HARRISBURG, PA
Monday Afternoon, November 10,1888.
THE REMOVAL OF GEN. McCLELLAN.
The announcement, to-day, of the removal
of Gen. McClellan was received by the people
and the military in this city, with the satisfac
tion and confidence with which other announce
ments of the action of the administration hale
been hailed. By those who are determined to
be dissatisfied with the management of the war
on the part of the administration, the fact was
bitterly denounced. On the other hand, loyal
men, who have confidence in the President,
and who rely on his discrimination, regard the
removal of Gen. McClellan as only a change
which is made of men—a change which will
not affect a principle —a change whichhas been
made on several (aerial, ns, and as George B.
McClellan is only a man, surely his removal
and the substitution of another in, whom the
army, the administration and the people can
repose confidence, and with whom our cause
will progress triumphantly, neither, he or his
friends can have any reason to complain. He
brought no reputation to the great position
which he was' called a-sume. What he
gain, d in that position, it is yet fm the country
to decide The only men who will endeavor to
turn this judirioue change to mischief will
be those whose sympathies have all been ad
verse to the loyal cause, and who for political
effect, would seize and use any pretext calcula
ted to impair the confidence of the people in
the federal government. such as these, how
eve., will not have expended their fury before
the armies of the Republic will be led to vic
tory, and the Republic itself placed beyond the
danger of their machinations and malevolence.
The announcement which conveys McClel
lan's removal, assures the public that recent
investigations of a most unexpected character
are the cause of this step on the part of the
Administrati n. Comment on this would be
premature. It is not our business to conjecture
the cait.,e. Sufficient for us to know that the
step has been taken at a moment when some
action was necessary for the success of our mili
tary operations, and that those who make this
removal c wnot possibly have any other object
In view than that of ensuring the safety the
Republic. We are not now struggling for the
rise or fall of men. Rival leaders, however
important they may become to their personal
friends, are of no consequence to the great is
sues in which the nation is involved, and
therefore, he who cannot sacrifice a personal or
a political preference in this contest, has noth
ing worthy within himself of being sacrificed
to the good and glory of his country.
It is confidently stated by the New York
papers that Major General Burnside has been
placed in permanent command of the Army of
the Potomac, and that General Hooker was to
have taken the field to-day, next in position in
command General Burnside is an active and
energ.,tic soldier, whose deeds have shone with
resplendent glory in the southern campaign,
and who has on all occasions given evidence of
great energy, vigor, skill and capacity as a sol
dier. Gen. Hooker is also competent and ac
tive ; a man of action and of nerve, who fights
all his battles with the deliberate purpose of
winning victories for his country, instead of
mere renown for himself.
As the successor of Gen. McClellan, Gen.
Burnside brings to his command reputation and
ability won and tested on the hardest fought
battle fields of the continent. His enthusiasm
and his action—hie skill and his enterprise, will
speedily win us victories of the most important
character, unless he is embarrassed and thwarted
by combinations within and without the army,
of jealous politicians and military cliques. But
let us trust that against all this he will guard
by his promptness and the energy which always
seem es success.
GRAND RALLY FOR UNION, LIBERTY
AND LAW
Under this head, our Pittsbttrg exchanges of
Saturday announce a grand rally of the people
of the country, to be held in that city on the
26th day of November next. Of course the
object of such an assemblage is patriotic, and
therefore we are constraint d to commend the
seal of those who are engaged in the move
ment. But whether it will result in any prac
tical benefit to the administration, at this time,
is a question which we think should have been
seriously discussed before the projectors of this
meeting issued their call. If, from any reason
of business or otherwise, this convention proves
a failure, of course the effort will be to . blame
the administration with having lost favor with
the people, and that consequently the popular
confidence and enthusiasm are withdrawn from
Its support. And if the meeting should even
bs a success, the only result that we can dis
cover as likely to accrue from its deliberations,
la the probability of creating new issues in
hasty discussions, and thus burden instead of
relieve, and embarrass instead of accelerate the
administration in Its present Herculean efforts
to crush rebellion. The administration at
Washington has a polley—a well defined, com
prehensive and gold policy, which now chal
lenges the support of every loyal man in the
land, and every intelligent, christian lover of
human progress and friend of civil liberty in the
world. That policy is so simple, clear and
practical that Its diseusaion by any convention
would have more the tendency to mar its
proportions or impair its architectural grandeur,
than add a single attraction - to its beauty,
strength or endurance. It needs the support
of blows and not the endorsement of words. It
asks for energy, not eloquence—armed men and
not enraptured orations.
