BY TELEGRAPH. From our Morning Edition. FROM WASHINGTON. Important Proclamation by the President. -*- TIME PROCLAMATION OF DEN. HUNTER REPUDIATED. General Totton on the Forts and sea- Cost Defences. WASHINGTON, MV 19 The President has issued a proclamation re pudiating the alleged pr i clamation of General Hunter as unauthorized, and of no validity and effect, and reserving to himself alone the right to determine whether he can constitutionally adopt such a pulicy if the contingencies of the war eventually make it necessary. Gen, Totten, chief of the Engineer Depart ment, has replied to the engineers ou the sub ject of the changes which may have become necessary in forts and other means of defence. He lava down'llie following principles, and which have always been maintained by engi gineers, namely: Forts must fall before a com petent land attack, and forts are competent to resist and repel vesEele. Both of these princi ples have been well settled by military experi ence, and have received full illustration in the recent attack on Fort Pulaski. After an elaborate agument, he states the fol lowing conclusions: That the plans of our sea• board batteries cf the simplest possible character cannot be im t roved essentially ; that the ma terials being the strongest, most indestructible, imperishable, and cheapest possible, no change can be made in them with advantage ; that iron has been used for years to guard the thinnest and and most exposed parts of these batteries, audits further use is perfectly easy on the existing work- to any extent, and it is a question of ec..nomy merely ; it will be applied wherever needed ; the walls may be entirely iron covered. That all the changes in ordnance and projectiles are greatly in favor of land batteries and against vessels, in any combat between the two. That guns of unlimited size can easily be mounted and covered on laud ; that no vessel can be built and floated that will not be penetrable to projectiles from such guns ; that one shot rightly delivered will probably sink the vessel, while the fort cannot be seriously injured by the return fire of the vessel'; that the methods of naval warfare cannot avail in such a contest; that all the best results of modern science, skill and experience are incorporated into these de fences, as soon as these results are found to be That while forts can now as always heretofore be readily reduced by land batteries, they can, n'A be reduced when duly armed and manned by vessels. That the use of steam is a very great and only exclusive advantage which modern times have afforded to vessels. That this advantage can he countervailed only by increasing the number and especially the cali bres of the guns of the land batteries. That the need for a full supply of guns for our forts is very great ; the want of them is dangerous. That large calibres are insisted upon and to be furnished immediately. It is not intended by what has been said to dispense with the employment of floating de fences for our coasts at the different points where their use is advantageous. [SECOND DISPAICH.] By the President of the United States of America: A PROCLAMATION WILSIGAS, there appears in the public prints what purports to be a proclamation of Major general Hunter in the words and figures, to-wit: HEAD QUARTFES, HILTON HEAD, S. C., } Nay 9, 1862. GENERAL ORDER, } NO. 11. The three States of Georgia, Florida and South Carolina, comprising the military de partment of the South, having deliberately declared themselves no longer under the pro tection of the United States of America, and having taked up arms against the same, it be comes a. military necessity to declare them under martial law. This was accordingly done ou the 25th day of April, 1862. Slavery and martial law in a free country are altogether in compattible. The persons in these three States, Georgia, Florida and South Carolina, hereto fore held as slaves, are therefore declared for ever free. (Official.) (Signed) DAVID HUNTER, Major General Commanding EDWARD W. SMITH, Acting Assistant Adjutant General And whereas, The same is producing some ex citement and misunderstanding ; therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, proclaim and declare that the Govern ment of the United States had no knowledge, information or belief of an intention, on the part of General Hunter, to issue such a pro clamation, nor has it yet any authentic information that the document is genuine, and further, that neither General Hunter or any other commander or person has been authorized by the government of the United States to make a proclamation declaring the slaves of any State free, and that the supposed procla mation