TIIE PRESIDENT GONE TO THE ARMY. Departure ©t"President Lincoln on a Visit to j General 6raul--Gcn. Grant's Trne Plan— : Olßcial Statement ot the National Debt. WASHINGTON, Jane 21 THE PRESIDENT'S DEPARTURE FOR GEN. GRANTS ' HEADQUARTERS. The United States dispatch boat, Captain Mitchell, left the Navy Yard to-day, with Presi dent Lincoln and the Assistant Secretary of the Narj- for City Point. It is understood that Mr. Lincoln and Assis tant Secretary Fox have gone to the front to con sult upon the tuture programme of the cam paign. For the first time since crossing the Ranidan the real plan of Genera I Grant for relucing Rich mond is growingmaaifest. It was never his in tention to enter-Richmond from the North, un less the unforscen chances and contingencies of battle should make it an easy conquest. Nature and art have exhausted themselves in making it impregnable from that direction, and General Grant was well advised of this at the outset. But the army was on the Rappahannock when he as sumed the general command, confronted by Gen. Lee. To have withdrawn from there, and trans ported his army by water from Washington to thi3 place, would have given Lee time and oppor tunity, which he rarely wasted, to have made counter demonstrations on Washington and the Upper Potomac. It was considered best to drive the rebel army before us to Richmond, if it could Eot be destroyed sooner; for its destruction in stead of the capture of one or many rebel capitals j is the grand objective purpose. To do this effec tually, by compelling it to retreat from Richmond on a line of their own selection, the destruction of the railroad through Gordonsville to the westward becomes an important consideration. For this purpose the army lay in the vicinity of Bethesda church and Coal Habor a full week louger than it would otherwise have done; but the railroad was finaly not only destroyed for miles, but completely annihilated, so far as the term is applicable to matter. Our mission on that flank was then accomplished. We are now here. While the capture ot'Petersburg is an accom plished fact the Danville Railroad is the only one that connects the rebel capital with the Southern Confederacy. The width of track on this road is said to differ from all other Southern railroads, and will prevent the withdrawal of rolling stoek. This road can be easily threatened, or even de stroyed, from Petersburg so that the rebel Gov ernment will feel that Richmond is held by a very slight tenure. The loss of Petersburg is the vir tual surrender of Richmond. A glance at the map will convince the most un believing of this. Our communications will be matchless; theirs hopeless. Let the timid, who scent disaster in every breeze and borrow trouble from all our movements, be assured that the glori ous campaign of Vicksburg will find a parallel here. There is something very grand and imposing in'the slow and steady advance of this army on Rich mond. It reminds one of the mountains closing in on the brothers in the fairy tale. To-day's session of the House was assigned for the consideration of the business of the Military Committee, aud was entirely occupied by it It went on quite smoothly until the bill repealing the commutation clause of the Enrollment act came up. It was evident from the first that a large ma jority was opposed to repealing it, and the addi tioual section, prohibiting the furnishing of sub statutes unless near relatives of the drafted man, did not aid it in the least. Mr. Schenck argued in favor of the bill, and argued its passage, as vitally necessary to carrying on the war ; but it was of no use. A raajority of two to one strik ing ont the first section, repealing the commutation, settled the matter, for the present at least. There was very little excitement manifested, but the House was very full and the vote large. If the war is to go on the repeal of the commutation clause in regard ed as a necessity, but it is evident that neither Con gress nor the people that are prepared for it yet. The question of the adjournment of Congress is constantly agitated. The Democrats are ready at any moment The administration menare anxious to secure the passage of all the important measures, and all are working industriously to get. them through this week. It is expected that they will all be through by Thursday of next week. In answer to a resolution of the House the Sec retary of the Treasury furnishes a statement of the public debt of the United States up to June 14, 1864, the totals of which are as follows: Debt bearing interest iu coin $81*7,941,601 Debt bearing interest in lawful money 379,700.802 Debt on which interest has ceased 370,170 Debt bearing no interest 501,383,104 Total $1,719,395,163 The anual interest in coin is $50,823,672 45 in lawful raonev. $20,876,057 70. Total interest. $716,199,730 15. The ten-forty bonds amount to $70,239,250 ; the three year thirty per cent, notes to $118,577,- 950; United States notes outstanding to $432,041, - 330; fractional currency outstanding to $21,031, - 948 85- The remainder of the debt bearing no interest consists mainly of unpaid requisitions.
