On the contrary, many gentlemen, of good information, asserted that there was no reason to suppose that the General would come to the city at present; at least, not until he had formally accepted the Chicago nomination by letter. Come when he may, however, he may be sure of a cordial reception. For the present, he is staying quietly with his family at Orange, New Jersey. The Democratic National Committee.

Let the adherents of General McClellan, therefore, not crow too loudly until after the results of the Vermont and Maine elections shall have been made known. The friends of "Little Mac" should be at work there, and not blowing their horns over a victory which yet remains to be won. How M'Clellan's nomination was received. The following dispatches show the spirit of rejoicing through the North over McClellan's nomination: Kingston, N. Y., September 1.--The Democrats of Kingston are having a large meeting here tonight. Addresses have been made by Hon. D. M. Dewett and others. One hundred guns were fired in honor of the nomination, and buildings illuminated. Harrisburg, Pa., September 1. --National salutes were fired by the Democrats near Fort Washington last evening, and on Capitol Hill this morning, in honor of the nomination of McClellan and Pendleton.

The fight at Reams's station. A correspondent of the Washington Chronicle writes a curious letter in explanation of Hancock's defeat on the Weldon railroad. If the views of this writer may be accepted as correct, it requires but three years to annihilate an army corps, for we are told that the Second corps was composed of entirely new men, and hence the disaster. Dating before Petersburg, August 27th, the correspondent writes: "Every man undergoes an organic change once in seven years. So we are informed by physiologists. The disintegration of human particles must be very gradual and imperceptible, for, after the lapse of time specified, when it is presumed the last atom of the 'old man' has departed, the individual retains his identity, his friends appear the same, his name remains unchanged.

Thrice the rebels charged, each time with augmented numbers and increased fury. When our soldiers saw their backs for the third time, contempt for their foes was only equalled by the confidence they felt in themselves. Many of the regiments in Miles's division were composed of new men — substitutes; aliens, and drafted men. The Seventh New York had just received three hundred such. Most of them were ignorant of company drill, and knew so little of the manual of arms they could scarcely load and fire.

New York had just received three hundred such. Most of them were ignorant of company drill, and knew so little of the manual of arms they could scarcely load and fire. The enthusiasm of these men was unbounded when the rebels were repulsed in their first charge. When the enemy appeared before their works, and assaulted them the second time, they seemed the most fearless soldiers in the line. Every man, in his eagerness to get a good chance to shoot, forgot he was not as invulnerable as Achilles, and needlessly exposed himself. This regiment and the Sixty-first New York, also refilled with new recruits, poured a perfect tempest of "buck and ball" into the line of rebels as they surged, a human wave, against the works. "Then came the order for counter-charge. The line of rebels had grown uneven; it swayed to and fro as in a drunken fit. Finally it broke and scattered. These men, before so full of enthusiasm, now became wild and unmanageable. They clambered over the parapet,