now in question, whether genuine or false, is altogether void so far as respects such declaration. • I further make known, that whether it be competent fur me, as Commander in chief of the Army and Navy to declare the slaves of any State or States free, and whether at any time, in any case, it shall have become a necessity indispensible to the maintenance of the Government, the exercise of such supposed powers are questions which un der my responsibility I reserve to myself and which I cannot feel justified in leaving to the decision of commanders in the field. Theodore totally different questions from those of police relations in armies and camps. On the sixth day of March last, by a special message, I recommended to Congress the adop- tion of a joint resolution to be substantially as follows: Resolved, That the United States ought to co operate with auy State which may adopt a gradual abolition ment of slavery, giving to suli State pecuniary aid to be used by such States in its direction, to compensate for the Inconveni ences of public and private losses produced by such change of system. The resolution in the language above quoted was adopted by large majorities in both branches of Congress and now stands an au- (11 ' F/ 1 9 1" tun _ 7 4 VOL XVIII thentic, definite and solemn proposal of the Nation to the State and people most -imme diately interested M the sut;ject matter. To the people of those States I now earnestly appeal. I do not argue. I beseech you to makel the argument for yourselves, you can not if you would be blind to the signs of the times I beg of you a calm and enlarged consideration of them, ranging if it may be far above personal and partizan poli tics. This proposal makes common cause for a common object, casting no reproaches upon any. It acts not the pharasee. The change it contemplates would come gently as the dews of Heaven, not rending or wrecking anything. Will you not embrace it. So much good has not been done by one effort in all past time, or in the providence of God, it is no* your high privilege to do. May the vast future not have to lament that you have negleited it. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seel of the United States to be affixed. Done at the city of Washington this nineteenth day of May, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and fifty-six, and of the independence of the United States the eighty-sixth. ABRAHAM LINCOLN By the President. WILLIAM R. SEWARD, Secretary of State GLF.RIOUS NEWS FROM THE OLD NORTH STATE. [From the Newbera Progress, May 10.] The information which wegive below is grati fying to the lover of his country. North Caro lina at last begins to awake to the fact that J. Davis & Co., have been making a cat's paw of the Old North State to poke their chestuts out of the fire, and refuses longer to submit to the disgrace and burden which has been imposed upon her by the scoundrels at Richmond. The old patriotic fires which binned so brightly at Alamance and Mecklenburg are rapidly devel oping themselves, and we trust will burn with an increasing brilliancy upon the altars of liberty. North Carolina is in a fair way of being regenerated trom the thraldom of sin and rebeldom. We trust that this may prove the harbinger of better days, and that bright pros pects are ahead for our beloved country. We obtain the news by way of Washington, and direct from Raleigh. The arrest of Mayor ReSpess, of Washington, N. C., who was seized in the night time in the most summary manner and hurried off to Richmond in irons, is creating a most intense excitement in the State. The Governor of the State, (who is not in prison, as reported) back ed by the Convention, sent a peremptory de mand to the Richmond authorities for the im- mediate delivery of the person of Mayor Respells, who was kept in close confinement.— His trial WM - in progress when they received 1 the demand and the authorities at Richmond informed the committee sent by Governor Clark that there were a few mote witnesses to appear in the case, and they 'desired to complete the trial. The committee informed the authorities at Richmond that the person of the mayor must be delivered up forthwith, otherwise North Carolina would send a force to back up the demand of the Convention. Mr. Respess was delivered over to the committee, and went to Raleigh rejoicing. He was set at liberty and is now on his way home to Washington, where the Union citizens are preparing to give him an ovation. This committee was also instructed to, and did, deliver an order to the Virginia chivalry that North Carolina was capable of managing her own affairs, and that no more of her citizens must be taken out of the State. In connection with this matter we also learn that J. Davis, a few days since ordered Gov. Clark to furnish them all the means of trans portation and defence possible to aid them in the passage to and through the cotton States, and also for additional troops. Gov. Clark, backed by the Convention, informed him that he had received all the aid from North Carolina that he could expect, and that hereafter no more troops would be permitted to leave the State, and has ordered all the North Carolina State troops home. - Gov. Clark informed the rebels that they could use the railroads in retreating homewards, and that they would run their own risk of being intercepted by a Union force at any part of the State. The above information comes from a member of the Convention. Governor Clark, of North Carolina, Op poses the Act of the Rebel Military Authorities. [From the Raleigh, N. C., Standard, April 26.] State of North Carolina, &waive Department, Raleigh, April 15, 1862. To TEE PEOPLE Or NORTH CAROLENA:-By an advertisement in the public papers, signed W. S. Ashe, you are informed that he will appoint and send agents through every county in the State to borrow, purchase, and, if necessary, to impress all the ands now in the hands of private citizens. Any attempt to seize the arms of our citizens is directly at variance with the Constitution, and in opposition to the declared policy of the Government, which makes it the duty of every citizen to keep and bear arms, and protects the arms of the militia even from execution for debt. But while I notify you that these agents have no lawful authority to seize your private arms, and you will be protected in preserving the the means of self-defence. I must enjoin upon you in this emergency, as an act of the highest patriotism and duty, that you should discover to the proper State authorities all public arms, muskets or rifles, within your knowledge, and of selling to the State all the arms, the proper ty of individuals which can be spared. The colonels of the several regiments will act as agents for the State, and will notify me whenever such arms are recovered or offered to them. Their prompt and earnest attention is called to the execution of this order. HENRY T. CLARK, Governor ex officio. April 18, 1862. MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH Cotton quiet at 27.1(4291..

List of Sick and Wounded Nen in the St, Joseph's (Military) Hospital) LIST OF BODIES -EMBALMED SURGEON GENERAL'S OFFICE, STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA, May 14th, 1862. 1112 Walnut St., Philadelphia. Sitt—ln obedience to your orders of April 16th, 1862, and on reception of telegram from the Medical Director of the army of the Foto- UM in referen‘ e to services of surgeons in con nection with the siege of Yorktown, I collected the following gentlemen, who volunteered to serve for two weeks under my command, and in obedience to the regulations of the hospital department of Pennsylvania. Surgeons.—R. J. Levis, R. P. Thomas, David Gilbert, Wm. L. Halsey, N. H. Fish, Lawrence Turnbull, C. S. Bishop, D. S. Gloninger, H. Lennox Hodge, J. W. S. Morris, I. lII' Bride, Wm. P. Morn. Assistant Surgeons. —Wm. H. Campbell, Geo. W. Nebinger, Jno. Flynn, Ed. F. Gush, Joseph W. Applegate. Attendants.—Wm. Salvador, Wm. Phillips. Cook: Jno. Lacy, (colored.) Mr. Oscar Thompson volunteered to act as my secretary and assist the wounded, and Capt. I. P. Bankson, of the Quartermaster General's Department of Pennsylvania, volunteered to accompany the party as quartermaster, etc. Sixty packages of stores, embracing bedding, and surgical and medical appliinces of every kind, were also forwarded, in advance, to Fort Hisnroe, to await our movements. Leaving Philadelphia April 18th, we landed at Fort Monroe on the morning of the 19th, and at once reported to medical director, I. M. Cuyler, to whose prompt and courteous atten tions we were indebted for quarters and facili ties in the prosecution of our duties. Having iortunately met the Hon. Jno. Tucker, Assist ant Secretary of War, at the Fortress, every facility of transportation was furnished ; the accomplishment of the wishes of your excellency being greatly aided by him. Leaving half the party at the Fortress, the balance were sent at Ir. x. ' to Cheeseman's Lending, within four miles of Yorktown, where leaving them I reported at headquarters to medical director Wipler, and was warmly wel comed. Finding it difficult to locate the party in the face of the enemy, and there being at the moment no occasion for their services, they re turned to Fortress Monroe to await events, and prepare for service at an hour's notice. April 22d.—Having obtained from Mr. Tucker orders placing the propeller "W hill din" at my disposal as long as I should deem it ne cessary, I proceeded to take on board straw, water, etc., obtaining my stores with much ddlibulty, owing to the great demand on the quartermaster's department, caused by the hourly departure of troops. Leaving assistant surgeons Campbell, Gush and Flynn on duty at the "Hygeia" hospital, Fortress Monroe, where the United States had a large number of wounded in excellent hospitals, I started with the rest of the party for Cheeseman's landing, I there found the body of Lieutenant Wagner, of the Topographical Engineers, awaiting trans portation, it having been missed f.y the boat, and consequently delayed for 24 hours. lat once had a tent pitched, and embalmed it, for warding it the next day to his friends, hundreds of whom subsequently had the satisfaction of seeing him, which otherwise would have been impossible. Proceeding the same evening to General M'Clellan's headquarters, I was happy in being selected by medical director Tripler, United States army, to take charge, in behalf of the United States, of the fine steamer Commodore. This boat I at once proceeded to furnish and fit up as a "general hospital" for the wounded of all the States, she being capable of carrying 1,000 men. The selection of our party for this duty was highly complimentary to the State, the sanitary commission having an agent on the spot ready to aid in the same duty. Dividing the party, we prepared one boat for the United States, the other for Pennsylvania volunteers, entirely from our own stores, and those furnished by the United States, and in 24 hours telegraphed to headquarters we were ready, having prepared 200 beds. The same day received Lieutenant Walton, of Averill's cavalry sick from exposure. April 251h.—Secured provisions and medical stores from the U. S. commissary and medical purveyor, and put up bunks, filled bedsacke, etc., etc., in preparation for the reception of the wounded. At BP. at., received Lieutenant Colonel Bartlett, wounded this morning in the knee so as to shatter the limb, and require am putation on the field, after which he rode 7 hours. We at once supplied him with food, etc., he having eaten nothing for 26 hours.— We ale odressed the limb. April 26th.—All the party were engaged in preparing litters, staging, apothecary shop, arranging stores, etc. During the ensuing week we were continually occupied with the reception and care of the wounded daily injured in the trenches. We have embalmed since our arrival and to this date six bodies as per register annexed. May 2d.—Drs. Dobbins, of Bellefonte, Craw ford, of Juniata, Pepper, Morris and Broad man, of Philadelphia, reported for duty. Sur geons Gilbert, Moon, M'Bride, and Gtoninger returned to Philadelphia. May 4th.—At 7A. M., received news from headquarters that our flag floated over York town, the rebels having evacuated the place. I at once rode to headquarters and consulted with medical director Tripler. At 5 P. it., while taking on board wounded men received a telegram from surgeon Tripler, to get up steam on the Whilldin and Commodore and run round to Yorktown as soon as possible. As both boats were aground, owing to a very low tide, we were unable to get the Whilldin off until P. M., the Commodore following at 4A. M. next day, both boats having to obtain pi lots. In the meantime we received a number of men wounded in Yorktown by treading on torpedoes left in the rebel works. General Heintzleman's corps are in full pursuit. Heavy firing is heard and the rebels are reported six miles beyond Yorktown.. Drs. Grose, of Pitts burg, and Pepper Morrie, of Philadelphia, be ing desirous of returning home left the liospi telt. During our stay at Cheeseman's landing we have entirely equipped both boats and at tended over 250 patients. IsTim Tux, May 19 Nay sth.—Reached Yorktown, and at once prepared for wounded, some of whom came on board this night. )Jay 6th.—Receiving wounded all day and night. Dr. Hodge was sent for by the Sanitary Commission to go on board the Ocean Queen to, aid in receiving one hundred and fifty patients from the sick of the hospital at Yorktown. After rendering such service as he could, there beiug no other physician, he returned to che Hay 7th, &h and 9th.