But, if our Pittsburg friends are convinced
that ihiy can accomplish any good for the great
cause of the country, by this demonstration,
we hope that the meeting will' be commensu
rate In numbers with the importance of the pur
poses which they seek to promote. We would
suggest that one cf the objects of the meeting
be to raise a brigade of those present, and that
some plan be agreed upon at the time, with h
will subject every man present, liable to military
duty, to a fair chance of becoming one of the pri
vates in such a brigade. Such an arrangement
would be a practical tender of support to the
national administration, which the most elo
gent orator or cogent - drawer of resolutions
could not equal.
THE OLD AND THE NEW REGIMENTS.
From all accounts, and by the inferences
which we naturally draw from the effects of the
recent marches, sieges, countermarches, battles
and retreats, the condition of some of our old
regiments in the field is most deplorable, so
far as numbers are concerned. Many of them
are reduced absolutely to mere skeletons. Field
officers are left without men sufficient to form
a respectable dress parade. Line officers have
only squads within their control and command,
and while such is the reduced condition of the
number of privates in many of our tegirm uts,
their organizations, so far as regimental and
line officers, is always maintained complete. It
matter's not how reduced a company may be,
the poets of the officers are never vacant. If
but a corporal guard remains, the same officers
that were necessary to command and lead a
company recruited to its maximum strength,
are in commission and of course in receipt of
pay. The same comparison applies to the field
officers. If a regiment is reduced in numbers
below the force of a battalion, the number of
regimental officers is still the same, the ex
pence to the country the same, as if the full
force of men necessary to the filling out of so
many regiments were in the service. Here is a
point which cannot much longer be passed over
in silence, by those who have any regard for
the economy of war ; and while we are urging
the government to the organization of new
regiments, and the putting of more men into
the field, it would be well to inquire whether
the same men could not be put into the field
and used with evenore efficiency, by being
put into the old vegi outs, than they can be
while commanded by green officers and moved
as a whole, perfectly independent of :them
selves. Every sensible soldier will at (Ace ad
mit this to be true. The regiments in the field,
too, in order to be brought to their full strength,
could absorb not only the nine months' men
recently recruited, but they could have ex
hausted all the drafted men for the same pur
pose. By organizing the nine months' merlin
distinct regiments, and also doing the same
with the drafted men, we do ndt acquire addi
tional strength with our additional regiments.
All that we gain is additional burdens in the
way of expense. For instance, the pay of the
officers of a regiment, field and line, per year,
amounts to $68,296. This only embraces what
the paymaster disburses to hock officers person
ally. If we included trains, clerks, horses,
&c., it would increase the sum at least a third
more. Thus is expense continued, in all cases,
as long as the organization of a company er
regiment is continued, and each organizations
are invariably continued, while there is a gutird
inexistence to support a regimental flag, or, a
man left to obey the summons of a corporal. And
thus we have any number of officers in the field,
with their company and regimental organiza
tions complete, but still lacking the men to
fill out their commands. These officers have
experience and ability, They devoted thidr
commands to hard fighting and reduced their
forces in many well fought battle fields. The
question then is, and we must look it fairly in
the face, are these men to be lett without
adequate commands? Are they to be forced
to become drones on the service, while the raw
and valuable material which the government is
now gathering, is wastedin the hands of totally
incompetent and inexperienced men? The old
regiments should and must be recruited. The
veterans who are left in those decimated or
ganizations must not be set aside for raw men. If,
such becomes the policy, the service and. the
country will both suffer. Aside from the ne
cessities of economy, and the argument of
placing our raw recruits not only in the com
mand of experienced men, the interests of the
recruit himself demand that he should not be
Fatal where he will only be made a Buddha
Any man of common sense will see the advan
tage of being commanded by a man of expe
rience. Any man who desires to become useful
to himselt as well as . to the Government, will
prefer the leadership of a soldier instead: of
one who seeks position or command for the
profits it yields instead of the actual service.he
can thus render to his country. We believe
that by the fair agitation of this subject, much
good will be derived from the citizen soldier
and the State. Therefore we invite the soldier
to its discussion.
Tan ILLINOIS SONS or TEmPsamics, while
astembled in grand convention, recently, pass
ed a series of resolutions in which they strongly
approved the President's policy of emancipa
tion and confiscation. Among the same series
of resolutions, we find the following:
Resolved 4th, That the conduct of some su
perior military officers, in indulging in drunken
debaucheries, is alike disgraceful to the army
and the nation, and that some of our disastrous
defeats, in oar own belief, can be traced to in
toxication on the field of deadly conflict ; and
further, that with the temperance and all oth
er advocates of sound morals, we add our
voice to demand that all such officers should be
dismissed from command, and sober, loyal
men placed in their stead.
AN INDIAN FUNBRAL. -A correspondent of
the St. Louis Democrat, writing from Maryville.
