FURTHER PARTIOULARB. The Boston papers of the 11th instant publish the following despatches : WASHINGTON, MAY 10. The army of the Potomac bee bad a portion et a day to recuperate. General Burnside on Monday bagels the attack as the left with pest fury, and with an enooursgiog dome of moms& de had a fight the day before in which, to use his own words, he " whipped old Loaptreet." Our army could not be in a more cheerful condition. All the men are reggaes of sumer, and they count the days when they shall eater in triumph the rebel capital. General Lee lately issued an order in relation to supplies, in which he said communication with Richmond was cut off, end it was impossible to furnish the men with stores. General Rill's corps had no rations issued for three days. General Lee enjoined upon his men the necessity of cap turing supplies from the Yankees. Up to this moment they have failed to capture a single waggon. The roads are in excellent travelling order, but very dusty. All the battles thus far have been a series of attacks and repulses. Muskets were almost entirely used, the swampy natured the ground rendering artillery impracticable. Les very absurdly claims a victory when be withdraws frottillins front, and marches towards Richmond. Genera Tubas division of cavalry whipped the rebel amity near this plain, and drove them from Spotteylyania Court-house, but beteg reinforced with infantry they drove our av►lry a short distance. The /f-aryland beipds, 4th division, 4th corps, coming to their support, the fighting was exceedingly Berea General Tsrbell and General Robin soe were both wounded, end on their way to Washington. General Sedgivick was shot through the heed on Sunday morning while superintending the mounting of some heavy gusts in an angle the men had just prepared. There was no skirmishing at the time, but an occasiobal sharp shooter sent a bullet in that direction, which caused the men Ybo on the alert to dodge them. General Sedgwick was standing near them and smiling at their nervousness when a ball struck him in the forehead. The blood oozed from his noetrds and he fell back dud into the arms of one of his usistent-adjotant-general• In Fredericksburg to-day there were 12,000 of our wounded, who have been crowding into the town since Sunday morning. When the first party of 300 maimed and bleeding soldiers came into the city, Mayor Slaughter and Mr. Mayer, a prominent citizen, rallied a few guardian and marched them into the rebel lines u prisoaen of war. Mayor Slaughter and his friends are now in the guardhouse of Fredericksburg. Pontoons have been laid across the Rappahannock below Fredericksburg, over which there will be oommu nication to Amnia Creek, where our transports lie, a die tame of about eight miles from Fredericksburg. Guerillas abound throughout the country in our rear.

He said that the time would come, perhaps,wheo be should require two or three months' ralaxstaon, but certainly not this year.

The Lad Robert Cecil, M.Y. Ns" 14. 1864. . My dear Mr. Baring.—l beg to acknowledge your letter, which I received this evening, asking me to what proclama tion I referred whoa I mid that the mealtime of war or• CL.edby Maws. Bating and Co. to the Federal Status bad emoveyod Ia violation of her Majesty's proclamation of neutrality. Iu reply, I beg to say that the proclaniatioe of which I spoke is that issued May Li, 1ti61., and that, the Femme* iu it to which I referred were the following : " We do hereby strictly charge aed command all our lov ing subjects to observe a orbit neutrality is Led daring the aforesaid hostilities, sad to abstain from violating or coo. twaveaing either the laws and statutes of the realm in this behalf, or the laws of nations I. relation thereto, as they will answer to the contrary at their peril. And we do hereby further want all oar loving subjects, and all persons whatsoever entitled to oar protection, that it any of them shall presume, in contempt of this our royal proclamation and of our hi gh displeasure, to do any acts in derogation of their duty as subjects of a neutral sovereign in the said contest, or in viontioa or coutraveotion of the law of nations in that behalf, as for example and more espe cially. . . . by carrying onions, soldiers, despatches, arms, military stores, es matenals, or an aruole or articles considered and deemed to be coa of war, &ocotillos to the laws or modem usage of nations, for the use or sin. vice of either of the said contending parties, all perms eo offending will incur and be liable to the several penalties and penal consequences by the said statute or by the law of nations in that behalf imposed or &motioned.

