THE PORTER COURT-MARrIAL.
The Fitz John Porter Court Martial was occupied
Gen. Pope, which was msinly directed to The sua.
ton and movements of the different armies during
the three days battles il August.
The counsel for the accused evidently was ell
deavoring to show by his examination that the
orders given by Gen. Pope were unintelligible OF
impratttable III the circumstances, and that Gen.
Porter obeyed them 80 far as possible. 1t is the
general impression, however that there ia strong
against Porter but that 70 much of IL as depends
solely on tie evidence of Pope is weakened by the
crossexamipation and by the want Of confidence in
Ropes statements. The counsel for the accused
ANNOUNCED that they were through with Pope, and
the Court adjourned till Monday st eleven.
