fTslsgraphio Correspondence Of Cleveland Leader.
~ WASHINGTON, July ?, 1861.
seveuty-6vs regiments of Federal forces :
have arrived in this city since the Presi-
dents proclamation was issued upon the 10Th
OF April. This was the whole number called
for by that Proclamation, but beside this i'm
msnse force are hundreds of thousands under
orders, and eager to have a hand in crushing
out rebellion.
have before tsissrAphsd you that all
charges against the Administration, OF
thoughts of compromise or Cancellation,
we're utterly grOuudless. The country will
soon see the most overwhelming proof Of
this, and will have cause to look and won
der at the tremendous force with which the
grand army Of the United States will visit
retribution upon the rebels and their strong
holds. Gen. Scott has not sat so quietly in
his Office as to call out the impotence of'the
North, for nothing.
The rebels will be equally surprised with
you of the loyal States, when the army be-
gins to move, for it viii get all their bat
teries at nAught, and make their defences as
useless as 30 many mole hills. Mark my
prophecy, that when the word is given,
Richmond will be taken and occupied in ten
days, and that by a different route from that
to which yOu are looking. Keep your eye
upon the enormous number of teams and
wagons which are daily arriving herel
! The rebels are not as strongly fortified at
Manassas as has been supposed. They have
: only twelve pieces of artillery and thein-
nhzy are very poorly armed.
e The Carolina regiment which ~telegraphed
you had served out thar time and were 60
ing home, positively refuse to go into the
war for a year, as they are wanted to do
t There is likely to be q serious row over the
3 matter.
The rebels are filling up the railroad cut
with dirt, having q large number of negroes
at work.
: The report that Fremont was to supercede
Patterson was not authentic. He is not yet
. assigned to any department. s.
