FRIDAY MORNING,:: OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY THE FUNERAL OF MR. DOUGLAS. Mr. Douglas will be buried to-day at Chi cago, at 2 o’clock. We Buggest that in this city minute guru be fired in honor of his mems ory. WEEKLY POST. The Weekly Poit, with all the latest news, may be had at our Counting Room, this morning, in wrappers ready for mailing. The election for Field officers of the Re giments of Home Guards will take place on Saturday, by order of the Committee on Home Defence. The appointment of these officers by the Committee not meeting with the views of the Home Guards, the Commit tee have very properly ordered this election. The men whom the Committee appointed were unexceptionable. Hon. William Wilkins, who declined the appointment of the Committee, we are •aaured will accept the election of the Ma jor Generalship. .Judge Wilkins was oue of the first to speak out for the Union. — He was chairman of the Union meeting which waa held on the Monday night that the assurance of the tali of Sumter was re ceived. He has been untiring in his labors as Chairman of the Committee of Public Safety. His locks are white,but his eye and his intellect are undimmed by the snows ol xnany winters, and he will stand ready to be a soldier of the Union while his life shall last. It is eminently fit that he should be chosen’ as the Major General of the Home Guards. Gen. George W. Cass, who was appointed as one of the Brigadier Generals by the Committee, is a graduate of West Point and iB thoroughly acquainted with military matters, in all respects he will make an admirable and effective Brigadier General of the Home Guards and we hope to see him elected. The selection of Gov. .Johnston and Dr. Simpson for the position of Brigadier Gene rals by the Committee was an equally happy one. They are both gentlemen of military knowledge, fine presence and administra- tive ability. Ex-Governor Samuel W. Black, is also nominated for one of the Brigadier Gene ralships by a correspondent of this paper.— Cob Black “ has done the State some ser. vice and they know it.’’ His experience in the Mexican War and his brilliant record as a soldier in that campaign, have placed him among the foremost of the military men of Pennsylvania. There is no military position either in the field or at home which he would not adorn. • v .. ..f I. ' . ’f 't BOMB GUARD FIELD OFFICERS. THE MOVEMENTS OF THE WAR. The contemplated advance of the federal troops over the Potomac towards Fairfax, in consequence of information received by Gen eral Scott that a large body of rebels, reported to number several thousand, were at Centre villa, about ten miles from Alexandria, and all the troops were therefore retained at their posts in anticipation of an attack. They bivouacked on the field on Monday night, sleeping on their arms, ready for action In of a surprise. Nothing important occur red, however, except a few straggling shot* on the outposts. From Fortress Monroe intelligence reached Gen. Butler that a scouting party of Colonel Allen’s Troy regiment had been taken prisoners by a body of 500 rebels at Fox Hill, near Hampton, on tho previous day, but General Butler doubted the report, from the fact that the country in that direction had beeD thor oughly reeonnoitered by his troops, and the presonoe of no such force of rebels could be discovered. However, tbe General immedi ately ordered Colonel Duryee’s Zouaves to pursue the rebels and recapture tho party of Oolonel Allen’s men, if such disaster had oo oured. Gen. Patterson has taken command of the Pennsylvania troops at Chaxnbersburg to which point Colonel Bowley’s regiment has moved. Colonel Campbell's regiment Is still stationed along the line of tho Northern Central Bail road. ENGLAND. The news lrom England is to the '24th.— The American question was still canvassed eagerly and regarded as one of paramount im portance. The dispatch o( Secretary Seward to Ur. Faulkner, our late Minister in Paris, was published in the London journals and oommented on, generally, in a not very friend ly spirit. Hon. Cassius U. Clay’s letter to the London Times attracted much attention also. Letters from Liverpool to London leave little room to doubt but thst many vessels for pri vateerihg purposes, in aid of the Southern confederacy, were being tilted out in that port The Liverpool underwriters had permitted the pith of the Jeff. Davis rules lor privateers to be posted in their rooms. An American ship —the first—had hoisted the rebel flag in the Prince’s dock, Liverpool. A grand Unioo meeting of American residents in Paris had been held in that oily. We have a complete list of the war veesels which are to constitute the British North American squadrop. When thea tre all mastered Queen Victoria will have over four hundred guns and between five and ,iz thousand sailors on our seaboard. MAJOR GENERAL OP THE HOME GUARDS. Hon. Wm. .Wilkins having been strongly advocated for the position of Major General,at the election to be held by the Home Guards on Saturday, it was rumored that Geo. W. Casa, Ksq, also aspired to the same position and would contest it. The following note shows Mr. Cass’ position in the matter. He is not and will not be a candidate, and the venerable Judge Wilkins will doubtless be elected without opposition : Pittsburgh, June sth, 1861 Dear Sir: —That there may be no mis taie, I desire again to assure you that it is, jjyjys has been, my wish that the selec tion or nomination made by the Committee Hotns De*® lloo f° r Major General, should be ratified by tbe vote of the Guards on Satur next.

