Pottsville he made a shriller prediction, that
if Abraham Lincoln shonld be re-elected that
tharebellion 'mania trantifernxi to the
North. In addition to this, hie speeches have
been of the most inflammatory character, ap
pealing to the - wrest plosions of the igno
rent, turbulent and brutal portion of the pop
ulation,•Which we regret to- say so largely
inhabits the strong sham-Demciertnicdistriets
of the Coal Rcgion. Outrages followed
nearly every al Leech hi made in this Region,
and the scenes which disgraced (our County
for the last eighteen months proCeeded froni
the slim cause, _rendering Its .occupation
. by
the military necessary, are now being re-en=
acted in different portions of the :
In noticing the astounding disclosures
made by Judge Holt of the great Conspira
cy to Overthrow the Goiernment by invok
ing the North to Rebellion in ease Lincoln
is re-elected, we charged that Mr. F. W.
Hughes - must be a member of that associa
tion, beCausehis teachings were directly in
accordance with these disclosures, and,could
only have been made by; an acquaintance
with their objects. Now, we may-have been
in error in charging him with •:.kettrAL 'mem -bership, but that is immaterial,:so long as the
threats are of the same charaater, and we ap
peal to every intelligent citizen in the Coun
ty, whether Such is not the only inference
that can be drawn from Hughes's threaten
ing a Rebellion North, and that our streets
would flow_ with blood.. What right had
Mr. Illighes to threaten the people with a
Rebellion ardess he desired a Rebellion, or
was acting in concert with those .who were
to produce the Rebellion ?. How could he
know their objects if he was not sp • king
for them when he made these threats ?
• Whether a member or not, is he not equally)
guilty in thus threatening the people with a
Rebellion:here, weakening the power of the
Government in putting it down, and thus
giving aid and comfort to the enemy, m those
who were engaged in inaugurating it . ? If this
great ,Vonspiracy had not fortunately been
discovered in time; and these threats had been
followed by, open rebellion in the North and
our streets made to. flow with blood,
would not F. W. Hughes, by all the laws of
God and man, be pronounced a' traitor?. In
time of war, when our country is imperilled
by the most.wieked and damnable rebellion
that ever epsted, such threats"voluntarily
Ede from public stands, while a terrible con
spiracy exists to put them in execution, such .
language addressed to the people, under the
laws become
,just as treasonable as commit
ting the overt act itself.
`We append the testimony of Judge Holt in
his expose, that a similar Conspiracy existed in
the Coal Regions. It is as: follows :"
"In this connection the outbreak of the
miners in the co" districts of Eustern Penn
sylvania, in the. autumn of last year, may be
appropriately referred to. It was fully shown
in the testimony adduced, upon the trials of
these - insurgents, who were guilty of the,de
struction of property and numerous acts of
violence, as well : as murder, that they were
generally members of a secret treasonable
association, similar in all respectsto the K.
G. C.,'at the meetings of which they' had been
incited to the commission of the crimes for
which they were tried and "convicted."
. Now, because we have dared to comment
upon the speeches of this demagogue, and
point out their tendencies and objects, he has
sued us for a libel, which shciws that the
"galled jade winces;" that he is beginning to
recoil from the effects of his own teachings.
This stiekler for "free speech," " free press,'
" free elections," and ""free fights,"- which
has characterized all his - disreputable ha
ranguos wherever he has spoken; sues for a
libel ! A man who has lied about•the friends' ,
of the Union; lied about the Government
which protects him; lied about our public
debt'; lied about the currency; lied about the
. _
greenbacks, and has endeavored to destroy
the credit of the Government 'by stating that
a half bushel of greenbacks would about buy
a half bushel of potato,ss, and he who got the
potatoes would get the best of the bargain—
in fact, his lying would absolutely disgrace
the father of hes—sues for a libel to patch .up
his miserable, tattered political charieter.
The man that acknowledged that he had pre
pared a resolution to offer in a State Conven
tion, looking to the transfer of Pennsylvania
to the traitorous Government in the South, in
Case they committed treason, sues for a libel!
Well, let him make the most of it. So long
as our country is imperilled by treason, both
North and South, we are determined to per
. form our duty to the country, and throw all
our influence iii favor of its preservation, even
'
at the peril or life, property, and libel suits ;
and we *u.r, bold up all spouters of treasons-
- hie sentiments to the scorn arid indignation of
every loyal man in .the count,: If we do
less we will prove recreant-in our duty to our
country while we , control a public press.
If Mr. Hughes stood ,in the same position
' as other citizens in 'our County, he could
wield but little influence, and but a small
portion of our paper would be devoted to
ventilate his acts; but what gives him the
pow'er for so much mischief, and stamps him
as the most dangerous political demagogue
i n the county, is the fact, that the impression
prevails throughout the County, and purlieu
' larly among the turbulent classes, that he
controls the courts in the administration of
justice. We do not say that thii-is true, but
we do assert, and we can - prOVe it by thous
ands of the most respectable citizens of , the
County, that the puny:saws prevails and is
ACTED upon by many who have business at
Court ; and, whether true or false, the EFFECT
is the slum: ; consequently wherever Mr.
Hughes makes inflammatory speeches tc: the
ignorant populace, they also ACT UPON IT,
and violence„ is sure to follow, because
'DIET believe that if arrested and tried,
!It:hetifriend,” Mr. Hughes, can get them
clear. It is . this impression, erroneous though
it, may - be, that is sapping the' foundations.
of justice in our County—it if this punySalmi
that leads to the ieenea, of 'violence and mur
der in our midst,. rendering life and property
insecure. • It is thintbat'is driving out the
,best citizens from- the turbulent districts—
it is this that causes many of our best cid
_ zees to talk of the , necessity of a • "Vigilance
Committee," to protect life _ . and.property in
the community ; and it is this impression
. that gives F. W. Hughes so routh power for
evil, and istempt bim as' the most dangerous
demagogue in the County. If - he should
• go to Europe,"as we understand he threatens
to do . in case Line,oln is re-elected, this Conti
- ty would be largely the gainer by his absence.

