MCLELLAN AND HIS DEFA MERS

GeD. Lew. Wallace is a repub* lican aspirant for the position so ably filled by Senator Turpie, At a Lincoln birthday reoeotion he told a story to the < tfeot that Mr. Lincoln went to Harrison’s Laud* inp in July. 1862, to prevent Me* G lellan from sni rendering the army of thegPotomac. Had the would*be senatoi farnilia.ized himself with the dispatch* es which every day during that period passed back and forth be* tween McClellan, the President, Haileck and Stunton, h would have discovered nothing oo the part of McClellan hat would have ev,-n suggested such a thought, and possibly the false and cruel story woull not have been given emulation at this day. Wallace hag made a grievous mistake. McClellan did not have he numbt r of men he asked for tand was promised when ordered to advance. And when every division of his army was assigned its duty, and engaged with the enemy, McDowell with 40,000 meu, Wool with 10,000 and Blenker with 10,000— 60,000 men in all—were withdrawn by Stanton aud Haileck and sent off on a wild poose chase, thus making retreat neoassary. The folio vingditpatch from McClellan to Stanton speaks for it* self;

Headquarters, Army of the Po. tomac, Savage’s Station. June 28, 1862,12:20 am. Hon. E. M. Stanton, j Secretary of War: I now know the full history of the day. On this side of the river (the right bank) we repulsed sev c eral strong attacks. On the left bank our men did all th t men co'd do, nil that soldiers could accomplish, but they were overwhelmed by vastly superior numbers, even after I brought my last into action. The loss on both sides is tsrrible. 1 believe it will prove to be the most desperate battle of the war The sad i emnants ol my meu be' ave as men Those battal ious who fought most bravely and suffered most are still in the test order. My regulars were superb, j and L count upo what are 1 :{ to turn another i attle in company with their gallant comrades of the volunteers, Had 1 twenty tnous a d (2(1,000), or even ten thousand (10,000), fresh troops to use tamo, row, I canid take Richmond; but I have not a man in reserve, and shall he glad to cover mv retreat and save the material and personnel of the army. If we have lost tbe day we have y?t preserved our honor.and no one need blush for the Army of the Pot mac I have lost this battle because my force was too small. 1 aga n repeat that I am not rt-j sponsible for this, and } say it with the earnestness qf a general who f. els in his heart the loss of every

brave man who has been needlessly sacrificed to-day. 1 still hope to retrieve our fortunes; but to do this the government must view ti e matter in the 6ame earnest light t hat I do. Vou must seud me very hirge reinforcements, and send them at one-. I shall draw back to this si it °f the Ch eka! ominy, and thick 1 can withdraw all our material. Please understand that in his battle we have lost nothing bi.l men, and those the best ,ve h.w 9.

1 i addition to wlmt I have nln- said, 1 only wish tosay to the I j -udent that 1 th,uk h ij wrong in regarding me as ungenerous when I said that my foice was too weak. 1 merely intimated r truth whioh to*day has been too plainly proved. If, at this instant, I co’d dispose of ten thous nd (10,000) fresh men, 1 could gain the vieto* ry to-morrow. 1 know that a few thousand more' men would have changed this bin* tie fr jm a defeat to a victory. As it is, the government must not and cannot hold me responsible for tho result. 1 feel too earnestly to-night. 1 nave seen too many dead ad wounded comrades to feel other* wise than that the government has not sustained this urmy. If vou ( I° so now the game is lost. If 1 save this ormy now, 1 tell you plainly that 1 o« e no thanks to vou or to any ether persons in " ashingtou. You ha e done your b< st to sacrifice thts army.

Its symptoms are common to other diseases, vis., Severe Headache* Backache, Dizziness, Klccplessnsaa, Blurred Vision, Dyspepsia, etc. OnaS let it ret a firm hold on the system and it is difficult to dislodge.

HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a oottln or common glass "ith urine and let it, ocaud fwenty four hours; a sediment or settling indicates a diseased condition of /be kidneys. Whtn urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of ordei. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamu Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys. livtar, bladder and every part of the urinery passages. It corrects inability to hold urine andl scalding pain in passing it, or bad effect following use of liquor wine or beer, and overcomes that unplaasant necessity of being compel ed to get up many times during the mght to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the hignest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you ueed r medicine you should have the best.
