Gen POpe's Official Report.

Gen Pope, in his official report of the re-
cent battles in Virginia, severely censures the
conduct of Fitz John Porter, but speaks in
the highest terms of the zeal and energy of
Gems Mcdowell, Banks, Reno, Heintzleman,
Hooker and Kearney.
He attributes the disaster of Saturday
jointly to the bad conduct of Porter, and the
failure of Mcclellan to seEd him supplies
On this point he says:
DO not hesitate to say that if the corps
of Franklin had attacked the enemy in flank,
on the afternoon of Friday, as he had nv
written order to do, we should utterly have
crushed Jackson before the forces under Lee
could have reached him. Why he did not do
so, cannot understand. Our men, much
worn down by hard service and continuous
lighting for many previous days, and short of
provisions, rested on their guns. Our horses
had had no forage for two days. had tele-
graphed and written urgently for rations and
forage to be sent US, but, on Saturday morn
ing, before the action was resumed, | receiv-
ed letter from General Franklin, written the
day before at Alexandria, steting to me that
he had been directed, by Gen Mcclellan, to
inform me that rations and forage for my
command would be loaded into cars, and "a
valuable wagons, as soon as l would send a
cavalry escort to Alexandria to bring them
up.
All hope of being able to maintain my po-
sition, whether victorious or not, vanished
with that letter. My cavalry was utterly bro
ken down by long service in the face of the
enemy. and bad as they were, could not be
spared from the front, even if there had been
time to go back thirty miles to Alexandria,
and await the loading of the trains. At the
time this letter was written Alexandria was
swarming with troops, and my whole army
interposed between that place and the enemy.
at once understood that We must, if possible
finish what We had to do that day, as night
must see US behind Bull Run, if We wished to
save men and animals"

At late meeting of the Executive commit

But be it so or not, is it for US to despond or
neglect other important interests upon which
our enjoyment and success as individuals and

The agricultural prospects of the North are