In the same connection I may also quote the statement made by Mr. Laird is your hearing on the 27th March, 1863, and not contradicted by you '•I have referred to the Lulls of entry in the custom hones of London and Liverpool, and I had that there have been vast shipments of implements of war to the Northern Stens. I bad among those who base been engaged in these transactions the celebrated house of Baring and Co." I presume that the word '• restyles" in the proclamation includes those who employ others to carry, or abet others in carrying. In strictness it seems to me that the letter of the proclamation prohibits all transactions having for their object to supply contraband of war to either belligerent. But I think it is generally agreed that, as a rule of particle, its meaning must be niterpreted by rinse. All I claim is that the interpretation stall be impartial, and that the proskamatica shall aot be held to prohibit the export of one kind of contraband of war, via , alum to one belligerent, while it is held to permit the export of another kind, via., arms, to the other belligerent Of Bonne las speaking exclusively of the proclamation of neutrality, rod am not referring to any ships which may be proved to have violated the special enactments of the Foreign Enlistment Act. in the amuse of your note you intimate that I tint gave "a pommel character to a discuesion of great national queetions." I cannot plead guilty to the charge. I think you must have forgotten that you twice applied the word •• fraudulently" to the proceedings of the Liverpool firm that sent out the Georgia—a firm of the highest ream cta bility, name is well known, and is indeed mentioned in the papers that have been presented to parliament. The word conveys a severe imputation, probably, is reforeens to the conduct of a British merchaat the very severest you could have made. I cannot admit that it was I who " gave • personal , dia meter to the diarmamicia of a great national questios. The name of she house of Baring Rai only introduced is order to 'bow how unfair and one-sided were the charges which were made in the course of the debate against those who sent out the Georgia and other ships, which afterwards became ships of war. It was said that they acted in (mad of our neutrality, and that they were stirring up feelinpof rancour between two friay nations. Thaw who were accused were not th ere to defend theineelves, and it did seem to me only fair to show bow little they were really open to caner, by notating to proceedings equally in violation of the letter of the Queen's proclamation, and equally irri. tiding in their effect to the feelings of a friendly nation, on the pert of one of the first mercantile houses is the world, one to whose authority no Federal advocate would be likely to demur. _ _ I learn for the first time from your note that you were not present in the house when I spoke. It never occurred to me that you were likely to leave before the diecnonen you bad raised was finished, and the seat you usually occupy is so exactly behind mine, that I could notes' that you were away when I was speaking.—Believe in*, yours very faithfully, (Signed) ROBERT Ct. CECIL P.S. if you should deeirs any further explanation of any thing I bays said, my direction for the next week will be, " Poste llesiente, Bruxelles." Bishopsgato-street, May 18, 1864. My dear Lord,—l found on my return to town yesterday your letter of 11th islet. Before you amused that my firm had been mainly instrumental in oonveyiag assistant* to the Federal*, in violation of her Majesty's proclamation of Dep. Malay, it would have been well that you should have acquainted yourself with the pert which my Inn really has taken in theme matters. lam not at all prepared to that those who have bees instrumental in forwardiag saunitious of war either to the Federal or Coefedeette States have thereby violated her Majesty's proclamation. On the contrary, it was potations that zilch shinning' were tallies place; and not only was no intimation given cm the part of her Majesty's government that the par ties engaged in them were in any way infring ing the law. international or otherwise, but on the contrary, the right of neutrals to sell to both or either of the belligerents has been folly recognized. I am, therefore, justified in assuming that the parties ere not open to that imputation ; but be that as it may, my firm has not, in fact, been so engaged. In theme matters we have acted merely as backers representing large banking establialimests in de Vetted States, which opened credits with my firm le favour of parties to whom erden ware gives. bat see through us, for the purchase and traeseeimion of warlike stores for the use of the Federal government. We took so pert in giving these orders. or is the execution of thew All that we had to do was, when the shipping documents were farsithed to us, to give effect to the credit lodged is favour of the parties furnishisg those supplies, and to see that they were properly forwarded to their destination. leanoot, therefore, admit that in the conduct of these promediop we have infringed either the letter or the sprit of her Majesty's proclamation. With referecee to my having characterised the proceed ings of the parties charged with equipping vessels of war for the use of the Confederate government as fraudulent, I did not thereby intend to stigmatise as fraudulent the men fact of such equipment, illegal as such equipment undoubtedly would be ; but my remark had reference to the manner in which these proceedings were canted out. As I bare already observed, it was perfectly well ktowu that warlike atone were ordered in this country for the use of the Federal sa d Confederate governments; but is the case of the vessels which are supposed to have been equipped for the use of the Confederate iStates, every species of concealment has been resorted to in order to cover the real intentions of the parties. and it was in this view 'object th-• -lluded of the subject that I allt. to these traneactiou as being ANGLING IN TRX Teams& —A few days since aS. fraudulent.

