Gen. McCLELLAN.—Were net the subject a sore one, it would be amusing to observe how fara blind idolatry carries some
naturally well, disposed persons in defending
the military aetsof Gen. McClellan. It is
possible he may be the genius he has been
represented to be. It may be possible: that
the complimentary remarks we have made
about him in times agone, with the laudable
_ purpose of encouraging confidence in a man
who held the lives of more than a hundred
thousand brave men in his hands, have not
been-undeserved. We sincerely hope they
were not amiss. Yet we must confess that
every day’s experience does not increase
our confidence in the man, or give us 4 higher opinion Of his abilities to command. We
are prepared to believe that Geh. MeClellan
is a good engineer, and that he would answer
‘to ‘@oimmand a fortificatiou assailed, where
the strength of the walls would hold out till
he had time to think; after his plan of defense
should have failed by the management of the
evemy. McClellan is a slow, not to say
stupid, military man. In sappert of this asgertion we have the testimony of men who
know him and téie appearance of his physiog.
If.any other proof is desired we point to all
his actions since he. took command in front
of Washington. Hv waited three or four
mouths after his troops were in the highest
state of efficiency before he could be prevailed onto march. He allowed the enemy to
escape hiin at Manassasand Youktown. He
has been tuo elow in all his moveinents against
the rebels. Jackson has eluded bim and,
pushed into Maryland, and then eluded him
again in his attempt to cut off his retreat,—
He is always a few days too late. Jackson
can march twenty-five miles a day, but Mc
Clelldu cannot get his soldiers over more
than ten miles in pursuit.
The admirers, vr at least, the defenders,
of McClellan talk of falsehoods in Chandler's
speech. Chandler uses strong language, it
is true. But his language is not stronger
than the official documents he produces,
atrongly stated ag some of his prepositions
maybe. The falsehoods. if any there be in
the speech of the Seuator of Michigan, are
to be charged to other sources than to Mr.
Chandler, and if they are fulsehoods the commander of thearmy of the Potomac is the
* wietim of a combination of circumstances
that have rarely beon seen except in the pages of a high wrought novel.
The old excuse that McClellau’s plans were
interfered with.by the Secretary of War, is
still in vogue. Now, the President hus said
no blame can be attached to Secretary Stan{oi because when asked for reinforcements,
he had no-troops to send. Whose fault was
that? The papers,such as the New York
Herald, that wos secéssion in the start, and
which have made a god of McCle!lan, torget
that they have endeavored tu convey the impression that their man wrs consulted on all
occasions. by the Administration, and that be
said the army of the Potomac was large
enough to take Richmwoud, and advised thar
no more Volunteers be received into the sur=
vice. If such be the facts the fault of
having reinforcements to send MeCleltwn
not
when going to the swanyps below Riebmond,
is attributable in some measure, to that general himself, More than this, it has been reported, and not denied, that a letter from Me-~
Clellan ison fle in the War Department,
written in the swamps, in which he said be
had troops enough and would be in Riehmond
during the next week.
How all this may be, we do not pretend to
judge ; butlooking at the manand his past
actions and judging the whole by a standard
of suceess—-not omitting his Inte attempt te
cut off Stonewall Jackson in Maryland—and
we ninst confess his admirers

There wad « rumor in town, last evening,
that the rebels iad been whipped in Mary.
land. No particulars.
Tne Mountam Roure —We republish
an article in; to-day’s paper from the Sac,
Union on the route to the silver regions via
Grass Valley and Nevada. It is hardly necessary to reprint in the TRaNscripT what
appears in the Union, that paper having so
general a distribution in this couuty .and
wherever the TRANSCRIVT circulates. But
the remarks are so eminently just. that we
cannot forbear repeating them.
In this connection let us say that we understand the Cal. Stage Company has hauled
off one of the stages running between thia
. . place and Lincoln. The accommodations
given us by the Company now are only a gocart which connects with a coach running
from Lincoln to Marysville at Bear River.
The passengers from Nevada and Grass Val
ley are furnisbed with poor traveling accommodations to Bear River, and then, when
the Marysville stage happens to be full our
passengers, We suppose, take thelr chances
on the outside. Every attempt is made below to turn travel away from us. ind we
learn that men along the Henness Pasa road
beyond where the Truckee Turnpike intersects with it, havé made it a business to

