Andrew, of Mass., and others, that such policy would ai once aid recruiting, and give a pow- erful impetus to volunteering, especially in the New England States. ‘The Intelligencer further holds that the Presi- dent himself never believed in the «theory of paper proclamations asa means ef war or of emancipation,” and therefore “it remains to be seen whether the Presidentor his advisers have been the more sagacious in their anticipations under this head. He has left the latter without excuse or occasion for fault-finding, if the «loyal blacks’ do not now fly to our standards ‘like doves to the windows.” ‘The Republican, which has been industriously | endea, oring, to the extent of its freble sbility, to create the impression that there are dissen- sions between Gens. Halleck and McClellan, when it is well known that no such differences exist between these brave officers, has the ef- frontery to-day to allege that the radicals have had nothing to do with the management of the war or with the recall of Gen.

Whenever the Northern Goy- eruors can so fur dispense with points of eti- Quetie as to promptly forward troops on hand, and shall convince thymselyes that they shall not endanger their hopes of re-clection by en- forcing the draft for the remainder of the levy, the Generals named may have force enough to andertake such a movemeat.

The new pontoon bridge was doubtiess finished | last night. and we believe Burnside’s infantry crossed upon it this forenoon. Much of the rest of McClellan's army was yesterday in the im- mediate vicinity of Williamspert. Our pickets | occupy the country in Virginia three miles ont H from Harper's Ferry, where they meet those ot | the Rebels. The latter are believed to have but | an inconsiderabie torce—mere picket guards— near that point, and to be in force principally | at Winchester. It is evident tous that there will be a moyament an McClellan's part so svon as his srmy is properly supplied by the Quartermaster’s Department, &c. Our troops are in the best possible spirits, and eager again to get at the Rebela, who must be suffering dreadful torments under the influence of the sharp cold nights of that region at this season upon their half-clothed-and-fed bodies. An- other week of such nights as thoy experienced there, doubtless, Inst night, will compel thom either to attack or move south, it strikes us. THE POSITLOD s GEN. SIGEL. . In view of the fact that numerous of our German friends are complaining of the recent transfer of some of ‘Gen. Sigel’s troops from his command, we haye to say that they cry before they are hurt; insomuch as his force is doubtless now being increased very heavily. ‘We shall not be surprised in a very short time to find it fifteen or sixteen thousand stronger under current orders for its increase, FOR THE NORTH WEST. Among the troops surrendered at Harper's Ferry was Colonel Maulsby’s regiment. He was to leave Annapolis to-day for Chicago, it being understood that the above troops are to serve against the hostile Sioux of the North. west. ARRLVED.

The address pres@nted to the President was written by Gov. Andrew, and signed by all ex- cept Gov, Bradford. Itexpri srs, first, acotdial personal and official respect for the President; ! 2d, determination, under all circumetancra, to support and maintain his constitutional an. thority, rpeaking for themselves and people of } their respective States; 3d, pledging their aia | in all measures to bring the warte an early termination, and that it should be prosecuted to ultimate victory, unless all Rebels volunta- rily return to thei constitutional duty and obedience; 4th, congratulates the President up- on his proclamation, believing It will do good As a measure of justice and sound policy; and, Sth, concludes with a reference to those who have fought our battles. In the conference at Altoona various details | Were discussed, which will he submitted vers bally to the President and Secretary of War. They agreed to recommend an army of reserves of notless than 100,000 men, to be drilled and disciplined at home, and to be called out as sudden exigencies may require—their term of service to be twelve months, unless sooner dis. charged. No dispute occurred, nor any improper warmth of debate, all present being animated by a cordial spirit of unity in the support of the Government and the President. The main object was to make the relations of all loyal men more close. Gov. Bradford was the only one not fully convinced of the wisdom of the emancipation proclamation. Contrary to published statements, there was no proposition offered or suggestion made touching the removal of General McClellan ; nor was there any &s to the promotion of Fre- mont to the head of the Army, nor as to the fr. ture assigninent of that gentieman.

This is the nearest point to Washington at which they have a force of that sizeeven. The fact that | they are rebuilding the abovementioned bridge looks as though they seriously propose to dis. pute with us the possession of the country be- | tween the Rappahannock and Potomac, in- | Cluding the upper valley.