The 03110111iS, in opening the proceedings, stated that the meeting had been called at the request of the Universal League, for the purpose of ocusiduring the best course to be taken with reference to the recent police interfereece with the loelpreooreieed rights of the public to bold meetiegs in the was. If. alluded, of =NO, to the resent police out rage at Primrose-bill, with which they were all acquainted. It was highly desirable that the legal rights of the peo ple should be ascertained and placed byroad all doubt. if it were found that the action of the polio, upon that ocessioa was illegal, it would be their duty to determine upon such a °nurse of action as would prevent any future Interference by them with the holding of peaceable sad well-conducted meetings in the public parks. Mr. Cox said that Mr. Bale., the benister who acted se oh of tbe Primrose-hill Garibaldi mestin'g, entertained a strong opinion that the peopla_had a legal right to use the perks for the purpose of chicoesiag social and political topics and the meeting would be glad to hear a statement of hie views. Mr. Beats entered at some length into the history of the questioo , and con teaded that the interference of the polies with the Pninroseeloll meeting was an extraordloary stretch of power. He considered that it was perfectly legal and aos statutiorial to hold public nieetirge in the perks, and the right could only be destroyed by • solemn set of the legisla ture. It had bees admitted by Sir G. Grey that in the recent instance at Prinuoselull the polies Lad exceeded their duty and mistaken their power, inasmuch as their interference was not authorised either by the assistant cow mottoes: or Sir lt. Mayne himself. The police had no power whatever without the authority of the head of the Whoa He bad endeavoured to learn from Kr. Cowper, the Chief Cusimissioser of Works, on what grounds the government assumed the power of preveating meet ings being held in the parks, but he bad failed to obain from his the slightest ground. while on the other hood he (Mr. Beals.) rested his claim to the right of the people on • clear legal ground. There had been seta of parliament resti 'cling the right, therefore the right itself was admitted. Nothing Is the police acts authorised the ardor of Sir It. Nellie two years ago ' suppose iug the right of holding meetings in one of the public parks on a Sunday. That order was wholly unjustifiable and illegal. Interference with the right of the people to hold meetings in the parks was not justified on the ground of any private right no the part of the crown, and such • position was untenable. The parks had bees for • long period dedicated for the public sod their sae, and that privilege could oot now be recalled. They had long ceased to be private property of the crown, and to prevent their being used for the purpose of politic meetitige, ea well am fur recreation and aintoenieut, was, in his opinion, illegal. Mr. Ammer asked Mr. Beam if be had looked carefully into the eras bearing ou the question! Mr. Beaus replied in the affirmative. . . The efiAllU1111; reminded the meeting that fora long time the parks had bees placed at the disponi of the militia. and upwards of 100,11001. a year was voted by parliament for their maintenance. If anything proved a public right it was peeved is this mar by the fact that the money ob tained from the sale of the clipping of trawl and the cuttings of grass in the parks was paid into the public exchequer. Mr. Witshher said that at the suggestion of Mr. Beale' he remedy had a esavenation with Sir George Grey for the purpose of bear* his views on the question, and ha thought the right hon. gentleman was disposed to a compronum. lie told Kr George Grey that It was supposed the govern , meet would sot be dudeeheed to set apart a eartein portion of the parks for the purposes of public meetings, on the wedens.anding that they would be confined to that area. Sir G. Gay said dirt the governmeet