f of the families of soldiers within the lines of the lines of the enemy. We have not had an opportunity of examining the bill, but understand that it contemplates the distribution of this fund to the counties overrun by the enemy, through agents to be appointed to represent the county in the matter. A proposition was made to prevent the exchange of Confederate money appropriated under this bill for other currency at less than specie value, which was properly, in our judgment, opposed by Mr. Monroe, of Hampshire, upon the ground that it would render the appropriation entirely useless in the very portions of country where it was designed to be operative and effective. The passage of this bill will doubtless exert a sanitary influence upon those gallant men who have left their homes and families within the enemy's lines. Even if the objects of the bill are not attained to the extent contemplated, its passage will go to show that the State of Virginia is not unmindful of the welfa

rtificial channel formerly used by light draught steamers, had been communicated to Gen. Banks by the Department at Washington, with orders to co-operate in the effort. The presence of Gen. McPherson is not made officially known here. Our laudatory journals do, it is true, tell about several distinguished staff officers who are here from Vicksburg; but they are prudently silent as to the presence of the General himself. Gen. Ord also quietly assumes command of his corps, the 13th; and Gen. Franklin is here. Put all these things together, and you will say Mobile is to be attacked. I do not believe this is to be the present destination of the forces. The fact that the light draught river fleet is again fitting up for active duty; that there has been strong recruiting going on here for engineers to serve on twelve of the vessels, which must proceed, somewhere to make a combined and the rains give promise of a rise in our Southwestern rivers, points unmistakably to the Red riv

reconciliation. In a conversation with Mr. Botts, he stated that never for a single instant during this war has he doubted the final result. His opinion of George B. McClellan is not at all complimentary to that gentleman, whom he regards, if not positively disloyal at heart, at least in the light of an ambitious aspirant for undeserved honors. Mr. Botts stated that he believed that the majority of the rebel army regarded McClellan as being as truly devoted to their interests as Robert E. Lee, and that a man who would not, when his name was used in connection with Davis, Vallandigham, Wood and others of the same political complexion, come out boldly and disclaim the association, was totally unfit to be commander of a Union army. Mr. Botts says that of all the promises made to the Southern people by the leaders of secession, only one may possibly be fulfilled. The promise referred to is the case of Mr. Toombs of Georgia, who, it will be remembered, said he would yet call the

s by the Department at Washington, with orders to co-operate in the effort. The presence of Gen. McPherson is not made officially known here. Our laudatory journals do, it is true, tell about severaoops which are laying in the mud of Algiers and returning from Attakapas. It will be easy for McPherson to co-operate with them; but how would he manage to do so in an attack on Mobile? Grant aformer had his entire forces with which he captured Vicksburg with him. How are the remains of McPherson's corps to do better? I have heard men talk so wildly as that an expedition would start from y. There are but two routes by which to approach Mobile with the forces of either Banks or McPherson, and they meet come to New Orleans to go to either point. They may go to Pascagoula in light y after the campaigns of last year and the numerous feints on Texas, with all the forces which McPherson could muster by abandoning the Mississippi river to the guerillas, the best way to prove it wo

Staff, merely to be with my own men, if nothing more. They will fight none the worse for my being with them. If it is not deemed best to entrust me with the command of my own army, I simply ask to share their fate on the field of battle. Please reply to this to-night. I have been engaged for the last few hours in doing what I can to make arrangements for the wounded. I have sent out all the ambulances now loaded. As I have sent my escort to the front I would be glad to take some of Gregg's cavalry with me, if allowed to go. Gen. Halleck's reply. I have just seen your telegram of last night. The substance was repeated to me when received, but I did not know that you asked for a reply immediately. I cannot answer without seeing the President, as General Pope is in command, by his order, of the department. I think Couch's division should go forward as rapidly as possible, and find the battle-field. Gen. Halleck to Gen. McClellan. August 31--2:45 P. M.

I have sent to the front all my troops, with the exception of Couch's division, and have given the orders necessary to insure its being disposed of as you directed. I hourly expect the return of one of my aids, who will give authentic news from the field of battle. I cannot express to you the pain and mortiof last night.

The House then adjourned at a quarter of six o'clock. The contemplated attack on Mobile. The New Orleans correspondent of the New York World, writing on the 16th inst., thus speculates on the probability of a movement on Mobile: I was positively told the other day that instructions to Admiral Farragut to pierce Mobile harbor by Grant's pass, a narrow artificial channel formerly used by light draught steamers, had been communicated to Gen. Banks by the Department at Washington, with orders to co-operate in the effort. The presence of Gen. McPherson is not made officially known here.
