WASHINGTON, July IA, 1862
To the President
The undersigned, Representatives of Ken
lucky Virginia, Missouri and Maryland, in the
two Houses of Congress, have listened to your
address with the profound sensibllty naturally
inspired by the high source from which it ems-
mates, the earnestness which marked its delivery,
and the overwhelming importance of the subject
of which it treats We have given it a most
respectful consideration, and now lay before you
our response. We regret that want Of time has
not permitted US to make it more perfect
We have not been wanting, Mr. President, in
respect to you. and in devotion TO the COnsEltu-
ton and the Union. We have not been indif-
ferent to the great difficulties surrounding you,
compared,with which ell former national troubles
have been as & summer cloud; and we have
freely given you our sympathy and support
Repudiating the dangerous heresies OF the Se-
cessoni5ts, we believed, with you, that the war
on their part is aggressive and wicked, and the
objects for which it was to be prosecuted oa
ours, defined by your message at the opening OF
the.present Congress, to be such as all good men
should approve, we have not heSitated to vote
all supplies necessary to carry it on vigorously.
/ We have voted sll the men and money you have
asked for, and even more; we have imposed
enormous taxes on our people, and they are pay
ing them with cheerfulness and alecrity; we have
encouraged enlistments, and sent to the field
many OF cur best men; and some Of our num-
Der have offered our persons to the enemy as
pledges of their sincerity and devotion to coun-
try We have done all this under the most
discouraging circumstances, and ia the face OF
measures most distasteful to us and injurious to
the interests we represent and in the hearing
of doctrines avowed by those VINO claim to be
your friends, most abherrent TO us and oul
constituents. But, for all this, we have neYel

Yankee Fornr on tl.e Csnsras RaiIrsad.

The Richmond Dispatch of the 21st states that
the train which left the city the morning previ-
ous, found the track obssructed near Beaver
Dam Station (27 miles from Ricbmond) and the
conductor was informed that Yankees were tear
ing up the track quarter Of a mile ahead. The
train returned to the city. Il gives the following
particulars in connection with the affair:
A young German has been for some time per
mitted 70 pass between that point and Frede-
Ticksburg, keeping up a traffic in articles which
he supposed would be readily purchased by the
Inhabitants Only two or three days ago, he
made his appearance at Beaver Dam Station,
in company with two ladies from Fredsricks-
burg, who had received passports from the Fede-
raj commander a. that place, and were on their
way to Richmond, to visit some relations This
German also brought with him a sack Of salt,
and quantity Of lemons, which found ready
sale; but he refused to receive Confederate notes
in payment-nothing but gold would satisfy
him. This circumstance excited some Suspicion
but be was allowed to depart unmOlested- That
the enemy received their information rom this
German pedlar there is little doubt.
Besides obstructing the railroad, the Yankees
cut the telegraph wire, and We are thus unable
to get positive information concerning the state
of affairs at Beaver Dam Station. It's believed
however, that the depot was destroyed by the
Yankees, who retrested toward that point on
the approach Of the train, and dense volume
of smoke was soon afterwards seen in the same
direction.

To tde President.

THCKLY SETTLED.-Thers were on yesterday
very nearly, if not quite, 5000 Yankee prisoners
of war on Belle Isle. They seemed to be in the
enjoyment Of excellent health and spirits. They
are housed in bad weather in large tents. It is
well that negotiations are pending for the ex-
change Of these prisoners, for it costs great
deal to feed them, and the provisions necessary
posed of in providing for our own noble fellows.
The 5000 prisoners on the island ere by no
means all that were captured in the recent battles
before Richmond, at least 5000 (some Of whom
are badly wOunded) remaining in the city. Sew
eTal of the tobacco factories, as also the Libby
warehouse, have been converted iRto hospitals
for the accommodation of the Yankee wounded.
The Libby building is also used as receiving
depot.-RichmOzd Dispatch, July 10.

fTom Fredericksburg are of an interesting char

point As early as Thursday decided unea-
siness was manifested among the invaders there,
and preparations were in progress for g speedy
exit An unusual number of vessels Of differ
eut descriptions have ascended the Rsppahan-
neck river, and other means Of transportation
were being used in the removal Of the vast
amount Of stores that it is understood were ac-
cumulated ct that place 1t is not unlikely that
the stores are being removed under the 8ppre-
henson that or forces design an attack upon
that point. From developments which reach
Us Of dIe movements Of the enemy in tho Val
ley of Virginia, and along the line Of the Zap
pabauuock, VIC are warranted in believing there
is evident fear existing in the Federal capital
that there is to be a change OfpOHcy in the fu-
ture conduct of the war Time must decide the
ground for such apprehensiOns.-Rich Dis

FROM FRRDEBICKsBURG AND BALTIMORE.
From g gentleman attached to the cavalry ser

sope interesting news from Fredericksburg.
Tho enemy has entirely evacuated that city, and
retired beyond the Rappshannock, on the north
bank Of which he has posted o cavalry picket.
The joy of the citizens is unboUnded at this
sudden departure of their oppTessors.
Oar informant, before leaving Fredericksburg,
met with gentleman Just arrived from Balti-
more, from whom be learned that tho Yankees
have Withdrawn from Baltimore all their troops
except three regiments Of militia. All their
available force has been Withdrawn from Wash
ington. The destination of these troops was
not positively known, but it was currently be-
levsd they he'd been sent to Gen. Pope in the
