DAILY POST. TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 1 CITY AND NEIGHBOIIIIOOD INTELLIGENCE. Pittsburgh "Board of Trade." It iS humiliating for a Pittsburgher to know that the city of his• birth or adoption is, in any matter, behind other cities of like or even smaller population and im portance—more so to admit, the fact pub licly. So we feel now; and it is with much hesitation we allude disparagingly to what is considered abroad an institution ofsome importance, our Board of Trade, once it was in flourishing condition, when our leading merchants met together daily for consultation and large sales and purchases were of every-day occurrence at the Mer chants' Exchange. Now it has degenera ted to a feebh• concern, holding no regular meetings and with but a small membership, who adhere to it from no desire to extend or benefit the trade of the city. but fur their own purposes and chiefly because of the facility with which capital can be nmde by sending forth the resolvaS of the little con clave as the sense of the Board of Trade of the great tuanutitcturing city of Pitts burgh. Of course our neighbors abroad are unaware of the sickly vegetation of the concern and the_docittnents emanating therefrom are taken as au expositiOn of the views of a majority of our merchants, when they are perhaps but the eliumination of some idea originating with one or two leading spirits and passed as resolutions by ten (or perhaps fewer) menahers. OUr own citizens know how much weight attaches to the proceedings of this august -body, knowing as they do that on more than one subject the report has been changed from day. to day by the prepon derance of opinion on one side or the other among the dozen present or by drumming up a majority for a measure one day and against it the next--which latter action is upset at a third meeting by a re consideratton—and sn on until the body is completely stultified and made the laughing stock of the entire commttnity.— We now desire that people abroad should know that the occasionalpromulgations of this body merely embody the views of a few, who do not reflect the sentiments of our merchants as a class—any further than the possible coincidence of the views of the few and the many. Such is the character of the Board of Trade that a public meeting called at its dusty and dilapidated rooms is almost cer tain to be a thilure—possibly from the antipathy of the public to so feeble an or ganization. We have attendA at least twenty public meetings on important sub jects there in the past few years and never saw more than fifty persons present—more frequently less than twenty. In all we have said we do not wish to be understood as making any allusion to par ticular persons or special occasions. We only state what is patent to every business man here, lest our city should at some fu ture time, as it has before, be misrepre sented or made to seem ridiculous through the agency of this effete concern. lu conclusion, we suggest that, with a view of infusing more life into the Board of Trade, 'that whenever it is pro posed to hold a meeting on any subject which concerns the prosperity of our city, the fact be duly announced, so that all in terests may be tepresented and that all desirous of participating may do so if they wish. A Good Well. By the report of the receiver of the Brewley well it appears that it yielded from the 13th of August, IStil, when it was struck, until the 20th of March. 1862, seven months and seven days. forty-eight thousand three hundred and eighty barrels of oil ! This. we understand, does not include some sixteen or eighteen hundred barrels of wastage. At the low price of tifty cents a harrel, this would give the sum of 524.190 as a product of the well in a. little over seven months; yet it is only regarded as a medium well. It is live hun dred and thirty-three feet deep, and is lo cated on the Buchanan farm on Oil Creek. Benefit of the Misses Anderson. The benefit of .T. H. Anderson, jr., who has astonished all visitors to Concert Hall by his wonderful rope trick attracted a very large audience last night.. The per formance exceeded any previous one in point of novelty and the new "bonnet trick" created an immense sensation. The entire audience seemed highly pleased throughout. To-night the Misses Ander son take a benefit, when new developments in second sight, new songs, new piano music and new tricks will be introduced. Prof. Anderson's entertainments seem to increase in attractiveness nightly and we therefore expect to see the house crowded t o- night. Patton Township Election. We are requested to announce the result of the late election in Patton township, as follows: Auditors—Win. Shaw, Eli W. Boyd; Supervisors—Robert Show, Robert Cunningham ; School Directors—Robert Clugston, James Robinson, Emanuel Kun kel ; Judge of Elections—Joseph Steven son;--Inspectors—John McClelland, Jas. Donaldson : Assessor—M. Zimmerman. Flitting. This, being the let of April is general moving day. and the household effects of many families will be conveyed from the obi to the new house. There will be more moviti; this year than some time past, as many are, owing to the absence of their protectors in the field, seeking small er houses. There will be any number of large houses vacant during the summer. Many took advantage of the pleasant weather and moved yesterday. The Marine Hospital. The statement that the U.S. Marine Hospital here is to be abolished has been denied in a note from the Seeretary of " the Treasury to Gen. Moorhead. The Secre tary says the rumors current here origina ted from the fact that the sanitary condi tion of 'the Marine Hospital is about to be re-organized. Insane patients are to be provided for elsewhere, but no other change-is contemplated at present. Gen. Negley. It is said this officer is to be made a Major-General. His command is now composed of the following: 78th and 79th Pennsylvania regiments, 38th Indiana 'reg. iment, Ist Wisconsin regiment, Col. Wyn koop's 7th regiment Pennsylvania Caval ry, Col. Baruett's Wisconsin Artillery of seven full batteries, and Capt. Palmer's company of Kentucky Cavalry. The Flag of the Seventh Ohio. A relative of Dr. Thomas Dickson. pass ed through the city yesterday; having in charge the flag of the Ohio Seventh, which was completely riddled with balls and the staff splintered at Winchester, but still came out with honor, having , been nobly protected by those who fought- under it.— The flag was examined by many at Dr. Dickson s office. The gentleman who took k through to Ohio was wounded in the head during the engagement. Heller. The first night of Mr. Heller's re-en gagement at the Theatre was a great" suc cesr. attracting a - numerous and select audience. His tricks were done with characteristic skill and the musical melange brought -down the house. To-night he gives a programme of great variety and one which cannot fail to interest every ' spectator. We advise a full attendance. stmt Long- Mayor , Drum had before him yesterday, morning. lOW dozen boys, arrested for loafing, on SundnY_lliealpg, ..obont.the churches and in the market house...

