LEER
We are notnow surprised at the anxiety
of the Administra tiou, to keep Gen. hic•
CLmr..xsoa report of the Peninsula wile
Paige from the public gaze. As soon as
it was ascertained that he was not
Willing to convert a war for the restora
tion of the Union, into one for negro
emancipation, the Radicals determined
upon his removal from his command of
the army. His letters to the Adminis•
tration, exposing their blunders, were
sunk, either in the President's private bu
reau, or in the tomb of the war department,
while, at,the same time, congressional
committees, and Abolition conspirators
were engaged in loading him with slander.
Seventeen months ago McCLELLeres fate
was determined on; and from that mo
ment, until the present he has been a
constant mark for Abolition detraction.
The following letter from Gen. Mc-
Cura.tas after the battle of Gaines' Hill,
will give the reader an idea of the crimi
nal neglect of the Administration, in
failing to adopt his timely suggestions.
Had he, instead of measuring the forces
of the enemy, and making timely awes
tions to the A dministration,_detincostra
ting how to successfully confront them'
conftned-hireself to issuing emancipation
proclamations, he would now be high in
the councils of his most malignant tradu
cers. Bat he appears to have contem
plated the man at the head of the War
Department, and wrote to him accord
ingly; this letter of the General was per
mitted to pass• without reply from Mr.
STLY;TON, he of coarse being unable to
answer its reasoning or allay the indigna
tion of its perplexed and and afflicted
author:
On the night of the 28th I sent the
following to the Secretary of War:
HEA.D'QRS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, I
SAVAGE'S STATION, I . I
June 28, 1862-12: 20 A. it. )
I nowknowthe full history of the day. Oo
this side of the river—the right bank—we
repulsed several strong attacks. On the
left bank our men did all that men could
do, all that soldiers could accomplish;
but they were overwhelmed by vastly
superior numbers, even after I brought
my last reserves into action. The loss on
both sides is terrible. I believe it will prove
to be the most terrible battle of the
war. The sad remnants of my men be
have as men, those battalions who fought
most bravely, and suffered most, are still
in the best order. The regulars were so
perb, and I count upon what are left to
turn another battle in company with their
gallant comrades of the volunteers. Had
'I (20,000) twenty thousand or even (10,-
000) ten thonsaed fresh troops to use to
morrow, I could take Richmond; but I
have not a man in reserve, and shall be
glad to cover my retreat and save the ma
tonal and personnel of the army. If we
havalcst the day, we have yet preserved
our honor, and no one need blush for the
Army of the Potomac. I have lost this
battle because my force was too small. I
again repeat that I am not responsible
for this, and I say it with the earnestness
of a general who feels in his heart the
loss of every brave man who has been
needlessly sacrificed to-day. I still hops
to retrieve our fortunes; but to do this
the Government must view the matter in
the 131111L3 earnest light that 1 do. You
mast send me very large reinforcements,
and send them at once. I shalt draw back
to this side of the Chickahominy, and I
think I can withdraw all our material.
Please understand that in this battle we
have lost nothing but men, and those the
lest we have. In addition to what I have
already said 1 only wish to say to the
President that I think he is wrong in re
garding me as ungenerous when I said that
my force was too weak— I merely intimat
ed a truth which to day has been too plain•
ly proven. If, at this instant, I could
dispose of (10,000) ten thonsand fresh
men I could gain the victory to-morrow.
I know that a few thousand more men
would have changed the battle from a
defeat to a victory. As it is, the Govern•
ment must not, and can not, hold me re
sponsible for the result. I feel too ear
neatly to night—l have seen too many
dead and wounded comrades to feel other
wise, than that the Government has not sus
tained the army. If you do not do so now,
the game is lost. If I save this army now,
I tell you plainly that I owe no thanks to
you, or to any other person in Washing
ton. You have done your best to sacrifice
this army.

OPPOSITION TO LINCOLN
The efforts of the peculiar, inside circle
of Abolitionists, who are endeavoring to
make their party believe that the country
demands the reelection of President LIN
COLN, do not appear to prosper, even with
his own practical persuasion. The Albany
correspondent of the Herald says that
"leading State officers there are under
stood to be opposed to the nomination of
Mr. LINCOLN or any of his Cabinet. Gen
Fairmorrr, it is said, will shortly come out
with a pronnnciamento to this effect.
General WAoswowra will take the same
ground."
Among the German Radicals, especially
those in the West, and more particularly
those in Missouri are particularly hostile
to Mr• Lrwcoaa's nomination. The St.
