rer rs SSS WASHINGTON CITY: MONDAY........s... DECEMBER 1, 1968. @7 BEADING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. BBB OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. The ‘Intelligencer, noticing the reevat moves | by certain Enropean Governments toward ssi@iation, thinks ou sfpgh interference would be inoperative and void: and any pacification must “depend upon the temper and condition of the reepective belligerents. word it must come from within, and Rever be imposed Th caren e aeends the Government for the arrest cf a! sympathizers with secession in the North; and thinks their recent releasean Act of clem: and magnanimity,and as an evidence “that the Gevernment finds itself ficiently strong to es the puny efforts those Northern traitors.” - ‘zac pees advocates the “ Florida Emi- gration” scheme, Cx OUR MILITARY BUDGET. se. dens eit WHAT'S IN THE WIND? ‘The Washington Republican argues elabo- rately to-day against any further advance of the great army under Gen. Burnside, on the ground of probable danger to Washington from an advance of the army of the rebels if ours should press further onward towards Rich- mond! Itis sincerely to be hoped that,its ar- ticle is in ne manner officially inspired. How groundless its-fears renily are, may be compre- hended from the fact that Gen. Heintzleman certainly commands a force concentrated STOUNG Inie city suMclent to avfend tt against an army of more than a hundred thotsand men. Since our aymy first moved upon Manassas, a yeor and a half ago, there never bas beena time when we were so strong around Washir.gton, as now—strong enough, as we are, easily to spare Gen. Burnside's fifty thousand troops without by any possibility endangering the safety of this capital. The Repudlican, in this article, speaks yol- umes against the policy of those who hounded Gen. McClellan until they succeeded in depri- ving the countryof his services in the fleld. Within three days after his last removal—had he then been let alone—as all the world now know, he would have fought a decisive battle witg his large army against Lee’s 50,000 some- where bet ween Culpeper Court-Houseand Gor- donsville; probably at Cedar Mountain, orseyen miles back of that memorabie field, on the im- mediate banks of the Rapidan. The balance of the rebel army—said to be 40,000 strong—was at that time full six or seven day's march distant; im the Valley. Six hours before receiving the order depriving him of his command he an- nounced to more than one officer surrounding him—as will not long hence be proved—that he feit evre that Lee would be compelled to give him battle and svbmit to an entire defeat then and there; the thing in issue being Richmond’s railroad communication with the Valley, Ten- nerree and the west generally—Gordonsville. Now, thecauntry is gravely informed by those who clamored for his removal because of his alleged tardiness, that with our army under Burnside and the defences of the metropolis greatiy strengthened subsequently, we may not dare risk a battle with the rebels! In truth, is not all this conclusive proof that _ political ends rather than the restoration of the Unicn under the Constitution of our fathers may po-:sibly be the botiom of the war Policy of McUlellan-hating radicalism ? ————— | THE McDOWELL COURT OF INQUIRY | met again this forenoon, at 11 o'clock, when Gen. McDowell offered as testimony with ref- | erence to the manner in which he dealt with the inbabitants of the country occupied by his command his writen instructions to General | Shields, at Luray, to take such supplies from j the inhabitants as the force under him needed, | and to give the receipts for property so taken | required by the army regulations; and further instructing him, in gase he could not thus pro- cure sufficient forage, to subsist his horses by grazing. ! After this letter was read, Col. Shiver, Chiet of Gen. McDowell's Staff, was again examined, sod testified that supplies were largely taken from the people of the country by Gen. McDow- ¢li’s order, tor the use of the army. ng ae BRIGADIER GENERAL MEIGS. On Saturday afternoon and throughout yes- terday this city was full of a rumor that on the | demand of General Burnside, dissatisfied on account of the utter failure ‘of the Quarter- master’s Department to manage its share of his campaign in a business-like manner, General Meigs had been removed from his position of Quartermaster General. While it is by no means unlikely that some dissatisfaction on General Burnside’s pqrt exists, we have so far been unable to verify the fact that it has brought about the action on the President's part we refer to above, or is likely so to do. Se as THE CASE OF GEN. PORTER. The court-martial in the case of Gen. Porter met this morning—Gen. King still absent. Af- wer the cout met Gen. Porter was furnished with a copy of the charges against him. He asked &n adjournment to Thursday morning, . Whereupon the court was cleared for deliber- | ation. After half an hour the doors were opened, and an adjournment lill to-morrow at 11 8. m. announced. APPOINTED. Capt. J. W. Fisher, late of Gen. McClellan's staff, has ben appointed an Assistant (Quarter- master on Gen. Ingall's staff. PENNSYLVANIA CAVALREYMEN GousLeD UP.

