SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 1864 ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. fftecial Correspondence of The Press. 3 CULPEPER COURT HOTTBB, JEn. 12, 1864 Mrs. Matilda Riney and Miss ante Burrows re ceived a pass from Lieut. Egbert, aliened by Gen. Robinson, to visit Mr. Browning, residing on the Sperryville road, twelve miles from this town. Dr. Heard furnished them with an ambulance, and they left this town on Saturday morning, with the in tention of returning in the evening. When within about half a mile of Mr. Browning's, they were met by Private William Scott, Of the 4th Virginia Cavalry. He demanded their pats, and refused to return it. They begged him to allow them to go to Mr. Browning's, and return with the ambulance, ac their having the ambulance was a civility shown them by the Union pincers ; but he refused in very rough language, and told them they would have to go to Richmond, or walk home. They then re quested him to carry them to the nearest headquar. tere of any troops. He started, and carried them as far as Slate Mine, where they remained all night, with the intention of starting again in the morning for Madison. In the morn ing Scott• gent word to theta, before they were up, ;that the horse" had got loose, and gone backlto camp; he then left, with the driver of the ambulance. The opinion of the ladles ie, that Scott had 4unnggled the horses away in the night. Through thliiindness of the neighbors, the ladle, rode to within two miles of our pickets, and walked from that point to Culpeper Court Rouse, a distance of ten mile", arriving here this morning. Scott knew who they were. They think that the ambu lance will be sent back, as their friends assure them that they will properly present the matter to the rebel officers. As soon as possible, a squadron of one hundred and fifty picked men were despatched in pursuit Of the captured driver and ambulance. After travelling about sixty miles, they returned with Lieut. Wyginton and six men, belonging to the 6th Virginia Cavalry. One man was drawn out from between two beds, while two ladies pretended to be snatching a brief repose above him. • Reconnoissances toward Sperryville have disco vered large quantities of grain and other stores, which will no doubt be ours ere this is published. The nearest rebels are.at Madison Court House, and do not number over fifty men. The men are grow ing insubordinate, and threaten to help themselves from the commies/wit; already they have taken all the stores from the sutlers. Every man and boy, from sixteen to sixty, is being gathered into Lee's army. Our scouts tell me that large numbers of men are concealed in the mountains, to avoid the conscripting officer. The let Division of the Sd Corps shifted their guar ters to a large belt of woods, a mile or two in ad vance of their old position. It provokes the men to have new quarters to build, after they have just got snugly settled. The snow is slowly wearing away, and the weather is gradually growing warmer. A MO West got married to , day to a amen 'Mountain boy; all the ladies are in convulsions about it. They disclaim all knowledge of her; say she is fram North Carolina, and is a " Tar Heel." Re-Enlistments. Professor Saunders gives the following views of the best mode of obtaining recruits. They have already been practically tested in the Twenty-fourth ward, and there oan be no question of their effi ciency : CFrom yesterday's Bulletin.] Peculiar circumstances have made the under signed acquainted with important facto respecting enlistments, and (institute his apology for these brief statements. The present unanimity of our citizens, of all political parties, for the prosecution of this war against rebellion, is both amazing and delightful. The desire to fill the quota of the city by voluntary enlistments, is SO great, that extremely poor men, to escape the draft, will very generally subscribe five dollars, and men of means give pro portionally to ripply the ward bounties. So willing are men to enlist, that the writer confidently be lieve. that a ward bounty of fifty dollars, with re sponsible names 'lust if will be certainly and immediately paid, in addition to all the other bounties, will soon till the quotaof every ward. The following arrangements are the beat he could devise to raise the money and secure the recruits in any ward disposed to make the experiment : Let a war meeting of the citizens of the ward be called ; let a few patriotic and eloquent speakers,eastly obtained, make addressee ; let resolutions De passed ; let a finance committee of six, eight, or ten be ap pointed in each precinct, to obtain subscriptions by personal visitation made withthe greatest despatch; let every member of the finance committee bear in mind that success will depend, under God, on the amount collected and that a small additional aura collected will immediately lend forward to the Ileidfanotber volunteer ; let an executive committee Of eight or ten of the most energetic and interested gentlemen of'.;:the whole Ward be appointed, Who _Oen be erepetworwa' ineroaste tlsek•-member electing the beat workers to be found in the ward, as they shall be developed ; let this committee offer the bounty (fifty dollars being sufficient), to a re cruit, and a premium (five dollar. will answer), for the person who brings him ; let this committee find some one who will consent to act se a chairman, and who will be willing, for the short period noes. eery, to give his whole time to the cause; let hire be supplied by the treasurer with the means to pay promptly, at a- designated place and hour, all re cruits who come with duly authenticated papers, which, receipted by the recruits, he will give back as vouchers to the treasurer. Let the chairman learn from the district provost marshal or others whatever it may be necessary for him to know pertaining to the enlistments. Let advertisements be found in all the papera, stating the names of the executive committee, to inspire confi dence, and the place and hour in which the chairman will certainly be found every day to pay the re mutts. The writer feels assured that if this plan is substantially carried out in the various wards, the city, with the blessing of God, cannot fail to obtain all the men necessary by voluntary enlistments, and thus supercede the necessity of a resort to the draft. Good judges, among whom is Marshal Lane, of the Fourth district, think that the muster-rolls can yet be-ao altered that all our soldiers re.enlisted in the field may be accredited to the quotas of their re. speotive wards. If this cannot be done, however, each ward will doubtlesa regard it both a pleasure and a duty to extend its bounties to its own re en listed patriotic heroes, including the officers to whom, without exciting jealousy, the same aunt could be given by the Executive Committee in the grateful form of some suitable memento.

