GoTTscHALK ON THE UNIoN.-During the

ist in the Canadas, he gave an exhibition
of his patriotism to our neighbors. At his
concert in Montreal, the house being cram

for Dixie" as soon as the pianist took his
seat. Such a reception for moment nat
urally confused the pianist, but collecting
his ideas at once, he faced his audience
and sat in silence for few moments, with
folded arms. When the tumult ceased, he
turned 10 his piano, and, as one Of his COM
panions says, played Hail Columbia, the
uStar-Spangled Banner" and "Yankee
Doodle, as they were never before played
on that instrument. The audience were
completely shamed, and acknowledging the
rebuke, were liberal in their applause dur
ing the rest Of the evening It may not
be generally known that dottschslk IS Q
native of New Orleans, and for this exhi-
bitioh Of his patriotism he should have ful
credit. After the concert, he remarked to
friend that he would have seen the audi

LETTER OF GEN, MCDOWELL.

WASHINGTON. September lO.-The fol.
lowing is General McDowells letter to the
President
To His EXcellency the President of the United
States:
have been informed by Senator that
he has note written by Colonel of Cav.
airy, mortally wounded in the recent bat
ties, stating, among other causes, that be
was dying victim to McDowelI's treach-
ery," and his last request was that this note
might be shown to you.
That the Colonel believed this charge and
felt that his last act on earth was a great
public service, there can be no question.
This solemn accusation from the grave of
gallant officer who died for his country, is
entitled to great consideration and | feel
called upon to meet it as well as general
charge, from one now no logger lie to sup.
port it, can be met.
therefore beg yOu to please cause
court martial to be instituted for its inves-
tigation, aud in tie absence of any koowl-
edge whatever as TO the particul act or
acts, time or place, or general conduct. that
the deceased may have hsd in view.
have to ask that the inquiry be without
limi alton and be upon any point and every
subject which may in any way be supposed
to have led to his belief. That it may be
directed to my whole conduct as a general
officer, either under another or whilst in q
separate command, whether ou matters of
administration or command; to my cores
pondence with any OF the enemys com.
manders, or with any one within the ene-
my's lines, Or TO my conduct, or the policy
pursued by me towards the inhabitants of
the country occupied by our troops, with
reference to themselves or their property;
and further to any imputations of indirect
treachery or disloya atty to the nation, or any
trust, whether have or have not been
faithlu! as subordinate to those placed
over me; given them heartily and to the
best of my capacity all the support 10 my
power; and whether have or have not
failed through unworthy or personal mo.
tives, to 60 to the aid or send reinforce
ments to my brotherscommanders.
That this subject of my alleged treache.
ry or disloyal.y will be taIly inquired into,
l beg that all officers and soldiers or civil.
ians, who may know or thank they know of
any act of mine liable to the charge p
question, will make it known to the court.
also beg that the proceedings of the
court may be opeL and tree to the press
from DAY to day.

The President continued: " Yes, sir, twelve

from three to, five to one, and must believe
them. We have four hundred thousand

Flint Hill and the Warrenton Junction,
with the advance, under Hooker, in front
of Germantown.
With the exception of Sumner, the COM
manders of the army corps of the Army of
the Potomac had continued to inform me
that their commands were and had been de-
moralized ever since they left Harrisons
Landing that they had no spirit aud no
disposition 10 fight. This latter statement
their conduct in the various actions fully
| contra1icted, bat the struggling in those
corps was distressing.
The fall facts having been reported,
OF Tuesday afternoon, TO retire to the
intrenchments near Washington, which was
accordingly done on that day and the next,
in good order and without the slightest
| loss.
Banks, who had been left with the rail.
road trains. cut off at Bri: tol by the burning
OF the bridge, was ordered to join me on
Monday at Centreville, which he did on the
atterno n of that day.
Tnis brief summary will explain suffi.
ciently in detail the whole of the operations
OF the forces under my command, during
sixteen days Of continuous fighting by day
and marching by night.
10 confront powerful enemy with great.
ly inferior forces, and fight him day by day
without losing your army; to delay and
embarrass bis movements, and to force him,
by persistent, resistance, to adopt long and
circuitous routes to his destination are the
duties which have been imposed upon me.
They are, of all military operations, the most
difficult and the most harassing, both to the
commander and to his troops. How far we
have been successful, leave to the judg.
ment of my countrymen. The Armies of
Virginia and of the Potomac have been
united in the presence and against the
efforts of wary and vigorous enemy in
greatly superior force to either, with no loss
for which they did not exact full retribution.
Among the officers whom feel bouud to
mention with especial gratitu lie, for their
most hearty, cordial and untiring zeal and
energy, are Generals Mcdowell, Banks,
Reno, Heintzelman, Hooker and Kearney,
and many others of inferior rank, whom l
shall take great satisfaction in bringing to
the notice of the Government.
The troops have excited wonderful pa
thence and courage, and l cannot say too
much tor them.

