GEN. HALLECK AND TGlE RE-
PORTEUS.

The reporters for various newspapers
who have been excluded by order Of
Gen. IIalleck from his lines, have pub.
lished . statement Of facts about the
matter.
They state At fret they supposed his
order TO exclude all civilians from his
lines, did not include them, but found
upon making special inquiry Of him, it
did. They presented him a memorial
in which they stated that they were
loyal citizens, and the accredited repre-
sentativcs ofloyal journals, and that;hey

upon which they could remain. Gen.
lIa''cck replied that in order to ria the

included.
They then presented him resolution
stating that they would give HIM salts
factory proofs of their loyalty and Their
whereabouts in the army, that he might
know where to find :hem at all times, &
their parole If honor which the Secrc-
fary Of War las announced as q condi.

piled cit VIII not do at all, AMI that
lie would take no proofs orthe;s loyalty,
and turned lis back upon them. The
reporters then left. lie repeatedly said
however that he cared not what they
wrote, nor what the newspapers pub
lislel. After all this exhibition Of lair.
ness on the part Of tho reporters, We
ti,ink Gen. HaiIeck did care what tie,
might write, or Woull have permitted
them to remain. These reporters are
always more capable Ct giving a true
account Of a battle or action, than even
the Generals themselves; because they
are not in tkc cnga cement, havcnothing
to gain or loose, they look on for the
purpose Of giving information to others,
they frequently ride hurriedly on horse
back from one part Of the action to
another, and thus are enable to gather
facts, which none can, who do not enjoy
their liberty. Should Gen. Halleck
make q blundcr, they would be the first
to discover it and herald it forth.
and this we believe is what the General
intends to provide against. The repor-
teis state that every day civilians arc
coming from, and entering through the
lines, and some even from Gen. Hallecks
headquarters. and that if they could
not honorably remain they preferred
leaving, which they did.

THE NEWS

The news from Gen. Banks Depart
ment is sad and distressing. The at
tack upon his lines commenced on the
oath. On the 18th the forces under
Gen. Shields and Gen. Gcary were
withdrawn from his department TO re-
inforcc Gen. Mcdowell, leaving him
but about 4 900 linen. About the same
time a union had been effected by the
rebel forces under Johnson, Jackson
and Ewcll, to the number OF $4,000 or
10000, and commenced marching up
on him. Our troops fought bravoly,
but were obliged to retreat from time
to time before the superior numbers, UNI
til 1T last they were driven from the
valley of the Shenandoah acoss the
Potomac into Maryland. The rebels
displayed their usual amount Of trcach-
cry. On one occasion, under Ashby
they displayed white flag until with
in.Listolrangc when they dropped it and
sprang upon our men with all the fury
Of tiends showing them no quarters.
Great fears were entertained by the
loyal citizens of Baltimore and Wash,
ington, lest the rebels might march
down and take those cities. At the
same time the rebels Of those places,
were bold and insulting, and in Balti-
more riots grew out Of the news. 100
persons are reported knocked down ia
one day, ard ropes brought out on two
or three occasions to hang persons, but
were stopped by the police. Thcknock-
ing down was principally done BY the
Union men, who seemed determined
to hold the rebels in subsection.
The Governors Of Pennsylvania and
Massachusetts, have ordered troops for
ward from their States to Washington.
Guerrilla parties arc troublesome in

stores have been destroyed by them