GEN. MoOLELLAN'S REPORT. LETTER TO TILE SECRETARY OF WAR. Further Correspondenee with the Pre sident. BITTER LETTER TO NR. 6TAUTON On the night of the 28th I sent the following to the Secretary of War : HEADQUARTERS ARNE OF TUE POTOMAC, SAVAGE STATION, June 28; 1862, 12.20 A. at. I now know the full history of the day. On this side of the river, the right bank, we repulsed several strong attacks. On' the left bank our men did all that men could do, all that soldiers could accomplish, but they were overwhelmed by vastly superior numbers, even after I brought my lard re. serves into action. The logs on both sides is terri ble. I believe it will prove to be most desperate battle of the war. The sad remnautc.of my men behave as men ; those battalions who fought most bravely, and suffbred most, are still in the best order. The regulars were superb, and I count upon what are left to turn another battle, in company with their gallant comrades of the volunteers. Had I (20,000) twenty Thousand, or even (10,000) ten thou sand fresh troop! to use to-morrow, I could take Richmond ; but I have not a man in reserve, and shall be glad to cover my retreat and save the ma terial and personnel of the army. If we have lost the day, we have yet preserved our honor, and no one need blush for the Army of the Potomac. I have lost this battle because mylorce was' too email. I again repeat that I am not responsible for this, and I say it with the earnestness of a general who feels in his heart the loss ofr.eVere brave man Who has been needlessly. sacrificed' to-day. I still hope to retrieve our fortunes. brat° 'de thrs the Govern ment must view the matter irk Ate same earnest light that I do. You must lend ass Very large reinforce ments, and send them at once.- • I shall draw back to this sidebflahorniny, and think I can withdraw all out' material Please understand that in this battle we haVe lost nothing but men, and those the best we have. In addition to what I have already said, I only wish to say to the President that I think he is wrong in regarding me as ungenerous when I said that my force was too weak ; I merely intimated a truth which to-day has been too plainly proven. If, at this instant, I could dispose of (10,000) ten thou sand fresh men, I could gain the victory to-morrow. I know that a few thousand more men would have changed the battle from a defeat to a victory. As it is, the Government must not, and cannot, hold me responsible for the result. I feel too earnestly tonight—l have seen too many dead and wounded comrades, to feel otherwise than that the Government has not sustained the army. If you do not do so now, the game is lost. If I save this army now, I tell you plainly that I owe no thanks to you, or to any Other person in Washington. You have done your best to sacrifice this army. G. B. IffeOLELLAbf. To Hon. E. M. STANTON. TEE ARMY AT HARBISON'S LAEDING On the let of July I received the following from the President : waercinemow, July 1, ism-3.30 P.M. Major General Geo. B.

In a despatch from the President to me, on the 2d of July, he says : If you think you are not strong enough to take Richmond, just now, I do not wish you to. Try just now to save the army material and personnel, and I will strengthen it for the offensive again, as fast as I can. The Governors of eighteen (18) States offer me a new levy of three hundred thousand, which I accept." On the third of July the following kind despatch was received from the President : EMCEE Wasumetrow, July ; 1862-3 P. M. Major General G. B. McClellan: Yours of 5.30 yesterday is just reeelVed.

