MCCLELLAN AND THE ADMINISTRATIoN.-The
Washington correspondent of the Erening
Post, kilograms on Thursday that he has the
the assurance of member of the Cabinet
that the statement in New York paper, that
McClellan's plans will be interfered with by
any in the government, is utterly false Mr..
Lincoln, Mr.. Stanton and others have given
him every assistance. He has an abundance
Of troops who are thoroughly equipped in ev-
erything needed to make an effective army
The stories of the resignation of Stanton or
Welles are equally false. They are evidently
the work of the enemies Of the government
who try to encourage the rebels by rumors of
dissension among our leading men and dStrust
of their ability.

this evening -
Headquarters ARMY OF THE PoToMAC, |
April Is, 1862 I
An official report has been received at head
quarters giving a list Of the killed and wound
ed in the engagement between the Third Yer
mont regiment and the enemy on "Wednesday,
mention of whieh was made yesterday. The
information as far as received puts the killed
at thirty-two, and wounded at ninety /; ten Of
the latter will probably prove fatal.
The conduct of the Vermont troops on the
occasion is spoken OF in the highest terms,
earning for the Green Mountain Boys laureis
only to be won 10y the brave. They drove a
superior number of the enlmy from their for
titled position, but were .Orced to reliuquiSh it
on the rebels being reinforced. The loss of the
enemy in this engagement must have been
heavy, as the well directed fire of our artillery
moved them by acres
Yesterday afternoon, while Lieutenant o.
B. Wagner of the Typographical Engineers,
in company with a squad of men, was making
a survey of the enemy's works, a shell struck
the table on which lay the papers, and, in.
stantly exploding, the left arm of the Lieut..
was shattered and was afterwards amputatcd
He is comfortable this m1rning, and 10 fears
are entertained as to his recovery.
Joseph Luther, Jr., of Bristol, belonging to
the Second Rhode Island regiment, was prob,
ably fatally injured.
Daniel Painter Of Berdans sbarpshoOters,
mentioned yesterday, is dead.
About one o'clock this morning the enemy
in force attempted to cross the dam in front
of our lines, evidently with the view of cap
turing a battery of our artillery, which had
given them considerable trouble during the
last few days. On the rebels making their
appearance they were opened upon by well
directed fire from body of infantry acting as
a reserve to the pckets, forcing them to beat
a retreat, leaving their dead and wounded on
the dam, which they succeeded in recovering
before daylight.
Both parties then opened with artillery,
which has continued at intervals up to the
present time. None of our men were killed.

ba~ The brief message of President Lincoln
announcing his signature to the bill aboliShing
slavery in the District of Columbia, is another
evidence of the moderation and prudence of
the Executive. Nothing more becomes the
possessor of great patronage and power than
the ever-pregent conciousness of his RESPONSE
bilties, and his anxiety to do no act rashly or
unrefectingly.

MOUNT JACKSON, Va, April H. 1852
Mount Jackson was occupied this morning
at niue o'clock, the rebels showing but feeble
resistance, and burning the bridges as they re-
treated Our advance was made by the turn
pike and by side road-Gen. Shields upon
one and Gel. Williams upon the other.
Cavalry were sent cut last night at l O'Clock
to cut off the retreat of the rebels, but were
detained, and arrived only short time before
the advance on the turnpike.
The Vermont cavalry dashed through
Mount Jackson to prevent the burning of the
bridge across the creek beyond the town.
They captured several rebels in the act OF
firing the bridge. A lieutenant of Ashby's,
who was retreating with the Col. himself was
captured, and Ashby only escaped from wear,
ing the uniform of the Union cavalry.
The bridge across the Shenandoah was for
tunately saved.
Our pursuing forces are in New Market to-
night, without resistance. Major Copeland
and twelve of General Banks cavalry charged
through the town in the rear Of the enemy
Ashby and his men are outside of town.
jackson and his infantry have fallen back
towards Staunton.
WOODSTOCK, April Is, 1862
Our army reached New Market last night.
Officers who have returned hither state that
when they left our advance was FIVE miles be,
yond Mount jackson.
The enemy attempted to make one stand on
bis retreat, but our guns spurred him on. A
Lieutenant O'Brien of Ashby's cavalry, was
captured at honse on the road.
The cavalry company taken yesterday was
commanded by Captain Harper, who was alb
sent /; his three lieutenants were taken.
Our officers believe it possible that an action
will take place to- day. Gen. Shields was in
command of his forces, and gave directions for
a right flank movement, which caused the
enemy's retreat.
