Republican Caucus at Washington

WASHINGTON, July l2.-The adjourned
meeting of the Republican caucus was
held at the capital tonight. A brief dis,
cussion eDsued on the motion to exclude
spectators.
MIR. Colfax submitted resolution invit
ing all loyal men in this hour of our coun-
try's peRS to put down those in arms against
the government and punish treason severe
ly. This resolution was received with ap-
piause, but was afterwards withdrawn. A
resolution was carried respectfully request
ing the spectators to retire, which they did.
Mr.. Coltax offered the following resolution
as substitute for the address prepared by
MIR. Bingham
Resolved, That we hold it a duty that all
Ioyal men should stand by the Union in this
hour of trial and unite hearts and hands in
earnest efforts for its maintenance against
those armed against it to sustain with deter
mined resolution our patriotic President and
his administration in their energetic efforts for
the prosecution of the war, and the preserva.
ton of the Union against enemies at home
and abroad to punish traitors and treason
with fitting severity, and crush the present
causeless rebellion, so that no flag of disunion
| shall ever again be raised over any portion of
the republic. To this end we invite the co.
operation of all men who love their country In
their endeavOr to rekindle throughout all the
States such patriotic fire as shall utterly con.
sumo all who strike at the Union, and who
sympathize with their treason and palliate
their guilt.

GENERAL BURNSIDR'S ARMY.
ITS ENCAMPMENT AT NEWPORT NEWS.
Of the New York Tribune.

Correspondence Of the New York Tribune.
FORTRESS MONROE, July 10, 1862.
The force of Gen. Burnside, with which
he was on his way to reinforce Gen. Nc.
Olellan, after lying at anchor 10 the Roads
for two days, has been disembarked and
encamped at Newport News. What
is the meaning OF this2 1t is what every
body is asking, but no explanation is
at hand. The object of General Burn
sides delay here was partly to allow
his whole feet to come up, and partly to
await the return Of the President from
General McClellan's headquarters, which
was as much as to say that bis movements
would depend on the Presidents visit. At
all events, as the result of that visit, Gen.
Burnside's forces, which he had pushed on
with such promptness from Newbern, go
that General Mcclellan might, in part, at
least, have the reinforcements he stood so
much in need of, have been halted at the
mouth of the James River and gone into
camp. Among the suggestions 10 explana-
tion is the one that Burnside is de-
signed to have special mission-th
while be is to cooperate with Gen.
eral Nc Clellan his force will not be part
of the Army of the Potomac, but placed in
distinct service. The Inference that we
may safely draw from this stoppage is that
Gen. Mcclellan does not feel q necessity for
more troops to enable him to maintain his
present position; and, further, that he does
not, at present, contemplate an immediate
change Of position, or anything else that be
cannot accomplish with his own forces.
Gen: Burnside prudently keeps bis own
counsels, and only says that he will proba-
bly, not move for several days yet.
Foe p. M.-General Burside proceeds
to Washington via the Potomac, in the
Alice Price, this evening, sudden and un'
expected movement, but without an expla,
nation.
1t is understood that the field of opera.
tiOns for General Burnside's command has
not yet been selected, only that he is to co..
operate direct with General Mcclellan:
A private letter from Newport News,
July 10th, speaking of the landing of Burn
sides troops, says: 81 do not know the
reason Of the sudden appearance of these
gallant fellows here but there is runner
around here that the rebel General Magru.
