We will duplicate the Mine job at two dollar per net, and reler to 5 A. Fletcher, banker, as ectiritj.

"Two month ago the Quartermaster General t.ttte-1. in a pubk-hol card, tUat all contract w.inld he giveu publicly.

Gov. MoaTos was informed as to thedithculty in procuring contracts from the Qti irtenn ier s Department ly our home mechanic, and that in August following he w.i njecitic.illy advised that W. S. T.

'2 5') a et, who finally consented to ahave, by i Moaro.f, of '2 per cent. 011 tlie contract, to get their pav. It is not cur purpose to impugn the iu J tegtity rf the "man raised up for the present erisi." We state the fact only, and the commu j n:tf must draw their own conclusions as to the I ignorance of the Governor in regard to the tranaclioits in the Quartermaster's Department. He cannot lietiv that l.is atieutiois was called to the matter, and peeitj charges m uieby a responsible aud repctable business house of this city. The puff ol his .ub litem cannot outweigh suhtHirn f u. Yet the Governor continued Mr. Vajx in offic for ei.ht months after he was advise! of his. to nay the least, doubtful operations The following ia the testimony of Geueral Vajlx in regard to the Mi-rtox contract: A contract for cartridge boxe wa m ule with W.S T M.ri.n. of Centerville, eailv in j the spring (Irtil ) It wa let ujmii ids.

Vajen himself, GEi.ss.DORfF nays, referred to ihe ten per cent., and to the fact that the award of the two legiment was to be conditional upon the payment ofthat amount. GxiS-T.xroKrr also weirs positively and unequivocally that the money for both lot was enclosed in an envelope addieed to Mr. Vajen, and wa. deposited iu hi store. Thi wa a partof the programme between the contracting parties. There is an i.-sue of veracity between Vajkm and GtissoDOK rr. They areas wide apart in their testimony as the poles. The late Qu ar tertnaster (Seneral swears, in jxisitivc term, that no such arrangement w is mniewith him, and that he never received any commission or bonus in connection with any contract for furnishing supplies to the army while he was ofliciatiug in that department of the public service.

T he House being in Committee of the Whole on tne State of the Union, Mr. Uichanlsmi said: Mr. Chairman: The annual message recently sent to thi House by the President of the United Slates, is the most rem 11 kable of any that his ever been delivered to Congress It is rem 11 k.. ble lor what it says, ami it 1. stiil more lein n kable for what it omit to say. One hall of the twenty-one pages which it covers t devoted to negroe. No page, no sentence, no line.no word, is given 10 land, or even lo mention, the bravery, the gallantry, or even the c.ood conduct of our soldiers in ttie v irion Moody battles which h ive been fought.

No sy moaihy isteudeicd to the sorrowing widow and to the helpless orf inn made out iu the prores.j ol this w.ir, which could lnve been avoided by honor. tide compromise, if the i'resident and his friends had cho.-eu so to do. Sir, it i a rein irkub! document. It is an extraoidinary message, w hen we come to think of it sum and sub-t tnee To feel, clothe, buy and coioi ie the negro we are to tax and inoitae the white una mid his children. The white race is to be burdened to the earth tor the benefit of Ihe black rat e. A friend of mine from New Englaid the other dty made a malheuiatical .imU-isoi the message.