Louis ..Neue Zeit, a German paper of in
fluence says : "Are the Democrats then
perhaps right when they assert that the
1-:opublic and the self-government of the
people are corning to an end, and that
endeavors are being made to enter into
the footsteps of Lours NAPOLEON? In
that , case it would certainly be time to
mat loose openly and decisively from the
Republican party and its idol."
The Davenport (Towel Democrat,
another German paper, says on the same
subject:
"Now who will be our nest President,
Fantorr or LINCOLN? We fear LINCOLN.
Bat, if so, then the people have the
clearest proof that the office hunters and
politicians iule the country, and that
they are used as voting cattle instead of
being } he sovereigns . When will the
People nally take their own matters into
their own hands ? When will they awake
to freedom and independence, and turn
away from those who Seek to swindle
tl m on various pretexts, or because they
are atusda and servile by nature 7"
THE PITTSBURGH POST: TUESDAY MORNING, JA N 7 ARY 19, 1864,
THE POPE AND JEFF. DAVIS
Jeff, to the Pope,
According to the Paris journal, La
France, the following carious cortespon•
deuce has taken place between President
Davie and the Pope :
RICHMOND, Sept- 28, 1863.
VERY VENERABLE BOYERZIGN PONTIFF
Th 3 letters which you have written to
the clergy of New Orleans and New York
have been communicated to me, and I
have read with emotiou the deep grief
therein expressed for the ruin and devas•
tation caused by the war which is now
being waged by the United States against
the States and people who have selected
me for their President, and your orders to
your clergy to exhort the people to peace
and charity, lam deeply sensible of the
Christian charity which has impelled you
to this reiterated appeal to the clergy. It
is for this reason that I feel it my duty
to express personally, and in the name
of the Confederate States, oar gratitude
for such sentiments of Christian good
feeling and love, and to assure your Holi
ness that the people, threatened even on
their own hearths with the most cruel op
pression and terrible carnage, is desirous
now, as it has always been, to seethe end
of this impious war ; that we have ever
I addressed prayers to Heaven for that is-
sae which your Holiness now desires ;
that we desire none of the enemy's posses•
sions, but that we fight merely to resist
the devastation of our country and the
and the shedding of our best blood, and
to force them to let us live in peace under
the protection of our own institutions,
and under our laws, which not only insure
to every one the full enjoyment of
his temporal rights, but also the free
exercise of his religion. I pray your
Holiness to accept, on the part of myself
and the people of the Confederate States,
our sincere thanks for your efforts in
favor of peace. Mav the Lord press ve
the days of your Holiness, and keep you
under his protection.
-- IEPTIRSON DAVIS.
The Pope to Jeff itavts.
ILLUSTRIOUS AND HONORABLE PRESIDENT
—Salutations. We have just received,
with all suitable welcome, the persons
sent by you to place in our hands your
letter, dated 23d of September last. Not
slight was the pleasure we experienced
when we learned, from these persons and
the letter, with what feelings of joy, and
gratitude you were animated, illustrious
and honorable President, as soon as you
were informed of our letters to our vener
able brothers, John, Archbishop of New
York, and John, Archbishop of New Or
leans, dated the 18th of October of last
year, and in which we have, with all our
strength, excited and exhorted these ven
erable blithers that in their episcopal piety
and solicitude they should endeavor, with
the most ardent zeal, and in our name to
bring about the end of the fatal civil war
which has broken out in those countries,
in order that the American people may ob
fain peace and concord, and dwell chari•
tably together. It is particularly agreea
ble to us to see that you, illustrious, and
honorable President and your people, are
animated with the same desires of peace
and tranquility which we have in our lit.
tars inculcated upon our venerable broth
ers. May it please God at the same time
to make the other peoples of America and
their rulers, reflecting seriously how terri
ble is civil war, and what calamities it en
genders, listen to the inspiration of a
calmer spirit, and adopt resolutely the part
of peace. As for us, we shall not cease
to offer tip the most fervent prayers to
God Almighty that he may pour out upon
all the peoples of America the spirit of
peace and charity, and that he will stop
the great evils which afflicts them. We,
at the same time, beseech the God of
mercy and pity to shed abroad upon you
the light of His grace, and attach you to
us by a perfect friendship. Given at
Rome, at St. Peter's, theBd of December,
1862, of our Pontificate 18.
