‘THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON CITY: WEDNESDAY...SEPTEMBER 23, 1562. i @7 BEADING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. BEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- G@RAPHIO AND OTHER MATTER. SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. | | | | i ‘The Intelligencer argues that, now the Presi- i dent, under the pressure of the radicals, has issued & proclamation of emancipation, they {the radicais) will not yet be satisfied, but will, as demonstrated already by their utterances, go and the removal of McClellan, Hatleck and Buell, to be replaced by Fremont, Hunter, ti those of that stamp. The Republican, ia its usual unhappy, snarl- ing, envious mood towatds its neighbors, insists that its cotemporaries who either oppose or do not approve the President's emancipation proc- lamation are equally sctuated by the worst motives. We wish our neighbor better dizes- tion and & more amiable temper. Tus REFUBLICAN’s ASSAULT ON THE STar. ‘The Republican of this morning takes occasion to say: _ “The Star of last evening was as silent asthe Ve.upor the ——— of tho President. 5 ry toe much of a courtier, and tou long habit- uated to ‘kiss the foot that is on the throne,’ to be ready to condemn an act done by a Presideat actually in office. It has been a Vicar of Bray too long to do a thing of thal kind; at any rate Without great deliberation. But while De«i- tating te condemn the President's action, thé Star equally hesitates to approve it. That PSper enjoys private as well as public patronage: and the proj of the ——— of this metropolis which dislikes the nts pro- ¢clamation is too large to be rashly offended, ‘wpon the Star's tactics of lose and gain, before determining whieh side of a ques- ton totake.” ‘The Star is silent on the subject of the Proc- lamation, simply and plainly for the reason that whatever doubts we may have as tw the ‘wisdom of the policy entered upon by Provi- © dent Lincoln, to urge them now that that policy is a foregone conclusion cannot be advan. tageous to thy national cause.

ARRIVAL OF PRISONERS Last evening, the steamer Mary Washington arrived from Annapolis with 675 exchanged prisoners, from Camp Parole, at Annapolis. They are nearly all Pennsylvanians, who were taken in different engagements, and had been imprisoned before being paroled, at Belle Island, Richmond. They were in charge of Lieut. Col. W. L. Curry, 106th Pennsylvania, and are sent here to be mustered for pay and clothing, they being badly in want of the lat- ter, They were escorted to the Soldicrs’ Rest, near the depot: At a later hOur the steamer Kennebec sr- tived, bringi about 519 paroled prisoners, who were at ce landed and sent to the Sol. diers’ Rest. They were also in charce of Lt. Col. Curry, and number mos Pe lya- nians. It is understood tha! they all have twen exchanged, and will at once be mustered for pay and clothing.

McClellan is pushing the campaign to the en. Tire satisfaction of the authorities here.

ANOTHER BUDGET OF WAR NEWS FROM REBELDOM. EE CEE DETAR WHAT THE RICHMOND PAPERS SAY OP THE DOINGS OF THE REBEL “ LIBE- RATING ARMY.” aa eenipanpesie THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF WEDNESDAY'S BATTLE. nas Weare in possession of 3 flaming « Extra,” sued by the Richmond Enquirer Saturday af- noon, Sept. 20. It contains the following: FROM THE LIBERATING ARMY¥—THE BATTLE IN MARYLAND — ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS — THE SURRENDER OF MAEPEL’S PERRY—OP- FICIAL RKYORT OF GEN. JACKSON, ETC., ETC. We are ensbied to give some authentic intel. ligence of the operations of our Army beyond arper’s Ferry, as late as Tuesday night last. The battle of Sunday, the Mih, which has been varionsly called the ie of Boonesboro’ and Middletown, took p' in fact, between these two places, where the turnpike road crosses the Blue Ridge. General Lee, in march- ing west from Frederick city, had ted Gen- erals D. H. Hill and Stuart at the 's of the mountain, to hold back MeCletla forces, whice were advancing to the relief of Harper's Ferry. Harper’s Ferry haying held out somewhat longer than was expected, and McCiellan’s adyance having become rapid, General Lee suspected that he inight attempt to force the passage of the mountain, and fall upon the rear of General McLaws, who was occupying the Maryland Heighis, and assisting in the reduc. tion of Harper's Ferry. He accordingly re- is: | turned with General Longstreet’s division, on Sunday, to General Hill's support. On approaching Boonesboro’ couriers were met trom Hill, announcing thatthe enemy were pressing him in strong force at the main pass on the Frederick and Hagerstown road, and that he required immediate reinforcements. Longstreet thereupon hurried his march, and very soon had his troops in povition. By this time Hili’s right had been forced back;and here the gallant Gen. Gariand had fallen while ral- lying his brigade. General Longstreet soon suceseded in re- storing onr right, which afterwards success. tully resisted to the yery last the efforts of the enciny. ‘The enemy's superior numbers enabled him tomake hir line outstretch ours, beth on the right and left. His rigitt reached the summit mountan to our left, annoying us consid. from that direction. The battle raged untilafier night. The ene- my’s determined effurt to force a passage had been successfully resisted; and the object he had in view, the relief of Harper's Ferry, was now rendered impo-sible of accomplishment. Late in the evening information was gained that the enemy had obtained possession of Crampten’s Gap, on the direct road from Frederick City to Sharpsburg. This enabled him still to threaten MeLaws’ rear. Gen. Lee having received information that Harpers Ferry would probabiy fall next morning, de- termined to withdraw Gens. Longstreet and Hill from their position, and retire to Sharps- burg, about ten miles north of Harper's Ferry, and about tem miles westot Bconesboro’. Lee's deterinination was rendered the more expedient from the fact that Gen. Sumner’s corps of tresh roops had come up to relieve their wearied comrades, while on our side, we were without any such aid. The trains were accordingly sent off first, and our army followed, and «bout day-break Monday morning our position was taken in front of Sharpsburg. Our march was entirely uninterrupted by the enemy. McCiclian’s troops did not pass through the morntun ¢ap until eight o'clock of Monday morning, and about’ p.m., of the same day, their advance reached a position in frontof our lines at Sharpsburg. They coutinued to gather up their forces; but up tO Tuesday night had Made no attack. Gen. Lee also remained inactive, waiting for the junction of Jackson's forees. A part had reached him on Tuesdey evening, and the rest were near by, save Gen. A. P. Hill's Division, which had been Ieft at Harper's Ferry to guard the place and protect the public property.

Lindsay Watker reached thi yy on this (Saturday) morning, dircet from Harper's Fer- ry, whieh he left on Wednes: reports that everything was quiet there at that time. We were hauling away the Iast of the stores which we captured there. For this pur- pose we were using the enemy’s horses, 1,400 = el fellows, that became ours at Harper's i Try. ‘There has been no fighting since the eapture of Harper's Ferry on Monday morning.

A great bactle had also been forght, in which Jackson and Lonzstreet were in some way disposed of, and 10,000 of our wen taken prisoners! The circulation of these statements in our city caused considerable anxiety; for littleas weexpect from the yerac.ty of ourenemics, we were not entirely prepare t tor such very extraordinary falsification. We had forgotten, however, their present desperate forty Mrs. Partington said that when she wants ys she makes it fer herself, the North hay = similar resource for its vietorics.
