NEW York, Nov. IOth.-The New
York Tribune prints the report of

of the facts elected, editorially: "The
material facts are as follows: Col.
Miles was in command at Harper's
Ferry. Gen. White was present from
Sept. 18th till the surrender, but not
assuming command. Col. Ford took
command of Maryland Heights Sept.

for Rockville Sept. 7,h, most of his
forces having preceded him.
"The enemy attacked Maryland

tons tn spike his guns if compelled to
abandon them. About two O'Clock,
Col. Ford abandoned the Heights.
The enemy did not occupy them, and
the mex, day Col. D'Uttassy aud com
panies brought away guns and a
wagon load of ammunition.
"After the evacuation of MARYLAND
Heights Col. Miles sent word to Nc.

unless reinforced he could not hold ont

who was engaged with the enemy al

the needed assistance, or to give it in

no other rtfnrt to relieve the place.
"The enemy attacked Harper's Ferry
on the 18th inst. AT A. nj. the sur
render was agreed to, or Col. Miles

ders whom he consulted, that his am
munilion was nearly exhausted, and
they concurring in his discretion, to

"The Commission acquit Gen. White,
Col. D'Uttassy and Col. Trimble of all
blame for the surrender, and praise
the capacity of the former. They find
that Col. Ford was given by Col. Miles
discretionary power to abandon Mary
Hand Heights, but that the exercise ol
this discretion was premature, that he
conducted the defense with no ability
and that his exhibition of lack of ca

As far as heard from, BIair's major

The legislature will be Republican.

The majority on joint ballot will be no,
less than twenty FIVE. This will secure
the reelection of Senator Chandler to

Besides this, several Republicans
have been elected on fusion tickets,
which SO far as principles are con-
cerned, renders the republican strength
still greater in both branches OF the
Legislature.
Thisis both gratifying andsigni6cant.
The fusion ticket is routed, horse, foot

fact which cannot be successfully dis
puted that at least two republicans tc

Importance Army Changes.

The telegraph this morning brings
us, we had almost said, the most inn
pOrtant news OF the war;. Gen. Nc
Clellan is removed and Gen. Burnside
succeeds to the chief command of the
Army of Virginia. The redoubtable
"6gnting Jo. Hooker" takes the place
of Gen. Burnside. We warmly con
graduate the country upon these most
auspicious acts. They will reanipate
the spirits and revive the hopes of 10y
al men all over the country. The great
cloud that had settled down upon the
nation will lift and float away, ushering
in glorious sunshine. We did not need
the assurance that the removal of Nc