ooald not enter into any such arrasgerneols or fllColllille such a right ; that with respect to Pnrorow•hill it was not strictly a park, but that he should think—though he had no right to speak ow the matter—the Commemorator of Woods aid Forests might be disposed to allow meetings to be held there on certain days. Sir Gimp Grey added that the parks ware sot to be used by the pablie fur any other pur pose thee recreation, it being totally inconsistent with the comfort and convenience of those who used them for either of those purposes that they should be made the arena of public amemblages for dismission of political or social guar tans. _ _ The CHAnalas remarked, with reference to the report of Mr. Whalley's taterview with Sr George Grey, that he hoped they would sot enter into any oomproeurs with the government. if the right of bolding public meetings in the parks meted, them they meet have it, and sue case it as occasion regiurad. Mr. Ararow said that it was highly necessary to examine the matter farther. There were two descriptions of parks them which were knows se the Queen's parks, which em braced Hyde. park and St. James's, which were, of course, under the authority of the crown, bud the munition of which for the employees' of the people bad always been in the hands of the guesses's', mid with respst to those parks they could not be treated 41 crown lands fur the com mon colones:it of the people, became if so any person who was wiliest a bed ooeM go and meet • right to sleep in Hyde-perk. The crown and government always exercised their power of appropriating sorties of those parks to public garde's, ha, but there wee another description of puke quite different, which were termed par liamentary parks, which were regulated by the exprees weeds of the sot He thought it would be found that there wereeertain powers giving to the Com mimeo/we of Works authority to regulate such parks. One thing was perfectly clear, and that was that in the first Seems their legal right of beldieg public meetings should be secortained. Mr. Locum quite agreed that the legal question must be settled, but they really had not the mom of ascertaining their rights at present, bemuse they had eat the a authorities to consuls, and neither Mr. Corpor= Geroge Grey would give them any assistance is the matter. The ONALIIIIAN observed that in considetution of the civil lit being fixed at a ordain amount the crown lands were given up to the public, and if there was no exception with regard to the parks, it was clear that they also must be public property. ter. Cox was of opinion that • committee of half a dozen gentlemen should be appointed to investigate the legal question and report thereon, and then if it were found that the people had no legal right to meet is the pezka an agita tion most take place, because the vaunted right of publics meeting was a were sham if there were no place where large opeoreir nommblages weld be held. Mr. BUM% said that he had looked into the question:oozy minutely aad he was satisfied that no legal right existed to prevent the working alarm from holding meetings in the Parma Mr. ATITON mid it was quite s misapprehension to sup pate, se Mr. Bodes evideutly did, that the puke ware ddi sated to the public. Mr. P. Gamima said le recollected w►ss the royal parks were closed altogether. Indeed, it was only is the tune of William IV. He was a across advocate for the rights of the people, but he thought the perks ought to be ender some regulations if it were only for the safety of the public itself. Some further conversation followed, Mr. H. Lewis, Mr. (bomae. Mr. Rogers, Mr. E. Taylor, Mr. Mates, Hr. Eh, Mr. A. 11. Richards, Mr. Stacey, and other gentlemen taking part in tte dis cussion. Ultimately it was resolved, on the motion of Mr Cox, " That a committee be appointed to inquire into and ascertain the legal rights of the people to the use of the perks in Laudon aed to the right of holding public meetiegs therein.'
