THE EVENING STAR. * ,T ASHINGTON CITY: ¥ oat. -NOVEMBER 21, 1262. OO RBADING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. os OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- | @RAPHIC AND OTHNER MATTER. S7 The New Doliar Weekly Star, fuller than ever of Metropolitan news and gossip, and choice literary reading, is now on our counuT ready for delivery to the public. Ithas recently been greatly enlarged and improved, and now undoubtedly presents mach more matter for the same amouat of money than any other weekly in the country. Embraced in its enter- taining contents are the following articles : ‘A well digested compend of sil the military operations and movements for the past week; News from Burnside’s Army; The forward movement: Affairs at Aquia Creek and along the line; Rebel movements in Virginia; An unrivaled military budget, and military af- fairs snd movyetaents North South and West. Cheering news from Texas—the whole coast in the hands of the Federals; Important news ‘om Missia-ippi and the Gulf, Operaticns the U.S. Navy; Intercepted letters from Southern officers, and news generally from zie. Graerai matters at home and abroad, The as- » pectof American affairs in Europe; Opinions of the European press, Telegraphic news; Items and clippings from the press; Wit and humor, local news; &c., &c. “A Plain Woman's Story"—a very interesting tale, Poetry, Interesting descriptive reading matter; and a budgrt of Agricultural, Horti- cultural and Household matters and recipes. This is just the paper above all others for per- sons sojourning in the National Metropolis to send to their friends at a distance. Price only three cents per coy, or @1 per annum, postage prepaid by stamps when so arranged. - +08 SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. ‘The Intelligencer notices the statement of a French military authority now traveling in the United States, to ,pe effect that “the war in this country is a war entirely devoid of all hope of aresuit,” and says, “It will be forGen. Burn- side and Gen. Rosecrans, under the direction of the General-in-chief, to show the fallacy of this latter prediction.” The Chronicie is without editorial to-day. The Republican is devoted to the Star. ——_—_+-a00- MISSOURI. ‘The radical pressare in error, we apprehend, in congratulating themselves upon the alleged success of abolitionism in the recent Missouri congressional election; as but a single rem- ber—Mr. Blow—has been elected to the next House from that State (instead of five, as they represent) who will be likely to aid abolition schemesof legislation. Four of the rest of Mis- Souri’s members are avowed advocates of the adoption of the President's original views upon the subject of getting rid of slavery in the bor- der States. We sincerely wish we could include all the rest of the delegation in the same cate- gory. But to favor the suppression of slavery in the borde? States by action of their own peo- ple, with fair compensation to the owner, with wise and effective measures to make the de- ported negroes continue of industrial value to the whole Union, and with due care not to per- mit the change of their condition and location to work incalculable mischief throughout the North, is by no means to favor the current reyo- Iutionary views of radicalism. Thus all but a single Representative in the next Congress from Missouri will probably be found voting con- sistently for measures looking to the restoration Of the old Union in fact, as well as in name; tor the continned supremacy cof the old Constitu- tion, and against everything tending to the eventual establishment over the land of the abolition despotism, pure and simple, which radicalism would ezect upon the ruins of the Government of the United States. GeseRat MCCLELLAN tn New York.—Gen. McClellan visited New York city on Wednes- day evening Iast. He was accompanied by Mrs. McClellan, Gen. Marcy, Col. Wrizht, Lt. Col. Hudson, and Lieut. Col. Radowitz, of his stall. Yeeterday morning Gen. McClellan paid his reepects to Gen. Scott, who is stopping at the same hotel. The interview was of a private character. . Hen. Reverdy Jobnson, of Md., Senator Mec- Dougall, of California, Judge N Ison, Mrs. Stephen A. Dougtas, and Hon. Lyman Tresain, guests of the hotel, all paid their respects to the iNustrious soldier; also, Rear Admiral String- bam, Lieut.Worden, and Gen. and Mrs. Angur wr It will be remembered that as Kirby Smith's Division ot the Rebel army leay- ing Kentucky. some of the pickets captured and hanged, in the vicinity of Cumberland Gap, Captain King and fifteen other loyal citizens On Thursday, the 6th, a party of loyal men Visited the vicinity of Hackney’s Corae and a half miles from Riz Rockeastis and captured a party of nine men, different corps of the Rebelarmy. The Were held in custody but a short tir and then were executed upon atree not far from the scene of the outrage perpetrated «a short time ago by Kirby Smith's pickets. Isternat Revenex Decis: — Check: Stomps.—Reepecting the liability to s “mp duty of checks drawn by bankers, brokers and others, on themselves, in the adjustment of outside accounts, the Commissioner of internal Revenue decides that such checks are subject to stamp duty. SF Gov. Yates and Hon. Mr. Arnold, of Ili- nois, had an interview with President Lincoln yesterday morning, during which they repre- sented the necessity of so enlarging the Lilinois and Michigan canal that gunboats may beable to pass between the Mississippi river and the great lakes 2 Dr. Warren Webster, of the regular army, Who hashad charge of the Douglas Hospital in this city fora year past, has been relieved from that duty and ordered to report to Gen Burnside. ee ®7 About three thousand troops arrived a Oimeinnati on Saturday, on their Way from Gallipolis to Memphis. Most of them left the same evening, and the others on Sunday noon. Sar = Seen Sven onal Rate 7 Capt.