LINOOLDT. •••• • • ::: • •::, •:t. On the 4th I Bent the following to thePrealdtnt HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAO, If arrisonPB Bar, Jame' River, July 4,1862. To the President: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch of the 2d inst. I shall make a stand at this place, and endeavor to give my men the repose they so much require. Alter sending my communication on Tuesday, the enemy attacked the left of our lines, aid a, fierce battle ensued, lasting until night. Tkey were re pulsed with great slaughter. lied their attack succeeded, the consequences would have been disastrous in the extreme. This closed the hard fighting which had continued from the afternoon of the 26th ult., in a daily series of en gagements wholly unparalleled on this continent for determination and slaughter on both sides. . The mutual loss in killed and wounded is enor mous—that of the enemy certainly greatest. Oa Tuesday morning, the Ist, our army commenced its movement from Huxall's to this point ; our line of defence there being too extended to be maintained by our weakened forces. Onr train was immense, and about 4P. hi. on the 2d a heavy storm of rain began, which continued during the entire day, and Until the forenoon of yesterday. The road. became horrible. Troops, artillery, and Wagons moved on steadily, and our whole army, men and waterier; war finally broughtsagelY uiio camp. The last of the wagons reached here at noon yesterday. The exhaustion was very great, but the army preserved its morale and would have repelled any attack which the enemy was in condition to make. We now occupy a line of heights ' about two miles from the James, a plain extending from there to the river. Our front is about three miles long. These heights command our whole position, and must be maintained. The gum boats can render valuable support upon both flanks. If the enemy attack us in front, we must hold our ground as we best may, and at whatever coat. . . Our position can be carried only by overwhelm ing numbers. The spirit of the army is excellent ; stragglers are finding their regiments, and the Pol. dime exhibit the best results of discipline. Our pod non is by no means impregnable, especially as a morass extends on this aide of the high ground from our centre to the James on our right. The enemy may attack in vast numbers, and if so, our front will be the scene of a desperate battle, which, if lost, will be decisive. Our army is fearfully weakened by killed, wounded and prisoners. I can not now approximate to any statement of our losses, but we were not beaten in any conhiet. The enemy were unable, by any efforts, to drive as from the field. Never did such a change of base, involving a retrograde movement, and under in cessant attacks from a most determined and vastly more numerous foe partake so little of disorder. We have lost no g uns,i except twentyfive, on the held of battle, twenty.one of which were lost by the giving way of McCall's division under the onset of superior numbers. Our communications by the James river are not secure. There are points where the enemy can establish themselves with cannon or musketry, and command the river, and where it is not certain that our gunboats can d rive them out. In case of this, or in case our front is broken, I will still make every effort to preserve at least the personnel of the army, and the events of the last few days leave no ques tion that the troops will do all that their country can ask. Send such reinforcements as you can; I will do what I can. We are shipping our wounded and sick, and landing auppliee. The Navy Department should co.opetate with us to the extent of its resources. Captain Rogers is doing all in hit power in the kindest and most efficient manner. When all the circumstances are knoWn, it will be acknowledged by all competent judges that the movement just completed was unparalleled in the Anwar of war. Under the most difficult circum stances, we have preserved our trains, our guns, our material, and, above all, our honor. G. B. McCLELLAN, Maj. Gen. LETTERS PROM THE PARSIDNNT.

WAS DHPAP.THONT, WASHINGTON', D. C., July 4, 1862. I understand your position, as stated in your let ter, and by General Marcy. To reinforce you 50 as to enable you to resume the offensive within a month, or even six weeks, is impossible. In addition to that arrived and now arriving from the Potomac, (about 100,000, I auppose), and about 10,000 I hope you will receive from Burnside very soon, and about 5,000 from 'Hunter a little later, I do not see how I can send you another man within a month. Under these circumstance., the defensive for the present must be your only care. Save the army first where you are, if you can, and secondly by removal, if you must, You , on the-ground, must be the judge as to which you will attempt, and of the means for ellen ing it. I but give it as my opinion that, with the aid of the gunboat., and the reinforcements men tioned above, you can hold your present position, provided, and so long as you can keep the Janice river open below you. If you are not tolerably con fident you can keep the Tames Ater open, you had better remove as soon as possible. Ido not retteem ber that you have expressed any apprehension as to the danger of having your communications cut on river below you; yet I do not suppose ft can have escaped your attention. A.

