W.HiiiN(iroN, July S.-Alger's decla
tion that lie and Pingiee are not in a

by republican politicians with whom he
had conferred during hif absence from
Washington. He probably learned that
if he wanted to retain any commence
whatever of the republican party and of
the administration, which he refuses to
rid of hiuikelf, he ought, in all decency,
to declare thut he is not In a combina
tion with Pingree, and lias hastened to
avail himself of the advice. Although

the general belief is that he has made

V.hui.ngton, Jnly8. An order of tlio
secretary of war, issued today, sends the
Oregon regiment to Astoria on thetrans
ports Newport mid Ohio. There they
will be transferred to river steamers
chartered by the quartermaster's depart
ment and taken to Vancouver for muster
out. It is etated at the wnr department tliot
the reason why the transports do not go
up the Columbia river is because two
days will bu saved, as they can im
mediately return to San Francisco, and
take troops back to Manila. Jf the troops
are mustered out and paid off at Van
couver, they will carry their urms with
them to that place.
Under the order of today, they will
not even lie unloaded at Sun Francisco,
and consequently cannot lie mustered