Nov. 30-7 p. m.—Brig.. General Stahl has just returned. He attacked | the enemy at Snicker’s Ferry and followed them with 300 cayairy into their camps on the | other side of the river and near Berryville. Our men charged splendidly whenever thoy | met the enemy. White's cavalry was driven in all directions, nearly all their officers captured, and their colors taken. White himself fled, and hid himself at a house in Berryville. The 3d, 7th and 12th Vir- @inia cavalry were alse attacked and routed. Forty of their men, with horses, were taken prisoners, and fifty kiNed and wounded, and two colors taken. | ‘ ‘One wagon load of pistols and carbines was picked up on the road, thrown away by the fiyingenemy. Eighty cattle and eighty horses were.also bronght in. Our loss in killed and wounded is about fif- teen. Gon. Stahl] reports that his officers and men behaved excellently, and used only their swerds—no fire-arms. He also reports that there is a brigade under Gen. Joncs at Winchester, but that Jackson's main force was at New Market last Wednes- day, as reported previously. F. Siekt, M. G.

The Rebels have taken poser sion of the railroad bet ween Corinth and Jackson, and are reported now occupying Henderson and Pinson, tearing up rails and carting them away. Their force is not known; but it is thoughtto be a prelude for an attick upon Corinth. No fears are entertained for its safety. This is supposed to be a portion of Price’s cavalry, lately making a reconnoissance toward Salem. The enemy is also reported as tearing up the railroad track at Collerville, this side of Moscow. An intelligent contra. band reports that Price has again fallen back south of Tallahatchie, and is moving toward Vicksburg. If this be corroborated, look out for an extensive demonstration. | 23S ea &7 The Nashville Union of Monday has these ims: Twenty-tive regular “Butternuts” be- longing to Forrest's command, some cavalry men, some infantry, and some belonging to Freeman's Battery, were brought in yester- duy, having been captured by Gen. Oritten- den’scommand. Fifty «Butternuts” were also broughtin who were c2ptured by Gen. Davis’ command. They are hard looking nuts, and appear badly tfrostbitten. Uncle Sam will soon have quite a stock of Butternuts on hand. While the prisoners were standing in the Capitol vare amember of the First Middle Tennessee Volunteers, U.S. A., recognized his brother among them. On last Thursday a Rebel supply train was attacked by our cavalry near Clarksville, and the wagons all taken and thirty prisoners captured. 87 A correspondent of the Cincinnati Com- mercial writing-from Louisville, says that re- cruits by hundreds daily come in from East Tennessee, and without ceremony enter the service. The brigade of Tennesseeans, before it reaches Knoxville, will number nearly ten thousand strong, in which will be near two thousand cavalry, well armed and equipped. They will be sufficiently strong to raise the Star Spangled Banner in eyery county in East 4 Tennessee, and maintain their position against | any force the Rebels can send against them. | 7 It is announced that four of the seven Territories will make application foradm’‘ssion | into the Union ag States at the next session of | Congress.

He reports that no rebel troops were found thie side of the Rappahannock, but he saw their pickets a]! the way on the other side of the river, He scoured the country all around within fifty miles of Aquia on this side the river. He represents that a very large con. traband trade is carried on across the Potomac from Maryland into Virginia, and that our blockade of the Potomac is a perfect sham. He succeeded in capturing ten men and quite a | large amount of whisky, tea, sugar, shoes, calico and other contraband goods; but paroled the prisoners, not wishing to weaken his forces | by aetafling @ Tequisite number of men to | guard them. He says that hundreds of thou- sands of dollars worth of these goods, so essen- | tinl to the rebels, are being smuggled across the | river every month. | From Wxatern MARYLAND—Old Burk, the | Retel Guerilla, Killed, tract from a letter | dated Sharpsburg, Noy. 27: | My Dear Son :—Thinking that you might feel anxious to hear from home, I thonght I would drop yous line.
