from the mere semblance of breaking b

tremily, nor do we desire to extend ti

Himent merited alone by Gen. Tope aim
such commissioned officers us choote ti

You are, therefore, instructed to com

lents ot this letter, and copy encloed o
General Order, to the end that he may bi
notified of our intention not to eoni-idei

That our dispatches from Richmond,
siiys the Mobile Evening News, touchinj
I he order given by the President to Gen.
Lee on the subject of Gen. Pope's war pol
icy may be understood, we enpy the fol
lowing from the Richmond Whig. Oui
enemies are rapidly paving the way lor a
war ol extermination. Terrible as the re
solve may be, the Confederate O.iverii
ment and people may be driven tolioi
the black flag as a measure of d- fence.
Lincoln piettuds, fays the Whig, the
he is waging war against the .Soulht-n
States to restore the Union; and Seward
declared some time ago that the restored
Union was not to be the symliol of force,

The Yankee commander at Fredericks
