have been appointed, John B. S.
Todd, of Dacotah Territory, late Captain in the
sixth infantry. Maj. and Quarter Master Van
Tliet, U. S. A., to be assigned to the duty as
chief of the Quarter Masters Department of the
army of the Potomac. Mal. Barnard, of the U.
S. Engineers, to be assigned to the duty as
chief Engineers of the army of the Potomac.
John Newton and Winfield S. Hancock are also
to be Brigadier Generals of Volunteers.
According to an army order, issued td-day,
whenever companies, by an economical use of
their rations, have raised a surplus, it must be
left in the hands of the commissary from whom
they draw their rations. The bills of purchase
at the cost prices of the articles will ba paid by
any commissary having funds for that purpose,
for the benefit of the economisers. Heretofore
these surplus rations have been sold to sutlers
and store keepers, or exchanged for other sup
plies by the soldiers at a sacrifice.
The contract for supplying stationery to the
Navy Department , for the present fiscal year
has been awarded to Messrs Philips & Solomon,
of this city.
The National Fast. Day will be generally ob

Adoption of the Constitution.
The War Department has authorized a cav

The picket tiring in Virginia has greatly de
creased since Saturday.
An escaped Virginian, who has arrived here
reports to our headquarters that the rebels have
no batteries on the Potomac except at Acquia
Creek, he having made a thoroughrecoonois
sauce.
Two attaches of the Prince de Joinville to-day
received commissions on General McClellan's
staff.
Some military changes have been made that
are interesting to Pennsylvanians. Col. Chas.
J. Biddle declines the appointment of Brigadier
General of Volunteers, probably because he does
not desire to lose the seat in Congress to which
he has been elected. He remains in command
of his regiment.
General Heintzleman, heretofore on the other
side of the Potomac, will take command of one
of the Pennsylvania brigades in Major-General
McCall's division. He has recovered from his
wounds received at Bull Run. Capt. Meade, of
the Topographical Engineers, has received his
commission as Brigadier General of volunteers.
So, also, has Captain John F. Reynolds, of the
Third Artillery, (a Pennsylvanian) lately In
structor at West Point.
Prince Salm-Salm, who had been assigned to
the command et a Pennsylvania Cavalry regi
ment, has, been transferred to Gen. Blenker's
German regiment, as he can speak no English.
There is not a word of truth in the statement
that Major General Fremont will probably be
removed.
The Government has received no news con
firming the report of Col. Mulligan's surrender
at Lexington.
The Government is sending a large amount
of Treasury notes to the West, in accordance
with the demand. •
Roes Winans has again been released from
Federal custody.
AN INTERESTING CASE-STATE RIGHTS
INVOLVED
PHIZADUNIIIA, Sept. 23
An important case came before Judge Lud
low this morning having bearing on the enlist
ment system. Two Philadelphians enlisted in
the Lincoln Cavalry of New York and subse
quently enrolled themselves in Capt. Davis'
Independent ZonaVes of the Pennsylvania 24th
Regiment. They were treated as deserters from
the Cavalry and had a hearing this morning on
a writ of habeas corpus for the purpose of testing
the right to recuit in Pennsylvania for other
State Regiments.
Judge Ludlow postponed his decision, the
only difficulty being the production of a certi
ficate that these men were actually in the ser
vice of the United States Government. He de
sires, if possible, to prevent an apparent conflict
•between the State and General Government.
This is the first attempt to break up recruiting
here for other States.

On Tuesday last the steamer Fanny ran down
to Ocracoke Inlet with a company of troops,
who entirely destroyed the rebel fortiti -ations
abandoned some time since. The magazt tie was
burnt and the cannon sunk.
It is said that the rebels were asseml led in
forces at Washington and Newbern, and that
two thousand of them had landed on Roanoke
Island with the intention of destroying the
lighthouse and the dwellings of the Union men.
A detachment of seven hundred men, accom
panied by a naval force, were about to leave
Hatteras Inlet to prevent this inroad:
The rebel privateers Coffee and Winslow had
visited Ocracoke Inlet, to carry off the cannon
left by the rebels, but they left on the appear
ance of the Fanny.
The steamers Pawnee and Susquehanna were
still at Hatteras Inlet.
The Argonont of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia,
laden with fish and salt ran into the inlet, and
was secured as a prize.
A portion of the eleventh regiment, New York
Fire Zouaves, composed mainly of the members
of the first regiment Fire Zouaves, reached Old
Point this morning.
There was an alarm last night at Newport
News. The troops in the Fortress and at Camp
Hamilton were also under arms at dusk. A
considerable rebel force was seen near Newport
News, but it was withdrawn after burning a
few grain ricks.

THE PENNSYLVANIA -RESERVE
Prince de Joinvilte and Suite Visit Gen.
McCall and Ills Command.
The Washington correspondent of the North
American says that Saturday last was another
great day fur Petinsylvania. A grand review
was got up at Tennallytown, in honor of the
Prince de Joinville, who, with the Due de
Chartres, Count de Paris, and the officers of his
suite, left Willaid's about 9 o'clock, on horse
back. The distinguished party was accom
panied by Gen. McCllan and his staff, and met
at Georgetown by Capt Scheetz, of Gen.
McCall's staff, and a squadron of cavalry.
Thus escorted the party proceeded to the
ground, where about twelve thousand Penn
sylvania soldiers wire assembled. At eleven
o'clock the roar of artillery announced the
arrival of the Prince, "to whom General
McCall was immediately presented, General
McClellan gracefully performing the intro
ductory ceremony. The party, preceded by
Generals McClellan and McCall, then rje
through the lines, closely inspecting tWe
volunteers, and frequently complimentink
the State upon the general appearance of
her patriotic soldiers. The whole body sub
sequently passed in review before the vis
itors, the same order being observed as on
the recent occasion of the presentation of colors
by Governor Curtin. A number of prominent
citizens were present, and several carriages were
occupied with ladies, whose presence added
grace and elegance to the scene. The good
order and discipline of the men excited general
admiration, and the praises of Pennsylvania
uttered by the distinguished guests were echoed
by all others present. The Prince more than
once remarked that tee men looked like "old
soldiers," and when informed that they had
only been a few weeks in the field, he expressed
great astonishment.
After the review the party spent a social half
hour at the headquarters of General McCall,who
extended his hospitality with the dignity and
politeness for which he is distinguished. The
Prince and his suite were touched with the
marked attention paid to them, and evidently
highly delighted with their visit, whilst the
many Pennsylvanians present had another oc
casion to feel proud of their State, and another
opportunity of witnessing the grand results of
the inclefatigible labor and wisdom of her chief
magistrate.
The division, now the largest of the army, is
being brigaded, four regiments composing each
brigade. Gen. McCall has already assumed com
mand of one. General Reynolds, whose mili
tary achievements have acquired for him a
widely spread fame, is assigned to the second
brigade, and will take command in a few days ;
and to the third it is probable that Gen. Heint
zelman will be appointed at his own request.
The general, who has now nearly recovered from
the effects of his wounds received at Bull run,
says he owes his commission to Pennsylvania,
and though he has a good command of New
York regiments he would prefer to lead the sol
diers of his native State.
