on concerning the proceedings of the
resbyterians of the South at their meeting
Augusta, Georgia t lp,the early part of

as not, if we understand the call for it
fight, a meeting of a General Assembly,

to alter. and amend, as might seem to be ne

in therdectrine or discipline of the Church,
we d GAO - k,now; but we thiuk-it•probable
that the Conlession' of Fajta:aid- form of

many of the changes proposed in the "New

concile this statement with the telegraphic

Dr. McFarland had beeneilented Moderator,
except by the supposition that Dr. McFar
land was Chairman of a preliminary meet

and Dr. Palmer the permanent Moderator.
It was determined that-the title of the new
body should he, " ThaGenekal Assembly of
the Presbyterian, Church, in the Confeder

mittees, consisting each of nine persons,
were appointed on Foreign Missions, Do
mestic Missions, Education and Publics- ,

South Carolina; the eenond in New-Or
leans, ; the third in Memphis,
Tennessee; the fourth in Richmond, Vir

:6ga Missions, and the Rev. Dr. Leyburn,
our fbrmer associate in the Pocayteria,m,
Secretary of, the Committee on Publication.
'The Rev, Dr...raisin:well reported Ad

JAN. I, 18432.—Gen. Lane has been assigned
a command in Kansas and Western Missouri. It
is understood that he will, with , the approbation
of the Government, make the experiment of em
ploying slaves of rebels, in his military opera
tions in the West, using them in the transporta
tion, and commissary departments mainly. By
taking hand-mills, it, is thought that slaves can
grind corn enough daily to subsist the army
any where in Arkansas or Texas.
Senator Ilarlan's bill to establish Provisional
Governments in the Rebel States, will, if passed,
make Territories of South Carolina, North Caro
lina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama,Mississippi,
Louisiana, Texas, Arkansae and Tnnessee, with
every incident of Territorial condition. It, will
cut up the - international State slave-trade, root
and branch, and free all slave's hereafter 'born,
and will devote all the -public lands in those
States to paying military bounties to the soldiers
end sailors who shall be employed in the suppres
sion of - the rebellion.
Gen. Benham has been released from arrest,
and ordered to duty at once.
In a letter to the American Minister at St. Pe
tersburg, forwarded•by the last steamer, Prince
ortohaeoff says : "The Emperor has never ceased
to avow his hopes for the grandeur of the Amer

The Senate Judiciary Committee will soon re
port a scheme of emancipation of the slaves of
rebels, in accordance with the, reaommendation
of the President. It will probably meet the ap
proval of a majority of that' body,.as the ultra
features advocated by the radicals will be ex
chided.
Gen. Philip St: George Cooke *as doubtless
the rebel ringleader of whose death by suicide
we apprised you two days ago Government had
received information. Ho was a West Pointer,
and was esteemed . an able officer. He had com
mand of the Department of the Potomac before
Beauregard assumed it, and
.was recently ap
pointed a Brigadier General under him.
The total amount expended by the Government
in the purchase of firearms since the beginning
of the rebellion is twenty-two million dollars. .
Col. Schuyler, who purchased arms in Europe
for the Government, has reported at Washington:
The entire purchase of arms abroad amounts to
near three hundred thousand stand. The arms
oughtlo be good, as the highest price was paid—
averaging, it is said, $l6 a gun—making about
five millions of dollars' worth.
The suspension of specie payments by the
banks will favor the adoption -of Secretary
Chase's scheme of finance. It relieves Govern
ment of the odium of substituting a pipei for 'a
hard money 'circulation, all circulation being
paper now. Government can give the country a
good Nationalourienoy in place of that of limited

Auliel S. Dickinson, in his lecture, en Tuesday
night, declared himself in favor of absolute and
immediate confiscation of the rebels' property,
and the enfranchisement of slaves by, act of gen
greas. The Inielligencer quotes his sentences?nP
parently with satisfaction.
On Friday night last, Horace Greely delivered
a leetureyst theSmithtionian'lnstitute; Washing
ton. The Pregident and. Secretary Chase, with
Secretary Cameron's Family, and nearly half of
Congress, were present. Mr. Greely boldly pro
claimed that the real object of the war should be
the destruction etelavery. .

permission to pass our lines.
Six rebel prisoners were sent . to headquarters
o-dtlY; bidet McLean, ProVost Marshal at-Alex
andria. They were taken by our pickets on the
left 'wing of our army. Their information is
deemed of high. value, and stringent measures
were" taken to ,prevent all communication with
them. The rebels are expecting an advance of
our army along the whole line. They are more
demoralized than ever before, by discords among
their public men.. Gen. Magruder is believed to
have been relieved of his command at Yorktown,
And Gen. Wise, who has.been quiet since his re
turn from Western Virginia,is expe,cted to as
81111213 command there, and if not there, at Fred
erick. There is a well-founded belief of serious
disaffection to the rebel government at Charleston,
amounting almost to insurrection, by reason of
the apparent abandonment of the South Carolina
coast to National invasion, .and the immense de-,
struction of property owners have willingly con
signed to`the flames. Thiy have destroyed not
less than len million dollars worth o£ cotton,
which at, last accounts theywere deploring, as
they supposed the blockade was about to, be
raised by England, and they :might have shipped
and sold it. They were holding Jeff. Davis re
sponsible for these disastrous losses, and many
citizens were bold.enough to sarthat the old
government was better than the new.
The Sub-Committee of Ways,and Means are ma
turing a general tax and tariff bill, to meet the
necessities of Government`under the present fail
ure of loans. Of course the public revenue must
be immensely increased, and the people must be
prepared to feel the real burdens of war.
The Senate have just received a confidential

ed English politicians;• settle all doubts as to the

sition on the part of the United States 'for an ar
bitration would enable the peace party :there to
avert hostilities. The ,return of the rebel pris
oners even upon, the ground stated in Mr. Sow

patches, has been carefully investigated: ,Seve

sitions, are implicated as the correspondents who
are in the habit of furnishing important inform

to within six miles of the Oharleston-ltailroad:
A. flag of truce was received from the rebels re- !
questing permission, to bury their dead, and an
hour was granted for the purpose, when they fell
back upon their fortifications, which are said to be
very extensive and defended by from 14000 to
12,000•'men under Gen. Pope. Their loss is un
known. Our force was 4,600 men, and vie had
only eight wounded, including Major Watson, f

Stevens now holds possession of the .main -land,
and awaits reinforcements.

Finally they beat a hasty. retreat out of .the town
as we charged through it. Their supplies, con
sisting of 350 barrels of flour, 300 salteffbeeves;
8,000 barrels of salt, largo quantities of sugar,

plete guns-are being made daily. This establish
ment hali a contract for 600, and the probability
is that the Government will extend the number; itte
additional ones to be 4i inch. guns,
.and to weigh
over I,2oo,pounds. Recent experiments at the
Works have developed the faet, that guns of this,
calibre can be rolled and riflee.with as much
ease as the Awes now beingmanufactured. Shells
for these guns, have been made, at these works,
with a papiet Inache base to fit in the grooves, in