ing a gloomy- pictxtre of 'the Despotism that
exists under the Rebel Government, for the
edification t!lt Jeff. Davis, asfollows:
'.'Well, we haie been at liarnot quite four years; '
and what is the result ? - hi not our Federal Gov-.
ernment in the exercise of, every pcttualle power.
of a national central military despotism? Sup
pose the.re 'were no States, only provinces, and 'nn

gress, *hat greater powers would yoa exercise
than you do know ?.Have-vte not carried conscrip
tion to its last limits? Is not every man in the
. country.betweenl7 and 50 ,subject to militaiy an
thotity ? • None are exempt exceptapon conaider
talons of.public interest. Have wenot been com
pelled to lay direct taxes in the very teeth' of the
theory of the Constitution ? Have we not issued ,
such vast amounts of paper money as to to un
settle all value? Have. we • not compelled the
holders-
of our papermoney tofund itiorloae one
third. , Have we not seized all the railroads ?
Have we not destroyed railroads andbuilt otheni ?
Hive we not established a universal system of
impressment of property, it our own prices, in
our own money ? ' Have we not established a ov
ernment monopoly of the exportations of the great
staples of the country? Have we not. forbidden
the importation of luxuriee ? Have we not com
palled those whore we permit to remain at home,
to execute bonds .to furnish their products to us
at our prices? Have we not suspended the writ of
habeas corpus.? Have we not introduced the
passport system, which, wensed to think, belong
ed to the iron despotisms of Europe ? In short,
has not our. Federal Government done everything
that a centraliied military despotism could 410 ?
Indeed, if you were appointed Military Dictator,
what greater powers could von exercise than you
now, do? I allude to these things not to complain
of them, but to lament them: If you toll me they
are necessary, I reply that: s precisely my argu
ment. My'argument assumes and requires that
pecessity. It is plain that our Government exer
-coca the powers of a central despotism. I blame
no one forit. I am - slue thotie who are at the
head' of 'the Government would gladly. hoe it
otherwise; but necessity compels' theaeonrse they
have taken..* • * ' *-
The Government at. Washington has not dared
to - exercise. power on the. grand scale that our
Government has. The Lincoln Government has
not ventured to resort to an effective conscription;
it has not resorted totaxation as we have it haS
no tax in kind ; it does not prohibit imports ; it
does not monopolize the exports; it does not rely
on impressments. It plays the tyrant, bit it hes
itates to seize.the sceptre. - : •
Such is the Rebel Government portrayed .
by one of its members of Congress. Now j
reader, did you ever hear a Copperhead speak_
er say one word in condemnatiou'of this Reb-
Governuient, while they:bellow themselves' •
hoarse with abuse of Abraham Lincoln and •
the Administration, which Boyce declares
has not exercised one tithe of the power that
Jeff. Davis has, and it is this rule that these j
leaders would have extended over'the whole
country by uniting' in a dishonorable armis
tice and peace on' the basis , of the Platform •
of the Chicago Convention. May Heaven
protect us from such a catastrophe.
We want no better evidence of the speedy '
downfall of of this Wicked Rebellion than
the recent pitifal speeches of Jeff. Davis made
at Macon; the appeals of the leading rebels ~
in favor of the election, of McClellan, and the '
desponding tone of the RebeLpress since the
great victories recently achieved by Sherman
and Sheridan, and also the recent victories at
the tallot-boxes in Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Indiana. FeiloW voters, do your, sacred duty
on the Bth of November by arraying yoursel
yes in favor of the Government and the sol
diers in the field and the Rebellion will soon
end. - Bow can you expect men to fight "our
battles and prove victorious in the field when
you refuse to s'istain them at home? It would
be a shame and a diagrace if yoti fail to do so
by-your votes. If not sustained they would
serve you right by throwing down their arms
and refusing to
_fight for such cravens at
home. .

