~ Gen, Fremont writes to Maj Gen.
Schenck, Chairman of the House Military
Commute, that he requested to be relieved
from the army of Virginia because he ''re>
garded the order which reduced him to
serve under Gen. Pope as an unmerlted in
suit" that since then he has been waiting
orders; that he was once promised a COM
mand but did not get it; that he has kept
part of his staff, to have their services when
he should be recalled to active service; and
that he has drawn his pay, "since the close
of the last session Of Congress, to be ap piled
where it might alleviate distresses resulting
from the war, and it has been used accord
ingly."

ca A written statement has been pre-
scented to the Secretary of War by citizen
of Maryland, cousin by marriage of the
rebel General Lee, at whose house the latter
stopped during the battle Of Antietam, to the
effect that the night after the battle Mcclellan
had a private interview within the rebel lines
with Lee, when the latter told him his army
was then crossing the Potomac. This person,
with twelve others, who are said to be cogni-
zant Of the facts, have been summoned be-
fore the Committee on the Conduct of the
War to give evidence on the subject.

~ The Radicals" of St. Louis held a
meeting on the evening Of March I'd, at
which they adopted the following resolutions:
Rssolsed, That in the person of Major
General John G. Fremont we find all those
qualities which are requisite for the first mag
istrate of great and powerful republic and
we hereby recommend and nominate him as
fit candidate for the Presidency
Rssoloed. That great national mass con-
vention of the friends of Gen. Fremont be
held at st. Louis, May 10th, 1864, for the
purpose of completing a thorough organize
ton of the radical masses all over the Union
Reso7red That committee of five from
Missouri and one from each State of the
Union, be appointed to make the necessary
preparations for the National Convention.
Also committee of five to place themselves
in direct communication with the friends of
the Radical cause all over the Union.
The radicals. are more jealous than dis
Greet in this tipg.forward Fremont. They
should be willing to abide the result of the
Baltimore Convention. Nothing Is to be
gained by this factional spirit. 1t will injure
Fremont's chances of becoming the Union
nominee.
