News from Washington.
Gen. Wadsworth Serenaded.
HE MAKES A SPEECH.
SPEECHES OF GOVERNOR BLAIR and
MR.. BOUTWELL,.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-Gen. Wads-
worth was serenaded tonight. He was
assured that his friends came to congratu-
late him because he had received the nomi-
nation as candidate for Governor of the
State of New York, from the truest friends
of the government and the most earnest
supporters of the war;
He said he had not earned this compli-
ment by any public service, for he held no
official position in his native State; but he
claimed for their choice significance and
meaning plainly marked, that he had been
presented for the suffrages of the people
by men who believed that the rebellion
can and ought to be crushed, and who in
tend to hold the country together at what
ever cost of blood, suffering and treasure.
This may require that it may be one
and free country, and as refuge Of men
from all parts of the world; that his nom
nation was made in consequence of his
believing what they believe and think
ing what they think, that we are fight
ing against a base and selfish, but still
powerful, aristocracy, and while we are
prosecuting the war boldly and earnestly
we are bound by solemn obligations of
duty to use our influence against slavery
as far as we can to put the struggle in Or
der to save the lives ofwhite men engaged
in the struggle.
The issue is made up that we are to con-
quer or to be conquered by the aristocracy,
hat oft in of Inf
or eXOrcism.
If we would save ourselves we must
cast out this devil which has corrupted
and disgraced Us from the time of our ma
tional birth.
He was frequently interrupted by ap-
plause.
Gov. Blair, of Michigan, in the course
of his remarks said it had been said that
our armies were to make another circle,
but after this God Almighty forbid The
country requires this battle to be fought
out Immediately, the blows falling thick
and fast.
The time has come when the people
ask only for such leaders as will lead our
gallant armies to success. Men and means
are provided in abundance, and if his adj
vice were asked lie WOulU say, SeIlu W
France for the guillotine and chop off the
heads of all incompetent officers and cow
ards, till we found more with the right
stuff in them. He would like to see the
traitors crushed and destroyed. They
were not entitled to mercy. Abraham
Lincoln, God bless him, has given US
principle on which the war can be fought,
and has struck at the root of mischief.
The internal devil, slavery, should be
taken by the throat, and when it is strang
led, we shall be free forever. He antici-
pated the most beneficial results from the
proclamation.
Ex-Gov. Boutwell, of Massachusetts spoke
in complimentary nomination of Wads
worth, and said in supporting the procla-
nation, the principles of freedom are not
bounded by race All men created in the
image of their maker, are entitled to equal
rights before the land, it is the denial of
this which has compelled us to partake of
the cup of humiliation to the very dregs.

STEAMER ATTACKED ON THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI
Explosion of an Arsenal at Column bus,
Kentucky.
Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune
MEMPHIS, Sept. "a, via CAIRO Goth, 1862.
The steamer Iatan and ram Queen of
the West, on a return trip from below,
were informed by cOlOred man that they
would be attacked on their return. They
were, and had fight, when they found
they were opposed by 1900 men and three
guns. The steamer being riddled, and
several men wounded, passed up the river
after returning the fire with muskets and
howitzers, killing about 100 of the enemy.
Capt. Chas. Leeds, of the Alhambra, was
wounded slightly. Five were wounded on
the Iatan, and some other damage done.
The steamer Eugene on her way down
yesterday was hailed at Fort Randolph by
thirty or forty guerillas, and ordered to
round to. She did so, as she had freight
and two passengers to land there, but did
put out her plank, suspecting foul play.
The clerk went ashore to collect freight,
when he was seized and held, thirty ruff
ans standing there, and ordered the boat
ashore. The captain cried to the engineer
to back out. He did SO. The pilot at
the risk of his life piloted the Eugene out
amid repeated vOlleys, the shots piercing
the pilot house and texas of the steamer
No one was killed. A shot grazed the leg
of Mr.. Bayley, the pilot, and it is wonder
full that many innocent women and chill
dren were not killed by the cowardly
wretches. The Eugene had large list of
passengers and valuable assorted cargo,
which the guerillas had brought wagons
to carry off. The clerk, Dalsel, remains
a prisoner.
The steamer Gladiator is just in from
Helena. Gen. Benton had just returned,
but we have as yet no definite report of
the results of his expedition, if any.
There is much sickness in General Steel's
army.
CAIRO, Sept 80, 1862 Yesterday eve
ming at the arsenal at Columbus, while the
workmen were preparing cartridges, an
explosion took place, causing general
stampede among citizens and soldiers, and
destroying large amount of ordnance,
stores and cotton. No lives were lost.
One hundred thousand dollars worth of
ammunition were destroyed.

WASHINGTON, Sept. "a.
1t has already been stated that General
White is here under arrest. He has asked
an investigation concerning the surrender
of Harper's Ferry. Colonies D'Utassy,
Trimble, and Ford arrived to-day from An
napolis, also under arrest in connection
with this same subject.
Day before yesterday General Julius
White requested court of inquiry in re-
ference to affairs at Harper's Ferry. The

neral White and all the brigade command
ers who were at the Ferry when it was
surrendered are here.
Gen. Whites report has been made to
Gen. Wool. It is said to be document
Of much interest, and throws light upon
this dark spot in the recent campaign.
