OUR SPECIAL DISPATCHES.
Special Dispatch to the Pittsburgh Ouette.
Wabhuotoh, Jan. lfi, 1863.
lsttib rao* thi raisiDur to x'glklla*.
The following important letter from the
President to Gen. McClellan, which forms a
put of the correspondence between them, and
for whieh Congress hu called, wu brought
out to-day In the MoDowell Court of Inquiry.
Its importance Is se great that we transmit it
in foil:
Washugtov, Aprils, 1862.
To Major General McClellan:
MV Dun Be*: Your dispatches com
plaining that yon are not properly sus
tained, while they do not effena me, pafa me
very much. Bleaker'# division wu with
drawn from yon before yon left here, and you
knew the pressure under which I did it, and
as l thought acquissoed init, certainly not
without xelnotanoc. After you left I ascer
tained that less than twenty thousand unor
ganised men, without a single field battery,
were ail yon designed to be left for the de
fence of Wuhingion and Manutu Junction,
and a part of these even were to go to General
Hooker's old position. . Gen. Banks* corps,
oOoe designed for Manusu Junction, wu di
vided, and tied up on the line of Winchester
and Strubnrg, and could not leave it
without \ again exposing the . Upper
Potomac andthe Baltimore-and Ohio railroad.
This presented or would present when Mc-
Dowell orj Sumner should. be gone a great
temptation to the enemy to torn back from
the Bappahannook and sack Washington.
Mj explicit directions that Washington
should, by the judgment of all the command
ers ef eorps, be left entirely seonre, had been
entirely negleeted. It wu precisely this that
compelled me to detain McDowell. Ido
not forget that I wu satiated with your ar
rangements toleave Banks at Manusu, bat
when that arrangement wu broken up, and
noihing wu substituted for it, of coarse I
was not satisfied. Iwu constrained to sub
stitute something for it myself; and now allow
md to uk—“Do yon really think I should
permit the tin* from Biohmond via Manusu
to this city to be entirely open, except what
resistance conld be prevented less than
twenty thouand unorganised troops. This
Is a* question whieh the country will not
allow mo to evade. There is mys
tery k cbout the nnmber of troops now with
yon. I telegraphed yon on the 6th, saying
that yon had over 100,000 men with yon. I
had jast obtained from the Secretary of War
a statement-taken, u he said, from yonr own
returns, making 100,000 then with you, and
en route to’yon. Yon now say yon will have
but 76,000 men when all en route shall have
reaohed yon. How can this discrepancy of
26,000 be accounted for 7 As to Gen. Wool's
oommand, I understand it is doing for you
precisely what a like number of your own
.would have to do if that command wu away.
I suppose : the whole force which bu
gone forward to yon- is with yon by
this time; and if this is so, I think
it is the precise time for yon'to strike a blow.
By delay, the enemy will readily gala on yon
—that is, he will gain faster by fortifications
and reinforcements than youoan by lelnforoe
ments alone; and, once more, let me tell you.
It is indispensable to yon that yon should
strike a blow. lam powerless to help this.
You nill do mo the justice to remember that
I wu always opposed to going down the bay
in seareh of a field, instead of fighting at or
near Manusu, u it is only shifting, and
not surmounting a difficulty; that we would
find the same enemy, and the same or equal
intrenohmenta at either plaoa. The country
will not fail noting now that the present hes
itation to move upon an intrenehed enemy Is
bat the story of Manusu repeated. I beg
to usore you that 1 have never written or
spoken to yon In greater kindness of feeling
than now, nor witb a fuller purpose to sustain
Jou, so far u in my most anxious judgment
consistently can—but you must act.
Yours, very truly,
A. Liscols.
COUantBAtOEAL.
Mr. Hutchins made, apparently by author
ity, a defenoe of Secretary Chase to-day,
against the eensure in Gurley's speech of
yesterday, for not seUing bonds, unfler tho
law of lut session, to raise money for paying
soldiers.
The snbstanoe of Mr. Hntchtai' dofense
wu that Mr. Chase did not Interpret that law
u giving him power to seU the bonds. It
required him to sell them at the market value.
He could not have tbrewn so large an amount
on the market without producing a panic, and
allowing the bonds to go at a sacrifice. This,
Hntchlns contended, wonld not have been
selling at a market value within the terms of
the law.
, Mr. Gurley demanded if the market value
wu not what it weald bring in the market,
then what wu it? and further Inquired whe
ther any loyal man would have objected if
some sacrifice had been incurred in raising
money to pay the soldiers.
Mr. Hntchins thooght that there wonld
have been muoh fault found, and that it wae
better to do u Chase had done—leave the
army unpaid rather than open this door for
oavelling against his illegal actions,
Mr. Van Wysk and other members recited
cues of suffering from the failure to pay the
army, and the difficulty they had experienced
in getting any pay at all for regiments that,
in some cues, had been In the service five and
six months.
Mr. Hntchins wu badgered a good deal
with demands for an explanation of such oo
enrrenoes. The debate developed a deep feel
ing over the failure to pay the army.

