MR. EDITOR: In your last paper you publish ed a statement, taken from the Adjutant Gener- ars report, purporting to give the number of volunteers which each town in this county has furnished to put down the southern rebellion in that statement there is great mistake as respects the number from Torrington. Instead of twenty -four officers and privates, the number should be ataleast sirty.f -four. have before me a list of the names of that number of persons, most of whom are now in the service.
 Four have died six were three months men, account for this great mistake of the Adjutant General from thesfact that but few of those who went from this town would report themselves as from Torrington. majority are from Wolcott- vile, and probably so report themselves. There are fifteen families of volunteers who receive State bounty instead of twelve as stated.
 Please publish this letter, 50 that Torrington may have the credit for patriotism which she so well deserves. H.s.B.
 [The error above alluded to is the fault rather of a mortifying typographical biunder, (of our own) than of the Adjutant General. His report reads; four officers and fifty privates. The difference between these figures and our correspondents is easily accounted for, as he supposes, by the fact which the Adjutant Gen. eral gives that large number of volunteers (amounting to 905 in the whole state) are class ed under the head of ssunknown' being ssre- turned from villages, parishes, school districts, and post office stations, without giving the name of the town."

THE PRESIDENTS PRocLANArIoN.-The P,

THE PRESIDENTS PRocLAxArIoN.-The Pres- dent has issued a proclamation rcpudiating the alleged order of General Hunter as unauthorized and of no validity or effect, and reserving to himself the right of determining whether he can. constitutionaIiy, and should, adopt such q policy if the contingencies of war eventually make it necessary. He declares that the government had no knowledge or belief of an intention on the part of Gen. Hunter to issue such procla- nation, nor has it any authentic information that the document is genuine. Neither he nor any other commander has been authorized by the government to make proclamation declaring the slaves of any State free. These questions are totally different from the police regulations in armies and camps.
 The resolution pledging the cooperation of the United States to any State which may adopt gradual abolishment of slaves, with compensa- ton therefor, being passed by large majorities Tn both houses of Congress, stands an authentic, definite and solemn proposal of the nation to the States and the people most interested in the subject matter
 He concludes: |" To the people of the United States now earnestly appeal. do not arpne !: beseech you to make the arguments for your selves. You cannot, if you would, be blind to | tne signs, of the times. I beg of you calm and enlarged consideration of them, ranging, if it may be, far above personal and partisan poll.

 Ferry, We find in the Cowant of Saturday It is in answer to prominent citizen of this coun- sy, whs requested to know whether the General woala permit his name so be used for the place of United States Senator, and does equal credit ID his ht.la and heart:
 HrAeopARrEns 2p BRIGADE. GES- SHIrLD's DIVISION, New Market, Va, May lst. DIal S1K-Four favor of April 18th, is re- rsired- You ask me if will :. permit my name 1p bt used for the place of U. S. Senator, and, if elected serve in the Senate" thank yOu, sincerely, for thekindness which dictated the inquiry. Duty compels me to an swer you in the negative.
 II IS now nearly year since received from the Governor of Connecticut Colonels commis- sion. The study and experience of the interve- ming period must, :.in some degree, have fitted me for usefulness in the field. The President has recently conferred upon me my present rank and command. l should be most ungrateful were to abandon the military service now.
 Moreover, Hove that service. The iealousies miseonstructions, and misrepresentations which one encounters in political life, are all left be- hind. No newspapers daub me with undeserved praise, or assail me with unproveked islander. Here, old opponents meet on common ground our only enemies, the enemies of our. common country.
 One thing more: while propose in no way to interfere in the differences at home, have seen, in my short public career. too much of the evils Of our frequent changes of civil officers to wish to be the instrument of such a change now.- When the public sentiment undergoes an altera- ton, and one party is supplanted by another changes in elective officers must and ought to occur; but for the same political organization to substitute inexperienced for experienced rep rssentatives, at the end of each official term, is worse than folly.
 For myself, as have said, it is manifest that my sphere of duty is here. If can faithfully discharge that duty, and having discharged it, 1t, shall live to see rebellion suppressed, re- united and prosperous, country, . government obeyed st home and respected abroad, will go back to my family and my profession entirely content.
 As have no reserves upon this subject, you can make what use you please of this letter.
 Very truly, your friend,
 ORnIs s. FERRY.

WE have now full particulars of the recent ex- petition up the James river. Commodore Colds, borough was accompanied by the steam frigate Susquehanna, and the gunboats Dacotah, Mari. tanza and Wachusett, and the brig Zouave, the latter mounted with but one gun. The first reb. ei battery at Days Point was found deserted.- The rebel flag was still flying over the battery at Hardy's Point, fifteen miles above Newport News. The place was then shelled, and no re- sponse being made a body of marines was land ed, who found it deserted and took possession.- The rebel garrison four hundred strong, had evac- pated the battery the previous night. Commo- dore Goldsborough then proceeded up the river, finding all the many rebel batteries between liar dy's Point, Fort Huger and Jamestown deserted, with their grns mostly dismounted. NearJames- town he met the division of his squadron that had previously gone up the river under Comman- der Rogers, and was told the history of the pre- ylous days operations at Fort Darling, Be- When last heard from on Friday, Commodore Goldsborough was continuing his progress with most of his squadron up the river above James town, securing the ordnace, &e., abandoned by the enemy as he proceeded. The general evac1- ation of the works below Fort Darling has prob ably enabled him to get within range of the fort, certain mortar boats and other vessels likely to be able to act effectively against that work, as well as the supply vessels necessary to make any further naval attack upon it effective. Itappears that the Monitor and Galena were the only yes sells of the squadron able to run the blockade ot all the rebel lower batteries on Days Point, and at Hardy's Bluff, and all the way up to Fort Dar- ling, where they found the channel obstructed as heretofore stated. On arriving in range of the guns of Fort Darling, which is situated upon an elevation two hundred feet above the water sur face, their further progress was prevented. The remainder of the expedition stopped at points be
 low. The heavy guns of the fort were so depress. ed iu their range as to play most effectively upon the two gunboats. Of twenty-eight shots that struck the Galena, eighteen penetrated her armor. But the shots that struck the Monitor did her no damage whatever, proving that vessel to be invul- 1 nerable to the heaviest ordnance. The armor of the Galena was not designed to resist heavy shot of the description fired at her from the fort at SO great an angle of elevation. On Friday last the Galena and Monitor returned down the river--
 The former vessel, though pierced eighteen tides,
 was not materially injured, and it is believed, that on Saturday both gunboats, accompanied by all their original consorts, followed Commodore
 Goldsborough and the other portion of the squad. ron up the river. -tg .sS* s4
