The Late Attack on Charleston.

The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Joa1'nat, who was present at the
engagement in Charleston Harbor, says:
The evidence multiplies that we came
very near taking Fort Sumpter in the at
tack in April. Intelligence has been re-
ceived from one who has been in the Fort
since the attack. He says that the wall
on the northeastern face is cracked from
top to bottom; that the last shots went
through the wall, clear across the area
to the opposite walls; that on the morn
ing after the fight, pieces of canvass were
placed over the breaches to hide them from
oar sight; that the officer in COM
mand telegraphed to Beauregard during
the engagement that he would be COM
PEELED to surrender. A portion of this is
corroborative of the testimony of Captain
Ammen, who was confident that his last
shots went completely through the wall.
1t was apparent to all Of us who watched
the fight, that after the first halt hour the
fire Of the fort perceptibly slackened, and
almost ceased on the northeastern face.
Admiral Dupont evidently lost golden
portunity when he decided not to renew
the fight on the following day.

The President, General Haileck and
General EOOker-.-VVhO is in Conn
naand!

The Washington correspondent Of the
Springfield Republican writes:-
1t is difficult to say who it is that COM
mands in this vicinity. Hooker is so near
that he is in daily consultation with Hal
leck and while it is undoubtedly true
that Hooker commands the so-called
''Army of the Potomac, yet Halleck has
an active control of military movements
in this vicinity. AS for that matter, so
has Mr.. Lincoln. He oversees everything.
Those persons who suppose that he con-
tents himself with an easy-going, story
telling life are very much mistaken. He
never takes his breakfast until he has
made visit to the War Office He visits
the War Department several times day,
and acQuaints himselffu fully with everything
that is going on. However it may be
with the other departments, this one is
not independent of Mr.. Lincoln. | have
good reasons for believing that the Presi-
dent does not control either Halleck or
Hooker, except upon very rare occasions,
but nothing Of Importance occurs of mill =,
tary nature without his sanction He is
consulted almost every hour by Mr. Stan
ton, by General Halleck or by General
Hooker; and in this military business the
President exhibits good deal of ability
more, | sometimes think, than Hallecll
does

The Vallandfgham Committee and
the Prestdent--.The Interview at
the White House, and the Cores
pOndence.

The Ohio State Journal has facet;ous
account of the interview between the Val
landigham Committee and the President,
which, we presume, from it's circumstan-
tial tone, to be founded upon the facts.
The Journal says the committee opened
upon the President And:
He stood his ground He even smiled; and
after they had exhausted all their ammunition
and burned out all their sky-rockets, the Pres
ident blandly asked them what they wanted,
and who sent them. At this, or something
else, Judge BARLEY, the spokesman, was great
ly staggered! and found, upon examination,
that he and his followers had forgotten their
credentials; the resolution Of the Copperhead
Convention appointing them, had been left at
home in the Crisis office. They presumed,
however, the President had read them? No,
he had not noticed themi He therefore re-
quested the embassy to put their ideas and
wants in writing, and the matter should re-
ceive appropriate attention.
So the case was submitted to the Presi
dent in writing, and the Washington cor
respondent of the New York World gives
the following account of the Presidents
reply:
The President replies to the Vallandigham
Committee from Ohio, in long letter in du-
plicate. The tenor of it is that Mr.. Vallandig-
ham should be released, and will be, if the
Committee will indorse three propositions to
this effect: First, that rebellion exists, and
that it is his, the Presidents duty to put it
down; second, that the Committee will use
their influence in crushing it; and, third, that
they will see that the army employed for the
purpose. well paid fed and clothed. If the
Committee. or majority of them, indorse
these propositions, and so signify, by indorsing
the duplicate letter to that effect, and return it
to the President, then Mr.. Vallan9igham will
be released The Committee are indignant at
the reply, and are to meet in New York to-
morrow to frame rejoinder.
The World, of the 1st, says editorially:
Mr.. Vallandigham has been saved from his
friends by the inconcevable faulty of the Pres-
| dent. The committee who went to ask Mr..
| Lincoln, as an act of grace, what history and
| the people will compel from him as an act OF
| repentance have been themselves insulted with
trivial and indecent partisan letter in reply to
| their elaborate communication.
The committee might have been as usefully
| employed perhaps in assisting their own and
| Mr.. Valandgham's State to prepare its defen-
| ses against danger to which it has been eX-
| posed by the incapacity OF the Administration:
but if they have, achieved nothing else by their
| trip to Washington, they have at least afforded
the President fresh opportunity to show the
| country precisely what value he sets upon the
| principles of liberty and the dignity of his own
exalted office.

why Hooker was Removed.