Terrible Plunge of a Railway
Train in lowa
The long bridge about two miles east of
Batavia, on the Burlington and Musca
tine railroad, was set fire to on Tuesday
last, and was burning as the evening train
came along. There is a sharp bend just
beyond the bridge, and the engineer,
Mark &easier, had no notice of the dan
ger until he turned the curve close to the
bridge.
The brakes were promptly whistled
down, but too late. The train, consisting
of engine, tender, thirteen cattle cars,
mail and passenger ear, rushed into the
burning structure. Feeling the engine
sinking. Mark reversed it and then
suddenly pat on a full head of steam,
under the Effac t of which the engine
bounded forward so suddenly as to
break the connection with the tender. It
then bounded off the track, ran some dis
tance along the side of it, and then back
on the track again, and finally reached
the bank in safety. The bridge went
down, and the cattle cars, thirteen of
them, were piled up in a perfect heap of
matter in the chasm. The passenger car,
In which were five passengers and several
brakemen, alone remained in security
on the east bank—a most miraculous es
cape, no one being injured. One horse,
a passenger in one of the stock cars, was
killed.
The burning was undoubtedly the work
of an incendiary, as the bridge was cov
ered wits show and the weather was
damp, raining, in fact It is hardly sup
posable that fire could have been corn•
municated from a passing train. Still we
understand the company has knowledge
of any one who could have any motive to
commit so fiendish a deed.
The bridge is now rebuilt and trains are
again crossing as usual. This kind of acci
dent will be guarded against in future.—
Ottawa (Iowa) Courier.
Crime in Washington
The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Inquirer, says the arrest of
Dr. Gwinn will probably lead to "import.
ant developments in the printing bureau
of the treasury department. Gwinn is
the inventor of the paper upon which the
small currency is printed, and which
splits so easily. It was patented by him,
and he was to recieve a large amount for
its use. He was the confidential friend of
Clark, the chief of•the printing depart
ment. Further developments of whole.
sale crime are anticipated."
There is in these statements a very sug-
gestive thought as to the manner in which
the latest stealing that has been detected
was perpetrated. There appears to be
stealing in every thing at Washington—
fraud and peculation in every transaction
—and the thieves have their agents in all
the official places.
Within Charleston.
Late Charleston papers give ns an in
side view of matters in that city. Affairs
present by no means the cheerful aspect
some would have ns believe. The
Charleston Etotel is already closed, and
notice is given that the Mills House will
shortly follow the example. The reason
assigned for thus closing two of the most
fashionable hotels in the South, is the
great destitution of provision s of all kinds
necessary to conduct the establisments in
a manner agreeable even to the unfasti
dions trite of the guests. The congre o .
den of two churches publicly invite the
congregation: of a third to join them in
religuns worship, for the reason that the
edifices of the former are subject to (Lan.
ger from our shells. Nearly all the ware
houses situated in the vicinity of the. piers
are emptied' or abandoned.
What have We Gained in the Last
Correspondenoe of the New York Express.
New ORLEANS, January 3
The new year changas very little our
situation here from what it was a year
ago, esc , pt that l'ort Hudson and Vicks
burg having fallen, we can derive supplies
and men when raised from the West as
easily as from the East by the sea. In
Louisiana we possess no more territory
than we did on the Ist of January, 1888,
and whether what we have gained in Texas
shall net a gain depends upon those who
keep the secrets. I am inclined myself
to believe that soldiers are poor book
keepers, and that losses are somehow al
ways underrated on both sides. If a dis
interested census could be taken of our
army, I fear that it would approximate
the state of things confessed to exist
among the rebels—that the rolls repre•
sent a good many more men than are on
duty. From General down to Captain no
commander is willing to admit a loss, and
so every artifice is need to cover up any
which may have occurred.
The Residence of James Gordan
Bennett.
The editor of the Dubuque (Iowa) Her
ald lately visited Mr. James Gordon Ben•
nett, of the New York Herald, at his
residence on the Hudson River. He thus
speaks of it:
"Mr. Bennett's success as a newspaper
publisher will be understood from the
value of the estate at For. Washington
on which he resides. This consists of
forty acres of ground estimated to be
worth five thousand dollars an acre, with
out the improvements of buildings, green-
houses, These are worth not less than
a hundred and fifty thousand dollars. It
is probably worth a great deal more than
this, but even at these figures i; is
enough to show that he who can afford to
enjoy life in the style of comfort and
magnificence in which Mr. Bennett indul
ges at Fort Washington must have bean
crowned with a large wreath of business
success,"
