Parte hiheod is occupied with news mat- TS jay. i Te itines treating upon “Thé Posi- tion’ thinks the Rebels will contest every inch of the road te Richmond, and says: «The pyblic here manifest no impatience wpon the subject. Confidence in the streng:h Quod bravery of the Army of the Potomac is universal, ard so also is the belief that it will be pushed ferward with all the speed which is consistent with prudence.’ Just 20; but the Republican has only lately got “to ere it.” ‘The Chronicle treate upon “Old-line Whigs” and « Deposed European Rulers.” +e — Exouisn Orska—tTux Ricurxcs TRorer— «The Enchantress” has been brought out at Ford's in good style—unusually good, when it is considered that its production involves a considerable outlay for scenic display, ballot and other accessories necessary to its rendition. The houses Monday night and last night (de- spite the bad weather) indicate, we are glad to easy, that Mr. Ford will not be leer by his enterprise. ‘With the capabilities and qualities of voice ofthe Kichings, father and daughter, the masical public here are familiar. Mr. Rich- ings holds his own as an actor, and Miss Richings’s delicious but not powerful voice etrikes us as never more exquisite in quality. She was applauded and encored again and Sgain and again last night; and, in fact, the in- judiciously-displayed enthusiasm of some of her sdmirere interered sadly to prevent the full enjoyment of some of her finest efforts. Among the gems of the performance wus her Fendition of Baife's besutiful aria in the second act, “Woman's Heart,” the legend of the “Young Nadir,” by the same compoeer, and her varia- tions to the celebrated “Pirate's Chorus.” Mr. James Dunn, the tenor, displayed good. taste and no inconsiderable ability. ‘The chorus of the Richings company is good, ‘&6 is also the ballet, and the scenic effects, prop- erties, Ac., noticeably so. The illusion as to time and place would perhaps be better main- tained by expunging the iettering, «G. ® T. Parker, Wsehington, D.C.,” from the head of the barrel that figures so conspicuously amongst the piuncer of the Sicilian pirates. Mr. E. H. Brick, always good, and Mr. W. H. Yailey, one of the very beet “ old men” that bas ever appeared here, both members of the regular stock company at Ford's were capital in th: ir reepective parts. ‘The Enchantress is repeated to-night. &7 The Chicago Journal understands that the following is the position of the army in Southwest Ti nnessce and North Mississippi. General Graut is with the center, between La- @rsoge ond the Cold Water; Gen. C. S. Hamil- ton is nexr Helly Springs; Gen. Sherman is at Davi-'s Bridge, southeast of Memphis: Gen. Hurltu: is at Memphis, in temporary command of the pest. The enemy has been concentrating considerable force at Jacksgn, Miss., under Pemt ren.

Congressional elections @re to be held im the Ist and 2d Congressional Gistricts of Louisiana on the 3d of December, for members of the next Congress. One hun- Gred and twenty-four men of the 8th Vermont, ceptured in September last, baye been paroled and returned to New Orleans. Six of the-num- ber captured were shot by the rebels becanse they had enlisted in New Orleans. The Bank ot New Orleans had been seized and closed by General Butier for s-nding specie to the rebels. Two cannon had been captured from the rebels near Baton Rouge by a cavalry recon- Doissance. BF The United states reveane steamer Her- ‘oukes, Capt. Dungan commanding, arrived at Baltimore yesterday morning, after several ‘weeks’ crui-e in the Chesapeake bay and the ‘Contiguous rivers. On the morning of the 19th Anstant the sloop « aman’s Bride” was cap. tured while attempting to reach the Virginia shore, near the mouth of the Potomac. The sloop was loaded with goods of all deseriptions mostly needed in Virginia. The captain, crew, @ad several persons who were on board as @PAseengers, were made prisoners. They were Jaaded at Fort McHenry. BZA letter trom Gen. Preston, of the Rebel “army in Tennessee, is very gloomy as to Rebel Prospects. He advises kis wife (in Nashville) look for peace in some happier land autil ‘this cruel war is over. He says that James B. (©lsy (the recreant son of Henry Ciay) bitterly @enounces Bragg for disapponting the expec- tations which he inspired. Clay has no com- Jmand. Preston says Clay is discontented, dis- S@ppointed and angry as to Kentucky. “She Shas become an open shame, I fear, to our enemies, @ scorn and derision even to Yankees, to whom she was betrayed.” pea S27 The Memphis Appeal states that a citizen ‘of Memphis recently crossed both lines, bear- “ing &@ proposition from Gen. Sherman to Lieut. General Pemberton, looking to an unobstructed bavigation of the Mississippi by United States . freighting and passenger boats, in considera- : Gon for which the families of Southern men in Meinphis were not to be disturbed by the Na- tional authorities. The Appeal bitterly opposes ‘the proposition. ———————$— —__________ Oomnzeticrt Exxction.—The town elec- tions in Connecticut, on Monday, indicate, as fer as heard from, an overwhelming defeat of the radicals. The Democrats have carried Hart- ford by TM clear majority, on the first select- men, and 4 majority on the collector. The entre Democratic ticket is elected for the first time in the fall for over twenty years. Nor- , Walk, too, bas gone Democratic by a large ma- jority. * No Passxs to Agria Crxegx.—Newspaper correspondents and others find themselves brought up with a round turn by the order to give no passes to Aquia Creek except to army Officers or thoee connected with the army inan official capacity. The irrepressible correspond- ents will certainly, however, get through by beok cr by crook in time to be on hand for the , Rext battle. @7 Throvgd hudson iaylor, the agent for ‘Washington of Scott & Co.'s reprints of foreign Magezines, we bave the Westminster Review fpr October, containing, amongst other articles Of interest, one headed “The Slave Power,” Boticeable for @ more triendly tone towards the ‘United States than English periodicals have -Senerally manifested during the war.

