Wednesday Morning, March Whine%
GENERAL Iif'OALL
The State Capitol, within a few days past,
has boom rife with rumors of the most painful
character, calculated to effect the reputation of
this gallant and distinguished gentleman and
soldier. These rumors have not, as we are
aware; dammed any official shape, and there
fore it is not necessary. to refer to them any fur
ther than to seriously question their truthful
nest, and confidently to rely on the facts for shill
vindication of Gen. M'Call from any implied or
expressed charge of derilection of duty as a
soldier or a man. In regard to the march made
by the division of Gen. M'Call, during which
it was asserted that he had harassed his troops'
by a useless and tedious departure front a regular
route to a certain point, we now have the
testimony of those who participated in that
march, that this departure was the result of a
necessity growing out of the vandalism of the
rebels. We quote the following extract from a
letter, dated "Camp near Alexandria, Virginia,
March 17, 1862," received in this city by Mr.
Armstrong, from his son, ..1". C. Armstrong,
who bi attached to 11,'Call's division, fully ex
plaining this whole metter :
' , We left Camp Plerpont about eleven o'clock,
last Monday morning, and had ,e very tiresome
march of fifteen miles, not halting iuntilabout
seven.; o'clock in the evening. My knapsack
was so heavy for me, that I had to stop on the
road and throw out two shirts, a pair of drawers
and a pair of stockings, for I was determined
to keep up with my regiment, if 'I should be
obliged to throw awl) , all-my baggage. Num
bers of the men threw away their overcoats,
blankets, boots, Btoand a great many gave
out before we stopped. The next morning we
marched about three miles, and then, being
about six miles from Centreville, we' halted.—
Our company was sent out as a picket guard
and occupied the same poet that the rebels had
occupied the dambefore. The following day
we-gotithe mews that the rebe's evacuated.Cen
teevilla and Manama, and that• both places
were‘leld by another division of our men:—
This was rather a disappointment to us ' for we
expected sOlutve the pleasure of driving than ouf
of those places. • We rethained encamped there
until Friday, when we received 'ordere to ;get
ready' to march iminediatelP for 'Alexandria,
from which pl 'dee we would go, by water, (des
tination not named.) That evening we marched
about four miles, till we came to the Alexan
dria and Leesburg turnpike, where we camped
for the tight. The next day we started at *seven
o'clock, a.. a. and on account of the bridge, below
us on the pike, having been destroyed, we had a round
about way of over ten miles to go, when we struck the
pike, bed about four miles furthe r on than we were in
the inerning, This was the hardest march I have
had since I have btien in the army."
It is to be hoped , that this letter, written im
mediately after this march, when the facts were
all fresh is the writer's mind,and when he could
hate no possible object in communicating any
Whitt:nation but the truth, will forever silence
the tougurof slander that has so recklessly,
wagged against General M'Call for the, limit few
weeks.
TER MISSION TO ROWSLi.
The telegraphic announcement in the .phffa
delphis inquiry, to the effect that Gen. Canieron
had in contemplation the purpose of resigning
his position as miaisten to Russia, is one of the
wholesale sensation paragraphs peculiar to the
inquirer, and is false in every particular. Gen.
Cameron has completed his arrangements, and
will sail for Europe, en route to St. Petersburg,
in a very few days. This is all the announce.
spent necessary to explode the fabrication of
our Philadelphia (*temporary.
A oortanspouniar writing from Nashville and
the Cumberland, says that the most bitter seces
sionists are the women, and It is the opinion
that it is part of the secession programme to
urge these females to such indiscretion and
indecencies as-to provoke retaliation, and thus
make capital out of it. Our soldiers bear the
taunts of the she-devils with becoming forti
tude, and merely laugh at their ravings. The
hospitals at and about Nashville, and on the
Ohio river, are in pretty fair condition, though
scarcely adequate to the command. There is
an abundant supply of beds and bedding, those
&Melds having been p ured in by Sanitary
Osnamiseion from every quarter. Ent there Is
a sad lack of proper food. The invalids are
suffering everywhere on this account, and many

