The Union al It Was,

GEN. ROSECIMNS,
The Administration may have reasons
for its treatment of Gen. Rosso'Luis, but
that he is the cowardly, corrupt imbecile
which some of the Abolition papers are
charging him with being, is shamefully
untrue. Up, until a week ago, he was the
particular pet of our Abolitionists ; " old
ROBY " was the familiar and endearing
name they delighted in sounding ; but
suddenly " old ROSY " is abandoned, and
in its stead we have coward, paltroon,
drunkard, opium eater and imbecile, sub
stituted. What has produced this extra
ordinary change ? A week ago Gen. ROSE
MANS was the very embodiment of a suc
cessful soldier, now he is little better than
the vilest copperhead.
"But yesterday, the won' cf Caesar might
Rave stood against the world; now lies he there
And none so poor to do him reverence,"
We begin to believe the charge made by
WENDELL PHILLIPS, that the present Ad
ministration is but a committee to super
intend the next Presidential election. As
soon as an officer in the army begins to
attract popular attention, away he goes ;
and immediately the cue comes from
Washington to the Abolition press through
out the country to crush him with detrac
tion. Fear of the popularity of FREMONT
among the radicals, was the cause cf his
being sent-into retirement ; fear of the es
tablished fame of Mc C [ALLAN, prompted
them to scheme and lie for his prostrltion,
and now we have RosEcrucs, a man
after their own moulding, and a con
vert to radical Alfolitioniam, suddenly
decapitated, and his pursuers resorting to
most infamous expedients to load his name
with infamy. If Gen. RosecitAxs be guiiiv
of one-tenth of the charges made against
him he shontd be subjcted to the rigor ci
the law ; but the poor man has been guilty
of nothing ; he is merely dissatisfied with
the manner in which the Administration
is conducting hostilities, and hence his
removal. As pro.if of this we copy the
f.illowing from a Cincinnati correspondent
of the Courier des EVAts Unit'
Persons who are on intimate terms with Gener
al
ROSVCRANS declare that he is greatly discour
aged about the war. This is not because he con
siders the sctaern armies invincible, but be
cause he believes that the seceded states cln
never be brought back by the rigorous po'icy
which the Government has adopted. Ile has
never taken any Part in the proceeding' of A N
DREW Jon NSON, the military Governor of lennes
s2e, who has succeeded in converting to
secession all people vrha had any hopes of the
Union. Himself perfecly disinterested, he looks
with disgtut upon the shameful traffic which is
going on under the mask of patriotism. When
he looks around him he sees men moved by n❑
sort' of motives, more or less decent, excepting
honor and the love of country. Some are fig,.th g
from am, icon, others from avarice; to the la ter
the conquest ( f a country means only pillage ar.d
cheap cotton; the former aro jealous (f their
iperii,rs and their ego's, and are delighted
with any reverse which may overtake them.
Profoundly he: eit an religious, Rosecsi.,,,
egardi these suectaclez with bitter aversion.
His religious feelings have grown upon hint in
L. roportion to the o:rms.'s and the intrigue. ,
which he is impotent to prevent : and in mvstical
hope; of another world he seeks relief from the
corruptions ( f the present. He no longer fights
with any ardor, but simply from a sense of
teens-duty.
considering each victory a nses3 waste of blood.
He has no confidence in his successes, cons . d r ring
that they aro followed by the swlrl. of Wrds

come to me from a person very dear to Boar

THE CHIIIIIBERSBIIRG REPOSITORY
The editor of the above named sheet,
the presumed conscience•keeper of Gov.
CI7STIY, recently made a savage attack
upon the Gazette of this pity, which has
aroused the spirit of our respectable and i
sedate neighbor. Yesterday it struck
back at its assailant, and, in doing so
planted a few vigorous blows upon the
front of that lazaroni concern, the Pitts..
burgh ConimerciaL Tne Gazette concludes
as follows

very pl duly shows For his wcrst acts, this man
has been invariably responsible. lie has, indeed,
been his evil genius throughout, and no higher

This is in Mr. Virrt.t.rasis'l.e,t vein; it not

that it can, because of CURTIN'S success,
intimidate Mr. WlLLtems it is mistaken ;
for however he may differ from us upon
public questions, we cannot deny him
honesty of purpose, indomitable moral
courage and unquestioned ability.