GENFRAL MeDUWELL's COURT OF INQUIRY. ‘The Court mét yesterday morning at eleven o'clock. A commenication was received from | the Adjutant General's office, containing tho | chargre mentioned‘in Gen. McDowell's letter to the President. Anorder was given to clear the room until the court concluded upon a course of action, and as to whether or not the trial should be made public asit progresses. There was along consultation pon the matter. Atip.m.the doors were thrown open, and Colonel Pelouze announced the result of the deliteration to te that Gen. Mc Dowell should recommend some plan for proceeding ia the case, and lay it before the Board, with a list of his witnesses; and that the Court would indi- vidually digest the several plans of investiga- tion and come to some concinsion. Gen. Cadwalader thought as the case was in emt-ryo, and as euch a one had never before been known of, it was necessary to adopt some arrangement toproceed. It was :tlao necessary to get alist of the witnesses to be exarained, and the Cgurt would be happy to hear any suggestions that General McDowell chose to Tanke. Gen, McDowell remarked that he had no othe? plan than that expressed in the letter. That it was for the Court to consider whom he acted subordinate to and with, and to investi- gate his conduct at that time. Gen. Cadwalader thouyht the best way to Teach the point was through Me Dowell fur- nishing the specifications and witnesses; then it would take along while to go through the papers at the Adjutant General's office. Gen. Martindale remarked that it wa< not im- perative ahat the Court followed the sugges. | tions of Gen. McDow: Il, but that they wished | him to give his idea of matters. Gen: Cadwalader said, then matters arise at once that ean better be learned from MeDowell. He krows if any commancer has censured him, or made any allegations in any report. If so, | when and where! Gep. McDowell replied, that he wonld pre- pere a listof witnesses and som suggestions | by to-morrow. General Martindale said they would not be beund by any plan, but they wanted McDow- | ls ideas of the case. The Court then adjonrned. Ss TO-DAY. The court met at 11 a.m. Recorder Lieut. Col. Pelouze read the pro- | ceedings of yesterday in detail. * Major General McDowell then, in accordance with the understanding had with the Court, read a paper containing his views of a pian to be followed in making the investigation, in which be recapitulated at length the history of | Lis several commands and services asa general officer, and proposed that his acts since being msc a Major General should be the subject of the investigation; as Congress had thoroughly investigated and reported on his career as a Brigadier General. 1t explained that while he could not prove a direct negative of the allega- tion that he had been treacherous, he asked leave to show by bis specific acts that he had at all times been loyal. It asked that his correspondence with the enemy’ commanders and with disloyal per- sons—Mrs. Robert Lee and Mrs. Fitzhugh— within the enemy's lines, be examined by the court. it further requested scrutiny into his con- duct with reference to the inhabitants of the” ccuntry in which his several commands had Operated. It next sugersted the propriety of investi- eanng whether be had been faithful to those communders placed over him, and whether he Led in any instance fai to go to the relief of any other commanders—Fremont, Banks and others. « And whether there was any truth whatever in the allegation of drunkenness that had been published against him. e ‘Lo sil these several specifications, which he desired the court to investigate, he appended lists of witnesses, wirose examination he re- quested. ° When he concinded the reading of this pa- Per, the court was cleared for deliberation upon its suggestions. The cqurt remained in consultation with clos'd doors until 24 p.m; and, on opening them, adjourned for the day, THE OLD CAPITOL PRISON. Brig. Gen. Martindale, a-ting Military Gov- ernor of the District of Columbia, is cnergeti- cally carrying out the work of discharging ali the } risoners of State confined in the Old Cap- * tol prison on frivolons or unsustained charges, which was initiated by General Wadsworth a werk or two since.

Scot:, and claims that he has already fornished ciearand dietinct responses to all the allegations of the latter. Mr. Euchanan says that he should now have uething more to add, had Gen, Scott, im his ra- joinder, confined himself to the topicsembraced * im hie original letter. Gen. Scott has extended the topica, and now, for the firat time, and in a sarcastic and unkindiy spirit, refers to the al- leged stealing Of public arms by Secretary Floyd, and their transportation to the South, in anueipation of the rebellion. The most conclusive answer to this allega- tion ix, Mr. Buchanan remarks, that notwith- standing the hoasting of Mr. Floyd, at Rich- mond, evidently w the view of conciliating his allies there, ci authority, no publf arms were ever stolen. This fact is established, he says. by the report of the Committee on Military Affairs ef the louse of Representatives, made | ton, of Uhio, their chairman, ont ruaty, 1-61.
