Dear Sir: | thank you for your note Of
the 10th ultimo, and the paper enclosed
II the article to which you called my atten
ton merely concerned myself, | should
leave it to do its office, without saying a
word to lessen or impair its force bu, as
the design is to injure Mr.. Fremont by rep
resenting me as preiering charges against
him, and becoming his prosecutor, merely to
obtain sham acquittal, think proper to say.
land TO give you leave to publish ny that
| have preferred no charges against Mr.,
Fremont, and have not become his prosecu-
tor, but that did send 10 The war office the
charges made against him by others, and
the names OF the supposed writer's as wit
nesses to prove what they wrote, at the
same time expressing my disbelief OF their
truth, and asking a court martial. An ar.
,icIe from the Missouri Republican was one
Of those 80 sent. Nothing was added to
them, or taken from them. The charges
were sent exactly as published, and were
the charges OF the publishers and ,oriters, lot
mine, and it is they who are to be summon
ed to prove them. They (he writers and
publishers) will be summoned, and all other
witnesses that they want summoned, and
all the charges tried which they have pre-
ferred, or shall prefer. or which any other
person shall prefer. The trial which | have
asked for is intended to be real one, and
not "jarce;" or "White,cashing," as the
editor Of the Republican supposes 1t shall
cover every thing imputed, or TO be imput.
ed, against COL Fremont and his accusers
shall all be witnesses. If, under these cir
cumstapces. il becomes "fdrce and q

own.

strongest motives OF bencVo!euce, feels desrOus to

had been no arrival from Vera Cruz--a cir
cumstance in itself rather inauspicious to
an early peace, as it is officially known
that vessel was kept waiting at Vera
Cruz TO carry the news without moments
delay. The last interview with the Mexi.
can commissioners was to have taken place
on the 3oth August, and if then definitely
arranged, there was more than ample time
to have despatched courier from Mexico
with the news. No news is bad news
