The Presi dent;: ; in,a recent conversation with a Republican said, that an arnriatice once arranged on from a Government to rebels has never resulted otherwise than m a final acknowledgement of inde pendence to rebels, as the independence of Texas was eventually acknowledged by Mexico. So an armistice granted to thp rebels would be an. inducement at some future time to acknowledge their independence. In regard to the draft, he stated that in the first nine days after the cfill was made, the average number ef recruits received throughout the whole country was about two hundred per day. In the ensuing nine days the number increased to three hundred, while the number ' during the fifty days is 50,000, and the number steadily increasing. W;e must, he said, do what we can to encourage this. We shall probably let the draft dally along, enforcing it in a few local ities where they do not show sufficient energy in recruiting, but we are doing We can to encourage those localities that get recruits with celerity. It had been decided to rescind the or der prohibiting the exportation of arms and the necessary orders would be is sued in a few days. Mr. Lincoln said he and Secretary Fessenden had tad numerous discussions as to permit and encourage trade in cotton, and he thought,this was what they would de lude upon, viz: Perfectly free trade in cotton by individuals who pay for it in greenbacks, the army to be directed to protect and encourage the trade so far as conducted within our lines, the only condition being that all cotton should be shipped to or through New York there to be inspected and pay taxes on inter nal revenue 3,220,000 ... • .100,000 . 000,000 .30,012,400 .. 3,443,000 . 1,362,000 ■ 1,007,900 997,000 > 300,000 1,845,000 100,000 360,000 200,000 1,709,000 60,000 201,000 600.000 300,000 7,637,000 00 *36498,000 00 17,063,100 00 2.610,000 00 Gunboats Captured on White Biv er. «ri < w lßo, >H ep i tem « er A re P° r * reach ed Memphis last Sunday night that the gunboats Hastings andNaumkeag were captured below Clarendon, on White rn-er and Captain Rogers, of the latter.

Hjs Great Disaster at Atlanta. Removal of Hood Demanded. on the Situation. The Confederacy Looks Gloomy New September .B.—Tho Rich mond JSzaminer, of the sth. comment ing on Hood’s official dispatches, an nouncing his disaster ..says: How it was that after attacking the enemy With two corps, JSneaboro only was left to resist the assault of the enemy, can only be accounted for by> supposing after our, attack failed, to dislodge the enemy, Hood withdrew one of them at Atlanta, denying Hardee to bear the bulnt alone. This he would hardly hive done, had he not miscalculated ■he enemy’s designs. He must have believed the main body of Sherman’s anny to have been in front of Atlanta, when, in fact, it was on Flat river, near Jonesboro, 20 odd miles south of that. Although (Atlanta is lost, the army is not, and sajys the loss of the former is nothing, while the loss of the latter would have been without remedy. In another article the Examiner con demns the jremoval of Johnston, saying he was superseded by Hood, a com mander of Division, notoriously inca pable of managing anything large* than a division. ; The result is a disaster at Atlanta, in the very nick of time when such a victory alone could save the party of Lincoln from irretrievable ruin After referring to th# absurdity of tut ting up and pulling down" a commander in the field, according.tp the crude views or push fancies of a functionary in Rich mond, the same paper continues: Now is it not hard, is it not cruelly hard that the straggle :of eight millions who sac rifice their money and their lives, who groans in the excess,, yho struck every muscle till the blodd starts, should come to naught, should end in the min of us all. That the predictions and an tipathies, the pitiful, personal feelings of a single man may be indulged. Again, it says the moral effect of the loss of Atlanta, though it may be temporary will be great. It will render incalcul able assistance to the party of Lincoln, and obscure the prospects of peace, late so bright. It may enable them to exe cute tha, draft. It will' 'diffuse gloom over the South. The depression may be relieved, if the administration has a spark of zeaVsense, or unselfish patriot ■am. The re-instalment of-Johnston, or thfrappointinenLofßeauregaTd would at once restoce the confidence of the country and army. The Examiner says late Bristol papers state that it i? all a lie about Wheeler destroying the great bridge over the Tennessee at London. The same paper- says he seems studi ously to avoid the enemy’s bridges and lines of communication, and devotes himself to running about the ' country picking up small lots of prisoners. The . closes an article on the situation as follows: The only practical moral we can draw from all this, is that the Confederal!) States never had more urgent flped of an effective army and diligent conscription and vigilant lead ers, and all the men to the front than they have at this hour. FROM NEW YORK. Gen.

