So far as respects such declaration, l
further make known that whether it be
competent for me as Commander in Chief
of the army and navy. to declare the
slaves of any State or States free, and
whether at any time in any case it shall
have become necessity Indispensable to
maintenance of the Government to exer-
else such supposed power, are questions
which. under my responsibility. / reserve
to myself, and which cannot feel justi-
6ed in leaving to the decision Of CON-
manders in the field These are totally
different questions from those of police
regulations in armies and camps. On
the sixth day of March last, by special
message, / recommended to Congress the
adoption of joint resolution to be sub
stantially as follows:
/. Rssolred, That the United States
ought to Co Operate with any State which
may adopt a gradual abolishment of
slavery. giving such pecuniary aid to be
used by such State in its discretion to
compensate for the inconveniences, public
and private, produced by sach change OF
system.
The resolution, in the language quoted
above, was adopted by large majorities il
both branches of Congress. and now
stands an authentic. definite aud solemn
proposal of the nation to the States and
people most Immediately interested in the
matter.
To the people of those States would
earnestly appeal I do not argue. ]
beseech you to make the arrangements
for yourselves You cannot. if you would
be blind to the signs OF the times. beg
|Of you calm and enlarged consideration
of them. ranging, if it may be, far above
personal and partisan politics. The pro,
pOsal makes common cause for common
object. casting no reproaches upon any.
Ii acts not the Pharisee. The change il
contemplstes would come gently as the
dews of Heaven, not rending or wrecking
anything. Will you not embrace it? So
much good has not been done by one eff,

NEW YoRK, Oct. PA special to the

current complaints tolthe effect that the
army of the Potomac lacks necessary
supplies, and is unable to advance
against the enemy for the reason that
they. have. been, withheld, are utterly
without foundation. When the matter
was brought to the attention of the Sec
rotary of War, he instituted an investI-'
CATION, which disclosed the fact that
every requisition from the army under
Gen. Mcclellan had been promptly an
swered, and every article promptly de-
hvered, shoes not excepted. This we
are enabled to state distinctly and posi-
lively %f.l
Reports differ respecting the present

Intelligent residents Of Frederick city,
however, protesting to speak on the au-

than the shell remains in front of our

NEw YoRK, October 24-The cores
pondent of the Tribune, writing from
Boliver Heights on the 23d, says more
than half of the army is now under COM
mand of Major-General Burnside. In
addition to his own corps, the 9th, the
commanders Of the I'd and the 18th report
to him. The ID, late Summers, is under.
command of Ma or Gen. Couch. HE
18th, Banks, was assigned three days ago
to Major General Siocum, while all the
corps are under Burnside The three
remaining ones north and west Of us,
the 9Th, LIST and 9th are commanded
respectively by Fitz John Porter, Rey-
nolds and, Eranklinpwho continue to- re-
port directly to General Mcclellan.
The current belief that when the army
of the Potomac moves it viii be in two
bodies,,one eonnanded BY BprnSde8and
the other by Mcclellan, one to take the
enemy in front and the other in flank, rs
probobly only an inference drawn from.
