Hitchoook u a witnoaa in the MoPowoll Court ia producing a ■cnaat-an. Ho hu already brought out two important lettere of the Preaidenfe and one of Gon. MoClolian’a, and to-day ho farther produced another letter from Gen.' MeQl.li.. , attempting to explain the force he wu leav ing for tho deftnoa of Wuhington, tho pro ceeding! of tht femons oounoil of General!, declaring what wu neoetaary for tha defence of Wuhington, and a atetament by himaolf and Adjutant General Thomu aa to whether thia dooiaion of tho Generali, and order by the Prealdent, wu oompliod-with by General MoClollan. Of thia laat paper tho following is the snbstftscft: First—The President's war order. No. 3, datod Uaroh Bth, requires en taking up mnj riaw base of operations that the city of Wash ington shall be left entirely secure. Second—A counsel of Oenerals, held at Fairfax Court House, March 13 th, took place after the enemy had retired from Manassas and destroyed the railroad In the rear. The couuoU decided unanimously u* take up the now base of operations from Fortress Mon-' roe, and three of the Generals, a majority, dsoided that the foroe necessary to be left should be sufficient to garrison the forts on the right bank of the Potomac, and to osoupy those on the left bank, with a covering forse of 36,000. It is, we think, the judgment of I the officers that some 30>000 men should be necessary to man these forts, which, with the number of sovorlng force, would make a total of 65,000 men. I Third—The President's directions of Maroh l3th, to Gen. McClellan, directs—first, to leave such a foroe at Manassas Junetioa as shall make It entirely certain that the'enemy shall not repossess it. Second, That Wash ington shall be left entirely secure. Third, That the remainder of the army move down the Potomac, or move in pursuit of the enemy. They then give McClellan's state ment ef the foroe left/ox tho defeneo of Wash ington, whloh amounts to 55,000 men, includ ing Banks’ army la the Shenandoah. They j •ay they will express no opinion as to whether I that army would be properly counted among I the troops for the defence of Washington or I not, and call attention to the faot that with- j out It but 26,000 in all were left for that pur pose. They than geosto-show that the force left in Washington, under Wadsworth, was badly armed and disciplined, and- that orders were subsequently sent hen withdrawing seme of the few good regiments that had at first been left ia it. They oonoinde: In view of the opinion expressed by coon* | •el of the 1 oommanders of army corps of the I force neoessary for the defense of the Capital, I though not numerically stated, and of .the I force represented by Gen. McClellan as lift ( for that purpose, wo are of tho opinion that tho requirements of tbo Prealdent la that oh, shall be entire), looare, not onl, in the opin ion of tha General-in-Chief but of those com- manders of arm, oorps that also has net been coupled with. L. Thomas, Adjutant General. B. A. Hitchcock, Msj. General Vole. D. S. A. Ibis paper soemes to hare been the result of the examination ordered by the President when he grit began to suspect that hfoOlellan had dlsobe,ed him In not leaving the Capital safe, and is dated Washington, April 2d.

A further batch of oaptnreA rebel corres pondence Is given to the public. Among the letters is one from George N.

Thls-eitimat* corre sponds with sUUments made months ago in 'these dispatches, and falls far short of tho ab oard estimate made in the Easterapapers. A* regards the compensation of assessors, the Commissioner suggests the payment of a reasonable amount for offioe rent,, safe, Ao., and a salary of $1,500 per year where tha re ceipts are $400,000 or less, and additional compensation of tho fffth of one per cent. on excess orer that amount. The total oom -pensation in no oase to exoeed-nrer $35,000. The total expenses of collection are at a rata little orer three and a half millions, or two and forty one-hundreths per esnf. The Com missioner estimates that the collection ex penses noror need exoeed three per cent. In the now loyal Sutes. An important sugges tion is made that wise eoonomy would limit the operations of law to the Sutes. The in | oome in the territories are barely corering tbe collection expenses.

Sumps of different kinds will be manufactured for the oonvenienoe of the public as before the passage of the supplementary aoi enabling those of all , kinds to be used.