ance of Qlus, Elliott A Go's proposition to
lay a submarine cable around the coast to
New Orleans. He gives the facts for the

plan is, to run a oable from Pensacola to

the Gulf, and to lay a branch Une from Pen

that the enterprise will be speedily under
taken.

Nsw York, Jan. 16.—Theateamer'Itiinois,
with New Orleans advices to the Bth, arrived
at this port to-cUy. .
Tbo rebels we^t^wc&ohtef-open -the tines
of the United States army, in the neighbor
hood of Donaldsonrille, but no danger Is ap
prehended. ;
General Banks had been in command for
a month, bat none of his plans have j#tran
spired. It wu known, however, thatbe wu
not Idle. The most of his troops had gone to
Baton Bong*. Z 7
There are rumors current effeot that
the battle began, at Vioksbnrg, on the 30th,
andjwu continued daily, but nothing very
definite is known in New Orleans u to the
result.
The affair at Galveston, on the Bth, earned
a general feeling of gloom, both in the army
and|navy. ,
Admiral Farragnt had sent the Breoklyn,
Beotia, and half a dosen of the best ships to
reoapturethe Harriet Lane, at ail hoserdi,
and; if possible, destroy the rebel gunboats
in the tiayoh Buffalo..
Of this expedition, nothing has been heard
in New Oriojsns op to the Bth last.
The following are all the details of the
Galveston disaster, to be found in the New.
Orleans papers:
At two o’clock, on the morning of the Ist
insti, lour rebel gunbeats, lined aod fortified
with cotton bales, emerged from Buffalo'
Bayou into Galvesten Bay, and moved dlreot
iy td attack our vessels. The Harriet Line
wu aground, but suooeededin getting several
well; directed shots ioto one of the steamers,
sinking her in a few minutes. Tho sharp
shooters succeeded in killing all the gunners
and CspL Wainwrigfat. When the latter fell,
the Zexu boarded the Harriet Lane and cap
tured her, meeting with a heroic defence from
her officers and men. Lieut. Lee and nearly
oD of her crow were killed.
The rebels next attacked the Westfield,
which wu also aground. After' ineffectually
attempting to get her afloat, a'oousultation
of the officers wu called by Capti Beusbaw,
and it wu uuanimoaily agreed to blow her
ap. | Most of ‘her offioer* end orsw esoaped,
but Oapt. Bonshaw, Lieut. Zimmerman, En
gineer Green, two quartermasters and feu
firemen, together with a boat’s crew of fire
men; were blown, up with; the vessel.' The
gunboat O wasco had two men killed and eleven
wonnded. The rest of the fleet escaped. The
rebels tamed the* prows of all the vessels
shoreward, where they were anchored ait'the
latent advices. On the steamer Cambria,
two companies of cavalry, the horses of the
2d Vermont cavalry, and a luge number of
women and children, bound to Galveston, had
a nohow escape' from capture on the 4th, but
she Escaped and returned, meeting the United
Btates frigate Brooklyn on her way "to Gal
vestdn. '
The Rebels Whipped at Springfield.

piokdd mounted Infantry, with 2 rifled gunsi.
The expedition wu 'fitted oat on Arkansas

thorising the State of Missouri to raise ten
thousand men for loyal defense hu been ex

The resolution wu adopted.

