Latest from the North. The Northern papers of the 4th are almost destitute of news. Lincoln, Secretary Chase, and McClellan visited the battle field of Sharpsburg on the 2d. The two former returned to Washington the next day. The dispatches represent the Confederates to be entrenched at Bunker Hill, Winchester, and Martinsburg, but the net results are below the anticipated average. If these are really anxious for another forward to Richmond, let them go to work and send to Gen. McClellan his gained reinforcements. Let such of as boast of then hundreds of thousands of dollars encourage enlistments by offering handsome bounties and those who h-President Lincoln, accompanied by Gen. McClelland and other distinguished personages, came here by special train and proceeded at once up the Potomac towards Gen. McClellan's headquarters. From certain indications it is presumed that he will visit all our prominent military positions and hospitals in this vicinity before his ret
McClellan's Plans. We do not coincide in the opinion of a contemporary that McClellan has given up his designs on Richmond. If he ever could succeed in deluding our Generals into such a notion, it would not be long before they would be undeceived in a disagreeable manner.

Our readers have been so long accustomed to McClellan's peculiar strain of mendacity, that tMcClellan's peculiar strain of mendacity, that they will not be surprised to hear that his last effort has surpassed all his former. He is indeed an improving man. Each sucmmense bodies of prisoners, and who has seen them besides McClellan? The Government has accurate lists of our killed, woloss was about 5,000. But suppose we had lost 30,000, as McClellan's lying reports indicate. Suppose, too, he lost no more (Gen. Lee, by-the-bye, paroled that number on the field.) McClellan says they lost 14,796 at South Mountain and Antietam. Laonfederate. A correspondent of the New York Tribune says McClellan lost 28,000 men there. This, we have no doubt, is within the mark, for McClellan has never yet acknowledged the half of his loss on a single occasion. His loss on the 14th all Confways followed. and they spoke in favor of his accuracy. McClellan is like a bad actor, who can copy the mannerism of an adm