Gen. HalIeck'S Army.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune describes the magnificent
force underGcn. Halleck as follows
Our cavalry must number from
ten to fifteen thousand. say figure
between the two. 1t is commanded
by, from all | have heard of him, a
most gallant officer. He is evidently
a man Of great energy, dash, and Of
known personal courage. Gen. An
drew jackson Smith cllafcs under the
restraints of his position, and is most
eager to do something to bring this
heretofore most expensive and most
useless arm Of the service into play.
If anything can be done with the force
here, | have no doubt he is the man
to do it. Were permitted, might
give you the way Gen. Smith will EN-.
ploy this force in the coming action
and that he will employ it effectively
if possible | am confident. When the
attack in front commences, Gen. Smith
will take up his position with at least
ten thousand mounted men-the larg-
est force of cavalry ever brought into
the field OH this continent, aud the
blow that he will strike If his men
come up to the expectations of their
General, will not he the least effective
of the general engagement. With
this force of cavalry, over three hun.
dred pieces of artillery and one hun
dred thousand infantry, surely some
thing worthy the great army of the
Northwest will be accomplished.

The National Capital.

A few days since some Of the semi
secesh papers published what pur
ported to be Washington dispatches
to the effect that the rebel army
10000 strong, were within four miles
OF Washington. In reference to such
absurd statements the National Intel
ligencer says:
''The people Of Washington are not
apprized that the enemy is marching
on the city, nor are they aware that
the Capital is mcnaced again" Such
representations, besides creating a
false alarm, (which is always to be
avoided, are unjust to the military
dispositions the Government has
made for the protection Of this city,
while their only effect abroad can be
to produce Fictitious impression
more complimentary to the military
strength of the insurgents than the
facts of the case can bc held to war
rant. The absurd rumors which find
currency among idlers, quid-nuncs,
and secession sympathizers," have
not disturbed the equanimity of the
people of Washington"

Norfolk, Va.

A despatch from Norfolk dated May
Both says:
Col. Hawkins Of the 9th New York
Regiment, with twenty men, arrived
here in the Port Royal last night, hav.
ing left Roanoke Island yesterday
morning and passed up by way of
Curltuck Sound, and thence by canal
to Elizabeth river. Thus the inland
route is opened, by which Gen. Burn
sides department may communicate
with Capital, without the risk of the
passage outside of Hatteras. Several
sloops and schooners flying the Ameri.
can flag, have already come through
and been allowed to proceed to Balti-
more.
BY special invitation of the officers
of the British war steamer Rinaldo,
Gen. Viele, military governor of the
city, paid visit to the vessel yester.
day. He was received with great
courtesy and with the honor of salute
of seventeen guns. The American
ensign was flung at the fore. The
Rinaldo left this morning and will pro-
coed to sea. Preparations are max
ing on an extensive scale for grand
Union demonstration to take place
shortly.
The oath Of allegiance has been ad-
ministered to nearly 1000 citizens.
They offer themselves in large num-
hers every day to take it, voluntarily
1t Is not made compulsory upon any
one. The sentiments of the proposed
meeting should be satisfactory to Gen.
Wool. 1t would probably induce the
President to open the port.
Information is received from our
scouts who are advanced some miles
beyond Suffolk, that the city of Peters
burg is to be or has been EVACUATED
by the rebels. The Seaboard and
Roanoke railroad, it has been asserted
is in good order as far as the Black.
water river. When Craney Island
was evacuated, the Sutler loaded his
goods on a sloop and endeavored to
save them. The sloop was found to-
day with the goods few miles below
the Island, upon the beach. The prop
erty is supposed to be worth $4,000
or 81 200, and was taken charge of by
the Provost Marshal.

CAPT. GARDNER.-Some fifty citizens
Of Chickasaw county have signed and
published petition asking Captain
Gardner of Company b, 18th Regiment
Iowa Infantry, to resign and give
place to better man. The petition,
crs say:
We feel that you have falsified your
pledges and disappointed our just ex.
pcctations, and without criticising
your military capacity. we arraign
you at the bar of humanity for sins OF
omission and commission, too fragrant
to be patiently borne. ...
The petitioners then proceed to
enumerate several instances of inhu,
manity and neglect of most aggra-
waiting character. We should like to
sec Fred. Bosworth, G. j. Tisdale and
that ilk now brought face to face be-
fore those Mitchell and Floyd boys
whom they so meanly tainted and in.
suited at the time of the organization
Of Gardeners company. We regard
their troubles as a righteous retribu-
tion for past misconduct.
