Infamous Rehnvior Of General Porter


From the Baltimore American September 81
On Friday General Pope asked to be relieved
of his command, and his request was granted
He at once preferred charges against Generals
Porter, Franklin and Griffin, for not obeying or
ders in the late engagements and causing ouI
defeat
A court-martial had orders to assemble Satur-
day morning, and met at theWar Department
Judge Holt, judge advocate MgjOr-GeneTal
Cadwallsdsr, General Casey and General Mans
field, the board. On account Of the uon-attend.
snce of Gene5sl Mansfield, and that of General
Porter who is to be tried first, they adjourned
till Monday morning at IL o'clock.
Porter's command has been given to General
Heintz5lman.
The following, from a member Of General
Popes staff, indicates the charge against General
Porter
The battle of Friday was commenced by
General Heintzelman's corps, supported by Nc
Dowell and Sigel, and resulted after q contiuu-
Gus combat from eight in the morning until
sunset, in our obtaining possession Of the field,
with the enemy's killed and wounded in our
hands. Porter, already in advance of Manassas,
received orders here to fall upon the right flank
of the enemy, and to commence the attack the
moment Heintzelman engaged the center but,
for reasons unsatisfactory TO General Pope, aud
which are mystery to the entire army after a
feeble demonstration on the enemy, Porter retired
to Manassas, leaving the forces of Heiutzelmsu,
Mcdowell and Sigel TO sustain the powerful
attack of the Confederate armies Of Virginia,
commanded by Lee and Johnston, who rad
arrived and effected junction with Jaclson's
Longstreet's, Hills and Ewelrs divisions, max
a combined army Of two hundred thousand men
that engaged in the battle Of the ensuing day
Saturday
q Il does not seem to admit Of peradventure
that, had Porter obeyed the orders of General
Pope, aud attacked the enemy's right flank
while Pope was successfully driving their cen
ter and forcing them back on Friday, the whole
Of Jackson's army would have been utterly
routed and the greater portion of 1t captured.
" The conduct of General Porter gave great
dissats faction to General Pope and the army
generally. General Porter sent note to Cen
eral Pope, assigning as reason for his falling
back to Manassas, that he supposed General
Pope to be in retreat. He was answered by an
order to report Immediately in person to head
quarters in the field, and bring his force to the
front before daylight in the morning"

Letter from General Mcdowell TO the
President.

New YORK, Sept I2-The following is the
letter Of General Mcdowell demanding Of the
President a thorough investigation OF the accu-
satiou of Colonel Brodhesd:
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.
To His Exoellsney the President
I have been informed by Senator that he has
seen a note in pencil, written by a colonel in
cavalry, mortay wounded in the recent battles,
stating, among other causes, that ne was dying
"a victim to McDOwelrs treachery," and that
his last request was that this note be shown to
you That the colonel believed this charge, and
felt that his last act on earth was a great public
service, there can be no question. This solemn
accusation from the grave of gallant officer,
who died for this country, is entitled to great
consideration, and / feel called upon to inset it
as well as so general a charge from one no
longer able to support it can be met. therefore
beg you to please cause court TO be instituted
for its investigation, and in the absence Of any
knowledge whatever As % the particular act or
acts, time or place. OF general conduct the de-
ceased may have had in view ! have to ask
that the inquiry be without limitation, and be
upon any point and every subject which may in
any way be supposed to have led to his belief that
it may be directed to my whole conduct as a
general officer, either under another, or whilst in
q separate command; to my correspondence
with any of the enemy's Commanders or with
any one within the enemy's lines to my con-
dact or the policy pursued by me toward the
inhabitants of the country occupied by our
troops, with reference to themselves or their
property; aud, further, to any imputations OF
indirect treachery or dsloyslty to the nation, or
any individual having, like myself, an impoT-
tsnt trust; whether [ have or have not been
faithful as a subordinate to those placed over
Hle, giving them hearty, and, to the best Of my
capacity all ths support in my power; and
whether [ have or have not tailed through un-
worthy or personal motives 20 go TO the aid Of
or send reinforcemeuts to my brother com
mandeTs.
That this subject Of my alleged treachery or
disloyslty will be fully inquired iatO, beg ths.
ali officers, soldiers, or civilians who know or
think they know of any act OF mine liable to the
charge in question, be allowed and invited TO
make it known to the court. I also beg that the
proceedings of the court may be open and free
to the press from day to day.

obedient servant, IRWIN Mcdowell

Negro soIdiers Aeain.

