BY TELEGRAPH
Report Of Genera1.in. CHIEF.

WASHINGTON, Dee 1.-THE Report of
the General in Chief is q very lengthy doc
ument, containing a grand summary of
military operations since his last annual
report. Referring to the Department of the
Potomac, the General says Burnside's pro-
posed change OF base WAS not approved by
him. Burnside consented to cross his army
by the foros of the Upper Rappahannock,
and then move down to seize the. Heights
of Fredericksburg, while small force was
to be sent north of the River to enable the
Government to reopen the river. This
plan was assented TO, but not approved
Burnside, instead of crossing the Kappa
hammock by the Fords, as he was expected
to do, marched his whole army down to the
north bank of the River. Lees army in
the neantime moved down, to the south
bank OF the river, at this time fordable q
few miles above town, and Sumner asked
permission to cross and occupy the heights,
but was refused, and no attempt was made
TO effect passage till December 1lth, by
winch time Lees army had been concen-
trated. 1t is alleged that the defeat which
we suffered soon after, resulted from neg
iect to forward pontoon train from Wash
lngton, whereas the pontoons at the time
were at Berlin. The delay, therefore, was
unavoidable, and Oh Investigation of mat
tiers, Burnside pronounced it so.
Speaking of affairs in Grants Depart
ment, the General in Chief says it has been
alleged that Grant positively disobeyed the
instructions of his superiors. 1t is hardly
necessary TO say that Grant never disobey-
ed an order-moreover he has never COM
planned that Government did not furnish
him with all the means and assistance in
its power, to facilitate the execution CT any
plans he saw fit to adopt
The General suggests Us the rebel army
lives upon the country through which it
passes, that the Federals do the same as it
facilitates rapidity of movement. Our
commanders in rebel States hardly ever
find supplies, and in the border States it is
difficult to distinguish between friends and
enemies.
In regard to suffers he says the entire
abolition of the system would rid the army
Of the incumbrance of suffers wagons on
y march and the nuisance of suffers stalls
and booths in camp. 1t would improve
the discipline and efficiency OF the troops
in many ways, and particularly by reno
wing from camps the prolific evils of drum
kenness. 1t is not difficult for suffers to
act the part of spies, informers, smugglers,
and contraband traders.
The General thinks the Court Martial q
too cumbrous proceeding for the battle
field, and suggests some more speedy pun
iShment.
He suggests that the inspector Generals
Department be merged in the Adjutant
Generals Department.
He recommends several reformations in
relation to the organization of regiments,
br.gades and corps.
He claims that the cartel for exchange of
prisoners has been violated, relative to col
ored soldiers.

Gov. Letcher Spreads himself.

New YORK, Dec. 14.-Gov. Iletcher's
message to the rebel Legislature of Vir-
GINA concludes as follows:
look at the picture on all sides, and it
presents hopeful and encouraging features
If we are only true to ourselves, to the
cause, land to the country, we cannot be
overthrown. Is there man who doubts
the result: OF the struggle. If there be such
a one he is traitor at heart, who deserves
to be mathematical OF cast out from
among us. No State has been more loyal,
more faithful, more devoted. None has
contributed more literally in means and
men; none has barred their breasts more
boldly or defantly to the storm, and none
has sent her reapers to the harvest of death
with more of the selfsacrificing devotion
than the commonwealth of Virginia! She
enlisted for the war, after full considera
ton and just appreciation Of all the con-:
sequences which were to follow the Separa-
ton, and she will be true to the end. She
will never sue for peace, because she did
propose for compromise, for she struggles
only for her rights, for liberty, and indie
pendence. She will, as becomes the Mo-
Their of States, stand up boldly and hurl
her screams and defiance in the face of her
foes, until they come to our termsl She
Will never consent to q treaty of peace
which disnembers her own territory, nor
VIII she consent to 9 treaty which does not
recognize fully the Southern Confederacy
She knows what is due to her own dignity
and character, and she knows what is due
to the Confederacy, and her duty will be
performed with scrupulous fidelity. Kneel-
Ing around the altar of their country. her
sons Will swear allegiance to her and ndel-
ity to the Confederate government, and
tneir prayers will ascend to heaven for
blessings on Virginia and the Southern
COnfederacy

NASHVILLE, Dec. I5.-There is rumor
here, that Gen. Sheridan, in command Of q
column, in pursuit of Longstreet, overlook
the rebel rear-guard east Of Knoxville, and
sustained heavy repulse, in which Gen.
Sheridan is said to have been badly woun-
ded. The rumor is not generally credited
at General Fosters headquarters, but it is
traced to several distinct sources and un-.
less corroborated by dispatches from Chat
tanooga. of this date, the story may be con-
sidered as false.
Gen. Palmer resigned the command of
the 14th corps, and had reached Bridgeport
on his way home, when he received an or

ton not having been accepted.

From WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l5.-The star fur

LEGATION: kilograms were received here
last evening from Knoxville up to yester-
day morning. Gen. Foster had assumed
command of the troops lately under Burn
side and the latter had departed from the
city for Cincinnati. Ali was then quiet in
the vicinity of Knoxville. 1t was stated
there on the authority of scouts and Mosby
that most of Longstreet's artillery trains
had fallen into the hands of our pursuing
forces, but this lacked confirmation. The
regiment with which the pursuit is now
being made is so far distant from the tele-
graph as to make it difficult to verify such
statements. -
Gen. Butler and a member of the Santa
ry Commission now at Fortress Monroe,
have telegraphed to the Government here
that the rebel authorities have stopped the
distribution Of supplies sent to the Union
prisoners in their hands. We are notified
that up to this time nothing had reached
Washington that anything like special
rebel notice had been communicated to
either Gen. Butler or Gen. Meredith. The
fact that Mr.. Guild, the Rebel Commission
er of exchange, had promptly replied yes
terday or the day before to Gen. Buffers
tender of vaccine matter to be used among
the Union prisoners, that it would be dis
posed of promptly, as requested, leads us
to hope there may be mistake,
