General Fremont’s, reply is as follows, Including
important paragraphs not'given In the previous
telegraplilo abstract:
~ G-EXt.Ti'inusN: In . answer to tJio letter which I
have had the honor to-receive from you, on the part
of the representatives of tlio people assembled at
Cleveland, on * the 31st of May, 1 dosiro to express
■my thanks for the confidence) which led them to
offer tue the honorable and difficult.posltion of their
candidate in the approaching Presidential contest.
Very honorable, because In offering it to mo you
act in the name of a gTeat number of citizens who
seek above all things the good of their country, and
.who have no sort or selfish interest in viow. Very
difficult, because -in''accepting-the candidacy you
propose to me. I am oxposed to the reproach of
creating a schism In the party with which I have
been identified. • •
Had Mr. Idncolirremained faithful to the princi
ples luf was electedftordefend, no schism could have
been created and.4so contest could have been possi
ble. Thisis nott, an ordinary election. It is a con
test for the rightieven to have candidates, and not
merely, as usual, Tor the choice among them. Now,
for the *7o, the question of constitu
tional liberty has-been .brought directly before the
people for their serious consideration and vote. The
ordinary rights*secured under the Constitution and
the laws of the'copntry have been ; vlolatod, and ex
traordinarypowers beon usurped jby the Exe
cutive. It is: directly before the people now to say
whethcrbr principles established by the Re
volution arc worth maintaining.
If, as we have" been taught to bbliovc, those
guarantees.for libertywhich made the distinctive'
value and glory of our country, are in truth inviola
bly sacred, then here must be a protest against the
arbitrary violation wHch had not even the excuse
of necessity. The schism is made by those who force
the choice between a shameful silence or a protest
against wrong. In such considerations originated
the Cleveland Convention. It was among its objects
to arouse the of the people to such facts,
and to bring them to realize that while we arc sa
turating Southern- soil with’ the best blood of the
country in the name of liberty, we havo really parted
with it at homo.
To-day we have in the country the abuses of a
military dictation, witboutljts unity of action and
vigor oi execution. An&dministration marked at
home by disregard of constitutional rights, bv its
viobations of personal liberty and the liberty ot the
press; and, as a crowning shame, by its abandon
ment of the right of asylum, a right especially dear
to all-free nations abroad- Its course has been
characterized by a feebleness and want of .principle
which has misled European Powers, and driven
them to a belief that only commercial interests and
personal aims are concerned,, and that no great;
principles ore involved in the issue. The admirable
conduct of the people, their readiness to make every
sacrifice demanded.of them, their forbearance and
silence under the suspension of everything that
could be suspended, their many acts of heroism and
sacrifices were all; rendered; fruitless by the incapa
city, or to speak more cxactlyyby the personal ends
for which the war was managed. This incapacity
and. selfishness naturally-produced such results as
led tho Europoan Powers, ana logically enough, to
the conviction that the North, with its greatly supe
rior population, its immense resources and Its cre
dit will never be able to recover the South.
Sympathies which should bavo been with us from
the outset of the war were against us, and
in this way the Adminietrafton has ' done tho coun
try a'double wrong, abroad. ?It created hostility, or.
at best indifference among-those who would have
been its friends, if of the poople
could have been better known, while, at the same
time, it neglected no occasion for making the most
humiliating concessions. *
Against disastrous condition of affairs the =
Cleveland Convention was a protect. -
The principles which form ..the basis of its plat
form have my unqualified‘andbordial approbation ;
but T cannot so heartily concur in all the measures
which you propose. Ido not believe that confisca
tion extended to the property, of all rebels is practi
cable, and, ifit were so. I dohot think it a measure
of sound policy. It is, in fbs,a,ques«on belonging
to the people themselves to decide, and is a proper
occasion lor the exercise of .their original anu sove-%
reign authority. As a war'measure, in the bogin
ning of a revolt which mightfbe quelled by prompt
severity; I understand the policy of confiscation, but
not as a final measure after the
suppression of an insurrection.
In. the adjustments which are to follow peace no
considerations of consistently be ad
mitted. -■
The object of the war ft to mako permanently se
cure the peace and happiness of the whole country,
and there was but a single element in the way
of its attainment. This element of slavery may
be considered prnctieally4testroyed In the country,
hud it needs only your proposed ; amendment of the
Constitution to make its extinction complete. , :
With this extinction of slavery the party divisions
orcated by it have also disappeared. And if ia the
history of the: there been a time
when the American people, without regard to one
or another of the political divisions, were called upon
to give solemnly their yojee in a matter wiiich in
volved the safety of the United States, it'is assured
ly the presenttime. ■' . - "
If the Convention at Baltimore wiU nominate any
man whose past life justifies a -.well grounded confi
dence In his fidelity to our cardinal principles, there
is no reason why there should be anydivision among
the really patriotic men-Of the ebuntry. To any such

