r No. 77, A. and I. G. Office (current series). To this end he will direct the several officers in charge of arsenals, workshops, depots, etc. to turn over to the nearest enrolling officers, by lists showing their ages, occupations, and residences, such proportion of their employees (includingcon-tractors and employees under them) of the classes above referred to as will constitute in the aggregate one-fifth of the whole number in the said classes, according to returns in his office of Sept. 30th, 1864. Duplicates of such lists will be sent to the Generals of Reserves of the States, and triplicates to the Chief of Ordnance. Three days are allowed for the execution of this Order after its reception at any post or station of the Ordnance Department. II. The Chief of the Niter and Mining Bureau will, in like manner, turn over, on similar lists, one-fifth of all men of the classes specified in General Order No. 77, employed in iron, lead, copper, and coal mines, and all service appe

r, at Headquarters. He was like all of that class, patriotic and one-sided, attributing to the Southerners every fiendish passion; in support of which he had accumulated all the horrible accounts of treatment of prisoners, slaves, etc., etc., and had worked himself into a great state. Evening. 10 P. M. I have got to Baltimore and can't go a step farther; for all day have I been on the Weldon railroad with General Meade, and I must slap to bed, for I am most sleepy, though all right. September 30, 1864 If the General will ride out at 8.30 A. M., and get back at 10.30 P. M., and fight a good part of the day, how am I to feel wakeful and lively to write to you? I am very well and getting stronger; was in part of the battle beyond the rail-road; but only had a few bullets and one solitary cannon-ball in my neighborhood. This going from Beverly to battle is quite a sharp contrast. Our advantage was signal and important if we have good luck in holding on, which I think we shall. Th

its provisions. The chief difficulty apprehended in connection with our finances, up to the close of the war, resulted from the depreciation of our treasury notes, which was to be attributed to the increasing redundancy in amount and the diminishing confidence in their ultimate redemption. The financial condition of the government, near its close, is very correctly represented in the report of the Treasury Department. The total receipts of the treasury for the two quarters ending September 30, 1864, amounted to $415,191,550, which sum, added to the balance, $308,282,722, that remained in the treasury on April 1, 1864, formed a total of $723,474,272. Of this total, not far from half—that is to say, $342,560,327—were applied to the extinction of the public debt; while the total expenditures were $272,378,505, leaving a balance in the treasury on October 1, 1864, of $108,435,440. The sources from which this revenue was derived were as follows: Four per cent registered bonds, act
