McClellan's right appeared to rest on Sharpsburg, and hisstroyed a bridge over this creek yesterday, but Gen. McClellan had it rebuilt during the night. The position occupied by General McClellan appears to be an advantageous one, his guns seeming to be stationed on a rangeorning and continued until late at night. General McClellan, at the close of the day, had driven them abou where least expected. It is evident that General McClellan was pressing Gen. Lee to the river in such a mails here, and the most enthusiastic admiration of McClellan and his army. We have undoubtedly won great aes.

A generation devoted to money getting can hardly possess many of the heroic virtues, and among a people where the heroic virtues do not exist, the material for forming Generals cannot be found. The military academy at West Point has furnished the South with a number of Generals, worthy to rank with those of any service in the world. The camp of Gen.

etween Middletown and Boonsboro, on the old National road, where it crosses the Blue Ridge mountains. Gen. Lee. in his march from Frederick to Hagerstown, left Gen. D. H. Hill and Gen. Studant at mountain passes to keep the advancing forces of McClellan, who were believed to be moving to the relief of the enemy at Harper's Ferry, in check, whilst the corps of Longstreet moved on in the direction of Hagerstown. Harper's Ferry having withstood the siege-longer than was anticipated Gen. Lee retude. Early on Monday morning Gen. Lee withdrew the corps of Longstreet and Hill from their position and retired to Sharpsburg, to await the arrival of our forces engaged in the reduction of Harper's Ferry. Early the same day, the forces of McClellan passed the mountain, and at two in the afternoon reached a position in front of our lines near Sharpsburg. Up to Tuesday night they had able no attack, and Gen. Lee also remained inactive waiting the function of Jackson's corps. The surre
