THE EVENING STAR. “WASHINGTON OITY: | WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 24, 1963. SF RBADING MATTRR OF BYBRY PAGS. BBE OCUTAIDE FOR INTBRESTING TBLE- SPIRi Migencer thinks the frequent chang» in the command of the Army of the Potomac a dangrreus sort ef experimontation, and that «it ia the misfortune of the country and of the Army of the Potomac that the only General who has commanded the Iatter long enough to win its comtidence has lost the favor of the Adminiatra- tien, or at least that branch which coutrols the comduct ef the war." The Chronscle criticises the course of the rad- fenls as represented by Mr. Conway, of Kansas, Q@nd the conservatives aa represented by Mr_ Ssulebury, of Delaware. Both attacked the President and Administration, but the CAron- a gives Mr. Conway the credit of being in- fivenced by & apirit of patriotiem and a love of liberty, while the Senator from Delaware acted, s the Chronicle, ‘like a slavo-drivor or a Five Points ball, + <ce+ — 87 The New York World dose itself no credit by endorring the malignantly abaurd story sent by “ Manbattan,” (the motorions Jo. Scoville,) the New York correspondent of the London Morning Herald to that paper, who says: « Itis @ fact that President Lincoln, when he Visited the battie-feld of Antietam, before the corpse had beeri buried, called upon an officer, who had been reported to him as a good song- singer, to ‘step out and sing mv a song,” and thea in an cpen plain, ip bearing of the dying and in sight of the sightives dead, the officer sung for the President of the United States ‘Jim @long Josey.” What asplendid but much abused ruler old Nero was. le fiddled while Rome ‘woes burning, but never called out one of his officers to sing ‘Jim along Josey." ‘The World cannot certainly be ignorant of the fact that the Prosident’s visit to the battle- fleld of Antietam took place three weeks after te battic, when there were certainly no dying nd dead lying on the field; and the story is otherwise so intrinsically absurd that none but BS very unscrupulous assailant would give it the slighte-t heed EF Our gunboats on the Mississipi had a sharp ergagement with the Kebels on tho Bayou Teche, on the th instant, in which they captored a number of the rebels; but, unfortunately, we lost the commander of the expedition, Commander Thos. McKean Kuch- Snan, who was shot through the head from the enemy's rifle pits. An error in the telegraphic dispatch, ss published yesterday, led to the supp sitien thatit was the rebel Commander Buchanaa who had been killed correspon New York Tribune snys: + Upon the arrival of Ges. Butler at New Orleans to resume com- mand of the Department of the Gulf, General Baaks will be ordered to Texans, at the head of Seulficient force, for the purpose of assisting the Union men of that State to restore it to the Union as 8 fron Vommonwealth Thus the original plan of the Banks expedition will be carried into execution.” S7 On Sunday Wheeiers cavalry made a @ash at a train of cars on the railroad between Nashvilleand Franklin, and succeeded in de- stroying two cars.

(General) McClellan has been pre- seated with an elegant furnished house in the Fifth Avenue, New York City. Among the subecribers to this McUlellan testimonial, we learn, are the names of Astor, Aspinwall, Morgan, and ether equally distinguished and Ppreminent. @F A correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, with whom the wish is doubtless father + to the thought, manufactures a « Washington Yumor™ to the effect that Gen. MeCiellan has tendered his resignation, all because he has froeived the critical censure of that renowned Vermont Jomrt, Gen Hitcheock. &F The English correspondent of the Chris. - téam Free Mason says that the Rey.
