The following summary embraoes the most im port ant domestic news Impoitant fiom Wahhikgtok. Strmgeut orders have been issued by the War Department in regard to officers and privates of the artuv absent from their posts. We copy from the New Tork Times as follows Was DiPAKTMtUT, Washington, D.

July 31. Ths absence of officer, end privates from their duty under various pretexts, while receiving pay at great expense and bnrthen to the Government, max! it necessary that efficient measure, be taken to enforce their return to doty, or that their places be supplied by those who will oot take pay while rendering no service. This II. moreover, tends greatly to disconrage the patriotic impulse or those who would oontributt to up port the families of fat thiol soldiers. it is therefore or no re a oy me riesioenit 'ir if That oa Monday, the lltn day or A a trust, all leaves of absence and furloughs by whomsoever given, on less by the War Department, are revoked and absolutely annulled, and all officers capable of service are nut red forthwith to jjin their regiments noder a penalty of dismissal from the service, or such penalty as a Court Martial may reward, nnleas ths absence be occasioned by lawful cause.

The order of the President compelling sol diers absent from the army by fnrlongb, or those who bad been sick and are now conva lescent, to return to tbolr regiments, will have the most extraordinary effect in swelling the ranks of the army. It will beat the recruiting sergoants completely. It will add, in a few days, fifty thousand men to the several corps of the army of the Union.

This vigorous adminislra- tion of the officers of the War Department will inspire new confidence in the tu cess of the struggle to restore the Union and put down faotinn North and South. POSTAGE STAMPS FOR CIRCULATION. Humors have been going around tbat postage stamps, in consequence of the expected Issue of the new kind from the Treasury Department, are not as good as they were. Tbat is a mis take. The stamps, If not injured or defused if not pasted upon any othor snlwtance, and if In a condition to be alined to IjlUrs, or worth what their faos declares for they will be deemed and exchanged for the new postage stamps to be issued by the Treasury as the circulating medium for change, in dencmina tions of five cents, ten cents, twenty-five cents and fifty cents.

The object in limiting the issue to these denominations is to preserve the character of our decimal system. The present postage stamps are just as good for all ordinary purposes as silver or cent coinage. Tnere wi lie no three or one cent stamps, for their place will be supplied by the nickel cent, which is In great abundance. WHY DOS'! YOILGO YOURSELF? We are tired of committees for promoting enlistments." We are tired of the splurges of John Moneybag, who tells the world through newspapers that be has given soldier's wife a bushel of beans. We are tired of George Curtis Noyes, and othors, who visit Washington to Instruct the President bow to conduot the war.

If Mr. Noyes wants the rebellion suppressed, let him go into the field. If the gentlemen who constitute the heavy standing round committees wish to promote enlistments, let them go into the field. That is the way to suppress the rebellion. We are weary of speeohes.

We are weary of splurges. We are weary of Union Park gatherings and BoBtou Common gatherings. Fill up regiments without further noise. Forward March That is the way the Bouth does. Nearly every able bodied man of this region is in the field.

Those not in the organised rebel armies are serving guerrillas, and river and lake sharp-shooters. Why not give ns a regiment of editors? Those gentlemen who discuss the conduot of the war preferred. Fall in, men A COMPLIMENT FROM JOHN BULL. It Is not often that John Bull does us justice much more rarely does he pay us a compliment; most rarely of all are the I.ondou Times, the Morning Herald and the Saturday Review made the vehicles of his unwonted g.aoe But now those journals are heaping praiseB upon us in almost every number. For they rarely now mention American affairs without reviling Gen.

Butler for giving up modest women who happen to speak to a man whom they do not know, to the lusts of bis soldiers." This is about aa true as tbat be quenched the sun in the Gulf of Mexico; but those who believe or profess to believe it, are placed in a most unexpected position by the vent, or the testimony of every man who bu been in New Orleans siuua the issue of the order In question, foroign or native, robel or loyal, Is that the city is a model of good order and, in partioular, that any woman can now walk from one end of It to another, day or night, not only without insult, but without annoyance of any kind which is a uoyal state of things for New Orleans. If (Jen. Butler's order meant what our British frlonds will insist that it meant, what toalimony is this to the self-restraint and decorum of Lis troopa. Of what otner troops in he world, regular or vol-nnteer, could the same be said REAR ADMIRAL FARRAdUT. Farragut is not forgotten.

Engaged as a midshipman when a youth in the American navy, he did what lie could manfully to defeud bis country agaiust the machinations of haughty England, ile is the idol today of the American uavy. "Farragut and victory" is the battle-ory of the Yankee tars. The hero of New Orleans (the most extensive and best managed battle In all naval history) places blm at ths head of the navy by ini.rit and the length of his faithful public servioe places him in that exalted position by rank. Farragut has sacrificed more for bis country than some othor men who cora-niaud our fleets. His family connections are known to be Southern his wife a native of No.