THE HERDER. OF YOUNG THOHESON:'
The recent terrible and unprovoked Mur
der In Tremont of W. George Thompson', a
most estirnalile citizen, by a gang of outlaws
acting ender Copperhead teaching, has sent
a thrill of indignation through the.hearts of
the loyal 'people of Schuylkill County. • No
efforts have yet been made by the authori
ties,-to discover and arrest the murderers,
and the.citizens of this County believe that,
a reward should be offered to secure if pos
sible, that result. The matter has already
been delayed too long. The worth of the I
deceased, and the future security of life in
this County demand -prompt . action on the
part of the proper authorities. „ -
Mr: George Thompson, the murdered man,
was born in Schuylkill County, and at the
time of his death was 34 years of age: His
father, the late George Thompson, was a
Scotchman by birth,' and came to this Re
giort nearly forty years since. He was in'
fact, one of the pioneers of this important
Mineral section of; ennsylvania, and during
his entire life one . ot its most useful and re
spected citizens. His - son George, the unfor
tunate yOting num whO was so barbarously
murdered,* was every respect, as estimable
as his father. He was a soldier in the three
months' service in Capt. Sig,fried's company,
Sixth Regiment, P. V: When the Ninety'-
sisthitegiinent was organized here, he be
came a member of it - and wed' through the
seven days' battlei of . the Peninsula cam
paign.
: He was a noble soldier. In Auguit,
1862, he was dischargeu for disability. Mr.
Thompson was a quiet - peaceable man, but
he would allow no Copperhead to abuse in
his hearing, the old flag under which he had
fought He would stick up for the flag of his
country. That was Sufficient to mark-him'as
a man hOstile - to the traitors :endeavoring to.
destroy thecountry, and be
_fell a victim to
Copperhead ferocity. •
It will be a burning. shame if no steps
should be taken to bring to justice the per
petrators of. this most terrible murder of
young Thpmpson. We cannot believe how
ever, that theauthorities will remain inactive-
We hope that the, will offer a liberal reward

East of Coal. The assailants were two Copper
heads, natives of Ireland. Mr. Williams Is. a
/Staunch Union man. It seems that Mr; W. - was
on his way from his residence.to the Methodist
Church, and when near • Pomroy's foundry the
Cops came up to bim and caught him by the
throat. One of them said to Ur, Williams, "you
are for. Old - Lincoln ?" Mr. W. replied, "that is
none of yam' business I" One of the fellows - who
had a club in his hand; said, "By J—s G—t,
I'll make yon holler for McClellan I" -and struck
Mr: Williams a violent blow nith the club. ' Mr.
Williams then broke from them, and ran to seize
a atone to defend himself, when the cowardly as
sailants turned and fled. Another sample of the

