THE MANAGEMENT OF THE CAMPAIGN.
A recent letter of MIR. Diven. menber of
Congress from New York, contains the fol-
lowing statement in defence OF the President
AND Gen. Mcclellan:
Why our army does not strike n some
other point than the stronghold of the etselny
here ? We can't withdraw any considerable
force from the army of the Potomac without
weakening our line, and we have vigllant
foe ready to take advantage of any movement
OF the kind. They can afford to have their
wings turned, if they can force our center.
Trust, my dear sir, to the skill of nen quite
as anxious for victory as either you or can
be, with more knowledge of the means by
which il can be attained. A joint committee
has been in session for the last few weeks
Ii was created by those opposed ito the man
ner in which the war has been conducted.
| opposed it, but that was among my mis-
takes. 1t has done good; the plans of the
army have been disclosed to this committee.
They must keep the secrets thus communi-
Gated, but know they are now satisfied with
the plans; Mcclellan has been before them.
The President stated the other day in my
presence, that there was probably but one
man in the country more anxious for battle
than himself, and that man was Mcclellan.
He repudiated in words of withering rebu' =
to those who make the charge, that he or A.
Seward or Gen. Mcclellan were tar -.
or delaying out of any considerable r. aJs ~
els or rebel institutions, or that + "a ~
any thought of eading the wa hv sov nu, masu'
other than conquest on 4 20 hs;t,s a sala s"'
wish every man in our i md cond % h,aa e,a, ha.r

FROM THE MEASURES adopted by the
Government with regard to the treatment
of the rebel prisoners taken on privateers,
who are TO be regarded as ordinary pris-
oners of war, il is exceedingly probable
that the leading prisoners of the Union
army in captivity at the South, including
Colonels Coreoran, Lee, Coggswell, VIII
cox, Rongers and Woodruff, will soon be
exchanged and return to their homes.
Mr.. Ely and Lieut. Connolly. OF the
New YORK Sisty-nintn, who has just been
released from Columbia. s. c., had an
interview with the President and Mr..
Seward yesterday on the subject. The
bark Trinity left Boston yesterday for
Fortress Monroe, with 386 rank and file,
and eleven officers from Fort Warren, to
be changed for an equal number OF our
soldiers IN the hands of the rebels.

EayThe Times correspondent says that
Gen. Scott is about to proceed to Mexico,
upon delicate and important mission. 1t
is thought to be the duty of the United States
to prevent, if possible, the establishment of a
precedent so fc rmidable as that which now
threatens the permanent occupation Of the
seaports of our sister Republic. BY the re-
moval of the pretext for this wanton and un-
justifable invasion of Mexico by the allied
powers, we may save Mexico from the disas-
ter which must follow the establishment OF
the allies within her borders. 1t is supposed
that by Gen. SCOTS timely advice and coun-
sci, backed by the offer of the material aid
necessary to extricate the Mexican govern
ment from its present peril, will restore peace
and prosperity to the Mexican people, and at
the same time peaceably secure for the com.
merce of this country the advantages which
England, Spain and France have sought te
gain by the sword.

singing patriotic songs as they wended their

These two companies having arrived, the
Regiment is now full But few of the com.
panies however, are yet filled to the maxi.
mum number. Capt. Kilburn ofthe Rutland
Company, has surplus of twenty men en-
listed, who will doubtless go into other com

THE DEFEAT IN KENTUCKY.

Large reinforcements Of cavalry have
been sent from this city to Gen, Critten-
den, and a battery of artillery is ready to
move. The most Of the reports Of the
battle first received seem to have been
much exaggerated. W ~ sW
Two guns of Monsarratt's battery being
ON this side Of the river, were saved
Gen Crittenden made but short stand
at monticello, and then fell back to Camp
McGinnis, and may fall still further back,
in order to collect those of his force who
are scattered. Accounts brought in by the
new arrivals are very conflicting.
Capt. Shlala, Of the Engineers, gives
the following statement OF the battle :H
I On last Saturday night, Gen. Critten-
den and forces marched out to meet the
enemy at Fishing Creek, Ii miles distant.
They met the enemy lying in ambush,
just at the dawning of day, when Gen.
Zollicotfer. who was in, front, gave the
order of an attack, Col. Staunton cried
out aFor God sake don't fre-they are

would probably meet no more.
