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.

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.

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. McClellan:
It le impoceible to reinforce you for your present
emergency. IT we had a million of men we could
not get them to you in time. We have not the men
to tend. If you are not strong enough to face the
enemy, you must find a place of security, wait, rest,
and repair. Maintain your ground if you min, but
wave the army at all events, even if you fall Wok to
Fortress Monroe. We still have etrength enough in
the country, and will bring it out.
A. LINCOLN.
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

Major General G. B. McClellan:

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

LETTERS PROM THE PARSIDNNT.
WASHINGTON, July 6,1862-7 A. M.
Major General G. B. McClellan, Commanding Army Po-
A thousand thanks for the relief your two de
spatches, of 12 and IP. M. yesterday, gave me. Be
assured the heroism and skill of yourself and officers
and men is, and forever will be, appreciated.
U you can hold your present position, we shall
hive the enemy yet. A. LINCOLN*.
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. LINCOLN.
P. S.—lf at any time you feel able to take the
offensive, you are not restrained from doing so.

TRLEOP.AM FROM M'CLBLLAN.
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THB POTOMAC,
Beitkimv, July 7, 1862, 8.30 A. M.
As the boat ls•starting I have only time to ac
knowledge the receipt of telegram by Gen. Marcy.
The enemy have not attacked. My position is very \
strong and daily becoming more so. If not attacked
today, I shall laugh at them.
I have been anxious about my communications.
I had a long consultation about it with Flag.offioer
Goldsborovgh last night. He is confident he can
keep the river open.
Be should have all gunboats possible. Will see
him again this morning. My men in splendid spirits,
and anxious to try it again.
Alarm yourself as little as possible about me, and
don't lose confidence in this army.

POLITICS.
While general•in•chief and director of the opera
tion of all our armies in the held, I had become
deeply impressed with the importance of adopting
and carrying out certain views regarding the con
duct of the war, which, in my judgment, were einem
tial to its objects and its success.
During an active campaign of three months in the
enemy's country these were so fully confirmed that
I conceived it a duty, in the critical position we
then occupied, not to withhold a candid expression
of the more important of these views from the corm
mandemin• chief, whom the Constitution places at
the head of the armies and navies, as well as the
Government of the nation.

Dr. Mackenzie bad been a leading physdalan of Bal

THREE CITNTS'.
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. GRANT.—III
a resent trip over the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad,
in company with Major General W. T. Sherman,
that gentleman, who Is a warm admirer of General
Grant, related a circumstance as to how he obtained
the initials 1, 11. which we do not recollect
having seen in print. He stated that General
Grant's baptismal name was Hiram Ulysses, and he
bore that name till he was appointed a cadet at
West Point. 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.

favor by the Public, and at once advanced to 5;4 per