of men, and needlessly putihs country on the road
to bankruptcy, there wal remain no alternative but
to organize against, him every element of conscien

good manners for snot a ono to express a thought

1. The re-election of President Lincoln would give

in the conduct of the: war. He 'nfey.’havo mado

To the Editor oj The Press:
Sir: The constant communication In wklcli I
stand with some of the leading men of East' Ten
nessee, and especially with the Xtov. T. \V, Humes,
President of the Heliof Association at Knoxville;
Induces mo to draw the attention of your readers to
certain facts, which just at this time deserve to be
made prominent. It ought to he generally under
stood, that in consequence of the withdrawal of a
portion of the troops from the vicinity of Knox
ville, that portion or East Tennessee which lies east
of Hull's Gap is still in the hands of the enemy.
The time may shortly come when our troops shall
occupy it permanently, but the large number or fa
milies which are now Jiving in that region will not
bo able to make any crops this year, and are suro to
bo J'ound in a suffering condition whonever they
shall come within our lines. :It is very desirable on
this account that the Interest in behalf of the suf
ferers of East Tennessee should bo kept alive, and
that tbo efforts of the Hon. N. G. Taylor, the ac
credited agent of the Policf .Association,.of East
Tennessee, should meet with a favorable reception.
The ladies who some time ago loft this city in order
to open in Knoxville a home and hospital for the
sick and suffering refugees, have arrived in that
city, and in a few days we may expect to hear from
them. The railroad to Knoxville through Ken
tucky, which is so greatly called for, Is waiting the
action of the Senate. But if even the construction
of this railroad, which would be of incalculable
benefit to the people of East Tennessee, should bo
speedily deci(fed upon, it would yet take months be
fore it could be completed. In the meantime the
active interest of those who are able to relievo suf
fering is still called for. My duties in the hospital
claim ail my time, else I would be glad to take n
more active part In advancing the cause of a peo
ple who are so woll-dcscrving of tho regard of every
lover of the Union. As it is, I can only draw atten
tion to the fact that Mr. Caleb Cope, No. 306 Wal
nut street, is the Treasurer of the Relief Associa
tion, in this city, and that abundant proof has been
furnished that the funds given for this purpose have
been judiciously applied.

GISSERAL RICKETTS* CHARGE SfKAR GOAL HARBOR.
A narrow belt of woods intervened between Rick
etts 5 division and tlio enomy, and on emerging from
it into a ploughed field, the position of the.enemy.
was plainly visible on a wooded crest beyond.A.
heavy fire of musketry and artillery was immedi
ately opened upon them by the rebels in their
works *. but through this deadly storm our men
steadily advanced over the ploughed field, through
an intervening swamp,and, with a gallant determi-.
nation. never before excelled in the*history of the
war; at the'point of the bayonet drove the enemy
from his earthworks, and held them during the night
against repented and furious assaults. - .
In this splendid charge the division of General
Ricketts captured 650 prisoners, together with seve
ral stands of colors." ; The extreme gallantry of the
men of Ricketts’ division, in this instanco_, is an em
phatic denial of the.imputation of inefficiency, with
which they were charged In the battles of the Wil
derness by certain correspondents, who failed to in
vestigate the facts in the case. The following letter
speaks for itself
June 1,1864.
Major Gkk. Wright.: Please give my thanks to
Brigadier General Ricketts and his gallant com
mand for the very handsome manner in which they
have conducted themselves to-day. The success at
tained by them is ofgreat : importance, and Jf fol
lowed up will materially advance our operations.