LEE'S CAMPAIGN
A Complete View of the Leto Rebel
Movements-The Ilakleet of the Ad
tdalee.
ARMY POTOMAC, WAMRENTOX, VA.,
Thursday, Oct. 22, 1863.
General Character of the Campaign.
The Army of the Potomac has at length
settled down, after its great race up and
down Virginia. The whirl, the bustle,
and confusion of the backward and the
forward movement have so far given place
to calmer moods, that it is possible now to
survey with some satisfaction the series of
complicated and exciting events whose
relations and upshop it was at the time
impossbile to grasp.
It most be acknowledged that the cam•
paign of the past fortnight has not been
one that has brought much glory to either
army. The operations, with the excep•
tion of a variety of skirmishes and the
one considerable brush at Bristoe, have
all been of the kind included under the
term strategy—that is, marches and ma.
nceuvres out of sight of the enemy. The
rebels have inflicted no great damage on
us. In truth, the real results of
this invasive movement on the part of
Gen. Lee are to be sought for not so much
in anything that has been accomplished
here in Virginia, as in the relations oil
operations here to the whole field of war.
In this regard it remains to be seen how
far the progress and fortunes of the war
will be effected by the late rebel move
ment. At present it assumes the char
acter of a diversion in favor of operations
in the Southwest. There is not the shadow
of a doubt that a considerable portion of
the troops with which Lee threw back
Meade are now on their way to reinforce
the rebel army in Tennessee for active
work against some portion of the great
line now being held by the Union forces,
from Chattanooga to the Gaps of Vir
ginia.
Rebel Theory of Lee's Forward Noce
men t.
I have had frequent opportunity of
learning the rebel theory of Lee's late
movement, having conversed with many
citizens of the country through whi2h
have, during the past two or three days,
passed in the wake of Leo's army, and
they all tell the same story. 1t is that the
movement was made for the purpose of
throwing the Army of the Potomac back
on Wcshington and then utterly destroy
tog the railroad connecting Meade's army,
on the line of the Rapidan with its base,
thus relieving Richmond from the sts.nding
menace which our occupation of that front
of operations held out, exhausting the
season during which it is ) , ossible for us to
makela Fail campaign, and throwing us
over till next Spring, when t,l_,•n
of our army and prospective• r
lions in tlic Southwest would secure th , tr,
peace.
These views were stated to me as tho;
of the rebel leaders by (among man)
others) an intelligent and cultivated Eng
lishman named Green, who lives oi tit
style of an English gentleman on a charm
ing estate at Greenwich, a few miles north
of Warrenton, and with whom Geis. Lee
and Ewell, and their respective itaits
stayed last Sunday, while on the retreat.
Real Object orate CampalFre
Such was the theory given out by th,
rebels on their backward movement:. A -1,1
though perhaps not the whole truth. it i;
doubtless, a large element in it. A plan
of campaign such or , that on which tier).
Lee lately entered ,or braces, det,',ll,
a complex of aims and there can be no
doubt, that, if the rebel General ~ iteri
had been able to plant himself in a fri.Vor•
able position on Meade's communicat , ,Th e ,
he would have given battle. The dee
perate dashes which they made et en
trains show, too, hoe ,reedy they ...ere
for booty. With the , . addenda we have,
perhaps, the whole of the series el
motives that prompted Leo to the I,.rwarl
movement. There is No pre,blhiley the..
he ever purposed ercs.ing the P.,.rnv
for a fresh invasion of Maryland or I'-nn
sylvania. There is, 011 the contrary, r
