To the Editors of the Xational Intelligencer:
I regret to find myself in a controversy
with tbe venerable ex-President Buchanan.
llecently (October 21) you.puoiiMieu
my official report to President Lincoln dated
March 30, 1801, giving a summary ot my
then recent connection witn our pnu.a.
southern forts, which, I am-sorry to per

.Pt'ik bf remembered that the ne?
Presidcul had a right to demand of me
the ipimediate commander of the army
how it had happend that the incipient
rebels had been allowed to seize several vi
those forts, and Iroia ttie oaa cuaumuu
others were likely to guin possession oi
them also. Primarily the blame rested
exclusively on me. Hence, to viudicate
my sworn allegiance to the Union and
professional conduct, the report was sub
mitted to President Lincoln at sa early uuy,
(in his admiuistratiou). and recently to the
world. . , ,
Toth:it short paper cx-L resident Ia-
chanan publishes a reply of double the
length in the Utdlhjencer of the 1st instant.
Mvrcjoiuder, from necessity, if not taste,
will he short, for I hold the pen in a rheu
matic hand, and am without uid-de-camp
or amanuensis, and without .a printed
document aud my own official papers.
Unable, in my present condi ion, to make
an anaivsis of the ex-President's long reply
I avai f myself of a substitute furnished by
accidental visitor, who has kindly
marked the few points which he thinks
may require some slight notice at my

ed sufficiently the Southern forts tamed
against anticipated treason aud rebellion,
accord id to my many recommendations.

The same remarks apply to the gallant
Lieutenant Slemmer, with his handful cl
brave mm nt Fort Pickens. With what
contempt might he not have looked upon

virvin"-" masses of from two thousand to

six thousand men, 11 rorc a ich.e huka 1
twin Fort M'ltae had had between them
only two hundred men !
I have thus shown that small garrisons
would at first have sufficed for the other
twin, Forts Jackson and St. Philip, also.
My obiect was to save to the Union, by
any means at hnnd, all those works, until
Congress co-aid have time to auvnuu.u a
call for volunteers a call which the Pres
ident, fur such purpose, might no doubt
have made, without any special legislation,
with the full approbation of every loyal
man in the Union.

Now, although it is true that, witn or
nilu.nt the ex President's approbation,
the Secretary of War had nearly denuded
our whole eastern seaboard of troops in
order to augment our forces in dcxas auu
Utah, I nevertheless pointed out, at several
of the above dates, the six hundred

of New York and at Carlisle iiarracks.

Philip below New Orleans; r.u equal
number to Fort Morgan, below Mobile; a
reinforcement of one hundred men to Fort
Pickens, Pensacola Harbor, and a garrison
of the like number to the twiu fort McUac;
a garrison of one hundred men to Fort
JtdrVrson, Tortugas Island, and the same
to Fort Pulaski below Savaunah, which,
like Forts Jackson, St. Philip, Morgan
and Mcllac,had not at that time a soldier
leaving about two hundred men for the
twin forts, Moultrie aud Sumter, Charles

companies, making less than ninety men.

AV.v..,.?. On several oceasious, General
M'Clelian has telegraphed me that his
.,vmy was deficient in certain supplies. All
fh.rt telcrams were immediately referred
to the heads of bureaus, with orders to
ronort. It was ascertained that in every
irsiance the requisitions have been imme
diately filled, except where tho Quarter
ureter General had been obliged to send
fr .m Philadelphia certain articles cf tents,
clothing, tt-j., not having a full supply
here.
There has not been, so far as 1 cou.d
ascertain, auv neglect or delay, m ar.y. de-
partmeut or onreau, in issu.n
Supplies asked for by General M'Cleilan,
ur'uy the officers of his staff. .
K lays have occasionally occurred in
forwarding supplies by railroad on account
..f the crowded condi'ion of tho railroad
depots, or of a want of a sube.ent mimoer
.f cars; but, whenever notified of thi.
fact, agents h:ve been sent out to remne
the. difficulty under the excellent super
intendence of General Uaupt. L think
those delays have been less lreqneut and
of shorter duration than is usually the
case with freight trains. An army of the
size of that under General M'Clelian wili
frequently be for some days without the
supplies it has asked Kr, ou account or a
negiect in making timely requisitions for
them, aud unavoidable delays in lorwam
ing them and distributing them to the
different brigades and regiments. :
From all the information I can ootain,
am of the opinion that the requisitions
from that army have been filled more
prc.mr.tly, and that the men, as a general
rulehare been better snppli 1, than in
n-r of our armies operating in the
West. The hitter have operated at much
,.r,v,for distances from the sources of sup
plies, and have had iar ls facilities for
transportation. In fine, I believe toat no
en sc-i'-iiiig iiic unuj ti
could procure. ' "
On the ISth of October Gc:u M'Clelhin
stated in regard to General Meigs' report
that ha had filled every . requisition for
shoes and clothit-g: '-General 31eigs may
have ordered' these articles to be forward
ed, but they might as well remain in New
York or Philadelphia, so far as my army
is concerned." 1 immediately called Gen.
Meigs' attention to this apparent neglect
of his department.
On the !," th of October, he reported
as the result of h's investigation, that
4,890 pairs' of - boots and shoes had baeu
received by the Q lartermastcr of M'Clel
lau's army at Harper's Ferry, Frederick
and Hagerstov.-n. Twenty thousand pairs
were at Harper's Ferry Depot on the 21st, ,
and that ten thou-. aud more were on thoir i
cense as rletail Liquor Dealer?; iu additioii
to the lWcne for hating House. . . ,
A lletail Dealer, who occasionally sella
in original packages to consumers, is not
thereby subject to take a liceuse as a
whedesaie dealer ; nut u ne seu iu unjiiiui
packages to thoc who buy to sell again,
ho must take a liccnso as a : wholesale
dealer. . '
A lit toil Liquor Dealer, having taken
out a license as such, may sell cigars or
other articles in . amount not exceeding
81,000 per annum, without being required
to take out an additional license as retail
dealer.. ,
Any person, holding a license, who
change-? his place of business, must tako
out a r.e-w license. A license cannot be
for less than a" year. Those, therefore;
who have been in business since SeptenV
bor lid, and quit the business before the
expirajion of the year, are liable to pay
for a license for a whole year.
The owner or lessee of coal lands must
have a' dealer's license in order to be au
thorized to sell the products. Producers
o: coal are nor requires io tuwc a umuu
lecturer's license. ,(
Owners or lessees of coal lands, who
tak3 out the coal solely for their own use,
as manufacturers, must pay the tax, as tho
coal is used for "consumption."
Coal 'dealers whoso sales arc less than
8000 per annum are liable to the duty of
cents per ton ; for, not beipg manufac
turers, the provisions of Section Seventy
three are inapplicable. -
Wagoners who purchase coal by tho
load, from the dealers to sell to customers,
are to be rated as peddlers.
Thirty-three and one third bushels of
bituminous coal may be regarded as equal
to a ton. .. 4
Twenty-two thousand two hundred arid
forty constitute a ton cf iron, &c., in all
cases where tho contrary is not tpecified
wnv, and fifteen thousand more hau been
ord.T.d.
C'-lonf'i Tngalls, ai l-de-cimp and chief
of st.-flf to Ganerai M'Clelian, telegraphed
as follows: "The suffering for want of
d' thing is e:;g:
