rout at Leesburg. It is also more truthful than his report of the killed and wounded at Rich Mountain. 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.

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.
