. The weather is fine, the roads good, and the army in the best of splits. Capt Bartletie, of the 1st Main cavalry, was killed a few days ago by a shell. Twelve o'clock midnight. The army is now moving towards the river for the purpose of crossing. Gen. Grant and staff started for Gen. Butter's command. A later dispatch dated Fortress Monroe, June the 15th, says: Two army corpse crossed to the Southside on the night before, and other portions were then crossing Grant and Butler were is consultation. Glimore had not been relieved. Vallanigham in Ohio.--he is to be Protected. Hon C L Vallanigham has arrived at Dayton, Ohio, from Canada, and no attempt and been made up to the 16th by the Federal authorities to arrest him.

Mr. Whipple had with him samples of caps He says: 'Gen. Butter took a sample in his hand and came up to me and asked me the price. I told him $15 per dozen, 5 per cent. off for each in hand. The General said, 'Now the question is this, and we might as well talk it right out — can you let us have six thousand at your price, giving my quartermaster ten per cent to divide around?' I think these are the exact words." Mr. Whipple told the General he had mistaken his man. The General only wished to make seven hundred and fifty dollars in the little purchase, and who believes that if, when starting on his New Orleans expedition, he would plunder it and the inhabitants of the city after he get
