The law in relation to Substitutes Yesterday in the House of Representatives a bill was reported from the Committee on Military Affairs amendatory of the bill recently passed upon the subject of substitution in the army. The amendatory bill contemplates a distinction in favor of those persons who are now, and who were during the year 1863, engaged by their own labor, or a superintending the labor of others, in producing supplies for the army and the country. The committee reporting the bill recommended its immediate passage. The usual question of postponing it and placing it upon the calendar was decided in the negative, and the bill taken up for consideration but before a direct vote was had upon it the morning hear expired, and the House went into secret session. There can be but little doubt that the bill will pass substantially as it came from the committee.

I can state from my personal observation that vessels are constantly arriving here, ostensibly from New York, with cargoes which are immediately reshipped on notorious blockade runners. How these vessels escaped custom-house surveillance is a mystery which the proper officers in your city alone can solve. Miscellaneous. There is nothing of importance from the army of the Potomac. Gen. Schofield, with his staff, has left for Knoxville, where he is to take command. Dr. Mackenzie, a well known citizen of Baltimore, died last week. There are now in construction in the United States twenty-five armored vessels at a cost of $365,000 each. They are to be done in six months. It is stated that the army of the Potomac, like Gen.

nkee Fleet Inoperative at Wilmington. The British steamship Corsica arrived at New York Friday, from Havana 16th, Via Nassau, 18th. By this arrival we learn from the Nassau Guardian that the steamers Alice, Wild Dayrell, Hercine, Pet, and Despatch--the latter commanded by the noted Capt, Coxetter, arrived from Wilmington previous to the 16th, and that, with the exception of the Despatch, they had sailed again for Wilmington. The Nassau correspondent of the New York World, writing on the 17th, says: There is, perhaps, no place throughout the world where an American--one who is ready to share the varied fortunes of the republic — is subjected to more humiliating spectacles than here. The events of the past few days are sufficient to call for the immediate interference of the United States Government.
