The ritr Porter Investigation.

New YoRK, October 1.-The Board OF
Officers, examining the case Of Gen. Fitz
John Porter, assembled this morning in
the Army Building. Gen. F. 7. Locke,
General Porter's Assistant AdjutAnt Gen
eral, was recalled for examination as to
the strength Of the fifth corps on the 10Th
of August, 1852. The 900 he previously
reported embraced the only effective force
OF August 18th and did not include the
sick, stragglers and some who had been
detailed for other duty.
Gen. Daniel Buttertield was called by
Gen. Portsr's counsel. His testimony was
confirmation Of the evidence Of Col.
Days and Major Earle. He vas In ad-
yanceof the IS corps on the morning OF the
2gth and was ordered out with his brigade
BY Porter TO develope the enemies posi-
ton, but found his troops moving back
and leaving him, and his staff in front, on
asking the reason why the brigade vas
moving without his orders he was in
formed by one OF Gen. Porter's staff Off
cers that Gen. Mcdowell was present and
had oHiered Gen. Porter TO bring hi
troops back.
Gen. Porter's counsel said that before
submitting any further testimony they de
sired To- ctossexamine Captain DOnGfasl
Pope.
The Judge Advocate said Capt. Pop,
vas expected and he did not wish 10 eal
any OF his witnesses until Gen. Porter
counsel had finished their case.

morrow.

We used 10 receive u vast amount oi
communications from Geo. A. Hertwig,
teacher Of German in the Seventh Ward
School, some Of which we published but
most Of which We didn't, who, while he
was intelligent, was generally very i'm
practicable and often very foolish in hi:
suggestions.
We had lost sight of Herwig for long
while past. We thought maybe he had
gone to Utopio, or perhaps to the hills oI
the dead, but We see that he had only
goneias far as Washington City, where he
went, We understand, to get an office from
Carl Schurz. But poor schurz had only q
few offices to dispe nse while the Hertwigs
were innumerable, and therefore there
was nothing left for our irrePressible cor
respondent but to come out in card, by
telegraph, and abuse Schurz, which he does
as follows:
"Schurz may be honest and industrious,
but they are the only favorable things which
can be said Of him as public man. Is he
possessed of q sificiency Of professional
skill and knowledge to earn his living out.
side OF politics? Is he profound original
thinker, and has he character that is
a noble and generous one: He is doubt.
less a fluent talker, but he is q mental
hero. An account OF his vanity, haughti'
ness and sel6shness follows. He is hardly
success as gentleman, and he Is at the
same tine looked upon as the leading Ger
man citizen Of the United States. The
truth is that he trumps himself up as such.
He regards himself Us The really par ex'
eellence AmericaniEed German OF thi:
country, and treats and considers al
other Germans OF Americans as mere
| Dutchmen compared with himself"

GREEcE CONTAINS AGAINST THE EoRrE.
CoxsrAvriixoPLE, October l. safvet
Pasha, Grand Vizier and Minister oi
foreign affairs, has sent q circular to the
Powers calling attention TO the fact that
the Greek Government on authority OF the
reports from its consuls in Thessalv and
Epinis, charges the Porte with stirring
fanatisism Of Albanians against Greece,
and providing them with arms Safvet
Pasha declares these assertions calumnies
communicated TO the cabinets by Greece
for the purpose Of iustiiying her military
preparations, which arr really direct
threat Of aggression against the Ottoman
Empire. He proceeds 10 make counter
charges and says the Porte is daily ap-
prised Of the Vaccinations Of the Greek
agents in ThesSaly and Epinis, to arouse
the peaceable population. Moreover he
states that Greece is preparing to place in
the field within month, an army ot6O,-
600 men, with a reserve Of IS, 900. This
fact conformity with large orders for sup
plies and loan SlO,OO0,OOO, leaves no
doubt ofthe aggressive intention Of Greece.

MolOch in our midst, and make the peopl,
pass through the hres Oipenecution, il nee
essary, in orierto compelfealty to it, and Il
this end they not only levied taxes on tn,
wages of the poorest Of the poor in oul
midst, and exempted the slaves Of the
rich, but they undertook to coerce these
same poor men, by indicting them in the
Courts, as Col. Ben Wilson did in Harri
son county, from expressing any dissent
in regard to the divinity and divine rights
Of the slave oligarchy to lord over US in
this high handed manner.
When the Republican party was COM
PEELED to levy tax on the earnings OF the
people in order to meet the necessities
imposed on the country by the war, which
war was brought on by the Col. Ben VIII
sons OF the country, they were careful to
exempt the wages Of the poor. Hence
they exscted nothing from any man who
earned less than six hundred 4ollan-,
and on the great incomes of the rich they
levied q double tax, viz: 10 per cent in
stead OF ) :, and thus laid as light hand
as possible on the poor.
But this is not all. Among the first acts
of the Republican party, after they had
formed the State Of West Virginia, was to
give the poor school system-something
that the Democratic party would never
have given them to this day and to-day
over 5000 school houses dot the hills and
valleys of West Virginia, where all was
blankness aud darkness in the days OF De-
nocracy. This grand achievement was
accomplished not only without the aid Of
the Ben Wilson's who led the Democracy
then, and who lead them now, but in spite
Of their bitter hostility. So that the poor
men of West Virginia owe them no votes
Their deliverance and elevation are wholly
lue to the Republican party. The Re-
publican party has literally brought the
Of West Virginia up out Of
he house OF bondage into promised
and. Therefore, we say that working
men owe the Democratic leaders of the
Ben Wilson stripe no votes in this contest.