Goverior Brough's Inaugura3f. The new Governor of Ohio concludes his =awe with the following sensible thoughts : There are but two ways in which the restoraion of peace and the Union is to be aocomplished : Et*, the unconditional surrender of the leaders and the abandonment of the rebellion ; or, second, the ooD tinned progress and conquests of our arms, until the Military power of the Confederacy is broken and the heart of the rebellion *rushed. All intermediate plans or schemes are mere palliative", that, like our comprotnisee of the past fifteen years, will only serve to procrastinate existing evils, restore peace. that will require constant watchfulness and concessions, and prosperity that will be dependent upon almost annual sacrifices to avoid future demands and incur , 'yellows. In view of the permanence of our Govern ment and the integrity of our. Union, there isno such thing in compromise with rebels in arms against belie Turn from it all we may, the great truth is apparent to every reasoning mind, that submission or sulljugation, for the leaders of this rebellion, are the only effective means of restoring peace and gbod go" einment again. The first of these is not likely to occur in the pre sent postu, e of affairs, nor as long as hope, however blind or unreasonable, will 'serve to shield from des pair the fortunes of the del/ and military heads of the rebellion. The second, therefore; constitutes our only certain ratans of success. In its , progrese to this end, our gallant army has a two-fold mission to fulfil. The first is to press back step by step, it ne cessary, the arbitrary power at the Confederacy from the usurped soil of the seceding States ; and eventu ally to subdue that power, and bring it to terms of peace. The second to eevelop the principle of loyal. ty in the relieved people, and protect them in its ex wattle and enjoyment, while they restore the civil functions of their State Governments, and unite them again with their sister States under the pro visions of the Nitional Constituiton. • It in objected, perhaps, that the loyal people of the South are too few in numbers to assume or, be trusted with the powers of the State Government. A. fair , test will demonstrate this assumption to be Anwar ranted. In addition to the larde body who, in almost every Southern State, opposed the ordinances of cc. cession, many thousands have been converted by . the pr ogress, and many thousands more will be released and flock to the standard upon the suppression of the rebellion, and the subjugation of its military power. The lessons of privation, suf fering, and misery entailed upon the people of the South by the wicked leaders in this war will suffice, at least, for the present generation•; , and , with wholesome and beneficent government again re stored a loyal or repentant people will live is. his tory as a warning to future generations not slightly to put in peril of destruction such a form of govern ment, at the command of wicked and unprincipled leaders, only for the eettibliihmeht of an oligarchy in its stead with nothing but civil war as its means, and despotism as its result. But the loyal people or the Southern States, be they few or many, can alone be entrusted with this great work of recognition. While we desire peace, therefore, we must, as a necessary means, prosecute the contest. To this end our armies must be reinforced and increased, and the brave men who accept this duty must be cared for and protected. The past has bad its gloom, but the future is full of hope. The call of duty in the field and the council is earnest and cheerful, and your response and mine must not be laggard and un certain. To this end you are chosen; and mine shall, at all tunes, be a co-operation cordial and ef fe etive. MAJOR GENERAL GRANT NOT U. S.

The member of Congress who nomi nated him somehow got his name mixed up with that of his brother, and he was appointed as Ulysses Sidney, and, that name once on the records at the military academy, could not be] changed. He was baptized into the military school as U. S. Grant, avd he has ever since borne that name. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIALS TEE MONEY MARKET. JANUARY lb. 1564 Operations In gold continue to be very large and active and the price to-day still further advanced, reaching at one time 15S. Towards the close the market weakened, - and it was freely offered at 155V5155. The large ship ments being made to Europe are having this effect, and there being no counterbalancing facts to oppose this one, the price naturally advances. Senator Lane's bill. making it a penal offence to buy or sell gold at a pre mium, seems to have very little effect, and is generally laughed at. Iffinancier Lane would take a walk through Wall or Third street, he would see the niter absurdity of meddling with the privileges of the gold cougrega tions. The money market is well supplied at 68^7 for regular dealers. 7888 for outsiders, the class of securities having 'weight in determining the rate. Government securities are steady. The stock market was active and very ranch excited with a still farther tendency for higher prises. Cate wisea still is the prominent feature with operators; the preferred being largely taken at 40; the common at 18. an advance of 2. This heavy advance is not due to the mere puffing of the speculation, but it is founded on the solid advancement in the value of the shares: The Ca tawisea Company has long been laboring under the stig ma of being called "wildcat," which. controlled the opinions - of those desiring investment. It was repre sented as being worthless by men who ought to have known and who did know better. Bat at last the veil is removed from the eyes of many, and the stock is taking its proper place on the list. The exertions made by the officiate who now control the affairs of the road have be: n.sminantly anaceSsfnl, and the thanks ef the stock holders are due to those gentlemen for the tact, energy, and perseverance they have displayed.
