Below we publish a letter from the father bf
Harry White, which should have acediniiiinied
the resignation of

UMW of the EVENING . TELEGRAPH, yesterday.
We consider it due to Judge White that'a word
of our own should preface his,letter , , explanal .
tory of.certain points to which he does not.al
lude. Since the meeting of the Legislature,
and. during the delay *hi& - has 'attended its
prOCeedings, public opinion'ia,:s divided as to
the policy of withholding the 'resignation of
Senator White. Many men' even went so far
as to censure Judge White for refusing or'ne
glecting to, preSent the resignation of, his son
to the proper authorities., Others; impelled
by low personal motives and a desiril to 'emit
the natural spleen which ever seethes in' their
hearts, basely assailed 'ay:t r urtbi, charging
',-
that he actually had pOsses'sion* the,
_
resignation, and.for - eome reason only known
to himself; refused_ to - riiiike the document
public. When Judge White became %prised
of this perversion of the troth he;solicill.dfrom
the Philadelphia Inquirer,.Where..the'lltliriati;•

How. Joni.-P. PEN NE . ; Speaker of the Senate of
Pennsylvania:
Sinln tendering you the' resignation of
Major Harry White, of bite seat as a member of
the 'Senate of Pennsylvania; a few.words
explanation :of ,the delay may not be improper.
Although dated on the 16th November last, •
it did not reachine >for more thanra•month af
ter that period, and being then engaged in
endeavoring, through a private ,channel, to ef
fect his release, with every prospect of success,
the delivery of the resignation was postponed.
That. effort, through an unfortunate event,,
failed. , But at that time an effort mita being
made by the General Gov,exinuent, ; whic - h
in common with.others to whom it wrasXtiOwn,
had every reason to believe,Oid to'hope Would
be successful, and: trouble ifia expense Would
b.e.. ttais-aaVed Axe
Senate would,be *osition do business
sooner than by ai fy - cithec course :
The result is known,, and_ therefore I hand
you the resignation Of Maj: 'Harry White,
which has never beert.Out nif posseshion
for a single moment siuce,l received
ThrOtighout the whele transaction I hare acted.
in good, taith, from the purest motives_. and
without any view of self-interest. The -docu
ment was sent to me to be used at such time
and in such manner, as in my didoretion
should think proper.
Ile is a son for whom I feel the most
tender affection. He has a Thmily whose'feel
ings have been most paiOully exercised dur
ing his prolonged captivity, and I had.every
reason to believe as well as to hope that pub
lic interests would not suffer by withholding
this repignation for a short time,
Very Aspectfully, 4
Your'obedient' servant,

ATTACK ON MOBILE.
fnrilsr.O.E, Ala., Jan. 31
I have just arrived from . Chattanooga: Be
fore I left there, Genera returned
from a reconnoissance to Ringgold and Dal
ton.
The main force of the enemy had undoubt
edly left, and General Palmer supposed: they
had gone to reinforce_Longstreet, with a pur
pose of invading Kentucky.
Since arriving here I have obtained infor
mation which satisfies me that Hardee has
reinforced the enemy at Mobile. -An attack
was undoubtedly made upon Mobile. Within
the past five days persons have solicited per
mission to go through- the lines to attend
their relatives ,whom they reprentei} as be
ing wounded at Mobile:
Positive information may be expected of an
attack on that-place and its probable fall.
