account of a roceut interview with Mr.

the latter io regard to tbe consequences
wbicb would follow the adoption of tbe
war policy urged by tbe friends of Gen.
M'Clcllan. We quote from tbe Judge.
"Mr. President, said El Gov. Randall,
"why cau't you sack seciujiou, and play
beruiii for a fortnight f It would re-iuvi-gorate
you."
"Ay," said the President, "but two or
tbreo weeks would do mo oi good. I can
not fly from my thoughts my solicitude
for this great eouutry follows me wherever
I go. I dou'l think it is personal vanity
or ambition, though I am not free from
these infirmities, hut I can not but fuel
that tbe weal or woe of this great nation
will be decided io November. There ia

Dcmooratic party but tbal must result in

the permauent destruction of the Union.
"But, Mr. President, Gun. M'CIWlan is

Democrats to put down luis rebellion by

long before tbe present policy was inaugu

to propose lo me to return to slavery tbe

without tbe uso ot tbe emancipation policy,
and every other policy calculated to wea
ken tbo moral and physical force of Ibo
rebellion, freedom bas given us two
hundred tbousaod mon raised on Southern
soil. It will give us more yet. Just so
much it bas subtracted from the enemy,
aod, instead of alienating the South, there
are now evidence of a fraternal feeling
growing up between our men and tbe rank
and file of tbe rebel Eoldicrs. Let my en
emies prove to tba country that the de
struction of slavery is not necessary to a
restoration of tbe Union. I will abide
tbe issue."
I saw that the President was not a mere
(joter, but 8 Elan of deep convietioas, of
abiding faith in justice, truth and Provi-
denee. Hi voice was pleasant, bis man
ner earnest and emphatic. As be warmed
with his theme, his mind grew to tbe
magnitude of bis body. I felt I was in
the presence of the great guiding intellect
of the age, aod that Ihoao huge Atlantean
shoulders were fit to "bear tbe weight of
mightiest monarchies." His transparent
honesty, republican simplicity, bis gush
ing sympathy for those who offered their
lives for tbe country, bis utter forgetful
nesa of self in bis concern for it welfare,
could not but inspire me with confidence
tbat be was Heaven's instrument to con
duct his people through this sea of blood
to Canaan of peace and freedom.

Very respectfully,
Your Obedient Servant,
UKouoe It. M'Clellan,
Major General Commanding.
Mark the fact tbat Gen. M'Clellan here
distinctly assorts, months before even tbe
preliminary proclamation of emancipation
was istued, tbat tbo "rijht of tbo Govern
ment to appropriate permanently to it
owo servioe claims to slave labor, should
ba asserted." Oa also reoommends tha
emancipation of "all lha slave withia a
particular State," "upoo ground of mili
tary necnttty." Now, wa ask tbw fair
minded Democrat, if Abraham Lincoln
bas done more with regard to the negro
than Gen. M'Clellan recommended fully
two years ago? lie bas armed able
bodied slaves tbat they might fight for tho
Union. Tbat was merely asserting "tbe
right of the Government lo appropriate
permanently to its own service olaims to
slave labor." He has deolared the slaves
of certain rebellious State to be free.
Wbat is tbat but extending tbe principle
of appropriating slave labor to "all tbo
slave withia a particular State, tbu
working manumission in inch State?"
Aod all tbia bas been done ,by Abraham
Lincoln, as recommended by Geo.M'Clcl
lan, "npon grounds of military necessity."
Two month after tbe Harrison's Land
ing lettor wis writton,lhe President issued
tbo preliminary proclamation of emanci
pation, and at once tbe whole Democratic
party snuffed danger ahead. "Slate
Rights" were about to be invaded ; "nig
gers" wore to swarm throughout the en
tire North ; tod tbe war was to be per
verted into an "Abolition crusade." Tbat
party to-day wields do argument more vig
orously against the Administration than
tbat which is afforded it by the arming of
negroes and tbo freeing of the slave of
Rebels. And yet every act of President
Lineoln in relation not Only tO the slave I
of Rebel but also of Loyal States, i en
dorsed by tbo terms of Gen. M'Clellan'
letter, who is now tbe candidate for the
Presidency of that same Democratic party.
The author of tbe principal arbitrary ar
rest of the war, Ihe first official to recom
mend a draft, and tbe advocate of nejro
emancipation such is the candidate of
the Democracy wbo are opposed to til
these act of "tyranny and usurpation !"
Verily, if ever there was a party in Ibis
country tbat bas completely stultified it
self, it is the Copperhead Peace pr.rty of
1804.