A VOICE. Fll.Olll THE PULPIT.
:The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher closed a telling
sermon on - .the war on 'Sunday evening last, with
the following eloquent appeal to : young men :,
• And now I say to every young • man that 'shall
cast the first vote in his life-time, ,!aotl signals
your entrance upon political life by an opportu
nity that does not occur once in-a thousand years
to man or nation. Your first vote will be one of
those vote's that will decide whether this nation
is to be anationlair and proportioned and victo
rious, or whether it shall be like • a vast rod 9,f
iron shattered into - a thousand fragmenta. It is
no small thing to be permitted,by so small a
power as a Vote, to determine such a question as
that. But it is not a small power. Men with votes
in their hand are more powerful than Louis Na
poleon-OD the throne. • *
When that celebratedlion-hunter in . Africa Of
whose wonderful exploits we. have had inch

Now, you are in a position where-there must not
be any mistake. You must hit the lion. You must
wake up and be in earnest. lt is not a' political
duty, merely; it is a religious duty. It takes the
highest' attitude of yatnetism, toward which con
verge the lives of many generations. All Ameri

"Stand at the pivot. It will tern one way or the
other as you vote. Vote, therefore,:for lit:tarty

the rebellion ; vote for war,. which is the right

I could ask nothing better than, standing in''
My dying hour in the very presence of my God,
who gave me life, and, in the very front of that',
• day that is to determine eternal life, to be permit-,
ted to, deposit the vote which it is your privilege
and mine to cast at the ensuing election for the ,
preservation of this Government. I would fear
nothing, if I were to go to the other world direct-
ly from the casting - of that ballot, putting 'into it
'all my Christian hope for this- 'nation, and all my,'
love for it. Beyond all peradventure, methinks
I could rise and confront my Judge as well from
the fulfillment of this duty of the hour and of : the
age, as from the performance of any other Christ
ian act. Make this a day-of-judgment matter,
every one of yea. It is not a time for party heat,
in the sense of passion; it is not a time for parti
san zeal. It is a time for men to - be men ;it is a-1
time -for citizens to be patriotic; it is a time for
Christian principles and Christian motives to ap
tuate every man. See where government goes,
see where order goes, see where liberty.goes, see 1
wherejustice goes, and be' found there. But, if
you will not be found there, oh,' do not 'let your
patriarchs and leaders be such immaculate men
as Fernando Wood and Vallandigham, eminent'
for patriotic aervice,uncorrnpt men,virtuous men,
liberal-minded men, disinterested inen! The men
that animated' the work of constructing the Op
position Platforin=are these the men that' you
will entrust with the destinies and liberties of
your country?: Was Jlldai3 the one to whom the
sacred things of the disciple band -should have
been entrusted? He tamed. the bag, and it was
the inspiration of the bag that -led him to betray
his Master; and the men that animated the come.
oils of the Opposition are men whose history in
the main has not been such as to lead you to en
trust either the bag or the Constitution to their
"care and keeping. . • I
I am, firm in the faith that God means better
things for us than that we should be swallowed
up in the whale's belly for three or foal- days. I I
believe that-God means for us in these threaten-;
ing' auspices only that trial of our faitkwhich
shall vindicate it, and bring us out more yktori-
ous than ever yet we have been in all this strng
gle. Arid then: again shall be aeon that which
took place on the formation of the present Gov

'enured, when - her ports were shut, and :when ;
the armies were gathering in New England; from ,
the very ground where the battle'now rages ' con- 1

the months-of patriotic citizens, from beyond the
Blue Ridge, •and • from the Shenandoah Valley,
poured forth corn and areal. It *went to 'Freder
icksburg, and thence it was conveyed to .Boston,
to supply the wants of the straggling people there.
Virginia, when the National Government was be
ing founded, stood by its defenders in their trial,;
From that region Which is now laid waste, and
over which the storm of warrages with its great
est fury, the patriots'of the East derived needed'
sustenance. And the time will come when we
ellen send back corn for their mouths, and oil and
wine for their wounds; and the voice of Liberty I
ehall be heard in all that State Of, noble ancestry. I
And when the cannon has done its roar, andthere

