    do this the Government mast view
the matter in the same earnest light
that I do. * * 1 k now that & few
thousand more men woald have
changed thia battle from a defeat to
a victory. As it is, the Government
cannot bold me responsible for the
result.
"I feel too earnestly to-night. I, have
soon too many dead and, wounded
comrades to feel otherwise than the
Government has not, sustained' this
army. If you do.not do so now-, the
game is. lost.—lf I 5 save bhis army
now, kteil you plainly that I owe no
thanke,to you or to any other persons
i#a Washington, - Xou have done your
hest to saoritkx , this army."
slid save it, deste Mr.
Idileotn and Mr. Stanton. Uolding
aloA rmittaaat itarrison's bar, pro=
teeted by the gunboats which lay
ne t ar.by on the James, General Mc-
Clellan urged upon the administre
iibp the necessity of strengthening
iliti,army preparatory to .a fresh At
tack on Richmond. While at this
point he addressed that Memorable
lel,ter to the President coataining his
*Jews on the- conduct of the war,
which. is now known by the title of
the "Harrison's Bar Letter" which
Ago joist elsewhere under the titis of
' l G . etieral McClellan's Platform."--
Meantime General lialleck was ap
pointed General:in-Chief. On the 3d
of August he telegraphed General
MOClellen to withdraw his army to
Acquin creek. The latter remonstra
ted against this movement as far as
it, Was proper for him to do, but to no
effect:. All speed was used, the army
Stiltdx_embarked on board transports,
aid on the 24th General McClellan,
Who WAS the last to leave Fortress
Monroe, reached Acquia creek and re
ported to General Balleck for or
deri.
GIIMERAL 761'CLIELtAil WITHOITT A COM
illA
As'lf not yet satisfied with at
tempts to injure General McClellanTs
reputation, the adminfstration kept
him at Ac(pia creek during General
Pope's series of defeats, and at ono
time hod. barely, one hundred men un
der his command. Every fresh dis
patch front General Pope brought
sad tidings; the brave men of the
army cif the Potomac who survived
the Peninsula campaign were hurried
into
,bikttap.o.nlg to be sacrificed, and
the Greneral whom- they lnrmd,, and in
Whom they trusted so implicitly,
was kept in his tent within sound of
their guns because of the Washington
strategists.. At last McClellan could
restrain-his feelings no longer, and in
a dispatch to General Halleck, dated
p. wrote these words.
"I cannot express to you the pain
and mortification I have experienced
to-day in listening to the distant
sound of the firing of rny men.. As I
can be of no further use lima ) Ii re
speCtinily ask that, if there- if, a prob.
ability. of the conflict betag renewed
tut - morrow, I may bo permitted to go
to the scene of battle with my staff
merely to be with my own mon, if
nothing more ; they will fight none
the %terse for my being with. them.
It it is not deemed best to intrust me
with.the command even of my army,
, ir fate on the field.
"Please reply to this to-night."
,
Gan.* MILIAN AGAIN IN COMMAND.
That same day, unknown to Gen.
McClellan, an order had been issued
by the War Pepartment placing him
itr eemmand of the troops not sent
fOill'ard to Gelleanl Pope s command,
andrat 1p o'clociten the following eve
nlng,,General Halteck, in a dispatch
.I.olm, besought his aid in these
'Ards : •
"I bog of you to assist me id this
efisialwitb your ability and experi
ence" •
`On the lit of September he repair
ed!to'Nfashingtdn ; the shattered re
mains of Pope's army fell back to the
foftifleations of that city, and• just at
thislime news Caine that the rebels
were crossing ihel'otomac. General
McClellan eallecta as speedily as
possible the'fragments of the army,
and on the 7th of September, left
Washington to find Ime's army and
defeat it.
The invasion of Maiytand and the
Victory at South Mountain.
