Tae rep -rl conclu le with the following eluqu-nt tribute the to brafery, gaU lantry and arduu eernce of the Army of 'he P iteejMfi "I nal' not, nor can I living, fogrt that whi n I waa ordered to the r mm.nd of the I : I .1 ..!.. m . wiir, iiu not i(ii ineir connleiice in ine ae ineir commander. They praug to my call with all their ancient vigor, discipline and courage. I led them into Maryland fifteen days sfter ihey had 'alleii bark detested before Washing' on. Tney vanqmehed the enemy on the rugged high's of 8 u'h M uu tain, pureued him o the hard fought field of Amietam, a d drove him, broken and iia poiutt d, across the Potnmac into Virginia. The army bad need of rest after the . xperiences of battles and marchea wiih scarcely an interval of repose, which they had gone through from the lime of leaving the penin sula, the return to Washington, the defeat In Virginia, the victory at S uth Mountain. aad again at Antietam. It waa Dot aurpriaing that they were in a Urge degree desli lute of th- sbsolute neceaaities to effective duty. Their shoee ware warn ot,ard blanketa were lost, their clothing wa in rags, in short, the srmy ss unfit lor active ser vice, and an interval for rest and equipment wasnecesasrv. When the slowly f.irwsrded auppliee came to us, I led the army across Ihe river, renovated, refreshed, and ia good order and discipline, followed the retreating foe to a position where I wss confident of a decisive victory , when, ia the midst of the movement snd while my advance guard was actually in contact with the eoeI was removed from command. I aaa ita tma brave army was en with a victory which stives' the nation from ths greatest peril it had then undergone. I have not accomplished my purpose it by this report ths Army ol ths Potomac ia not placed high on the roll of the hiatoric armies of the wurld. Its deeds euoble Ihe notion lo which it belongs. Always ready for battle, always firm, stesdfast and trustworthy, I never celled on it in vain, nor will the natiuu have cauae to attribute its want uf success under myself or under other cummaadsrs to sny fsilure of pa'rtotim or brsv ery in tint noble body ol American soldiers. No man can justly charge upon any portion of that army, Irom tha commanding general to Ihe private, any lark uf devotion '.o Iba service of the United 8tates Government, md to tbe c ue of the Constitution and tha Union They have proved their lealtv in much Sorrow, suffering, danger, and through the very ahadow of death. Their comrades, dead on all the fi-ld where we (ought, have careely more claim lo tbe honor ot the nation, reverence than the survivors to Iba justice of a nation's gratitude." The report covers the period from tha 16th of July, 1861, to November 7th, 1864. CO" The New Albany Lsdger. says that, aince th endureenien of A. Lmcoin, Esq , Sbakspeare haa become very popular. It is read in many of tbe Abolition frmiliea now Inatead of the Lord's prayer.
