p1ctty. L0lOGel tQ+d Ga90lQ HQL H--c
-bssn p1aced in command OF tie naFy-
.lsrdc Highte. He conducted the d.
fense without ability, AID abandoned
his position without sufficient Cause, he has
proven himself unworthy a command in the
service.
Upon Col. Miles the commission Is very se-
we're. It pfonounces him incapable and cen
sures Gen Wool for placing him In command.
The commission is equally severe upoa Gen.
Mcclellan He was sent to relieve Harpar'a
Ferry and drive the enemy fron- Marslsad.
He marched siz miles q day with 5000 nasH.
He permits Lee with only Il, 900 men, viii,
only two-thirds Of that number in M4rqlsnd,
to capture Hnrper's Ferry, unite his army aud
Feet him at Antfetam. He could and shoutd
have relieved Harpers Ferry.
Sixteen prisoners Of war were sent in from
s;gel, and two more from Leeaburg.
Gen Fitz John Porter ia ordered here to al
swer charges against him By Gen Pope.
There Is no confirmation Jet Of the reported
capture Of 5000 rebels by Gen. Foster, at
Plymouth, though It is regarded as not im-
probable.
The paragraph touching Lord Lyons, in the
A1my and Ndsy Gasette, Is as follows: Lord
Lyons returns by the Scotia to his post At
Washington. 1t may be inferred thst the gov
eminent is rot inclined to depart from the
policy it has heretofore pursued in reference
to the contest between the NORTH and South,
not from the fact that the councils did not
| sit, but from the ministers individually aad
| from the speeches Of Sir G. Lewis aud Mr..
| Gladstone and the written calculations Of his
meaning, shich ha7a been published by the
latter, but Lord Lyons may nevertheless be
able to represent to the American government
the views Of the British ministers as tc
certair contingencies, and to indicate certaIr
changes ot policy which may be forced or
them by the advent Of certain creats.
The Union as It was can never be restored
but st some time the North must sacceed i,
attaining possession Of all maritime cities, o
all Etrateyic points, and will eventually over
whelm the !srge Southern armies ia the field
unless its arm be paralyzed By d financial cata
Gysm or arrested by internal political discord

ject for practicable consideration. At til
cabinet council appaiuted for to-day ther
may indeed have been some desire on the par
Of certain ministers to make suggestios
that an armfstice for six months might be co1
Guided by the bciligerents. I have reason {
believe, however, that this idea of sugges,ir
81 ar1n1sticc Is not regarded with favor in sou
yerY influential quarters.''