As anxious as I am to see

would not, therefore, be - aglow to see anysettle
ment until this question is forever settled. "_
The position, antecedents and character of Gen.
Grant no Ices entitle his celebrated letter on the
question of peace to profound respect. Oaths:6th
of August lie wrote'as follows regarding the con
dition of the rebellion:
" Their only hope now is in a divided North.—
This might give them reinforcements from Ten
nessee, Kentucky, Maryland and Missouri, while
it world weaken us. With the draft quickly en
forced the enemy world become despondent, and
would make' but little resistance. I have no doubt
but , the enemy are exceedinglyanxions to hold
out until after, the Presidendal election. -They
have many hopes from its effects. They hope a
counter revolution; they hope the election of , the
peace candidate. In fact, like `Micawber,' they
hope for something to 'turn up.' Our peace friends,
if they expect-, peace from separation, are much
mistaken. It would be but the beginning of war,
with thousands of Northern men 'ming the South
because of our disgrace in allowing separation.—
To have 'peace on any terms' the South would de
mand thereatoration of their slaves already freed;
they would demand indemnity for losses sustain
ed, and they would demand a treaty which would
make the North slave-hunters for the South.—
' They would demand pay or the restoration of elm::
ery slave escaping to the North."
Major-General Sherman.
Major-General William Tecumseh Sherman is
Commander-in-Chief of the grand army in Geor
gia. The following extracts are from letters
written by him :
"Whilst I assert for our Government the high
est military , prerogatives, I am willing to bear in
patience, that political nonsense ' of slave rights,
State rights, freedom of conacience, freedom of
press, and such other trash."—Sherrnan to Major
Sawyer.
"I contend that the treason and rebellion of the
master freed the slave, and the armies I have
commanded have conducted to safe pointe more
negroes than those of any. General officer in the
army."—Sherman to Massachasetts Recruiting
Committee.
"The Government of the United • States have,
in North Alabama, any and all rights which they
. choose to enforce in war; to take their lives; their
hoines,their lands, their everything; because they
cannot deny -that war exiets there, and war is
simply power unrestrained by Constitution or
compact."—Sherman to Maj. B. M. Sawyer, coin
manding at Huntsville, in April last. ,
"The people of the South having appealed to
war are barred from appealing to oar 'Constitu
tion, which they have practically denied. They
have appealedtowar,and must abide its rules and
Jaws. The United. States. as a belligerent party
claiming right in the soil as the ultimate sove
reign, have a right to change the ramulition, and
it may be and is both politic and just we should
do so in certain districts. When the inhabitants
persist too long in hostility, it may be both poli
tic and right we should banish them - and appro
priate their lands to a more loyal and useful pop.
ulation."—Sherman to the same.
"To those who submit to the rightful law and
authority, all gentlenees and forbearance, but to
the petulant and persistent Secessionists, why,
death is mercy, and the quicker he or she is dis
posed of the better."—Sherman to the same. , .
Major-General Meade.
Major-General Meade, the hero of Gettysburg
and the commander of the Army of the Potomac,
a Democrat in former politics, testifies as follows
against the Democratic Peace Platform :
`Dismisaing,as now useless to discuss,all ques
tions as to the origin of this war, we have daily
and hourly evidences that it exists, and that it
can only be terminated by hard fighting, and by
determined efforts to overcome the armed ene
mies of the Government." ,
Major-Geneiral Logan.
Major-General JOhn A. Logan, the gallant corps
commander under General McPherson, and a
leading Douglas. Democrat, of Illinois, spoke the
views of all the Generals in active service in the
West, when he said-:
"The greatest victory of the Rebels, greater
than fifty MSIIBB9OB, and the one_that can give
them a particle of hope, will be to efeat the war
party at the incoming campaign."
A committee of McClellan men wrote to Gener