The following solution for the reason for
HooKER's removal, is as probable as any
we have seen, and may be the immediate
occasion for it, but we suspect the real
reason dates back to Charlottesville, and
includes the subsequent acts of the Gen.
eral:
MARYLAND HEIGHTS, June 2S.-We were WIS.,
tied here yesterday by Gen. Hooker, accompa-
MED by Brigadier General Warren. The OBJ
ject of this visit was to enquire into the pro-
prety OF evacuating the Heights. He sent for
Col. Reynolds, our able engineer, and asked
him what the object was in holding the Heights.
The Colonel replied he had often asked the
same questions, and never got satisfactory an
swer. Hooker then issued an order that the
place should be evacuated by Z o'clock next
morning that such guns as could not be taken
away should be destroyed and the stores remov-
ed. Immediately afterwards, he informed Gen.
Halleck of what he had done, whereupon he
received dispatch cOuntermanding the order,
and saying the Notifications had cost too much
to be given up, unless under the most urgent
necessity. He considered Harper's Ferry to
be the key to the present and future opera
tons OF the Army of the Potomac. Hooker's
comment upon this was natural enough:
"What is the use in holding on to the key af.
ter the door Is smaShed:" While on his way
back from here, he received an order from
Washington, removing him from command,
and placing Gen. Meade in his stead.
The following story is told by the Wash
ington correspondent of the Philadelphia
Inquirer. We give it for what it is worth {:
General Meade has been assigned the Army
of the Potomac in place of Gen. Hooker re-
lieved at this own request. The quarrel is said
to date back to the battle of Charlottesville
after which Hooker asked for troops to replace
those who would be called away on account of
their term of service expiring. This was prom
ised them. The troops were designated, but
some Interference prevented their coming to
him. 1t is said that the reasons assigned was
that North Carolina would have to be evacuat-
ed, which would loo kbad abroad"

THE SIEGE OF PORT HUDSON

New ORLEANS, June 27.-It was gen.
orally expected that another assault upon
the Port Hudson works would be made
last Saturday. The order, however, was
not given till evening, and the assault
commenced at day break Sunday morning.
The attack was on the right, principally
by Weitzel's and Growers men, and des-
perate attempt was made to carry the up
per portion of the confederate works. The
center of Gen. Banks line also opened an
attack under Generals Augur and Dwight.
This, however, was feint merely, design
ed as diversion to weaken the defense
against the federal attack on the right. 1t
was unsuccessful, for the confederates
concentrated their forces to repel Weitzel
and Grover, and after a short but sharp
engagement the federals were repulsed
with an admitted loss in killed and wound.
ed of not less than seven hundred men.
The term "repulse," is, I believe, tech
nical, but it was, if anything at all, dis
| astrOus defeat.
While the assault was in progress five
companies Of the Metropolitan cavalry, on
picket duty mile and half from General
Banks headquarters, were suddenly sur
rounded by detachment of confederate
cavalry (probably some of Wheeler's men
from Clinton), and before they could draw
a sabre or fire a carbine they were sum-
marily gobbled and trotted away as pris-
oners. It is said that half dozen out of
these four hundred men managed to trot
the other way and to reach their camp in
safety. There is no doubt about the cap
ture of the rest, with their accoutrements
and horses.

The Baltimore Club House was on Mon
day taken possession Of by Gen. Schenck,
for reasons detailed in the following order:
HEADQUARTERS MIDDLE DEPARTMENT,
8TH ARMY CORPS, BALTIMORE, June q, '63.)
SPECIAL ORDFR.-There is an association eX-
isting in the city of Baltimore known as the
Maryland Club" The meetings of this body,
and of those who frequent its rooms, or are en-
tertained by its members. take place at build
ing on the corner of franklin and Charles
streets. Departing from the original character
and purposes of its institution, this Club has
for a long time past degenerated into resort
for those who are disaftected towards the Gov
eminent, hostile to its legally constituted au-
thOrities, and who give cOuntenance, encOur-
agement and aid to the unnatural and causeless
rebellion by which our institutions and national
integrity are sought to be overthrown. So
dangerous and mischievous an association can
not be permitted longer to maintain this atti-
tude in loyal community. The Maryland
Club is therefore suspended, and its house of
meeting taken possession of and closed.
In the execution of the order, the names of
all persons found in the building, and of all
who belong to the association, and of all who
habitually frequent it will be taken, and an in
ventOry will be made of the property and rec
ords or papers of the association, and the same
held subject to future orders.

