The mail steamer Dictator, Capt. Rlakeman,

Warren still holds his advanced lines, and
Is digging dirt after sort that will speedily

The rebels made feeble assault, probably q

There are some indications that the rebels

twenty -four hours, and it Is believed they are
carrying down rebel troops lately in the yicin-
ity Of Deep Bottom, on the north side of the
James river. 1t is certain that there are few
rebel troops to be seen now on the north side
OF James river.
The canal across Dutch Gap is going on
prosperously, and the men engaged have not
been molested for several days.
The Dictator brought down about thirty
J ohnnies, who were left at Fortress Monroe,
and also General Barlow, Of New York, who
is sick and on his way home.

FREMONT AND THE BOSTON ADOLF.
TIONISTR

BOSTON, August 26-Several prominent abo-
Htionists, including EleaZier Wright and S. Ct.
Howe, have written to Fremont. Speaking of
the dissatisfaction existing in the Republican
ranks, and ad vising the Baltimore and Cleve
land nominees both to withdraw their names
as Presidential candidates, and that new
convention be called to select other candidates,
Wright and company conclude their letter as
follows:
"Permit us, sir, to ask whether, In case Lin
coin will withdraw, you will do so, and join
YOUR fellow. citizens in an attempt to place an
Admins tration in power on basis as broad as
the country and its needs'
Fremont, under date of Nahant, August 25,
replies at considerable length. He says he does
not feel at liberty to withdraw his name with
out consulting the patriotic party who nomi-
mated HIM, but suggests that direct effort be
made to obtain an immediate understanding
between the supporters OF the Baltimore and
cleveland nominations, in order that the
friends OF both may coalesce and unite upon
an early day for holding such invention. The
following sentence Is taken from Fremont's
letter: Gas much has been said about peace.
Won will excuse me If say what understand
by it, Peace signifies the integral estao lish-
naent of the Union without slavery, because
slavery Is the source of all ourpolitical dissen-
sions, and because the institution itself Is con-
demned by the enlightened, liberal speakers OF
the age. These are to be the essential condi-
tons of peace.

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The most noteworthy sign OF the times is the
eagerness with which the Richmond and other
relationships papers are anticipating that
the approaching Chicago Convention and sub.
sequent U. S. Presidential election lin securing
the triumph Of its nominee) are to insure, past
per adventure, the speedy success of the rebel
lion. They proclaim that the Immediate result
of the defeat OF Lincoln in November, must be
the dissolution of the Union by the assent of
the new administration. They are making it
plain that a vote against Lincoln is to be sim.
ply vote to insure the success OF the re bel
lion. The recent Developments of the partic-
ulars of the conspiracy in the North west, to
IT possible aid the rebellion by force of arms,
under pretence of defending American rights
violated in the Governments measures for the
rebellion's suppression, also involve grave
warnings against the danger OF placing the
conduct Of our public affairs in this crisis in
hands elevated to power by these consprators
and their allies. The elimination of the de-
velopements in question is to be found in the
letter OF General Darlington to VOORHEES,, of
Indiana. convictlng that individual from
papers found in his office-and also his numer.
GUS correspondents, all likely to figure large
ly at Chicago-of conspiracy to defeat the
Governments military measures for the
(among themselves) avowed purpose OF aiding
the rebels in arms against their country.
There can be no doubt that ere November
next every Union man will clearly compre-
bend that to vote to place the administration
OF public affairs in the hands of allies Of
jeff. Davis and Howell Cobb is simply to vote
to bring the war to a disastrous and abortive
close; to vote to divide the United States i'm
mediateIy into three separate confederacies;
and to vote for frequently recurring ard pro-
tracted civil wars between them. Under
these circumstances we have little fear that the
country will be SO mad as to place the Gov
eminent in the keeping Of any man elected by
Voorhees,, Vallandigham, Fernando Wood,
Long, Wall Of New Jersey, and those about
to figure with them in Chicago.

THE CASE OF HAMMOND,

The effort to manufacture popular sympa-
thy for ex-Surgeon General Hammond has
already turned out a dead failure. The few
newspapers apparently anxious at first to
break the force of the Courts judgment rem
dered against him, have evidently cono luded
that the task is hopeless. No man ever had a
more patient and careful trial, nor was there
ever more conscientious or competent mill
tary court assembled. The sympathes of all
were originally strongly with him. because 1t
seemed utterly impossible that one in his posi-
ton could perpetrate the crimes of which
which the Court, after so patient investi-
CATION, adjudged him guilty. His convic.
ton and punishment can hardly fail to have
an excellent effect upon the future of the SER
vice

FINANcIAL.-The New York Commercial
Advertiser Of yesterday evening says:
The amount of coupons presented at the Sub
treasury for anticipatory payment, up to this
morning, is about half million dollars. The
offer OF the Secretary to anticipate payment
OF the interest is rendered, to a large extent,
nugatory by the refusal of the stock board to
recognize any bonds without the coupons at
tached. For this reason it is necessary that
any bond likely to be put upon the market be-
fore the maturity OF the interest should have
the coupons attached, or the value of the cou.
pons in gold accompanying the bonds. The
unsaleableness OF bonds without coupons keeps
certain amount out of the market and so far
tends to strengthen their price. Unless the
board OF brokers should determine to recognize
bonds without the September and November
coupons, the proba bility is that but very small
amount OF the seventeen millions Of interest
now made payable will be collected before ma
turity. The high price of Government stocks
is drawing here large amount from the West
and other sections for sale.
The money market continues steady. There
is more demand from the stock brokers, but the
supply is ample and rates are easy at per
cent. In some instances short loans are made
at per cent, but the rule is per cent
rnere is perceptible increase in the amount
of paper Offering tor discount, and the rates
show a hardening tendency. Buyers discrlm-
mate more closely, and are getting about per
cent. more than q week ago.
