New YoRK, Eov. l5-The Herald has the
following special dispatch, dated Washington,
Nov IL
BY direction of the President of the United
States, Major Charles j. Whitney, U. s. Cavalry,
is hereby dishonorably dismissed the service for
disloyaty and for using contenptuous and disre-
spectful language against the President OF the
United States.
Major Generals Meade, Newton and Pleasan-
ton, Brigader General Fitzpatrick arrived in town
lastnight.
1t is understood that Gen. Meade proposes,
should the situation of affairs at the front admit,
to attend the Inauguration of the National Gene
terry at Gettysburg. The army will be represent
ed on that occasion bv detachment from each
division of the army engaged in that battle.
Considerable excitement has been occasioned
here in social circles by the discovery OF forgeries
of Paymasters' checks tc a considerable amount
by the young son of leading banker of this city.
His father has advanced an amount equal TO the
sum required by the forger for one or two Pay
masters, but declines to go further.
Orders have been issued to commanddnts of
navy yards to reduce the labor employed fifteen
per cent
The Richmond Enquirer of the 18th says that
the reinforcements under Gen Imboden met the
retreating troops of Gen. Echols near Sweet
Springs. in Monroe county. some forty miles
from Chrstianburg, the nearest point on the Viz
GINA and Tennessee Railroad. and checked the
further advance of General Averills Yankees.
Mors fighting was expected, before the latter
would relinquish their design of destroying the
railroad.
The same paper says passengers by the Fred
ericksburg train report that the larger portion of
the Yankee army had arrived at lsmini. eighteen
miles from Fredericksburg, and that Meade is
rapidly advancing toward that city, where the de
cisiYe contest viii probably take place.

power to enforce their DEGREES. Is an election
carried by such means of any moral force. and
should the candidates thus elected be regarded as

The candidates were all Union men. although
some could not support or approve

SCIENCE in this outrage upon American citizens
and this mockery upon the freedom of elections.
If the American people will yield to such dis

FROM Charleston.

NEW YORK, November I5.-The Baltimore
Americans correspondence from Charleston bar
Dor of the llth. says the monitors Montauk and
Passaic had returned from Port Royal fally re-
paired.
The gunooat Nipsic had arrived.
The bombardment of Sumter goes on without
unusual incident. The rebel fire was not very
serious.
The monitor Patapsco recently threw FIVE
shells into Battery Bee, compelling the rebels to
desert their guns for time.
General Gilmore recently threw three ordinary
shells into the center of Charleston to try the
range OF his guns
The correspondent presumes that Charleston
will not be sheled till the monitors in position
in rebellion roads, when its surrender can be de
manded according to all forms and usuages of
war.
The rebels have at least 2, 600 negroes working
on batteries Sullivan's and James Islands,
but many of them will be found useless when the
great trial comes
The correspondent concludes that the prospect
of early and successful results WAS never more
promising than now. and indistinctly refers to an
experiment recently made so full Of success, that
the rebel distractions no longer to be feared,
stating his firm conviction that We will have
