Mobile, October 3.--Brute Butler has issued an order (No. 76) requiring all persons in New-Orleans, male or female, eighteen years of age or upwards, who sympathize with the Southern Confederacy, to report themselves by first October, with descriptive lists of their property, real and personal.
If they renew their allegiance to the United States Government, they are to be recommended for pardon; if not, they will be fined and imprisoned, and their property confiscated.
The policemen of the city are charged with the duty of seeing that every householder enrols his property in the respective districts.--Richmond Inquirer, October 6.