al Logan, at Atlanta, begging him to indorse the
Chicago Platform. He took his pencil, and, for
answer, wrote on the back of his last order con
gratulating. his troops upon the Union victories,
the words "Excuse me l" and mailed it to the
committee. Gen. Logan is canvassing the , State
of Illinois for Abraham • Lincoln, just as he has
ken canvassing the State of Georgia. .
.. - J Major-General Rosecrans.
General Rosecrans, who probably understands
the present condition of affairs as well as any man
in the army, says :
"Wherever they (the Rebele) have the power,
they drive before them into their ranks the South
ern people as they would also drive us. Tinst
them not. Were they able they , would invade and
destroy us without mercy. Absolutely assured of
these things, .1 am amazed that. anyone could think
of 'peace on any terms.' He who entertains the
sentonent is fit only to be a slave; he who utters it
at this time ts, moreover, a traitor to his country,
who deserves the scorn and contempt of all honor
able men." •
Major-General Schofield.
This General has been claimed for McClellan,
but in a recent speech at Freeport, Illinois, his
native.place, he'spoke as follows: • •
"When - the war broke out I was in a condition
to be of iminediate service to that country which
had educated me, and to which I owed all I had
or could hope to be. I was in the-regular army'.
Many of my associates and I parted company
then.. Many of them became traitors. For me,
my platform was then; ever has been since; and
is now, the Union—undivided nationality at what
ever cost and at all hazards. When I was after
wards in command in Missouri, told the Rebels.
there that the soil in Missouri belonged .to the
' United Statee and not to and though It
may become necessary to kill every Rebel on that
soil and destroy every dollar's'worth of property
of every: name and. nature thereupon, it must be
done and the soil- reserved to the 'Union to which
it biilong,ed. Such was my platform then; inch it
is now. The Federal Union mustbe preserved in
its integrity: We hear now-a-days a great deal
said about the Constitution: Let it be revered.—
Touch it not without good reason. But may not
even this sacred •instrument be changed, I' need
.be, to save the life of a great nation? •
We now have at the head of our armies Gener
, al,, whO are able to command them. At the head
of the nation we have a man who has all the
while through these storinyseas, steadily, honest
ly and faithfully held the helm straight on to the
shores of the Union. The clouds are now break
ing and we can see—id the distance, to be sure,
but still we can see—through the.opening in the
clouds, the'green shores of peace andunion,whith
er we are bound. All we want is to keep steadily
on.' Give our armies the men they need, be uni
ted in their support, keep the same honest man,
with'his. firm and steady hand at , the, helm, and
all will be well • , -
Major-General Kearney.
Major-General Philip Kearney was one of the
real heroes of the early_campaig,n. A gentleman
of wealth, an officer of unrivalled education and
experience, he gave all his advantages and talents
to the war, and fell a martyr to his cause at the
battle of • Chantilly. His end was. embittered by
the reflection that he' fell a victim to incapacity,
which rendered the efforts of brave men fruitless.
In several well known letters he wrote home that
the campaign was "being fought by dribletts,"
that the army, was "under the control of imbecil
ity or something worse,' : ' and that, soldier as be
was, he could almost wish he was back again to
his. quiet home in New Jersey. One of his letters
closes With the memorable declaration, "I tell
you that McClellan is burned out I" When, after
the victory at Malvern Fill, won while Gen. Mc-
Clellan was on board the gunboat, the order to.
retreat at Harrison's Landing was received, Gen.:
Kearney said : -
"I, Philip Kearney, en old officer, enter my sol-•
emn protest against this order for. ,retreat we
ought, instead of retreating, to follow up the en
emy and take Richmond. And in full view of all
the responsibility of such• a declaration, I say to
you a/1, such an order can only be prompted by
cowardicen
i or treason ' •