If the following from the Port Royal cores
pondence of the New York Times be true, il
will be seen that the radicals have succeeded in
csjoling old Abe into their pet policy
a have reason to believe that General Hun
ter's views upon the question Of f)rming negro
regiments have been upreseTvedly adopted By
the President, and the whole question has as
sumed such different phase that General
Hunter almost regrets that he is to leave the de-
psrtment The last mail brought the authOri-
cation of the President to enlist FIVE regiments
Of negroes, to be armed and uniformed for the
service of the United States, and also authorizes
the enrolment of an additional 80 900 to be en-
ployed in the QusrtermsSter's department, nom
inally as laborers, but as they are TO be organ
lied into companies and uniformed, and g por-
ton Of their time is to be spent in drilling, it is
easy to understand that the possibility Of their
being used as soldiers is not lost sight CT. The
exact time of commencing the work Of eulisting
the colofed recruits, sm not able to state, but
that it will be shortly, to my mind there Is not
a shadow Of doubt"

breeze was blowing at the time, and before many
minutes the fire, which originated in the tower,
soon descended TO the body Of the building, and
burned with irresistible fury. The entire fire

far as the attempt to save the elevator was con

Of the Treasury, Of 81, APO 900 600 by the st o
January next-a sum which far exceeds, IN
amount, the value of al ttc LaHdS IN all The JTcc
States, except CaliiOTniS aud Oregon, reckoning
them at eight dollars per acre. You will, by
freeing the slaves, have rendered Southern lands
utterly valueless, and thus imposed on your
selves the burden of paying the interest on the
enormous debt aforementioned
And what, think you, would be the further
consequences cf your complete success, could
you attain it TAen--sh, then-your hour OF
trial would come. A million Of men-whose
homes had been destroyed, banded together tor
vengeance, goaded to desperation, leaving be-
hind them their desolats felds-would rush
across your borders, seeking q land Of plenty;
and your well-fled barns, too, would smoke
with the fires Of destruction. Your homes, too,
would be desolated and in bitterness. You
would cry" Why did we not remember in the
day of our pride and exultstiOn, that it IS God
himself who hath declared that The race is not
always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong"
Men of the West, who are not blinded by
fanaticism, l appeal to you to pause and reflect
The great and christian chief of the Southern
Confederacy does not desire the continuance Of
this war Again and again he has said letus
alone and the sword shall drop from our hands
The Southern people have not made this war.
With guiltless hands they can pray to the
Prince Of Peace" for success. But, how can
you approach His throne-you who Danish
peace from the land.
This great country hath verge and scope
enough for two great nations why should not
the South then be permitted to go in peace
The Confederate States have not yet invaded
your sol-her people have waited in patience,
and in strictly defensive warfare, till the mad
ness which seemed to enthrsll the North should
have passed away.
But as surely as the sun shineth, it Will not
always be thus and if you cease not to invade
the homes Of others, yours too, will be laid
desolate.
Arise, then, men of the West, and demand
that the enormous expenditures of blood and
money in the vain prosecution of war which
is wsisting both North and South wax which
is deprecated by all Christendom, and which
threatens to involve you with both England and
France, to your certain destruction. Arise and
demand that his war shall cease that the ad-
ministrstion shall allow the people to return to
their accustomed pursuits and not call upon
them to sacrifice their lives and property in
frui.lsss struggle for the maintenance of Union

II The credence to which the report Of
MsjOr- General John Pope, concerning the recent
battles in Virginia, is entitled, is appreciated
when it is known that the President of the
United States remarked on a late occasion that
Pope was among the greatest of living liars.
As matter of fact it is said that il is impossi-
bic for him TO tell the truth. He is 8 e0nsttu-

on their face evidence Of this ill6rmity, and this