great certainty that he did riot de,ign
a movement, for his army brought ?leper'
(eon train. a fact in itself c-nrieeire
against any such design, and further cur
roborated by the limier d quantity of ptl r
plies he had with him.
As to the reselt of the movement, th•
rebels did net succeed in any considera
ble captures ; the umverrents of the lieu
tenants on whom Lee relied to execut e 11,
plans wire. too RIG ; he re , trr g - rbd
movement of Meade was too mitt and ton
skillful, to afford him the fitting (.1 purtu
oily for battle, and the one prsitrcal
suit obtained is tho , destruction c f the
railroad, and what that involves,
The Destruction of the Rallro d.
This work has been very thoroughly
done, Lee's whole army having be , .l.
gaged on it for two days. From firiQtoe
to the Rappahannock, the destruction
complete--bridges burnt, culverts blown
up, ties taken up and burnt, rails twisted
and rendered useless, cuts filled up, ett
etc. The engineers say that it will be at
least a month before it can be again put
in running order. It is with no small
mortification, therefore, that we have to
confess the rebels have achieved an end
fully commensurate with the labor and risk
of the campaign. The rebel theory, so far
as it consigns the army of the Potomac to
a role of inactivity in Virginia is accepted
by our own Generals. and it will depend
GO the conduct of those who direct mil,
tary operations over the whole theatre Cl)
war how far the pass to which the rPhel=
have brought affairs in Virginia will effect
the fortnuea of the war on other fields.
A Retrospective 61a•tee.
. .
In order to he able to draw an; last de.
ductions from the eveui 3 of the past fort
night, it will be well to talcs a glance at
the salient features of the campaign as E.
whole. It is, perhaps, due to state that
my personal experience is confined to
what happened on the return tide of the
army, not having been with it on its retro
grade movement, but having joined it a ,
Bull Run on Monday of this week. On
the march. however, and sitting around
the bivouac fires with the leading Gen.lr
ala in the army, daring the past three days,
I have heard so much about it that I can
give the dates and marches with more
curacy than has hitherto been done.
First Dluelomure of Rebel Intentional
_ _
•
On Friday and Saturday, the 9th and
loth of the current month, the designs of
Lee to execute a turning movement on
the right flank of the position along the
Rapidian began to be suspected. l'he
geographical configuration of the region
of the Rapidian peculiarly favors a secret
manoeuvre of this kind on the part of the
rebels, for while on the north side of the
Rapidian, occupied by us, the face of the
country falls down to a wide extended
plain, on which every movement on our
part could be seen with the greatest ease
—the south Bide, occupied by the rebels,
presents a series of high ridges, which
completely mask their movements Gen.
Meade, in order to learn the design of the
enemy, sent out cavalry recpnuoies oices,
the details of whose operations ye.: have
already published, and having satisfied
himself that Lee was actuqily mhium i‘
movement nortnward from Maci:.i,m Court
house, the army was en Smi.l,iy drawn,
back from the Rapidan to the Rrir
nook, passing the latter river at Kelly's
and the upper fords.
A Forward Movement to Feet the
Enemy,
Gen. Meade was still, however, in great
doubt as to the real proportion of the
rebel demonstration ;so on the fo!lowing
morning, Monday, the 12th, at 11 A. M .
the Second, Third and Sixth corps wore
sent back across the Rappahannoc k, and
pushed forward to the vicinity of Brandy
Station. Having become satisfied of the
reality of the rebel movement an our
right, these corps at midnight on Monday
retraced their
steps across the Rai pahan
nook.

