The war department we learn to-day re
received information : from Gen. Hunters com
mand, which, •having fulfilled the mission
upon which it was—the destruction of the Cen
tral railroad in the vicinity of Stanton, and of
the Gordonsville and Lynchburg railroad, and
an important portion of the James river canal
—is successfully pushing forward to the point
in Western Virginia, which Hunter was or
dered to make for, after having done the work
in the valley assigned to him. His losses
have been smaller than was anticipated when
he set out. The services his little army have
rendered are of great importance indeed and
his losses of comparative insignificence.
The steamer Keyport brought up two rebel
officers from City Point, who were captured a
few days ago, one a Colonel Baker, who com
mands a cavalry regiment, and the 'other a
rebel major who belonged to Gen. Lee's staff.
He wale caught in our lines, having in mistase
enquired of our pickets for a rebel brigade.
He was a bearer of dispatches from Lee to
Beauregard.
By direction of -the President; the 13th
Army Corps hits been temporarily discon
tinued.
The General commanding the division of
West Miisissippi has been ordered to assign
the troops of this corps.-- '
General Gilmore, who is now in the city
awaiting orders, had an interview with the
President this morning which lasted for some

Some miles of the Petersbnrg and Weldon

A Question of"neornes”, Under

The following correspondence explains it
self:
INQTIIIII - OF THE ABSESSOIt
Dear have a case of this kind in my
district, and several other casee, involving
the same principle, among our most intelli
gent and responsible citizens. A person.
some twenty years ago,,purchased a piece of
land at'a cost of . $l,OOO. and sold about one.
fifth of it (that of the heist value) last year
for $20,000. He and others claim this as
their capital,' and that the la.never contem
plated taxing as iuccitim operations of this
kind, or transfers of capital kora one form of
investment to another.
That, if this property had been exchanged
for other real estate or for railroad or other
stooks, no income - tax would have been asses
sed and collected, and that the fact of its hay
tag sold for money, and that money reinvested
in other unproductive real estate, buildings
stocks, or any other kind of property,
amounts simply to a change of investment of
capital, and does not render any part of it HE
ble to be treated as income.
He contends that in any event all that could
be claimed by the Government would be the
appreciation of the property after the law
went into erect. to the time of sale. He says
it will be impossible for him to make a correct
statement of what he has paid out for taxes
and other expenset since he purchased to this
time.
As, these cases are of considerable magni
bide, and likely to be contested if proceeded
against, I would like full and complete in
structions in regard to them. Yours truly,

Sin—ln reply to-144:104W=tagilleth" al I
have to say that where . real estate has risen
in value since its purchase, the incise must
be considered income to the owner. - The
only qUestion is, shall this appreciation be
taxed as tucome each year of its accruement,
or shall: the Assessor wait until the-property
be sold and the absolute profit realized; bj
fore he considers it income? .To assess she
nominal. appreciation of property year by
yearwouicl be to assess an amount vague and
uncertain, and frequently valueless to the
owner. Such a course would be fruitful of
bickering and dissatisfaction, to say nothing
more.
It is found more equitable by this office to
assess the appreciation of property only when
realized by a sale, when the sane at once be
comes tangible, and therefore reasonably as
sessible.
It is immaterial for purposes of taxation
whether the consideration for property sold as
above consist in money or stocks, or other
representatives of value, as the same is of a
nature that adroit& of the. profits of the sale
being even apprOximatedy estimated.
In view of the above, you will assess the
profits realized by the party whom you men
tion, according to rules , by this office hereto
fore provided. Very respectfully,

THE POSITION OF THE CONTENDIN( ARMIES.
From the Atlanta Regist r, June 17.
There has been no material change in the
position of the two armies within tam last,two
days, owing probably to the incessant rains,
which renatred the movement of artillery and
wagon trains a rather serums affair. ErerY

The two armies seem to be drifting slowly
to oar right; for whaCpurpcitie is perhaps heat

from Dallas around to the railroad, and a lit-,
he to the east of it, his line of breastworks
between the two points, some twenty-five or
thirty miles in length, describing the arc of a
circle. The Army of Tennessee, confident of
its own strength and prowess, keeps pace with
his movements, and confronts linikwith au

,Sherman felt that he cantata whip the Army
of Tennessee in one county, it is dillicult to

ings can be made by moving across a second
county into a third.
To reach Atlanta, if that be his object, he
must abandon his circle, which would carry
him entirely around "it, and come straight
ahead. It is true 'General Johnston might
claim a sort of pre-emption right to the latter

MATTERS ABOUT PETERSBURG TO ALONDAT NIGHT,
. NIKE O'CLOCK. :
[From the Petersburg Register, June 21.)
To-day, about one tile longest in the
year, passed over Petersburg unbroken by
scarcely an incident worthyot note. • Im-,tead
of being a stormy day, it was one of almost
unbroken repose. A iew shells were tired in
to the town, and fell, without doing any
damage, in different localities, without much
regard to the points of the compass.
Itumors even were less plenty than usual,
and met with much less credit than usual, for
everybody seemed impre:ssed linty •wi h the
belief that the defence of thii vital point was
in the kiands of those who, by the litessing..of
God, will hold it against the vandal host, now
threatening, to tun- it by the throat. With
the little thing going on, of either artillery or
small arms, there must have been but a tnnal .
list of casualities to.day.
May 10, 1864.
From the Petersburg tiegister June 21.
It is with sorrow and regret that we are
called upon to record the death of another of
the gallant defender: of Petersburg. Doctor
William Bellingham, who was wounded in the
hip in the entrenchments near this city, on
the memorable 9th, expired at 1 o'clock r. M.
yesterday.. Dr. Bellingham was .a native of
Delawarhad live 9 in Petersburg since 1852,
and had ° gathered about him .a troop of
fnends.