Kansas, gives a wild description of. the funeral
of two Indians who had been murdered in that
vicinity. He pronounces the ceremonies a
great demonstration of sorrow. A large num
ber of Indians, of all ages, gathered AroOnd
the grave, and cut themselves with knives, and
ran sharp pointed sticks through their aims
and legs, and howled and yelled like demos.
This is the strange way , that they illtyci of
showing how greatly they deplore the death of
any one of position among them.

Removal of Gen. M'Clellan.
EIRADQUARTIRB ARMY OP ME POTOMAC,
Seism, Saturday, noon.
The order relieving General H'elellan from
the command of the Atmy of the Potomac was
received at headquarters at eleven o'clock last
night. It was entirely unexpected to all, and
therefore every one was taken by surprise. On
its receipt the command of the whole army was
immediately turned over to General Burnside.
General H'Clellan and his staff will leave to
morrow for Trenton, where he is ordered to re
port. The order was.delivered to him by Gen.
Buckingham in person: His last official set
was the issuing of an address to the troops in a
few words, informing them that the c mmand
devolved upon General Burnside, and taking
leave of them.
There is no other news worthy of mention
excepting the army is in motion.
Letter from General Halleok to the
The Grounds foi General McCle
VpettialDet patch to the Prof; j
The following important correspondence will
perhaps give some of the reasons which actua
ted our War Department in recommending the
President to make a change in the command of
the Army of the Potomac : .
LETTER FROM IENERAL HALLECK.
HEADQUARTER OF THR ARMY,
Washington, Oct. 28, 1862. }
lion. E. AL Stanton, Secretary of Ifar:—Sra :
In reply to the general Interrogatories contain
ed in your letter of yesterday, I have the honor
to report :
First. That requisitions (or supplies to the
army under General McClellan are made by his
stuff officers on the Chiefs of Bureaus here; that
is, the Quartermaster applies by his Chief Quar
termaster on Quartermaster General ; for com
missary supplies by his Chief Commissary on
Commissary General, &c.
No such requisitions have been, to my know
ledge, wade upon the Secretary of War, and
tlOll , O upon the Qeneral-in-Chief.
Second. On several occasions, General Mc-
Clellan has telegraphed me that his army was
deficient in certain supplies. All these telegrams
were immediately referred to the heads of bu
reaus with orders to report. It was ascertained
that in every instance the requisitions have
been immediately filltd, except where the Quar
termaster General had been obliged to send
from Philadelphia certain articles of clothing,
tents, etc., not having a full supply here.
There has ria been, so far as I could ascer
tain, any neglect or delay, in any department
or bureau, in. issuitig all the supplies asked , fur
by General McClellan, or by the officers of his
staff.
Delays have occasionally occurred in forward
lug supplies by railroad on account of the
crowded condition of, the railroad depots; or of
a want of a sufficient duilbd of cirri ; but,
whenever notified of this fact, agents have been
sent out to remove . the difficulty under the ex
cellent superintendence of General Haupt. I
think those delays have been lees frequent and
of shot ter Agratiort than is usually the case with
freight trains. Au army of the size of that
under General McClellan will frequently be for
some days without the supplies it has asked for,
on account of . a neglect in making timely requi
sitions for them, and unavoidable delays in for
warding them and distributing them to the dif
ferent brigades and ;regiments.
From all the information that 1 can obtain, I
am of the opinion that the requisitions from
that army have , been filled more promptly, and
that the men, as a general rule, have been bet
ter supplied, than in • ihe case of our armies
operating in the West. Tue latter have opera
ted at much greater distances from the 'sources
of supplies, and have had far less facilities fur
transportation. In fine, tbelieve that no armies
in the world in campaigning have been more
promptly or btter supplied than ours.
2 hird. Seou after the battle of Antietam,
General McClellan was urged to give me infor
mation of his intended movements, in order
that if, he moved between the enemy and. Wash
ington the reinforcements could be sent from
this place, On the first of October, finding that
he purposed to operate from Harper's Ferry, 'I
urged him to cross the liver at once and give
battle to the enemy, pointing out to him the
disadvantages of delaying till the autumn rains
had swollen the' Potomac and impaired the
roads. On the 6th of October he was perempto
rily ordered to cross the Potomac and give batde to the
enemy, or drive hini South. 1 said to him: "Tour
army must move now, while the roads are in good
condition." It will be observed that three
weeks have elapsed since that order was given.
Fourth, In my opinion there has been no such
want of supplies in the army wader General McClel
lan as , to prevent his compliance with my orders to ad
vance upon the enemy.
Had be moved his army on the south side of,
the Potomac ; he could have receilved his Owl
plies almost as 'readily as by remaining inadive'on
the north side.
On the seventh of October, in a tale
grain in regard to his intended movements,
Gen. McClellan stated dam he would require at
least three days to supply the first, fifth, and
sixth corps ; that they needed shoes, and other
indispensable articles of clothing, as welt as
shelter tents. No complaint was made to me
that his army requisitions had not been filled,
and it was inferred from his language that.
was t•rtly waiting for the distribition • of his
supplies.
