Gen. Fremont's requisition for Funds.

New York, Sept. 26.
--Fremont having made immediate requisition for $500,000 for military stores, Gen. Ripley replied denying the right of Fremont to make the proposed purchases. He states that further accounts show that excessive prices have been paid, and that no inspection of the goods purchased has been made. Finally, Ripley says that unless the purchases are regulated and restricted, the present appropriation of Congress will be insufficient to meet the liabilities.