The rain commence@on Saturday evening last throughout the West, and as far as we have been able to learn, has contiqued tu fall there up to this time. It will soewell all the Western rivers at any time navigable, as to permit the use of them by our army transportation stenmers and gunboats. Thus, at will again render the Cumberland pavi- gable to Nashville, and thus immensely aid the operations of Rosecrans’ army, which must have been much embarrassed of late, doubticss, by having to rely almost entirely upon the now rickety Lonisville and Nash- yille railrond for transportation from the Mis- sissippi and Ohio. In the east it will render the Potomac speed- ily unfordable anywhere within the region in weather will which the Rebels may have a penchant for | cressing the river in farce. Moreover, such is the chafacter of the soil in the region between Fredericksburg and Richmond—a very sandy joam—that it will not materially injure the | roads there for army transportation. They are far less liable to become unavailable from mud, than the roads either of the Piedmont region or of the swampy Peninsula. STONEWALL, _ We bave a rumor this forenoon that Stone- wall Jackson was about Winchester on the day before yesterday with forty thousand men; a story in which we place no reliance whatever. He iss completely estopped by the current rain from venturing araid into Maryland as though the river was guarded by hundreds of thousands of troops. He will venture no attack upon Harper's Ferry or in this direction with ferty thousand men, enly because he knows well that that number would be tar too swall to give him a chance of success in either direc- tion. Our belief is that he is well on his way to join Lee’s army with the main portion of his force; leaying in the Valley and in front of Washington only sufficient troops to scout around the Union lines in both localities. MAJOR GENERAL FITZ JONN PORTER. The charges against (teu. Fitz John Porter, to be investigated by the new Court of Luquiry that assembled here yesterday, relate entirely to the famous report of Gen. Pope, which found its way into the New York Herald, in the shape ofa letter from one of that journal's regular correspondents, a day before it appeared inthe papers as an official document from under the hand of Gen. P. The correctness of his alle- gntionsin that report against (ten. Porter wil!, doubtless, be thoroughly sifted by Judge Ad- yoeate General Holt. ANOTHER NAVAL CAPTURE. On the sth instant the U.S. steamer Octarora captured, off Little Baha Bank, the rebel schooner Elias Reed, laden with turpentine, | rosin, and a few bales of sea island cotton. scene S71: is known that the command of Gen. | Morgan, heretofore designated the Cumberland Gap Army, has been withdrawn from Kanawha, and we may now reached Louisville on its way south.

The arm ef the Southwest, asa whole. now sutlic and to go wherever they please: It is predict that within a few weeks Price's y will be driven back, Vicksburg will be taken, and the Mississippi river will be open to New Orleans. #7 From the Mexican news, received at New York via Havana, we learn that appearances indicate that a general battle between the Mex- ican and French forces will soon occur. Gen. Ferry had arrived at Oriaaba, and a large number of the French expeditionary corps upwards of 15,(00—had been Ianded at Vera Cruz. The Mexicans were busily occupied in Strengthening the defences of Puebla and the Capital, and the road between the two citi which was to be disputed inch by inch. T! was more unity and enthusiasm displayed by the Mexicans than ever before. Several of the principal reactionary chiefs bad given in their adhesion to Juarez, and the determination ap- peared to be geueral to give the French as much trouble as pessible. Military rule hi. been declared in the States of Puebla, Haxcaln and V Cruz. Sickness continued to exist in the French fleet toa fearfulextent. Several deaths had ocenrred on the iron-clad frigate Normande from yellow fe 3 ~ tad among them were three officers. Northerly winds, however, had set in, and a dgerease in the number of deaths was expected. A furious gale bad ¢ nage to the shipping at Vera Cruz aad Sacrificios. A French iman- ot-war (the Chaptal) was driven ashore, will undoubtedly be lost. A large numb vessels had been lost, including the Ameri bark Sheridan, the American bark Jnstice Loug, and the American schooner Mary Fimina. lso several French, Spanish, English, M can, and Hanoverian vessels. Two Freac transports were wrecked, and another w saved at theexpen-re of her ma Many hiv were lost. All on board an glish brig perished, and of twelve persons on bord the Freneh bark Nautil only one was saved. An Exrepition Prerarine at Ricumonn. The Philadeiphia Press say We believe that Gen. Burnside has inte!li- gence of an embryo gigantic exp jon prepar- ing about Richmond to deal a heavy blow upon our weak columns on the coast. This ides re- ceives force from the fact that Gen. Poster, with @ strong and effective division, found it impo- litic to exeente fully his ptan for an incursion to Weldon, N.C. He suddenly heard of an immense force of the enemy concentrating to aneet him, and it may yet bear down upon his position at Newbern’ “Lee’s army has not gone into winter quarters about Richmond. but is resting and reorganizing, and he will act on the defensive only for a while. as no demonstration ix made upon his southe msin line of communication, our enemy will a to hold Richmond against a powerful assault. From present appearances it would seem that Gen. Halleck is rapidly arranging his grand columus fora general and powertul approtwch on Richmond from many points, invking it a point of concentrated and ove whelming attack. This is called “organizing decisive victory,” and will bea new move upen the board of modern warfare. _Position oF Tr York Times Fays REBEL ARM The New test intellig be ed to be reliable, that the main body of the r is rded in reaching a point between our army and Richmond.