By a series of.forced marches he
occupied the strateizetie`points along
the line of the Potomac,and compell
ed Lee to retire from rederielt City
on the 12th. On the 'l4th occurred
the fight at' Crampton's pass, which
resulted so , gloriously for our forces,
which were commanded by General
'Franklin. The sarne day General
McClellan was fighting the battle of
South Mountain. The position held
0:7 the rebels was strong by nature,
but, after a most obstinate - resistance
they were driven from it. Our total
lotip, in killed, wounded, and missing,
was one thousand five hundred and
sixty-eight ; that of the enemy was
not known beyond the one thousand
and five hundred prisoners that foil
into our hands.
THE VICTORY AT ANTIETAM.
Order were issued the night after
the battle of South Mountain for an
advance at early dawn of the next
day; but the enemy fled during the
night, and took up a, strongposition
on the heights on the west bank of
Antietam creek. The •16th was
• spent in getting our forces into prop
er.position for attack, and early on
the morning of the 17th the battle
Was opened by the skirmishers of the
Pennsylvania Reserves. All day the
battle raged with varying success,
ti at last the enemy was forcid
bank,,and our troops "slept on the
ik e id which their valor had won."—
our total losses were 2,010 kilted, 8:
06 -Wounded. 1,040 missing. The
rebels left 2,710 of their dead on the
fi e ld, and we captured 13 .guns, 39
colors over 15 , 000 stands at small
arms, and more f,ban 6,000 prisoners.
But for the tinanOnntablo delay of
General Burnside, the results of the
victory would hive been oven more
complete.
EVE,NTS SUBSEQUENT ,TO THE *84.7f,E
OP ANTIETAM.
:Immediately after the battle,- Gen
eral IdePollan pushed forward his
troOPe, a portion of which- occupied
Harper's Ferry and 4 e Mir3rland
. •
Heights on the. 20tb.and 22nd of Sep
tember. The- army was worn out,
for it, had no, rest from the time it had
left Harrisonls bar. Since that time ,
it had suffered a, series of defeats un
der General Pope, and hurried through
itisnylarul and gained the two bril
-limit victories: of. South Mountain
and Antietam. or this reason Gen
eral McClellan deemed it necessary
to give it some little respite, besides
supplying it -with clothing of which
it was in sore need. His cavalry, too
had suffered greatly in the - loss of i
horses. On the 7th of October, he
received virders &mu General Hal
leek to advance immediately, when,
as yet,,the requisitions for the much
needed supplies %ad not been filled.—
This order General McClellan - sot to
work to obey, !nit on account of the
&Hare of supplies to be sent him it
was twenty days. before the grand
advance could be begun. The army
marched up the Shenandoah
through the gaps into the valley of
Virginia, and a portion reached War
renton and Culpepper Court House,
when, on the night of Norember,7,
General McClellan. was, ordered to
tam over his command - let .Oreneral
Burnside and rep Art at Trenton, Now
.Tereey.
GENERAL M'CLELLAN DEPRIVED OP MS
COMMAND,
The same night he penned the fol
loAVing farewell4ddress to his brave
soldiers: • •
H Q. ARAMOR THE POTOMAC, )
CAMP NEAR RECTORTOWN, Nov 7, 7 62
Officert mai Soldtere of the Army of t Le
Potomac : . . •
An order of the President devolves
upon Major General ,Burnside the
command of this army. In parting
from you I cannot expirs the love
and gratitude I -bear you. As an
army you have grown up under my
care. In. you I bare never found
doubt and coldness. The battles you
have fought under my.command will
proudly live in our nation's history,
The glory you have ,achieved, our
mutual perils and fatigues,the graves
of our comrades fallen .in battles and
by disease, the broken forms of, those
whom wounds and sickness have dis
abled—the strongest associations
which can axial among_ taen—unite
us still by an indissoluble tie. We
shall ever be comrades in supporting
the Constitution of our country, and
the natioriality of its people.
GEO. E. McCLELLAN 2
Major General; U. S. A.
The soldiers were thunderstruck by
thia; and those who witnessed the
demonstrations made by. them as the
General rode along the lines on the
way to the railroad station, need no
other proof of the oft-repeated asser
tion that "Little Mae" was the idol
of the Army of the-Potomac. 0 n the
route to Trenton he was everywhere
met by - crowds of enthusiastic admit.-
' era, and from many cities _
invitations came to him to visit them.
