The following IS copy kept by me of the one written to the President upon tha, ocoa- sion. which, if you think proper, you are at liberty to publish. Also, the letter of Gov.

 We mast confess that, with much reluctance, we have assumed the responsibility of conducting the Banner. We have long ago discovered that the da- ties of an editor, under any circumstances, did not afford bed of roses and that the paper constituted
 < organ ef the pa,iy. required yigor of intellect, and anwearying attention. Beside this we shrank from the task of wairing against treachery and de- eeit, ofexposing corrupt men and base motives. AL though we never could stand silently by and witness unpriacipi d arrogance stalk into the democratic ranks, eibowing fIom its way. worth and honesty; sliil t is rcsolting to be forced to point ou, man, and direct the finger of public indignation to his career ofdishonesty and faithlessness. Such task however is before us, and. knowing the man as we do, 1t becomes matter less of concern than abso Iats disgust very repecfal intercourse of about ten ysas has suiiced to aequaint us fully with his character. and proposal he once nude l@hich cane fo our kpowirdge) to dape and deiraud friend convinced us of the truth of the charges of every grade of guilt so openly and repeatedly made skaiast him. Though this small specuiaton was so dishoacEable, and rejected with seorn. he was mol, denounced as in many ias.asees. What good could prossed froN such course when hi. character was ksckening under the cupses of hundred others, snd every street rang out with tales of his izfsmy. That he was properly appreciated at that 6me, all who knew him as well as we a.d, can tes. tig for he was even careless Of his reputation, til the prospect of political advancement brought upon him the additional sin of well guarded hypocrisy.

 September 23, iss5. SIR have the graii6eatica ,o report that the Bishops Palace was gssi6nty carried yesterday by the troops of the 2d division. In the course of inc night the batteries below the town were, with one exception abandoned by the enemy, and thss morn ing were occupied by our troops. To-day the Sd infantry with the eid artillery of the lst division, the Mississippi and TenneSsee regiments, and the 2d regiment of Texas rilemen, (dismuunted.) haze been warmly engaged with the enemy in the town, and have driven tim with considerable loss 10 the plaza and it's vicinity, which is yet strongly oecu- pied A portion of the 2d division has also advan. ced into the town on the right, and holds position there. Tae enemy still maintains himself In the plaza and citadel, and seems determined to make a stubborn resistance.
 am particularly grsi6cd to rerori that our sue eesses ol yesterday and to-day, though disastrous to the enemy, have been achieved without material loss.
 cannot speak in too high terms of the galiantry and perseverance of our troops throughout the ar- duous operation ol the last ihres days
