ether he is so recognized or not; and McClellan, the only recognized, as in any event the only real Union candidate, will collect under his glorious banner not only the legions of patriots who meet in convention at Chicago, but the genuine patriots of the Republican party. For that matter, there are in the breasts of thousands and thousands of Republicans a smouldering admiration for McClellan, and a living faith in him that, no matter what may be the final combination of parties, will ere November burst forth in a blaze of devotion to the cause he represents. He will be, in the noblest sense of the expression, the people's candidate, as he is the country's hope. Under his bright standard will rally the pure lovers of the Union, while under the dark ensign of his adversary will gather Abolitionists, peace men, secessionists, and all the desperate odds and ends of a nation so long the spot of treason and of faction. Senator Henderson and his friends may call for a division on the qu

nd men, but one thousand are left to tell the fearful odds against which they contended. Two regiments of the division were consolidated, and had in all fourteen hundred men and seven officers, the highest in rank being a Captain. The 19th corps checked the rebels and held them for about twenty five minutes, when they were forced to retire, which they did slowly, and as night came on the bloody conflict ended. The next evening Gen. A. J. Smith came up with his command and relieved Gen. Franklin, and whipped the rebels badly. Twelve pieces of cannon were recaptured and eight hundred prisoners taken. A letter from another private in the same battery says: Our corps (the 13th) was all cut to pieces, and we fell back to this place, Grand Ecore, five or six miles from the battle field, to organize. We lost twenty four pieces of artillery, all that were in the fight. This letter also says that Gen. Smith captured two thousand prisoners and thirty-six guns in a figh

We predicted upwards of a year ago that the peace men and the Abolitionists would ultimately act ts likely very soon to be realized. In that event, Lincoln will be recognized as the disunion candidate, which he will be whether he is so recognized or not; and McClellan, the only recognized, as in any event the only real Union candidate, will collect under his glorious banner not only the legions of patriots who meet in conventit the genuine patriots of the Republican party.

stores on the outskirts of rebeldom sufficient to subsist their armies for three months. We are told by the reports of chief Engineers and Major Generals in command that forts have been levelled by our artillery, have become a mass of shapeless ruins and unavailable to defence. These forts, for six months thereafter, have held in security Confederate garrisons, and yet they frown defiance at our iron-clad navies. For three years the armies of the rebellion have defied our power. In April, 1861, the Executive and his advisers thought that 75,000 men could suppress the outbreak in three months. In July, 1861, the Congress thought that 500,000 men would soon complete the work. With an army of many hundreds of thousands now in the field, the same authorities regard it necessary to add 700,000 more to the present. Who is the man that thinks the rebellion is weaker to day than it once was, two or three years ago? It is easy to say we think it weaker. Indeed, it may be so stron