—Night and day were spent in bringing wounded on board, and dres:- ing their wounds. Over sixteen hundred wounded men received the attention of our surgeons. Ninety-seven of the - Confederate wounr'ed were also carefully attended to as per list annexed, at the same time the Pennsylvania wounded were arranged and dressed on the Whilklin. Visited all the hospitals on short as far in the advance as Williamsburg, and a ranged to receive their patients. The Commo dore being full, Drs. Worthington, Crawford, Dobbins, Boardman, Snimp; Morris, Flynn and Gush went with the patients, May 9th, to Fort Monroe. Drs. Nebinger and Thomss also went, but returned to the Whilldin. May 9th. —Loaded the steamers Daniel Web ster and Jno. Brooks with wounded for the United States. May 10th. —Most, if not all the wounded be ing'received, I sent to headquarters for orders to leave. May 11th.—Received Dr. Tripler at landing, with sixty wounded. Carried them to the Jno Brooks and left them in charge of Dr. Cabot, of Boston, and three New Jersey surgeons. Having fulfilled our mission, We left Queen's Creek and ran to Fort Monroe, arriving in the evening. Reported to Dr. Cuyler, and visited the Hygeia and. Seminary hospitals, where I found about ninety sick and a few wounded Pennsylvanians, and agreed to take them home to relieve the hospitals, which were quite full, and expecting to receive six hundred patients the next day. Jtay 12th.—Engaged all day, at Fort Monroe, in receiving wounded and sick, and taking in coal and water. Left for Philadelphia with one hundred and sixty-five on board, at 5 P. M. At 10 p: 31., on the 12th May, we arrived at Vine street wharf. Mayor Henry having ordered a large police force under chief Ruggles to at tend to the disembarkation of the wounded, and also to aid in carrying them into the hos pital, this movement was readily and quickly accomplished arta we are indebted to the police for most valuable services at'a late hour of the night. During this arduous service, of four weeks' duration, I have been most ably seconded by all the medieatofficers of the party but espe cially by Surgeons R. P. Thomas, H. Lennox Hodge, G. W. Nebinger and J. Campbell, who from first to last, were untiring in their efforts to aid the wounded and second the plans of the State. Sisters Monica, Philomene, Camillus, Mary, Anselm, Lorentia, Felix and Burns, of the Sisters of Mercy and of the Order of St. Joseph exhibited a, self-sacrificing spirit, directed by such sound judgment, as won the esteem and affection of all. Mr. Oscar Thompson aided me greatly in conducting an extended correspondence with the friends of soldiers on, or supposed to be on the field, as well as in the transportation of the Capt. T. P. Bankson added much to the com fort and usefulness of the party by his activity and enterprise in securing stores, &c. He proved a valuable addition to the party. In affording relief to the New Jersey volun teers and troops of other States, the arrange ments of Pennsylvania were eminently useful and gratefully acknowledged ; in fact thii State was the only one represented near Yorktown by a free and independent arrangement for the relief of the wounded. • The embalming of the dead afforded great satisfaction, the chief regret being that its ben efits could not be extended to those seeking it for dead soldiers of other States by whom innumerable applications were made.— The few exceptions hereafter exhibited were, in accordance with special and earnest requests of the parties named. Four bodies of Pennsylvania soldiers killed at West Point were by mistake sent past me to Fort Monroe, where the authorities ordered them to be buried owing to advanced decomposition. Most of the Penn sylvania regiments in the neighborhood of Yorktown were brigaded with other States, and so scattered as not to be within reach of our services for their men. Comparatively few also were engaged or suffered in the various actions from Yorktown to West Point. The Pennsylvania Reserve regiments were not with Gen. McClellan. The wounded are now comfortably located at St. Joseph's Hospital, Philadelphia, corner of Girard Avemie and' Seventeenth street, which is held by the State for the use of our troops. They are all doing well, and have every pros pect of recovery. Of the fifty badly wounded men brought by me from Winchester and placed in this Hospital, all have recovered ex cept three, who died from the effects of their wounds. No one has lOst a limb since entering the Hospital. The friends of the wounded are admitted to the Hospital after 8 P. at. daily, except Sunday, this being quite as much ex citement as can be borne by patients who are seriously injured. The expenditures will be presented to the Auditor General in the usual form, but as yet have been quite small in proportion to the number relieved. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, HENRY H. SMITH, Surgeon Gen. of Penna. To Ris Excellency, A. G. Curtin, Governor of Pa. LIST OF PENNSYLVANIA. VOLUNTEERS, WOUNDED, NOW IN ST. JOSEPH'S HOSPITAL, PHIL' A. Peter L.