Oft :, , 0. itierduaritinanw. *mid Edition THE URI LATEST TELEGRAPH, WASHINOTON Cm, March 111.—f:. C. Baker, who has been for some time con nected with important interests of the Government, was to-day appointed by the War Department, a special agent to take ohiarge 01 all the abandoned rebel property in Virginia. The anion nt of such property is large. ft has already been stated that the Sec- rotary of the Treasury has issued instruc tions to the Treasury agents, collectors and surveyors on the Ohio and Mississippi, dis pensing with applications to the Secretary thr licences to trade, and authorizing the shipments of all goods not intended for the aid of the rebellion to all places occupied by our troops in the valley States.— The Secretary in his recent letter of in structions says, you will hereafter cease collecting any per centugo or fees for per-, mitt i ng transitund exchange ofmerchand ize between citizens of loyal States, and the loyal citizens of the insurrectionary sections of the country occupied or con trolled by forces of the United States, other than the usual charge of twenty cents for each permit so granted, and you will make no charge for permits for mer chandise forwarded from any place in a loyal State, to another in the sameor other like State, nor exercise any supervision over the trade between such States, except such as may be necessary to prevent sup plies of any description, from being fur nished to the insurgents. It is furthermore directed that no permits be granted for any articles forbidden by the military authori ties, to be transported into the territory oc cupied by forces of the United States. An order from the War Department calls attention to the very great careless ness shown by many detached officers in keeping Adjutant Generals office, ad vised of their movements and address, and directs the attention of officers com manding regiments and all commanders of Military Departments, etc., to the subject rifrturns. The exceeding importance of Rie infbrination derived from reports and returns which can in no other way be oh. tained, obliges the Secretary of war to re iterate the existing orders upon the sub ject and notify all eotumandin, officers that these orders must in futuu•e Ce punctually obeyed. Justice to enlisted men who are separated from their companies, regair,•s that they should have . with them descrip tive rolls, showing the pay due them, their clothing accounts and everything which I would be required in settling with the gov ernment, should they be discharged with out such papers the men cannot receive their• pay. C. Butler, of Ohio, has procured an or- I der from the War Department to have nor scattered dead who fell at the battle of Fort Donelson removed and buried with in the walls of the Fort. The House is Com mittee has acted upon 77 section of the lOU of the tax bill. The former embrace the general provisions, license manufac tured articles and products, auction sales. carriages, watches, piano fortes, billiard tables; plates, slaughtered cattle, sheep. and hogs.