THE TWO SUPERINTENDENTS.
/Inch has been said and written in raiment:le
to those who have been and still are connected
with the different railroads of the country, di
rectly engaged in the transportation of troops,
supplies and munitions of war, commending
them for their energy, sagacity and prompt
ness. We have no opposition to urge to all this
approval. We are rather inclined to endorse
this commendation, and while we do so, we
deem it entirely in place to refer to two indi.
vidnals in whose sial and perseverance the
traveling public and the government of the
United States have been much indebted; and
while we make this reference, we protest most
solemnly against any attempt to win the favor
either of those thus rutmed,or from the company
for which,they act. In fact, we have no person
al acquaintance with one of these gentlemen,
while the other is only one of the recollections
of, our boyhood, a recollection which has been
darkened by, time, and is now fiarther dimthed
by those stem years of age, which cast their
shadows over all that is bright and glorious.
.We allude to the superintendents of the east
ern and western divisions of the Pennsylvania
Itailroad,Obaries J. Fransiscus, of Philadelphia,
and Samuel H. Young, of Harrisburg. These
' gentlemen have been connected with the trans
portation business for years, and started with
the Pennsylvania railroad when that enterprise
was in an,intried,experiment and when neither
of theni dreamed of filling positions of the re
sponsibility and labor they now occupy. Thily
have grown,with the road, and as it enlarged
its business and extended its lines, they gather
ed knowledge and, became efficient, until they
found themselves in positions as honorable as
any in business and as responsible as any in
life, because while they are, daily brought in
contact 'beet of ;their fellow citizens,
theyttave,o4ly cittm t i tle limbs and the
lives.4thtinisantis oeiturntinebeings.
The Pennsylvania railroad has long since
adottifir an4 . 113' 'now steadily pursuin., a princi
ple of promotion among all its employee's,
which, while it results In success to the busi
nesk awakens the energy„and stimulates 'the
ambition of the people in its employ. With
this road, a man must earn , promotion, as well
Iby bis . term, of service tut ability to serve.
And on these qualifiCations and merits, Messrs.
Young and Fransiscus itai"%eirleen to their present
position. We refer to these facts now, because
as we wrote above, there has been so much
written and printed in relation to others in the
same connection, a fact, alone, which reminded
us of doing credit to the gentlemen in ques
tion.

Progress of Banks' Command.
Wrectutsraa, March 25—Evening.—It is cur•

wagons.,
Gen. Banks, who was on his way to Wash
ington, on Sunday, returned.and atinumed com
mand
In Abe, 'meantime, Gen. Shields' 'division,
commanded . by Col Kimball, pursued the
enemy beyond Newtown, shilling them the
;whole way.
Jackson's men, who were perfectly demoral
ised and btyund control, threw overboard their
dead and wounded, to lighten the Wagons in
theirsetrest. . 4
It is a noticeable fact that nearly all of the
rebels wounded were shot in the head and
breast, thus showing the superiority of our
marksmen.
Those of our troops principally engaged were
se follows;
. The Eighty-fourth Pennsylvania Regiment ;
the One-hundred-and tenth, Pennsylvania Regi
ment; the Fourth Ohio Reginient; the Seventh
Ohio Regiment; the Eighth Ohio Regiment;
the,Seventl. Indiana Regiment ; the Thirteenth
Indi.na Regiment: the Fourteenth Indiana
...Regiment ; the First Virg inia Regiment; the
Michigan Cavalry ; Daum 's Battery of Parrott
gins.
. It: .Ssras evidently known to many in Win
chester that Jackson was approaching,from the
holiday attire and buoyancy of spirits previ
ously dieplitied' by numbers of the Secession
residents, both men and women.
The fact of Gen. Shield's command having
titan screened fr m observation on the east
side of the town, led the informants of Jackson
to believe that all our troops were evacuating,
and that Jackson could enter unobstructed.—
This evidence is derived from the prisoners .
Goo i judges estimate the enemy's loss at over
,two hundred killed, Ave hundred wounded,and
three hundred prisoners, including an aid-de-
Pimp Jacksou:s staff.
Our loss was sixty-live killed and about one
hundred and twenty five wounded.

Foimumes-Ifonon, March 25
The U. S. steamer Cambridge arrived here
this morning from the blockade off Beaufort,
N. C., which she left on Sunday evening.
The rebel steamer Nashville escaped from
the harbor on Tuesday night, the eighth inst.,
having run the blockade.
The only United States vessels off the place
were the Cambtidge and the bark Geonsbok,
sailing vessels.
The blockading vessels had news of the cap
ture of Newbem, and were on the look-out for
the Nashville, hut they were not numerous
enough to prevent her escape.
The Gemsbok just saw the Nashville, and
immediately telegraphed to the Cambridge
that she was coming out. The latter followed
her and Bred a number of shots, but the supe
rior speed of. the Nashville soon put her at a
safe distance. Two shots from the Cambridge
are supposed to have struck the Nashville.
The bark Glenn which has been blockaded
in the harbor of Beaufort for some time was
set on fire by the rebels on Sunday and was