The Philadelphia Press say a that the “ outrage upon business" passed by the Leg islature of Pennsylvania last winter, in the shape of a law relative to brokers and pri vate bankers, which Governor Curtin him self pronounced infamous, but which be. came a law in consequence of his not hav iug returned it with his objections within three days after the commencement ol the j session, on April HO, 1861, begins to receive the attention of members ot the Stock Board in that city. The law requires every stock broker, bill broker, exchange broker, real estate broker and private banker, in the Common wealthy to. make return under oath to the Auditor General, of the full amount of his receipts from commissions, discounts, abatements, allowances and all other profits arising from his business during the year ending with the thirtieth day of November preceding the date of such annual return, and shall forth* with pay into the State Treasury three per centum upon the aggregate amount con' tained in Buch return for the use of the Com monwealth. JUNK 7 It also requires these parties to make a < return to the Auditor General in writing ' under oath, within Lhree months after the ( passage of this act, setting forth the name of the person so employed, if an individual, or if a partnership, the names ot all the indi viduals composing the same, and the name of the firm, the location or place where such business is transacted, and the amount of capital invested therein, if any. The penalty for neglect or refusal is one thousand dollars without abatement of the demand. 3 Irv remarking upon the manner in which this law is regarded by the business men of Philadelphia. The Press says : Many of the members of the Board of Uro kers have under consideration the propriety of removing their organization to New Jersey, to avoid the operation of this outrageous law. Every year, for a long lime past, some move mant has been made at Harrisburg providing for some kind of special taxation of the capi tal used by private bankers and brokers, ani as regularly comes down a feeler from the third house, the borers and lobby men, to know " what aid the of the bill," or "how much they may ascertain," or, in plain lan guage, how much money the brokers witl con« tribute to have this outside influonee exerted to prevent the panage of such a law. The brokers, be it told to thoir honor and crodit, have invariably refused U> pay money to these corruptionists. Now, the bill above copied has been allowed to become a law, and, if it is constitutional, millions of dollars of capital will be driven away from our law-ridden State to Now York, after the other millions that have already been sent by such enactments to swell the wealth and business of our rival city There are some good reasons why the bro kers should give up their licenses and transfer their Board to Camden. In New Jersey the law makes no difference between stocks and other subjects of purchase and sale, as in the ' case here, but stocks may be bought on credit in the same manner that anything else can be , bought on credit, and such sale is held there to be legal. The expenses of the Board in Cam * den wuuld be light, and so would those of the f individual members, not obliged to pay a heavj i sum for a license as in Pennsylvania. i 1 n this city we understand that the Bro kers and Ranking Houses are very goner ally advised that this law is unconstitutional ( and they will not regard it in any way what ever. It is manifestly unequal taxation, and is in every sense impolitic* The pri vate business of any class of men is not a legitimate subject of a public return. Why j should brokers be compelled to show theo profits and pay a tax upon them, whan merchants and other licensed dealers arc not so compelled. t It strikes us that under the circumstun , ces of this bill becoming a law, " through a ! mistake, ’’ that there will be no attempt on the part of the iitate authorities to execute | at least not until another legislature has I passed upon. It is clearly within the pro i vince of the Governor, as the Chief Execu * tive of the Slate to refuse to execute a law which he believes to be clearly wrong, and - to have beoome a law only through a mis take which occurred when the legislature > Was unexpectedly called to gather to oon s aider matters of the greatest public impor * tance. We think there is no necessity to * 44 remove capital ’' from the State tor the act under the circumstances Bhould be re garded on all hands as a dead letter. THB ABM Y IiONTBACT ISVBSTIGA- Caleb Cope and Evans Rogers have been added to the Commission to investigate the alleged frauds in the supplies to the troops The Commission is now composed of B- Haywood, Jacob Fry, Jr., Chas. I*. Abbott, and the two gentlemen above named.— Tnese men are all men of character and the selection of Buch men for this duty by Gov. Curtiif is the best evidence that he is deter mined to hare the public know where the censure for our troops being badly provided belongs. 11 Is proper that suoh a commis sion should exist and their report will show to what extent individuals have failed in their duty as contractors as well as how much of the complaining is due to the haste with which our troops were necessarily equipped and called into the held. The military force that has been assembled, at and near Chambersburg, within a lew weeks, consists almost entirely of Pennsylva nians. The whole number must now reach quite hlleen thousand men, all infantry except a force of about four hundred regular cavalry and the First City Troop of Philadelphia Major General Patterson is in command ol this Pennsylvania army which has probably al ready begun to advanoe into Maryland with a view to the ultimate occupation of Harpor’s Perry. Although this force consists altogether of new levies, the material of which it is com posed is excellent, and we expect to hear a good account of its operations before many days. it is stated on high official authority that Jeff Davis anticipates the first sanguinary conflict to be at Harper's Ferry, and that it is his intention to head the troops in per son. if this turnß out to be true, our Pitts burgh regiments will have a chanoe at him. It does not require the gift of prophecy to say that if Jeff Davis takes the field in per son against any considerable body of Nor thern troops, he will either fail on the field or be made a prisoner of. Prom Cairo we learn that intelligence was received there of the presence of a force of 6,000 rebels at D nion City, Tennessee, where Genera' Beauregard was expeoted to arrive on Sunday last. Ten thousand rebels were re ported to be located at different points between Memphis and Cairo, no doubt with the inten tion of advancing toward the latter point and attacking the federal troops there. - Slava continue to arrive in considerable number? atfJeneral Butler's camp, and are put to.jif)fk.'’in the trenches. They are said to comprehend the oonditlon of affairs very olearly, and are flying from their homes every day. ■ 3 \ 'jf THE PENNSYLVANIA ARMY JEFF DAVIS. Rebels In the West. More Slaves.