Mr. Fessenden,of. Me.,: ealled np the bill

■ Mr. Henderson, of Mo., called np the bill
to aid the State of Missouri in emancipating
the claves in the said Stkte, and prooeeded to
address the Senate. He endeavored to an
swer some objeotions, whioh might be urged
against the measure, and do all he conld to
secure its success. He argued at length in
favor of the constitutionality of the measure,
that there was power under the Con
stitution to'pass this measure, almost the
same a| removing the Indians from the States.
It hod seemed strange to him that tho North
wonld not oease its denunciations of slavery
for a time, that the Bouth might reflect, and
without reflection, put slavery away, but it
wu stranger atill, that the Sonth, with her
population cramped and industry destroyed,
should still oting to this ourse, as the poor in
ebriate clings to hUoup. In these troubles
about slavery, the border States had suffered
the mosti .
The people ef the free States wonld not set
tle there beeauie slavery wu there, and the
people from the slave States wonld not come
because they were so near the North. They

Adopted air the panaoeu of Democracy—all
the compromises of the Whigs, and all the
nostrums of the Republicans, bat all in vain.
We ere now in a wax with this institution.
The border States want to JbeStjteaoe and
wish to adopt measures to secure a permanent
peace. : There is an attempt now to raise np a
party on the basis ofxthe old agitation, bat
that will do no good and sneh an attempt
should be repudiated. If the objeet be to re
store the Unirfk by compromises before the
rebels ate beaten and lay down their arms, it
will be.of/ho kvail and worse than useless for
the rebels te! demand peaeeon the basis of
tbefr4edependtnee. We‘have war upon us
andir slavery be the cause the State of Mis
souri offers to sacrifice it on the altar of her
country. The bill wu postponed. ]
Mr. Trumbull, of 111., olured a resolution,
which was adopted, that the Vice President
appoint a member in the Board of Regents, of
the Smithsonian Institute, to fill the vacanoy
occasioned by the death of Senator Pearoe.
Mr. Wilson, of Hus., called up the bill to
inereue the clerical foroe in the Quartermas
ter General's Department. He offered to"
read a letter from Gen. Meigs relating to the
remarks made in the Senate concerning his
loyalty. The letter went on to say that If the
charges were made the authority aught to be
given. * *
Mr. TrumbnU objsoted to a further reading
of the letter.. He wu not disposed to listen
to a leotnre to the Senate.
Mr. : ShermAn, of-Onio, hoped it would-be
read.. He thought any man wu entitled to be
heard when charges were made against him.
. Mr. Tnunkalldenied the right of any
to insult the Senate. Ho wu perfectly wil
ling to listen to any respectful communica
tion; and give Gen. Meigs the benefit of an
investigation.!
-Mr. Wilson proposed to withdraw the let
teg. He! thongkt it might contain some party
expressions. |
Mr. Lane, jof Kansu, said he wanted to.
disouss the bUL He did not want General
Moigs to fill the Department with traitors.
He had suspicions of his loyalty.
Mr. Doolittle, of Wls., asked if the Senator
had suspicions, did he think It was the proper
way to proclaim them here. Should he not
moke his charges in the proper plaee and way.

steamer Princess Boyal, whl3h sailed thence
on the 12th Inst. for -Naisau, N. P., with :*
valuable cargo, principally consisting ofpow- ;
der and munitions of war. The vessel is
bnllt of iron, schooner rigged, and is propel--

ran into the stream, and for the! last two days :
the painter's, brush has been transferring herj
hnll, spars, funnel, Ao., from a black to; a lead
color. Her captain profestes'jto belong to*

short of one : cr two hands, he engaged two
young men at Halifax, to* whom he premised'
a handsome bounty if he should sueched ih
