President Lincoln on War Matters.

In the Mcdowell Court OF Inquiry, yester-
day, Gen'l Hitchcock was called and testified
at length relative to the force left for the pro
lection of Washington when nlcCleans army
started for the Peninsula. In the course OF
his testimony the following letter from the
President was laid before the court.
WASHINGTON April 8, 1862
Mai,r General NIcClellan-My Dear Sir
Your dispatches complaining that you are
not properly sustained, while they do not Of
fend me, pain me very much.
Blenkers division was withdrawn from you
before YOU left here, and you knew the press
ure under which I did it, and, as I thought,
acouiesced in Uncertainty not without reluc-
tance.
After YOU left I ascertained that less than
20, 900 unorganized men, without single field
battery, were all you designed to be leftfor the
defence Of Washington and Manassas juno
ton; and part of this even was to goto General
Hookers old position.
Gen Banks corps, once designed for Man
assas Junction. was divided and tied up On the
Fne Of Winchester and Strasburg and could
net leave it without again exposing the Upper
Potomac and Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
This presented (or would present. when Nc
Dowell and Sumner should be gone, q eat
temptation for the enemy to turn back from the
Rappahannock and sack " Arlington.
Ny explicit directions that Washington
should, by the judgment Of all commanders OF
corps, be left entirely secure, had been en1nely
neglected. It was precisely this that drove
me to detain Mcdowell. ! do not forget that
| was satisfied with your arrangement to leave
Banks at Manassas Junction. but when that
arrangement was broken up, and nothing was
substituted for it. Of course | not satisfied:
! I was constrained to substitute something Tor

And now, allow me to ask, do YOU really

Ayia Manassas Junction, to this city: TO be
entirely open, except what resistance could De
