'SAN FRANCISCO, July 20.-The whaling bark Milo has arrived, in twenty-eight days fr^n ?the Arctic, with the crews of several whalers de? stroyed by the pirate Shenandoah, last month. Thc whalers Edward Casey, i Hector, Abigail, Euphrates, William Thompson, Thornton, Jireh Swift, and the Susan and Abigail were cap? tured and most of them burned. Th?

The Charleston Courier publishes the following letter from Gen. Ben? nett, commandinglhat post, addressed to John E. Carew, Esq., in reply to an application made to the military authorities for the surrender of the jail. Mr. Carew is Sheriff of the Dis? trict, and proposed to resume his of? ficial functions under the recent pro? clamation of Gov. Perry. We publish the letter of Cien. Bennett, as indi? cating the course of the authorities in similar cases: HBADQ'RS CITY OF CHARLESTON, Charleston, S. C., July 31, 1865. ./. E. Carew, Esq.-Sm: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of this date, in f Ol ming n;e that, in compliance witli tie proclamation * of Gov. Perry, you desire to resume your.'duties as sherill', and take possession of tho jail, now in tlie hands of the United States mili? tary authorities. I would respectfully inform you that any attempt upon your part to exor? cise the functions of sheriff would directly conflict with my duties under existing orders as military comman? dant mi this city and sub-district. The State is, at present, under mar? tial law, and thc proclamation which appears in tho Courier, of July 31st, purporting to be issued by Governor Perry, hut which may be, like many newspaper reports, erroneous or mi? tt ithori/.ed, eau have no influence upon or control over my actions, except I am directed to recognize it by my supe? rior ollie* rs, under whose immediate orders I am serving. Should theprocla matio.1 referred to above prove genu? ine, and its policy sustained u? Wash? ington, I have no doubt that the mili t iry authorities in this Department will receive instructions for their guidance in the effort which the Government is making to restore the State to civil rule. Respectful! v, vour obedient servant, W. T. BENNETT. Brevet Brigadier-General, Coni'd'g Post First Sub-District, P. S.-I enclose a copy of an ex? tract of an order issued February 19, 1800, declaring the city under martial law, and which order I have received no instructions to revoke. , W. T.