In the meantime where were the rebels ?
From Madison Court House Lee had
pushed directly North to Sperryville, and
on Monday night, while we were at the
position just indicated, the rebels were
advancing across the fords of the Hedge
man river.
Thus far the rebels had clearly the ad—
vantage of us, We had lost a day by the
counter movement. This was clear gain
to them. They had the shortest line,
whether to Washington or any point be
!wean them and Washington. Accord.
ingly, for the next two days—Tuesday and
Wednesday—it became a regular race be
tween the two armies which should first
reach the heights of Centreville.
The Secouct corps marched all Monday
night up to Fayetteville to guard the road,
and stayed there till the whole army pass.

A Race Betwe n the two Arm
On Tuesday both armies were pushing
forward as fast as they could, parallel to
each other and separated by but half a
dczen miles or les,.
The rebels pti..ed through Warrenton,
ant: citizens here tell me he occupie ! the
whole of Tuesday in doing this, their
trains being extremely long.
We passed some miles to the right,
crossing Cedar hue at a place named Au
burn, five miles due east of Warrenton.
Gen. Lee Forma a Plan
•
At Warrenton, Gen. Ltae formed the
bold deign of sending one of his corps
(,Hill's) by a rapid detour to seize the
heights of Centreville, while his other
tEwell'e) should tall upon our flank and
rear.
It was on Wednesely morning, when
our who e army passed Cedar Run at Au
burn, Gen. Warren's corps (Sr-mud)
bring up the rear. To thin commander
was assigned the duty ct covering, the
trains ;f the army, which were much de
ayvd in the crossing by the p,-.001.r.
.1 Critical Moment
The occasion was now an extremely
critical t ne. Ewell had b"gun pressing
severely ou our rear, and already on Wed
risday morning, at Auburn the rear guard
became engaged with a Fortion of hi 3
force. A douhle necessity was upon lien

property qualification in real estate. It
might reasonably haves- been supposed that
a total repeal of this discrimination against
foreigners would have been insisted upon.
But the Democrats, fearing that if they
asked so much justice would not get any,
urged the adoption of a provision that
would allow our adopted citizens. who
had served in the army, the same privilege
of voting at elections with those native
citizens who had not gone into the army !
Vhat was the response of the Republican
party to this proposition ? What was the
response of those who prate of their love

shall vote at our State elections while
away from home, and under military rule?
How did they receive it? They rallied

It was not supposed that there would

The Desolations of War.
We quoted some days ago the brief ac•
count given by the Richmond Enquirer
of the cavalry action which took place at
Morton's Ford, on the Rapid-Ann, be
tween the forces of Gen. Fitz Lee and
Gen. Buford, in which the latter was re
pulsed and compelled to fall back to
Brandy Station. After this short recital
the Enquirer added: "In this fight Capt.
Wm. B. Newton was killed."
Such is the curt record bestowed on an
announcement which the writer must have
known was destined to carry sorrow to a
wide circle of friends in the State of Vir•
ginia. In the overwhelming public ca
lamities that have befallen the Southern
Section of our country because of the
disastrous war, provoked by armed sedi•
tion, there would seem to have grown up
an insensibility, on the part of some of
the disunion journals, to the private sor
rows which tney are called to record as
the terrible result of the issue prepared
in groat degree by their teachings, and
precipitated by the infatuation and violence
of South Carolina. And yet we have the
evidence that the domestic woes, every
where visible and confessed at the South,
are not without their effect in quickening
the invocations of many for the advent of
that peace which, in an evil hour for the
South and for the whole land, was broken
by cilit strife, culminating in civil war.
When we reflect, how many homes in the
North have beau darkened by the death
of those who have fallen in defence of
the Government it is easy to calculate how
much more universnl, among the sparser
population of the South, must be the
sense of private calamity resulting from
the carnage and waste of a war waged on
Southern soil.
Ile feeling that the war is as hopeless
:Is it is disastrous--fl feeling especially in
spired by the sights and sounds of woe
which meet the eye and ear on every hand
at the South, has elicited, wa observe, the
following expression from a member of
the Confederate Senate, Mr. ElEns.ns:nt.
V. Jeinr.soN, who now represents the State
of Georgia in that body, and who, it will
be remembered, was the candidate fur the
Vice Presidency of the United States on
the same ticket with Mr. Douglas sr the
last election for President of the United
States. Mr. Johnson shid
"When is this struggle to end ? Shall we
cinquer the North ? No,,we have no de
sire to do this. Shall the North conquer
us Forbid Heaven ! But I tell you
that this war will never be ended till we
are ail conq lere4 by the chastising hand
Providence, and we are brought back
to the virtues of our forefathers. Though
our armies have been victorious in nearly
every battle, yet almost every man ar.d