[From the Richmond Sentinel, May 31.3
Operations at the front have frequently confound
ed calculations, and turned speculation hither aud
thither with short turns and little ceremony. ' Now :
Grant has been retreating on Fredericksburg, and
anon he is at Spottsylvania C. H. Now again he
meets with a disaster that would have sent a reasona
bleman back to Lincoln, but quickly he is flank
marching for liiciimond. : Now he crosses the North
Anna and confronts Loe. apparently for battle ; but
night comes nml he steals away, and starts for tho
Peninsula. Now he crosses at Hanovertown In his
supposed flight to his new base ; but, last and latest,
■we learn that his face is again turned toward Kich
mond, and that he confronts Leo on tho Tolopa
toniy creek, with prospect of immediate fight.
It is lime for us all to cease speculations as to Grant’s
movements , and, attend to the facts. He has been offer
ing fight when we thought he was retreating, and
retreating when ce thought he was offering... fight *,
he has boon advancing uttim he mas whipped, and
heading up stream when he had every reason to hurry
down He has gone by.the.rule of military; contra
riness, and has always disappointed us whenever we
supposed that he was acting sensibly or consistently
with himself. We suppose that ho has come to tho
final fight at last; though, warned by experience,
we express the opinion with becoming doubt. ,
Ifthore ever was a time for solomn, earnest prayer,
it is now. We stand in the: midst of dangers, the
dire extentof,wiiich, in caseoradversity, canscarce
ly he conceived. A hostile army, mighty in num
bers, and fierce and bitter in hatred against us, is al
most at the very doors of our capital and our homes,
manoeuvring and endeavoring by fair means and by
foal to snatch away the ,precious heritage of our
birthright, and reduce us to tho most abject slavery.
This is no time, therefore, for people to gather on
the street corners and boast , what wo will do, or
proudly predict what will be done, and censure this
officer ana that brigade of troops. But instead of
vain glory and the spirit of pride and 1 boastfulness
which we have in so large a degree, we should exer
cise tho spirit of prayer, and daily in the church aud
in the closet, anti around, the family hearth, we
should beseech God to give us vietory, and inspire
our gallant defenders. with a, divine valor, and so
guide ouf leaders that- their wisdom may not be at
fault.' 'With a nation in prayer for this blessing, it
would be speedily vouchsafed. Let our daily prayer
meetings, therefore, he always largely attended, and
in public and private, let all unite their, prayers for
the safety and welfare of our beloved country.—Pc

Mr. Chase's loan poliey.is at last made pnbllc. In an
other column of to-day’s Press will lie found the adver
tisement for proposals for $75,000,000 of 6 perceat.coin
iutere.st bonds, redeemable after the 30th June, ISSI. The
coupon and registered bonds are to be of the denomina
tions of $5O, $lOO, $5OO, aud $l,OOO. Registered bonds of
$5,000 and $lO,OOO will also be issued if required. Offers
will be received until the noon of Thursday, June 16.
The instalments on accepted bids are required Jobe
paid, on or before the 20th June, one-third on
or before' the 25tli June, and one* third on or before the
30lh June. ;
The prevailing opinion on the market 16 that Mr.
.Chase would secure better offers bad he given a longer
period for the. payment of the loan. The withdrawal
of so much money within fourteen days will certainly
produce a stringency in the money market that bidders
wilt take into account in their offers. ' "
" The Assistant Treasurer of the United States, Mr. Mc-
Intyre,-wftose office Is at the Mint, advertises that he is
authorized, to take deposits on account of the United
States temporary loan : at the'rate of six per cent, per
annum, and holders of certificates bearing a lower rate
•'caifexchange them for those bearing six per cent, with
out the usual ten days 1 notice.
There was very little anuimation at, the Stock Board
yesterday. The most remarkable feature of the day
was the further large advance in gold, the cause of
which it is not easy to explain. - There was certainly no
newafrom the army to warrant such an advance, and
the only plausible theory that could be given for it wan
tliat the importations at New York are increasing to an
alarming which is used with telling effect
by the gambler* in gold. .'Government securities were
unchanged.; The five-twenties sold at 1053 f, the seven
thirties at 110, and certificates of indebtedness at 9S>£.
State fives were steady at 99. There was no change in
city sixes. A lot of Aliegheny-county coupon fives sold
atSl>4. In bonds there was very little doing. Penn
sylvania first mortgage was steady at 117,and Camden
and Amboy mortgage bonds sold up to 109 ft. Philadel
phia and Erie sixes were steady at 109.-
There was rather more activity in shares; Reading
opened at TO, and closed at buyer 31; Pennsylvania
'Railroad declined to 71>£, and Northern Central to ss,
buyer 30;• Northern Pennsylvania declined to 33?*, and
Caiawissa preferred to 42. The common advanced >4.
Philadelphia and Erie, and Norristown, were un
changed. The transactions'in canals were confined to
Morris and Union, the fanner at S 6&, and the latter
(bonds) at 27; no change.’ - The coal companies were in
active, andlower. FultoiffellitiT X, and North Carbon-,
dale In oil companies there was more
general improvement in prices; OilCieek, MoCiinlock,
.Perry, Mineral, and Maple Shade, were alliiigl§feThe'
most material advance was in Rock Oil* which sold up
.to s»*n fact which is attributable to the increased pro
ductions of the Egbert and Hyde farm, on which ihe
Rock Oil property is located.