Flag otlicer Dupont gives the fidlowing aceount of the disaster in Nlos.piito Casualties ha% e itet-urred to otileers and men lielott ! !itig lu two unlit , vessels of my fleet. Casualties as painful as they were unexpected. but the loss of the gallant lives has expiated the error of jtuknnent. which entlinsinAi.- zeal had induced. I ordered the Penguin. acting Lieut. eommanding S. A. Budd and the Henry Andrew, Acting Master S. W. Mather. to proceed to this place, the lat ter to cross the bar to establish all inside blockade and capture any rebel vessels there mid guard trom incendiarisin large quantities of live oak timber On the gov ernment lands cut and ready for shipment to which the Department haul called my attention. On reaching here my self on the twenty-second, I was board ed by the " Executive officer of the Penguin and informed that Lieut. Com manding Budd with acting master Mather, had organized an expedition from the two vessels, and had moved South ward through the inland passage leading to Mosquito Lagoon, passing Smyrna with flinr or five light boats, carrying in all some forty-three men. Soon after this report which I heard with anxiety, the results were developed. It appears that after going some fifteen or eighteen miles without any incident, and while no their return and in sight of the Henry Andrew, the order of the line being no longer observed, the two commanding officers quite in advance, landed under certain earthworks, which had been aban doned, or never armed, near a dense grove of live oak with under brush. A heavy and continuous fire was unex pectedly opened upon them from both these covers. Lieut. Commanding Budd and Acting Master Mather, with three of the fire men comprising the boats crew were killed, the remaining two wounded and made prisoners. As the other boats came up, they were also fired into, and suffered more or less. The rear boat of all had a howitzer, which could, however, not be properly secured or worked, the boat not being fitted for the purpose j and could therefore, be of little use. The men had to seek cover on shore; but as soon as it was -dark, Acting Master Mate M'lntosh returned to the boats, brought away the body of one of the crew who had been killed, all the arms, ammunition and flags, threw the howitzer into the river, passed close to the rebel pickets, who hailed, but elicited no reply, and arrived safely on board the Henry Andrew. On learning of this untoward event, I directed Com mander Rogers to send oft' the launch and cutters of this ship to the support of the Andrew. The boats crossed the bar at midnight, and the next morning the vessel was hauled close up to the scene ofthe late attack, but no enemy could be discovered. The bodies of Lieut. Budd and Acting Master Mather were received under a flag of truce. Lieut. Commanding Budd and Acting Master Mather were brave and de voted officers. The former commanded the Penguin in the action of the 7th of November, and received my commenda tion. • The latter, in prime of life:, was a man of uncommon energy and daring, and had no superior, probably, among the patriotic men, who have been appointed in the navy from the mercantile marine.

Shebrings the bodies of Capt. Budd, of the Penguin, and of Capt. Mather. who were both killed at Musquito Inlet, when the Bienville left. the general impiession was that the people of Florida were returning loyalty, and the rebel troops hail all left, or were making their way to other Southern States. The only place where any formidable (+- position to the United States forces was made at Mosquito Inlet, and that only on small boats from the Penguin and Henry Andrew.. Eight of our forces were killed and wounded. The extent of casualties on the rebel side is not known. BY LAST NIGHT'S MAIL Arrival of the Bienville from Florida. The steamer Rieucill.. Capt. Steedman. arrived here to-night. from St. Augustine. Florida, which place she left on Tuesday night. She brings the bodies of Capt. Budd, of the Penguin, anti Acting Master Matthew. of the steamer Hale. They lately went up the Mosquito Inlent on a reconnoissance in small boats. Suddenly a hundred Rebels, secreted on the bank ordered them to surrender. Captain Budd refused to do so. snapped his revolver and then fired a musket. The Rebels then fired, killing the above otticer and nearly all the men in the boats. The rest swam to the opposite shore and es caped. The Female Secessionists. The Commissioner on State prisoners had Madames Greenhow and Morris before them yesterday. The ladies avowed them selves unflinching Rebels and refused to avow any allegiance to the United States. The incorrigible rebels were of course re manded into custody. The commission will conclude its labors on Tuesday. Warrenton Occupied. Onr troops marched over from Warren ton Junction to-day, and took quiet poF,- SeRSiOll td Warrenton. They met with no resistance, and were jovially received by many of the inhabitants. Warrenton. Warrenton is the capitol of Fauquier county. Virginia, and is situated one hun dred miles northwest from Richmond. It is the terminus of the ‘Varrenton branch oft he I )range and Alexandria railroad.— l'od Mountain and Bald Ridge slope to the plain near this town. Warrenton is a beautiful town, and lies in a picturesque and produetive entintry and formerly had all soli% i!lntsiness. It is ten tniles from the Warrenton Junction; contains a title court house, three or four churches, two academies and two newspaper offices. Its population was about sixteen hundred at OW outbreak of the war. Burning of Great Bethel. WATTs . Cni:Etz. near Warwick, Va., March rebel forces under Gen. Magruder. previous to their evacuation of ilreat Bethel, set tire to the town about noon to-day, and eompletely destroyed it. leaving nothing but a mass of ruins. 'llls is another act of vandalism on their part. You need not be surprised to hear id their burning Yorktown in a few days. as such a course may naturally he expected. Order in Regard to Civilians. fhr St- rotary War has very proper ly issued strict orders to allow no civilians to visit Manassas. because of its interfer ing with military operations. Interference of Politicians. A committee of New York politicians visited the President. on Saturday. and endeavored to interefere kith the military movements. President Lincoln gave them the cold shmilder. and said when he de :fired their advice he would send for them. Tile Iliiiiiiiiupt Law.
