June 30. C. C. Fulton, one of the proprietors and editors of the Baltimore American, was committed to Fort McHenry by order of the Secretary of War. Lord Brougham made a speech in the House of Lords concerning the civil war in the United States. His lordship was informed that horrible cruelties and crimes were committed on both sides; he deprecated these barbarities, but he threw no imputation on the character of the American people, for it was incident to and inseparable from civil war that horrible crimes should occur. He thought that neither England nor France should interfere. But all must have felt equally anxious that the conflict should cease. Those who were most friendly to America were the most anxious that this should take place, and he had ever been most friendly to her. If war was to go on, it would produce a state of things worse than American slavery. The whites would suffer more by the war than ever the negroes suffered under the most cruel masters. It

in defeating the rebels with great loss. They left sixty-five dead on the field. The loss on the Union side was forty-one killed, wounded, and missing. President Lincoln, in reply to seventeen Governors of loyal States, who signed an address requesting him to call on the people of their respective States for more men for the Union army then in the field, informed them that he had decided to call into the service an additional force of three hundred thousand men. --(Doc. 143.) C. C. Fulton was this day unconditionally released from Fort McHenry. A skirmish occurred near Morning Sun, Tenn., between the guard of a Union wagon-train of Gen.

I appeal to you for a hearing and prompt release in behalfon of the confidence with which you were treated. The publication of facts obtained from Washington under such circumstances is a high military crime. Respectfully, E. S. Sanford. Military Superintendent. To the dispatch from Col. Sanford Mr. Fulton replied as follows: Colonel Sanford: Sir --The dispatch I sent to New York was a private one, addressed to Mr. Craig for his information as to whether he desired to receive the report I was preparing for the press.

I am dissatisfied generally. Nobody but McClellan can command this army." Found guilty. This warrior was dishonorably discharged from the service, and sentenced to forfeit all his pay and emoluments. The anticipated attack on Charleston. A correspondent of the Baltimore American (C. C. Fulton, the proprietor,) writing from Port Royal, S. C., gives the following about the "coming" attack on Charleston: The first intelligence received at the North from the anticipated demonstration on Charleston will doubtless come to you by way of Richmond. In crediting these statements, whatever they may be it must be borne in mind that Beauregard is in command. There will probably be iron clad reconnaissances in the lower harbor for two or three days prior to the main attack. After ac

Herron has left St. Louis for below with a large force of troops. He left St. Louis with his full Staff on Thursday evening last. The attack on Charleston — official Inquiry. In the Court of Inquiry to-day, in the case of Engineer Stimers's charge preferred against Admiral Dupont, C. C. Fulton, of the Baltimore American, was the principal witness.--He testified that Mr. Stimers informed him he visited all the Monitors on the morning of the 8th of April, at one o'clock, reported to the Admiral that they were all in a condition for immediate service, and that the Admiral told him he had decided not to renew the fight.--The decision created great surprise among the junior officers. He heard Stimers say he believed the Admiral would have renewed the fight if he had not been influe

osure should be forced upon them. The exchange question — the stoppage of the supplies for Yankee prisoners at Richmond — the Senate on the exchange — Butler to conduct it. The stoppage of supplies to the Yankee prisoners in Richmond has again turned Yankee attention to the subject of exchange, which would have jain quiet until both sides were equal in prisoners again. The following telegram from Butler, at Fortress Monroe, announced the fact: Fortress Monroe, Dec. 12, 1863. C. C. Fulton, Baltimore American: Please give notice that the rebel authorities decline receiving any more packages or provisions for the Union prisoners, so that parties interested may refrain from forwarding any more goods to this point.

Hatch, who was sent from Richmond to meet him. He <

nkee prisoners at Richmond — their treatment. The New York World has the following editorial on the subject of the treatment of the prisoners who are now held in Richmond. The fifty Union surgeons we think are myths: The statement of Mr. C. C. Fulton, proprietor of the Baltimore American, which we publish this morning, respecting the treatment of our prisoners at Richmond will be a sensible relief to their friends at the North. It seems that the country has been imposed upon respecting es not wish an exchange of prisoners, and that it has so conducted matters as to convey to the country the impression that the rebels were ill treating their prisoners whereas the parties really to blame have been themselves. The statements of Mr. Fulton, who is an ardent supporter of the Administration, are of a character which should command the prompt attention of Congress. If anything is to be done for our prisoners, it must be in spite of the efforts of the Administration to compel them t