Major-General T: F. Meagher.
General Thomas. Panels Moagh e r, the Irish
exile and patriot, the gallant leader of the Irish.

McClellan has - been Called -"a soldier and .a
gentleman" bitiven his enemies, and we do riot
wish to detract; from the little meedof prabrothat'
may be.thns accordedtim. But We cannot feel ''
mach respect for the gentleman that deserts
with
, country in her hour of need. and leagues ,
traitors - wad rebels againathis country's honor.—
Yea,
even against its very existence... Nor can wel
honor the soldier that leaves the post of duty in
the hour of peril i deserts his flag in the. fateof
the enemy and turns his backupon - his comrades
l
in arms,, while they were inanfully - struggling_.
against a powerful 'enemy. Yet' 'all - these, and
more, to his shame, - did George B. do.
•He never displayed even the bull-dog miality.of 1
bravery on the battle-field.` He never gavO evi- I
dente ofmoral courage to animate his noble army.
He nets
err exhihited one t h emy in hana
ling h ny,e marshaling ,, against the
foe. His very presence was the great , source of ,
their weakness and blunders. .' • • ,
In changing his "baser fremthe front of Wasb-
ington to the Peninsula,lae started with the meat
palpable of blunders. He refused to fight John - - ,
son, on a, fair field, behind the ,Rapidan when he
could bring 150,000 men against 40,000,. but he
divided his own. Briny and combined his •enemies
and offered battle to Johnson, Magruder and Hu
ger,
"with only . 100;000 ' men, while they could' ,
muster.6o,ooo,behind the strong works of York-,
town. , .. ,
He wasted two 'weeks Of precious tithe in idle d
parades - on the fields of . Hampton,
while Mavr . n-
derheld his long lines aeross the Peninsula ;nth
only, 7,500 men. He. delayed ,to move against
Yortown until'Magruder was reinforced to nearly
15,000 men, and, then spent one month in a fruit
less siege and wasted over 15,000 brave. men in
the mud of the ditches. He allowed his enemy to
escape when.they. were in a "trap." He hesitated
to pursue them after the battle of Williamsburg
when the gates of the rebel capital were open and
his way was clear and inviting. He wasted half
his army with' the agues and feVers of the fatal
Chickahominy, while delay was his ruin and the
'salvation of his enemy. .i.fte had- all to lose and
'nothing to gain by delay, but his'enemies had all_
to gain and nothing to lose by time: • -
He divided his army, and invited Jolmson to
crush him in detail at the Battle of Seven Pines„l
A single Corps was left to the mercy of a wag
and watching foe, without support or communi
cation:wksiitiv
- th the main army or its commander. I
He ex El his line of battle full twenty miles
with both win s "in the, air," while 'a superior en
emy had accun ulated, during,his fatal delay, be
fore him. When Lee hurled his furious legions
in overwhelming mass - upon his right wing he
left Fitz John Porter to struggle with 20,000 men
against 60,000, At the battle of , Gaines's Mill
he left 35,000 to bear the brunt of a decisive, bat
tle againit 100,000 under. Lee in person. ' Yet Mc -
Clellan was not there; all his "energies were - bent,
on retreat.". . , • • .
He had Lee's rear and the Rebel capital in his
power when the Whole rebel army was across the
.Chickahominy and the army of , the was
between them and Richmond. Magruder affirms
this in his official report.', .
He left a small - rear guard under the noble
Sumner of only 20,000 men to check , the .advanc
ing army of• Lee, bu ' t'all McClellan's - " energies "
were bent on tight. When Sumner hurled back
annihilated the Corps of McLaw's,he asked, per
mission to .." drive them into - the, Chicka,bommy
but his flying superior ,erdered—"the rear guard
must follow the army,'? He was not present when
the furious 'battle of Glendale, or 'White Oak
Swamp
,waii fought, where the Corps of . A. P. Hill
-andiLongstreet wore annihilated; Sumner, McCall,
Hientzleroan,Meade and tither heroes fought back
- the fierce hordes that pressed on event side, but
McClellan's energies ere bent on flight.
He was not at the famous Battle of Malvern Hill.
,I have thiS from the most reliable authority, from
one V/h6 snit him, Gon. George B. McClellan cow
ering on the gnnbcrat, three miles from the battle
field, while the guns of his noble - and devoted ar- 1
my- were thundering on the foe and shaking the.,
very river with their, awful Tellies. He was not
present in a single engagement with the enemy'
from Yorktown to blalvern.i. He did not person
ally direct a single battle in all this memorable
and disastrous campaign: He ordered the army
to continue the retreat after the glorious victory
of Malvern, when the: entire rebel army was anni
hilated, and not a single Corps, or whole division
could be forthed against him: Stunner shed tears
of shame, and the chivalrous Kearney boldly, de
clared that such an order could only be given by
a "coward or a traitor." . • • .
He disobeyed the orders of his superiors and
brought on the ruin of Pope's army . of Virginia;
by delay and inactivity, though reinforced by
Burnside with 20,000 men. -. •
He sought to turn . the disgrace of his defeat,
the disaster to his army,. from his own incapacity
to the shoulders of the Administration. ' His folly
and procrastination brought ruin and disgrace
on all he could control': but he was not satisfied
with the magnitude of the disaster. He • whindd
and grumbled, 'because Washington wfis'not u
covered and the troopathat held back the. "foot
cavalry", of the impetuous Jackson, sent to . swell
the hecatombs that :were sacrificed to his folly
-and ambition; He would have .added. to the , list
of our misfortunes the sack and ~ plunder of the
National Capital, and not only secured defeat and
shame to.himself and army; but disgrace to the
people who had so unreservedly given him their
affections. To crown the column of his infamous
trinmphs and roar a, pyrainid- of his blunders he
would now render abortive all our immense sacri
fice of blood and treasure and sell himself and his
• country to the enemies of his people and mankind.