This road, although comparatively un.
known to the generality of our readers, is
destined to be offgreat Importance to Mil

to our trade with the rapidly growing
Northwest. it ~. "a
The route of the proposed road runs
from Minneapolis south, through Faribault
to the Iowa State Line-about one hum
dred and twelve miles in length. 1t ira
verses as fertile and productive a region
as there is in the Northwest, along it's
whole extent, and it is a section whose re-
sources have not as yet begun to be de-
veloped, although producing now to an
extent not generally realized.
At Faribault, the road connects with
the Winona and st. Titus Road, over
which its traffic will be brought to Vino
ma and thence to this city.
1t had grant of $500 acres of land,
TO be selected within fifteen miles of the
line OF the road. 1t has been found, how
ever, that there are only 10000 acres
within these limits open to selection; but
the company will undoubtedly, in accord
ance with the spirit Of the grant, be allowed
to select the additional 200, 900 acres from
other portions Of the State. The land along
the whole line is of exceeding richness, so
that the local traffic must be large. while
the through trade from Missouri, illinois,
Iowa and Wisconsin, to Northern Mime
sofa and the Upper Mississippi, will take
this route, and will grow in few years to
magnitude equalling that of almost any
of the great leading lines of the West.
The books are to be closed when the

lieve that, as to the amount unsubscribed,
the difficulty is not due to any lack of dis
position to subscribe, but as to who shall
be allowed that privilege.

Americans who think it essential to their
freedom and happiness that their Union
should exist unimpaired, but such de-
monstration Of the force and purpose of
the South would open the eyes OF the Penn
ssylvania, New York and Boston capital
lsts-nay more, it would open the roads to
the cities which supply the means for car
rying on the war, by which they thrive
and fatten. Such a proof of strength
would be appreciated by Europe also.
General Lee was not successful in his in
vaslon OF Maryland and will not repeat his
venture with the object which led him
across the Potomac on that occasion. Init
he may be obliged, on political and mill
tary grounds, to carry this war into the
enemy's country, Notwithstanding his
known dislike to an aggressive attitude,
and the war will then assume most in
teresting aspect.

Captain John s. Cady.

The following notice Of Captain JOHN
S. CADY, recently killed by the Indians,
we find in the New York Eoening Post:
John S. Cady. whose death is announc-
ed in the article given below, was resi-
dent of this city until the year 1858.
Those of our citizens who had business
transactions with the Clerk of Arrears dur
ing the first term of Augustus Purdy in
that bureau, will remember the modest
department and prompt business habits of
a young man whose age was at that time
about twenty years, and who was the con-
fidential assistant of the head of the bu-
reau. The health of Mr.. Cady admonish-
ed him of the necessity of selecting an en-
ployment which would give him more eX-
ercise in the open air. After qualifying
himself to discharge the duties of sur
veyor, under the teachings of John J. Ser
rell, of this city, he established himself at
Anoka, in the State of Minnesota.
When the call was made for volunteers,
young Cady enrolled his name with most
of those of his neighbors, and was selected
as captain of the company which was rails
ed in the vicinity of his residence. When
the officers and men of the company were
in daily expectation of joining the Union
army at the South, their destination was
changed by the murders perpetrated by
the Sioux Indians in the various settle
ments of the white population on the bor-
ders of the State. Captain Cady was re-
quired to march with his company to the
protection of the exposed settlements and
the defence of the military posts on the
frontier.
The age of Mr.. Cady at the time of his
death is said to be twenty-five. At this
early age he has furnished evidence to the
satisfaction Of those who knew him best,
that he possessed in an eminent degree all
the essential qualifications of good citi-
zen and true patriot.
The fond hopes Of his friends have been
crushed, and career of great usefulness
has been brought to an untimely end by
the sad event recorded below