Oa the eleventh of October he telegraphed
to me that a portion .1 his supplies sent by
railroad had been delayed. -As already statOd,
agents were immediately sent from here to "in
vestigate this c,,mplaint, and they reported that
ever., thing tad gone forward on the same date,
the 11th.
General McClellan spoke of many of his
horses being broken doWn by fatigue. On the
12th of October ho complained that the rate of
supply was only one hundrediand
.Wry horses
per week fur his entire army th;:re aud in front
of Washington.
I immediately directed the Quartermaster
General to'inquire Into this matter, and rePOrt
why a larger supply was not furnished to Geo.
McOlellan.
FORTRESS MONROR, Nov. 8
=I
Secretary of War.
lan's Removal
WesiimotON, Nov. 9
Gen. Meigs roperted to we, on the 14th of
October, that !he aveyase issue of horses to
General McClellan's army in the field and in
front of Washington, for the previous six
weeks, hsd been 1,456 per week, or 8,764 in
In addition he ,ep.•rted to me that a large
number of mules had been supplied, and that
the number of these animals with General
McClellan's army on the Upper Potomac was
over 3,100
He also repurted to me that be wee then
sendiug the army all the horses hu could pro
cure.
On the 15th of October, General McClellan
stated, in regard to General Meigs' report that
he had filled every requisition for shoes and
clothing: l'General Meigs may nave ordered
these articles to be forwarded ; but they might
as sell remain in New York or Philadelphia,
so far as my army is concerned." I immedi
ately called Gen. Helga' attention to this ap
parent neglect of his department.
On the 25th of October, he reported as the
result of his Investigation that 4,800 pairs of
boots nod shoes had been received by the
quartermaster of.McCllellan's army at-Harper's
Ferry, Frederick, and := Hagerstown. Twenty
thousand pairs were at "Harper's Ferry Depot
on the 21st, and that ten thousand more were
on their way, and fifteen thousand more had
been ordered.
Colonel Ingalls, aid-de-camp and chief of staff
to General McClellan, telegraphed on the 25th
as follows "The suffering for want of clothing
is exaggerated, I think, and certainly might
have been avoided by timely requisitions by the
regimental and urigade commanders." On the
24th of October he telegraphed to Quartermaster
General Meigs that the clothing was not de
tained in tbe tan at the. depots. " Such com
plaints are groundless. The fact is the clothing
arrives and is issued, but more is still wanted.
I have ordered more than would seem necessary from
any data furnished me, and 1 beg to remind you
that you have Ira% s very- promptly met my
requisitions. far to clothing is cojicerned,
our department is not at fault. It provides as
soon as due notice is given. I can forsee no
time when an army of over. 100,000 men will
not call for clothing and other articles."
In regard to General McClellan's means of
promptly communicating the wants of his army
to me, or to the proper bureaus of the War De
partment, I report that, in addition to the ordi
nary mails, he has been in hourly communication
with Washington by telegraph.
It is due to General Meigs that I should sub
mit herewith a copy of a telegram received by
him from General McClellisTa.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
W. HALLECK, General-in-Chief.
FROM 11.' MILLAR 'l4 HEADQUARTERS -TO BRIGADIER
ONNIIILA_L MEIGB
Your despatch of this date is received. I
have never intended, in any letter or despatch,
to make any accusation against yourself or your
Department for not furnishing or :orwarding
clothing as rapidly as it was prisaible for you to
do so. I believe everythinghriseden done that could
be done in this respect. l i tie idea that I have tried
to cenve! was that certain portions of the com
mand were without clothing, and that the army
would not move until it was supplied.
G. B. McCLELLAN, Major General.
Later From Nashville.
NO ATTACK ON THE CITY
the nebels Retreating to Chattanooga
No assault had been made on Nashville up
to Friday evening last, and nothing bad been
heard of Gen. Polk's army.
On Wednesday night, the rebel pickets on

Ville pikes began skirmishing. Eight hundred
of Stoke's cavalry charged upon Stearn's caval
ry, and drove them within turee miles of Frank
lin In 'the meanwhile a rebel force, supposed
to be under Morgan, made a dash on the new
railroad bridge north of Nashville, but were
repulsed. The Federal loss in the various
skirmishes was one killed, thii teen wounded,
and three missing.
Gen McCook's advance reached Nashville on
the afternoon of the 4th inst.
It is reporte:i that the rebels have evacuated
Murfreesboro' and McMinnville, and gone to
Chattanooga ; and also that. Gen. JO:3 Johnston
has arrived at Chattanooga and assumed the
command of the Department of Tennessee and
