And if he has done nothing to merit a sword, pray, what has he accomplished, to be made Lieutenant-General? It could be said at least of old Scott that he had enjoyed a great reputation, but McClellan is absolutely an unknown man. Nothing but a small success, achieved by the aid of tremendous odds, over a few hundred Virginians, in Western Virginia, has given him that prestige with the infas friends, when it can make no further use of them, as it is to its enemies. When McClellan says he has done nothing yet to deserve a sword, he utters a truth, which is illustrated by Lewisville and Leesburg; when he intimates that he will hereafter, we must be prepared for doubting whether a man who, on his own showing, has never yet done anything worth special honor, can accomplish more than General Scott and the combined military talent of the United States Army have been able to achieve.

They lack arms and ammunition, but they do not lack the disposition to fight the enemies of Virginia, or to meet and drive back the minions of Lincoln. They may lack skill with artillery, but they are masters of the rifle, and know how to make that instrument speak a language before which the stoutest invader must recoil. No Government can afford to let such a population as this be overrun, or to lose a district from which so many of its best soldiers are su

To be kicked out of power, and taunted by his own friends as a miserable dotard. But yesterday, he was the "great Captain of the age; " "now, none so poor as do him reverence." A righteous retribution for the hoary traitor who sold himself to the enemies of his native land for the pay and emoluments of office.

Scott's Lament. Much has been spoken and written about Gen. Scott, once the pride of the proudest nation on earth, now the scorn and contempt of all honorable men, even those who reward the treachery detest the traitor.
