WAsHIYGroS, October I, 1866


With a good field glass 10 your hand, from

quently described the splendid basin in which
Washington is situated-the rampant Of bills
that seem TO surround it, the river pursuing
its tranquil course, the luxuriant foliage in
summer aud the palatial edifces which adorn
the city itself, aud crown the adjacent emf,
ueuces. 10 peaceful times there could be 20
more inspiring view; but now, "when tren.
chant war channels our fields, and bruises
our t1Owrets with the armed hoofs Of hostile
paces," new and an ezcitiDg interest is
added to the scene. October is Just begin.
ming 10 hang her splendid robes upon the
neghboring heights, and soon the gaudy
tresses 10 which she adorns the dying season
will outdazzle the gny uniforms and the bright
colors OF the two hundred regiments that
cluster hereaway iU fort and 10 camp.
But that which will most attract your
attention is the marvellous change that has
been wrought in this landscape since the
genius OF General Mcclellan took possession
! Of our military department. You will see
that whole acres of trees have been levelled
and cleared by the vigorous axe of the pio
neerS, so Bs TO give broad, uninterrupted
swe-p- to the guns that have been mounted
np'n nnmhers OF newly erected Notifications
! Away of in the distance dense column OF
smoke is rising. giving proof that our soldiers
are engaged IN destroying the thick brush and
tang led underground. MnnsoG's Ilill looks
like military hive, swarming with busy
troops, while, IN the remoter distance, long
and numbering trains ore carrying forward
provisions, ammunition. and arms. Every
scene ia M assurance OF effective preparation
Ii you change your position, and look 10 the
Maryland side, you will see enough tC
convince you that the same unsleeping intel
leet that is pushing our Notifications aud oul
fighting men forward, evep-into the bowels O
Virginia, is actively at work there.
But you will ask, why is not something
done ? Why does not General McCellaI
advance I might reply by asking why doe,
not the enemy attack 1t is not for bin tt
advance, especially in view of the fact that hs
can afford to stand where be is, or so 10 move
as to press his adversary hack. so that wber
the wager OF battle is offered by the latter il
may be accepted with due courtesy anC

A theory has lately been started, TO the effect
that the enemy is by no means so anxious for

he is looking now to Missouri and Kentucky, and
may suddenly turn his back upon Mcclellan and
throw into these two states the troops he has

When every body has bis own notion Of the
war, and his own idea how it ought to be man

scanned by thousands of sensitive men and wo'
men oil over the loyal States, it is easy to sees
that General Mcclellan has no"primrose path

body OF the army advanced on the road 10

Qualifications had been commenced by the re-

arrived there. The army passed on and took

The officer and men were brought to Fort

The mate OF the boat and few soldiers

cases Of ammunition, and Captain Hart forbid
them TO throw any more overheard. We
then requested the Sergeant Mai jor to throw
the cannon overheard, which be refused to
DO, saying that it would be worse for them
il they we're taken prisoners. Captain lisrt
then requested the chain to be shipped and
the boat run ashore, which was done.
The white flag was then hristed and the
crew Of the boat left in their boats. We
endeavored to get boats to carry the soldiers
from the Fanny, but could not do so. To
the best Of my opinion they had plenty OF
time from our arrival to that Of the enemy 8
boats, to have got everything on shore from
the Fanny, if sufficient boats had been en-
ployed in the transportation Of the stores, so
that we conld have destroyed the Fanny before

attacked the 20,h Indiana regiment, com