These were of cOarse declined. Sub
sequently, however, he visited New
England, and Was met at ,every point
by immense , crowds, including not a.
few disabled soldiers whO bad served
under him. It was the , samg story
every where. "Little Mae, forever!'
went. •
THE GENERAL IN RETIREMENT.
What indignities the General has
suffered at the hands of the adninis
tration since ,his depositioh are
known to but feriV. He has` seen- his
friends insulted by. the powers that
be, simply because they are his
friends. Officers in. the service,
known to be attached to him, have
been either removed or ordered to
posts where their sympathy for him
could not have,
_any influence. .Gen
eral Meade, it, will be remembered,
Came near losing his position. as com
mander of the Arniy ef, the Potomac
last spring, and one of the main
points urged against him was that, he
was in correspondence with General
McClellan. Even, the West Point,
oration was not suffered to escape the
spite of, the administration. An of
ficer was sent en from Washington
for the special pus case, of postponing
its dOivery ; w 4 failing in this, re
venge was taken., upon Lieut. Col.
Bowman by removinghim from the
charge on the Military Academy.—
The : lottcrs have been opened on their
plosage through the mails; and in
short, every indignity that malice
-could suggest has been practiced up
on this popular General. Yet no one
hasleard a word of complaint from
him. lie was content to leave his
record to history, and history is fast
doing it justice. Step by step, it has
advanced his name on the list
of those whom it, calls 'great; until
now it shines beiide the proOdest
names of which our country boasts.
The mists- in which-part:jean malice
tried to enveltipe'-it-itave 'been dis
solved by the Tight of truth, and. to.
day a greatfut people look to IvfeClel
lan to save them from the ruin which
his defamers have brought upon the
country. That the nation will ele
vate him to the place which a Wash
ington honored as a Lincoln has dis
honored, is beyond a doubt. The sol
dier, -the statesman, the orator:the
Christian—such are the titles which
history will award to George Brinton
MeCleilan.—The World.

The Democratic meeting in Leba
non, on Saturday afternoon, on - two
day's notice, turned out to be a tie
mendons Mass Convention. It was
one of the handsomest displays and
largest turnontspf any meeting
-
in 'Lebanon roi
Other devices, come to town . which
had not been expected by anybody.
Our Democratic friends of Cornwall
• had a tremendous long string ''of ve
hicles, one of 'which WaS a large wag
on surmounted by a flag staff, 30 feet
high, from which the stars and stripes
floated. The wagon was crowded
with human beings, and
. was drawn
by 34 horses, .ever,y one of which had
bells and •a. rider. Another wagon
contained 34 girls dretsed in - white
a nd wearing liberty caps ; "represent
,
ing the 34 States of
,our Union. As
they passed. along; ilnde.r the guid
.
' ance of L..C. Shirk and hisassistants,
the air was Made to ring with ".Mc-
Ciento forever." Large delegations
ifrom' South Lebrinen", Heidleberg,

so-in attendance, , snme ,, of which par

After the organization. of the Meet

a most excellent speech 'of consider
able length. The high wind, cold
air, and some characteristic inferrer
enceii by the . oppOsition; sletracted,
Somewhat-frimi the effect of the meet.:
ing and withdrew attention, , but
notwithstanding all this fir' 'Fields'
practical address had its influence.--
At a seasonable hour the meeting
adjourned With many Cheers for Mc-
Clellan . ,Pendletoit„ and Democracy:
sgic;„ A very large meeting was
held in Lebanon, on Wednesday even
ing list, which was addressed by R.
A. Lam herton and Heilnan A.lricks,
Esqrs., ofHarrisburg. The front of
Mr. Matthes' Hotel, in Market Street,
was beautifully, decorated, and the
speaking took place from the balcony.
This Meeting, as all Democratic meet
ingsare; was a. perfect success, and
we trust `the result may prove that
it was of great behefif to the good
old cause.
In Portland the Democrats ran
