onur.ately the communications 011 which
our General relied for receiving his sup
of mun 1 • ions were interrupted by
-xtraordiuary Hoods, which so swelled

Slant but unaccepted lender ol battle On
more than one occasion the enemy has
siuce made demonstrations of a purpose
.0 advance, invariably followed by a pre
C'p.tateo retreat to entrenched lines on
ap; roach o: our forces.
The effective check thus offered to the
advance of the invaders ai all points was
such us to afford hope ot their early ex
pulsion from portions of the territory
previously occupied hy ihem, when the
country was painfully surprised by the
Intelligence that the officer in command

the entire garrison, including the com
mander.being still held prisoners by the
enemy, I am unable to Ruggesl any explan
ation of this disaster, which laid open
Last I ennessee and Southwestern Vir
gium to hostile operations, and broke the
line of communication 1 etween the seat
of Government and Middle Tennessee.
1 818 easy success of the enemy was fol
low d by an advance of Gen. Rosecrans
into Georgia, and our army evacuated
Chattanooga and availed itself of the op
portunity thus afforded of winning, on the
field of Chickamanga, one of the most
brilliant and decisive victories of the war.
lho signal defeat o< Gen. Rosecrans was
followed by his retreat into Chattanooga
where his imperilled position had the im’
mediate effect of relieving the pressure ol
the invasion at other points, forcing the
concentration for his relief oflarge bodies
ot troops withdrawn from the armies in
the Mississippi Valley and Northern Vir
ginia.
The combined forces thus accumulated
againa! us in Tennessee so greatly out
numbered our army as to encourage the
enemy to attack. After a long and severe
bcttie, in which great carnage was iuflict
ed on him. some ol our troops iuexplic
ably abandoned positions of great strength,
and by a disorderly retreat compelled ihe
commander to withdraw the forces else
where successfully, aud finally to retire
with his whole army to a position some
twenty or thirty miles to the rear, It is
belieyed that if the troops who yielded to
the assault had fought with the valor
which they had displayed on previous oc
casions, and which was manifested ia this
battle on the other parts of the line, the
enemy would have beeu repulsed with
very great slaughter, and cur country
would have escaped the misfortune, and
the army the mortifications, of the first
defeat that has resulted from misconduct
bv the troops. In the meantime the army
of General Burnside war driyen from all
its field ,positions in Eastern Tennessee,
and forced to retreat into its entrench
ments at Knoxville, where, for some weeks,
it was threatened with capture by the
forces under Gen. Lougstreet. No infor
mation has reached me of the final result
of tfie operations of onr commander
though intelligence has arrived of his
withdrawal lrom that place.
While, therefore, onr success in driving
the enemy from onr soil has not eqnalled
the expectations confidently entertained
at the commencement of the campaign,
his further progress has been checked.
If we are forced to regret losses in Ten
nessee and Arkansas, we are not without
ground for congratulation on success in
Louisiana and Texas. On the sea coast
he is exhausted by vain efforts to" capture
our ports, while on Lbe northern frontier
he has in torn felt the pressure, and dreads

Ihe British Government may deem this

I have stated that we are without ade
quate remedy, against the injustice under
which we suffer. There are but two
measures that seem applicable to the
present condition of our relations with
neutral powers. One is, to imitate the
wrong of which we complain, to retaliate
by the declaration of a paper blockade of
the coast of the United States, and to cap
tare all neutral vessels trading with their
ports that our erasers can intercept on
the high seas This measure I cannot
recommend It is true that in so doing
we shouldl but follow the precedents set

Exchange or Prisoner*.
I regret to inform yon that the enemy
have returned to the barbarous policy with
which they inaugurated the war, and that
the exchange of prisoners Ifca been lor
some time suspended. The correspon
deuce of the Coumnasiooerd'bf'jßxcii&ißr?'--
is snbmitted to jon by the' of '
War, and it has
lor the information of aSrfubW'sTifferinx
nseleßS imprisonment.
the authorities of the ■ DnMpd JSfates fcS
been consistently this sub
ject. An agreement for exchange in the
incipiency of the war had just been con
cluded when the fall of Fort Doneleon re
vered the previons state of things, and
gave them an excess of prisoners. The
agreement was immediately repudiated by
them, and so remained till the fortune of
war again placed us in possession of the
larger number. A new cartel was then
maae, and under it, for many months, we
restored to them many thousands of pris
oners in excess of those whom they held
for exchange, and encampments of surplus
paroled prisoners delivered up by ns were
established in the United Bffites, where
the men were able to receive the comforts
““, 8 1 r ?C ? 04 communication
with their homes and families.
In July last the fortunes of war again
favored the enemv, and they were enaoled
to exchange for duty the men preyioualy
delivered to them, against those captured
and P&roled at Vicksburg and Port Hud
eon. The prisoners taken at Gettysburg,
however, remained in the® bands, and
should have been at once returned to oar
lines on parole, to await exchange. In
stead of executing a duty imposed by the
plainest dictates of justice and good faith
pretexts were instantly sought for bolding
them in permanent captivity. General
orders rapidly succeeded each other from
the bureaus at Washington, placing new
constructions on an agreement which had
given me to no dispute while we retained *
the advantage in the number of prisoners.
With a disregard of honorable obligations
almost unexampled, the enemy did doi
hesitate, in addition to retaining the pris
oners captured by them, to declare null
(the paroles given by the prisoners cap
tured jjy ns in the name series of engage
ments, and liberated on condition of not
egain serving until, exchanged, They have
since openly insisted on treating the pa
