Dispatches from Washington furnish some
important correspondence. The Rebel Gen
eral Lee informs General Mcclellan that the
oath of allegiance taken by " citizens of his
Government" and paroles given by them not
to bear arms against the United States will
not be regarded as obligatory, and that per-
sons who take them will be 6 required to rem
der military service" and that should our
Government treat this military service as a
breach of parole the Rebel Government will
| resort TO retaliatory measures. Gen. McClel-
lan having transmitted the letter to WASH
ington, Gen. Halleck states in reply that our
Government has never authorized the extor
ton of any oaths of allegiance or military
paroles, but on the contrary, has refused the
application of several thousand prisoners
to be permitted to take the oath and return
TO their homes in the Rebel States. AT the
same time the Government claims, and will
exercise the right to arrest, impriSon or send
beyond its military lines, any persons suspeG-
ted of treason or atfording aid to the enemy !;
and if such persons voluntarily take the oath
and afterwards violate it they will be punish
ed according to military usages. General
Lee is also assured that " no unseemly threats
of retaliation" will deter the Government
from 6 exercising its lawful rights over per-
sons and property of whatever character
In second letter addressed directly to Gen.
Lee IN answer to one in relation to the execution
OF Mumford at New Orleans, General Halleck
states that measures will be taken to ascer-
tain the facts in relation thereto, and gives
the assurance that the United States authori-
ties will conduct the contest in strict accor.
dance with the laws and usages of modern
warfare, and that all excesses will be duly
punished. In regard to parties who, in dis
gulse as peaceful citizens, penetrate our lines
to burn bridges, &C., General Halleck adheres
to the rules laid down in January last, direc-
ting their execution as spies. Then follows
another letter from General Lee repeating in.
quiries as to the hanging of Mumford instan'
cling what he calls atrocities and again threat
enng retaliation. Under date of August I'd,
General Lee addresses General Halleck
transmitting jeff. Davis instructions, already
published, as to retaliation upon the officers
of General Pope's Army in consequence of
his orders. To this latter letter General
Halleck replies that as the papers enclosed
are "ccuched in language exceedingly insul
" ting to the Government fthe United States.
" must respectfully decline to receive them.
" They are herewith returned"
