W AbhAAdIoAi august Il.
It already becomes apparent thst the
mode of recOnstructing the Union is to
form the main question in the next Con-
gress, and the dividing line between Un-
ion men and the opposition.
The court Of inquiry, Major General
Hitchcock, President, is investigating the
surrender of Winchester, and General
Milroy/s conduct there.
General Halleck opposes Rosecrans' sf-
fort to secure orders for the organization
of a cavalry and mounted infantry force,
to operate against guerrillss in the south
west.
Rosecrans has sent official letters to
Hslleck and Stanton, and an official one to
the President, representing the urgent
necessity of raising such force.
Senators Cowan and Harris and General
MOrehead are now here, and warmly favor
it, and are expected to make an appeal to
President Lincoln on the subject to-mor-
row.
Governor Tod has arrived here, but the
great convocatiOn of distinguished men
we were to have, have not accompanied
him. In short the whole story about his
portentiOus business, and the speculatiOns
based on it in the tory New York papers
are farce. He is here to see about pay
ing the militia called out during the Nor
gan raid.

LEXINGTON, August II.
The presence Of the General-in-C Chief
among the Quartermasters, COmmissaIies
and contractors, as might be anticipated,
has given extraordinary impetus to those
departments, and matters look quite prom
Using. General Burnside has gone to Camp
Nelson, and it is certain that the fitting
out of the entire army will not be prOcras-
tinated DR.. Watson is sorting out the
convalescents and sending many Of them
to the field. tEi
Lexington just now, is crowded to over
flowing, and the railroads are busy day
and night Information from the Gaps
brings no news Of rebel forces. The ru-
mOrs Of Forests presence on the Cumber-
land are not true. -
Colonel Kautz, of the Second Ohio Cav
airy, is appointed Chief of Cavalry on
HartsufFs staff, vice Colonel WalkLr,
whose regiments term of enlistment will
expire shortly. General sturgis is Chief
Of Cavalry of the Department.
MajOr-General Rosecrans has issued an
order that no citizen shall pass to Nash
vile, or other points in Tennessee.

JoHE W. KE1sLEY, se.'y.

In connection with this it may be men
toned that when the COpperhead Committee
wanted to have placards printed on Sunday
for the Copperhead meeting on Monday last,
the only job office they could find open in
the city was the LEADERS, and the Copper
head placards were printed at the LEADER
eeto hliahmank Ha-aLI-
The writer Of the above is much mis-
taken. The LEADER Job Room was
not open on Sunday. It is true
that on Sunday night between eleven
and twelve O'Clock, Vsllandighamer came
came up and employed two Ofthe typos to get
out hand-bilI, without the knowledge of the
proprietor. If the proprietor had been pre-
sent when the work was ordered, it WeuId
have been declined.
When we consider that one of the editors
and proprietors Of the Herald took the mem
bsrs of the typographical Union in car
chartered for the occasion, one Sunday after
noon to Hsltnorth's Garden, where they had
q high old time, it comes with a very ILL
grace to publish the above malignant para
grsph, false as it iS.

very little rest. Occasionally there has
been very sharp and continuous firing, and
on one or two occasions the Wagnerites
have responded vigorously for 3 few mo-
ments, as if enraged at Che effect Of our
shells, but the principal shelling is from
Fort Sumter, Fort johnson and its out

TEE Sc HOPE1A.n Our attention has been
directed to q Card published in Wednesday
evenings Plain Dealer BY the proprietor of
the beer concert hall on Center street,
called the Cleveland Opera HOnse," in
answer to the LEADERS, WsIl-grounded stric-
lures upon the place. The assertion that
we were gratifying "sPlssn" because the
concern did not advertise with us, is foolish
in the extreme. The sum paid per week by
such an establishment is paltry one and its
collection prseariOus at the best. If pa
per had enough Of such patronage it would
die of starvation.
The reason the Z" Opera House, does not
advertise il the LEADER, is because We have
refused to puff the concern, the ridiculous
assertion Of the manager to the contrary not
WithStanding.
Under former management when it was
carried on pretty much as it is noW-On the
ten cents admission plan-a place of resort
for the roughs and abandoned
both male and female, the manager
called on us and had the GOODNESS to request
us to notice editorially his deIectable institu-
tion-ssying he would "pstroniEs us &" and
give US " dead-head" tickets. His request
was declined, He then commenced whining
at as, and saying that the Herald editors
agresd to give him all the notice be wanted,
and that not a night passed but some Herald
editors were in attendance, and he thought
that this ought to satisfy US in regard to the
respectability of his establishment We
could not see it in that light.
With regard to dead heads, no editor or
other responsible person connected whistle
LEADER has ever been inside of the "0pers
House" since it was opened, nor have they
ever solicited free admission for themselves
or others. They have too much respect for
themselves to be caught in such a place, and
would not encourage others to disgrace them
selves by going there. If the manager has
admitted persons claiming to be entitled to
E" dead head" privileges on the ground of
connection with the LEADER, he has been de-
csiEed.
We bear no personal spite against the
manager and only performed what We con-
sidered to be our duty in exposing the char
scter of the place which he keeps. Our in
formation was derived from a number of
persons who have attended % Opera" there,
all Of whom agree as to the vuIgari-
ity and positive indecency of some portions
of the performances. We think the City
Marshal has been derelict in duty that he has
not devoted little more attention to the in
sitution on Center street.
We hope the little airing which we have
given the Opera House" will at least cause
it to reform some of its bad manners and
adopt more respectable standard Of merit
than it has heretofore done.
P. S. Since the above was written, we
were shown 3 programme Of the "Opera
House." which announces that only the edi-
tors Of the Herald and Plain Dealer were ad-
mitted free. This accounts fer the Herald
d defending the Opera House from the excori-
alton Of the Leader, as it did last evening.

He reports that there are no troops in
Richmond, but the streets are filed with
rebel officers. He saw no gunboats in the
harbor at Richmond but knows they are
building, and does not know how far they
were advanced. The DR.. was in Richmond

Governor Tod Of Ohio, Senator COWan

coin this morning. Several gentlemen
we're also present and took part in the
conversation. The purpose Of the inter
AieW relates to an important military de-
monstration. It would not be proper to
repeal what it was, OF the commanders who
were proposed to undertake it. but it was
earnestly pressed and several Of the gem
tlemen insisted that it would inhict tre-
mendous blow upon the rebellion.
It is understood that other loyal Govern
ors Of northern and western States have
had the proposed movement under eonsid-
Grafton and have written to the War De-
psrtment urging that it should be made
forthwith.
The Cabinet will take up the matter to-
morrow when q decision will be made