It is unnecessary for me Co say to you that this nomination comes tome unsought, lam happy to know <that when the nomination was made, the •record of my public life was kept in vibw. The effect of long and varied service in the army, during war andi pace, has been to strengthen and; ipikef indelible in my mind and ; *The| love and reveratice for the Union, CUn atitution, Laws and Flag of our country was impressed upon me in early youtln these feelings have thus-far guided'" the course of my life, aud must idoso until its end. The exhihWe of more than one Government oVer the re gion once owned by onr flag, is incom patible*with the peace, the power, and the happiness of the people. The pres ervation of our Union was the solo avowed object for which the war was commenced. It would have been con dncted for that object only, and in ac cordance with those principles which I took occasion to declare when in active service. Thus conducted, the work of reconciliation would have been easy and we might have reaped the benefits of our many victories on land and sea. Tbe Union was originally formed by tbe exercise of a spirit of conciliation and compromise. To restore and preserve it, the same spirit must prevail, in our | councils and in the hearts of the 1 people. [ The re establishment of the Union in all its integrity, is, and most be the indis pensable condition in dny settlement. So f-oon as it Is clear, or even’probable that onr present already lor peace upon the basis of the Unitm we should exhaust all the resources of statesmanship practiced by civilized na lions, and tanght by the traditions-fef the [ American people, consistent with itbe honor and interests of the country to Becure soch peace, re-establish the Union ahd guarantees for the future the Con stitutional rights of every State in the Union, and the one condition of.peace. We ask no more. Let me add wbat I doubt not was, aUhopglt-, uneiflrfes ••d, the sentiment of the Conven tion, as it is of the people they represent, .that when no , one, State is willing V-o return to the Unio D it should be received at once, with a full guarantee of all its-constitutional rights; if a frank, earnest and persistent effolt to obtain these objects should fail there sponsibility for ulterior consequences wHI fail upon those wbo rbm'ain in against the Uuion. But the Union -must be preserved at all hazards/ I could,not look on the face of my gallant comrades of the Army and Na vy who have Sur vived so many bloody battles, and tell them their labors and the sacrifice of so many of our slain and wounded breth ren bad been in vain, that we bad aban doned that Union for which we have so often perilled our lives. A vast ma jonty of our people, whether in the army and navy, or at home would as I would hail with unbounded joy the permanent restoration of peace on the basis of the Union under the Constitu tion, without the effusion of.another drop of blood. But no peace can be permanent without Union. As to the other subjects presented in the resolu tions of the Convention, I need only say I that I should only seek in the Constitu-1 tion of the .United States and the-Lawe framed In accordance therewith, the rule of my duty,- and" tlm limitations'of executive power, endeavor to restore economy in public expenditure,'re establish the supremacy of law, and by the operation, of a more vigorous nation ality, resume our commanding position among the nations of the earth, the con ditionofour finances, the dej reciatihg of the paper money, . and. the burdens thereby imposed upon labbr and capital, and how the necessity of la return to a state of a sound system, while the right and the binding authority 01 law over President, army and peoptehre subjects of not; less vital', important in war than in peace, believing that the views here expressed are those of the Convention and the people you repre sent I accept tjm nomination,. I realize the weight of the responsibillty tb .tih borne should the people ratlft- yemr choice. Concious of my own waaknw I can onlfcseek fervently the guidance <>f the Ruler of the universe, and .relying j on His all powerful aid restore Union and peace to i*-' suffering people, and to establish'.andioardithSr; liberties and rights.