The people, without regard to station or opinion are anxious to do honor to the memory of the departed statesman. To-day his funeral will take place at Chicago, and throughout the coun try the sympathy of a great people will partake in those funeral obsequies^ The news of his death was received at a time when the Committee of Public Safety were in session and at their request the ven erable William Wilkins was requested to prepare a suitable expression in regard to this sad event on behalf of the Committee. He has done so, and it is a tribute worthy of the patriotism of the distinguished gentle man who wrote it.

That wo lecooimend to Congress the call ing of a National Convention, for the settle mont of our national difficulties, and that every possible, every honorable means shall be first exhausted by the national government be fore our prosperous people be plunged into a civil war, the ultimate result of which the wisest cannot foresee. 3. That we are opposed to a war prosecuted for the subjugation of the seceding States, while it is possible amicably to settle the diffi culties now existing. 4. That we are opposed to the prosecution ot a war against the seceded States; waged under any circumstances for the purpose of emanci pating the slaves of the Southern slaveholding Slates. 6. That the Secretary of the Senate be re* quested to forward a copy of these resolution* to the President of the United States, and to each of our Keprefentatives in Congress. The Pay and Pension of our Volunteers The following recapitulation affords useful information to volunteers and their families : 1. After being mustered into the service of the United States, volunteers are entiiled to pay the same as regular troops. 2. If disabled by wounds received in service or disease contracted in service, they are enti» tied to an invalid pension during life, or as long as the disability continues. 3 If any are killed or die in the service of the United States, leaving a widow, she is en titled to what pay was due her husband, and a pension. If there is no widow, the child or children of such volunteer are entitled to the pay, and a pension until they are sixteen years of age. 4. If there is no widow or ohild under six leer?years of age, the other heirs ot decedent are entitled to the pay due the volunteer at the time of his death—no pension. At this time neither the volunteers nor any heirs are entitled to land-warrants, but there is no doubt an act of Congress will be passed early in July, granting ono hundred and Bixty acres to every volunteer who shall servo fourteon days, or engage in battle, and be honorably discharged first to the widow, second to the children, third to the mother, fourth to the father; and if all of the foregoing heirs bo dead, fifth the brothers and sisters of those who may so serve and die without receiving a warrant, in like manner as the volunteers who served in Mex ico are now rewarded. Seamen and others who lake prises, and those performing meri torious feats, will undoubtedly be rewarded with the fruits of their valor. Those patriotic men and women who suffer from robbery in the slave States, under the name of conflsca tion, will almost certainly be rewarded, ac cording to the Scripture rule, fourfold from the property of the rebels—all State confisca tions being wholly illegal—and mere organiz ed piracy will be punished, and Congress will undoubtedly pass a proper and effectual act whereby tb6 United States courts will take from the unfaithful and unjust stewards what property they may have, and give it to the faithful and true servants. 6. In addition to wbat the volunteers and heirs are entitled to, and may become entitled to from the United States, the several States have passed and will pass acta granting pay from the State Treasury. The ball which wounded him has been ex tracted from Col. Kelly's breast and there are hopes of hia recovery. ■'l V * & * "* Judge Douglas to be buried iu Chicago* 1* is gullied.

This action of the widow of the illustrious dead, coming as it did in quick succession up on tho saddening rumor that his body was 'o be taken to the federal cspital, soon became known throughout this city, and the kindness and readiness with which tho lady had res* ponded to the appeals ot her countrymen won the greatfol admiration of our entire people. — The request with which she met the wish that J der husband should be buried in Illinois, but added grace to her sacrifice. That request was that he be buried in hie own beautiful grove, on the shore of Lake Michigan, on the Bite marked out by him. and long since deeded to her, where she might reside in her own cottage home, in sight of bis tomb She appreciates fully the relation that diet ed between her husband and tho Slate.