He call upon n o comrromi-e. Wnt comni-omU-e is that? For ! whom doe he rntae a compromise? Whstbw? u order that you may hive more power to ad vance llie negro. I bit 1 all there I to it, and there 1 nothing less of it. He tell 11s there are differences of opinion among the fiicuds of the Union "in regard to slavery and the African race among us " He fays lo all of those who differ with him, suriender your conviction mid come to my plan and be call that compromise! Compromise! Yes, 1 trust iu God the thy is not far tlispmt wben ihe eop1e of ihi country will compromise and save the Constitution und ihe Union br the while people, nnd not for the black people Our people, ure for no other compromise than that. There are other portion of the message uton which I should Jike to bes'ow some attention, but 1 will foibcir to do so now, fori desire to call the attention of ihe committee to another propitious of the Piesident com.ec'ed with this subject. 'I he proclam ition of the 21 1 of September I it, is-uel by the President, took ihe country by surp i-e, and no one of the citizen more than mvse'f I h id fondly ho; ed and been nnxiou that the Prc-ident of the United States should so conduct him-elf iu the high olüce as Chief Mitristrate, that I could lend him my sutHit I have been driven, with ihonsinds of other, into opposition to the policy outlined in that proclam ition, for reason which must commei d them-elve to every reflecting man sincetely desirous of terminating this war and suppressing the rebellion. ' Mr. Lincoln, on Ihe 4'h'of M .rch.ltGl, on the east portico of this Capitol, took a vow, which he siid wits registered in Heaven, to support the Constitution of the United States. In hi inau gural address-, delivered on that occasion, he naid he had no lawful authority or inclination to inlerleie with the institution of slaverv in the Stales where it exists. Iu his piod imationof the 22d of September last, he" assumes that he has power to lorever tree "all per.-ons held s slaves with'ii any State, or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall le in rebellion iigiinst the United Slate." thus violating the pledge so soieninly made in his inaugural address. If the object of the prochimbtion wa not to aid the rebellion, its effect was. It ha strengthened the rebellion by driving into their nrmy every person in the South that it was possible to drive there. Wa its intent to ffeet ihofe alone in re hellion? Clearly not. The slave uf every limn in a rebellious State were to be free. The loyal man owning twenty slave und the man in (he rebel army owning a l.ke number, wete. by that proclamation, to he effected precisely ihe same. The object of the prochun ition was to benefit the 11ev.ro, not to retoie the Government or pieserv e the Constitution. It was nothing more, iiothiuir less. It goes a bow shot bevond anvthing done by thU Iluu-e at the last session of Congress. But iigan. If the proclamation is to be carried into effect, the war mut continue until every slave is fiee. It every rebel hould lay down his arms on the 2d dar of Januirv next, or anv sub sequent day, and submit himself to the laws and Constitution of the United States, the war would still have to go on unless the slave were all free, lor the proclamation !eclare that "the Executive Government of the Uniied Slate, including the miliiary and naval authorities therein, will lecognize and maintain the freedom ot such per Kins." It strengthens the arm ol the rebellion and postpones the time of texturing peace lo this country, by the declaration of the purpose for which ihe Executive pow er sha'l be used In what respect his our cau-c the cause of tlie Union Inen advanced? Up to that time, liitouuhout tlie greit North-wesf, you had butlo call for volunteers nd they rushed lo the army. Since then, you have bad no volunteering Prior to tint time it was not necessaiy. as the Si-te tary of War as I am told, for 1 have not reid hi iejMit now dec! ues it i nccc-siry, to h ive Provost Marhal in every county to arrest tie serf or from tlie arm v. We ale iiilorined that but a few days before ihe is-uin of this 1 rod. 1 mat ion the I're-ideni him-elf declared, in a cotilerence with some gen tleinen who wete urging him to this step, that it would not only be wholly inoperative in the oh ject sought, but would d rectly we . ken us in the tmnler States, but significantly added that it might inciease our stieiiih in the Noith. I pause here to iiupa're wheie tint additional strength iu ihe North wa to be obtained; not certainly troni the Democratic element in the North. If ndditioii.il vigor was infused into the soivice.it niu-l come f mm some other quarter which until then had not hoitiily sustained the policy of the Administi ition. I need not paiiicu larizv w hat class of indi vidu ils weie to be ihu induced to lend their support -the country wcl. knows the btlelul intluence of this class, and the end they seek to nt colo.llish. lint thi i tint all. The leconl of the military operations show to day almost conclu-i ely what thecocniry h id for some consideraole time suspecled; that success in a military point of view was nut so much the object sought a the bring ing about a condition ol th:ng w hen a proclam ttion of this sort coulj be urged as the only means ot .securing to us success.

