intended to send the residue of McDowell's force also to join you as s speedily as possible. Fremont had a hard fight, day before yesterday, with Jackson's force at Union Church, eight miles from r Jackson at Gordonsville; others that his force is at Port Republic, Harrisonburg, and Luray. Fremont yesterday reported rumors that Western Virginia was threatened; and Gen. Kelly, that Ewell was advancing to New Creek, where Fremont has his depots. The last telegram from Fremont contradicts this rumor. The last telegram from Banks says the enemy's pickets are strong in advance at Luray. TFremont contradicts this rumor. The last telegram from Banks says the enemy's pickets are strong in advance at Luray. The people decline to give any information of his whereabouts. Within the last two days, the evidence is strong that, for some purpose, the enemy is circulating rumors of Jackson's advance in various view to conceal the real point of attack. Neither McDowell, who is at Manassas, nor Banks and Fremont, who are at Middiletown, appear to have any accurate knowledge on the subject. A letter tran

Fremont was relieved, at his own request, from serving under one whom he regarded as his junior, and the command of his corps assigned to Gen. Sigel.

led session of Congress had been held; public opinion on the Slavery question had made very considerable strides; when Gen. Fremont, on assuming civil as well as military control of the State of Missouri, issued the memorable General Order, See it, though it was very generally sustained or acquiesced in by that journals supporting the War, President Lincoln wrote Gen. Fremont that he must withdraw or modify it. This, Gen. F. declined to do, unless openly directed by his superior; hence the following order: Washington, D. C., Sept. 11, 1861. Maj.-Gen. John C. Fremont:: Sir:--Yours of the 8th, in answer to nine of the 2d inst., is just received. Assured that you, upon the ground, could better judge of the necessities of your poseen instructed not to permit any such persons to come within their lines. Maj.-Gen. Halleck, soon after succeeding Gen. Fremont in command in Missouri, issued his famous Order no. 3, which sets forth that It has been represented that importan

See Vol <*> pp. 592-3. But the Rebel element of her population, though over-powered, was still bitter, and was stirred into fitful activity by frequent emissaries from compatriots serving with Price, Marmaduke, and other chiefs, who, with their Governor, Claiborne F. Jackson, who died in Arkansas, At Little Rock, Dec. 6, 1862. and his Lieutenant, Thomas C. Reynolds, who thenceforth assumed the role of Confederate Governor, invincibly hoped, and intrigued, and s

f horses, small arms, &c. It is not probable that the force he took out of Missouri, with its armament, was half so effective as that he brought into it. Gen. Grant, in his all-embracing report, says: The impunity with which Price was enabled to roam over the State of Missouri for a long time, and tie incalculable mischief done by him, shows to how little purpose a superior force may be used. There is no reason why Gen. Rosecrans should not have concentrated his forces and beaten and driven Price before the latter reached Pilot Knob. As the concentration hero suggested, in the face of a formidable army of veterans, mainly mounted, and moving with great celerity, would, if practicable. have enabled the Missouri Rebels to call out the oath-bound members of their lodges and therewith take possession of a large portion of the State, the justice of this criticism is not incontestable. A like judgment was passed on Fremont in 1861; though not by so high a military authority.