Tbetr isue troclamation to Irce ! the negro, and call that a vigorous prosecution ol the war. The charge that McClelhn failed to relieve Harper's Ferry, is a mere pietext. got opto omUt by it cotninis-ioti of lineil descendant of Justice Shallow, and they, like lh?ir ancestor, have written theinseUe ilown usse. 'I heir timling has but lo be read lo be condemned. The le u ned commibsion find Col Ford censurable because he suiiendeied Maryland Hights after he wa re lieved; and the same commission t en-urtd McC clhtit because he did not relieve that point Here is (heir finding: "The Genetal-in-Chief also testifies that, in his opinion. General McCiellan could and should have relieved nd protected Harper'- Ferry, and iu tlii opinion the commission fully concur. "By reference to the evidence, it will be ?een tint at the very moment Col Fold abiinlot ed Marv lami Hight', his little army was in reality rel eved by Generals Franklin and Sumner's corps, at Cr.implonV Gap, within seven mi Its ol his position." Truth i consistent ; fal.-ehood and error are inconsistent, l lie finding of the commission is of ihe latu r character. I he commission gives facts nn ldaiestvhi.h show conclusively that McCiellan did all that could be done to relieve Harper's Ferry, omitting one that I will supply. On the llih of September he telegraphed H dieck to hate Colonel Mile ordered to join him at once. All communication had been ilestroyed on the 7th with Harper's Fery. On the 12sh ol Sep tember llaheck telegraphed Wool to place his troop under the command of McCiellan, (which included Harper's Ferry.) On the 12th of September, McCiellan for the first time learns die situation of Harper's Ferry, hi id without delay, "is i shown ly the com mi sion itself, orders Sumner's and Franklin's corps to its relief 1 give but a brief statement of the fict., it is sufficient On the same day Harper's Ferry was placed under the commind of Me Cieilan, Brigadier General White arrived at Harj er's Ferry. He ' waived rank to Colonel Miles, ihtrel v confessing his inabilitv to nsume command in conformity to his rank, yet the com mis-ion sav he tlid noble nnd gallant service, fand nothing vo censure in him. and I suppose in due time he will he promoted for his gallart forbearance The commission censures General Wool lor continuing Mile in commind at Ha i per'. Feiry.but applaud White for waiving rank that Miles might rut render what Wool com nn ttded him to bold. Wool put a quietus unon them by showing that the War Department had diiected Mile to report directly to that tdlice from day to dav, and he could hive shown the following tele gr.mi from this city to Cd Mi'es: 'The Department have perfect confidence in your ability and in yoor competency, and direct tint vou hold your position tu the last extrem ity." " SMii'on. Halleck and Lincoln have confidence in Mile-; they continue him in cuiiiinuiil of an i(u;ort:int position; White waive rank for hi in out McCiellan must be censured, and thi i one ol the points on which they seek to assail him. But Halleck says he disobeyed order in not cros-ing the Potomac and giving htttleto Lee. Of necessitv, MrCltllan's minv was h itteted bv the ball i es in Miryl.md His- nrmy was, ol ne eessity, much sc Utered, and Halleck had him-elf, under his own command, seen the evil re-tilt ot throwing in the hu e of a ma.-ked foe an infeiior foice. Such folly at Pittsburg L Hiding clotlieil iu inouintng the North west. The Ka-l had leit it. t fleet in Pope's campaign, under the eye of II Heck There has been quite enough of this. When we recollect H illeck. rapid and xpnlitinuH march from Pittsburg Lauding to Cormth, then we can compiehend whv he is so anxious for the rapid unrchesof McCiellan. Neither in Hal leek's complaint, nor in the finding of the Commission, !o we find anything to warrant tlie removal of McClelhn from Ins commu, o; and hence my mind is brought to the irie.istib!e com lusiori that it whs his failure lo indorse the proclam tum that was the rial cause of his iciiovil.