advise tll teameters to avoid our read.
JACKSON’s Kaip —lt may be doubted
whether Stonewall Jackson wenton his late
raid to Maryland for any other other purpose than to pftocure supplies, and having ac:
complished the object of bis expedition he
could afford to retreat in haste. Virginia
bas not been a State productive ef food to
sustain a large army, and the troubles extend
ing through two years have not increased
The rebelarmy io Virginia had been cramped for
food during some months before the retreat
of McClellan from the Peaoinsula, and it is
more than probable that the daring eoterprizes of the rebels of late have been tor the
purpose of procuring supplies. A
amount of provisions is reported to have
been coliect-d by Jackson in Maryland, and
also by the guerrillas in Tennessee and Kentucky.

VoTeE OF THE COUNTY.—The Democrat,
of Tuesday foots up the vote of the county
at the last election at 4,872, for Superintendent of Public Instruction, which ia very
nearly the number of ballots cast. This vote
shows a falling off of 1,675 votes in the county since last year, and 2,450 votes since 1256.
ln six years the vote has therefore, decreaspartially real,and partially more apparent
than res}. A large pumber of voters have
gone to Nevada Territory, and the newly discovered placers north, but mere have staid
at hotne, and some have skulked with the be.
hef that draiting would be done trom the poll
list. The vote of the county in PSG0 tor Presdent was, 6.658, or only 644 Jess than at the
iPresideutial election preceding. During
these two Presidential elections the silver
tever had raged and done its worst.
We sreof the optmon judging from the
fuets and figures, that there are full six thousand voters in) the county at the present
time.
Gen. BANKS.—The Bulletin very justly
says ot this great man:
Few generals that the present war has developed have well inaintained through

Nia—Gen Wright has reeeived an order
trom Washington, directing him te have arrested any persons discouraging enlistments,
or indulging in any disloyal practice—by act,
speech, or writing—aguinet the U. S. Goyernment. We believe, and on very good

‘CULN.~—-The Nevada TRANSCRIPT cepsures
the merchants and business men of Nevada
for the lack of enterprise displayed in neglecting to establish a line of daily stages
from Lineoln ria Nevada .to Virginia City.
The TRANSCRIPT argues correctly that it
would essentinily benefit that city by the
. streain of travel if would turn through it.
‘Undoubtedly a“ good stage line from Lincoin
to Virginia, by way of Nevada, would be extensively patronized by the traveling public.
The route is very direct, the read good, and
the time would be as short as by any other
line, it not shorter, os claimed by the Franscrier. So far as distance is concerned. it
seems to us fully-as near from Lincoln te Virginia City as itis from Marysville. or perhaps
from Placerville. This fact would give to a
route thréugh Nevada a decided advantage
over that bv Marysville, as the stage from
Lincoln would be at Grass Valley at about
the same time the Lincoln stage arrived in
Marysville. Of course this would give the
coach by Grass Valley and Nevada the advantage of being twenty odd miles ahead of the
one which leaves Marysville for the Territe
ry of Nevada after the Lincoln coach reaches that city, In view of these facta, it is a
matter of wonder tbat the line was not started some time ago. It was earnestly, as we
The peopje of Nevada have bees sleeping in
plain view of what might have been made an
important means of prosper'ty.
The interesta of the people of Lincoln are
also involved. and so are those of the’ proprietora of the nurthernCentral Railroad, which
now terminates at Lineeln. The railroad
accommodations en the road are ample for
all the passengers who may choose to use it.
The loconmtives and ears are new, and the
track is in good condition. In une hour after leaving Folsom passengers can be in Lincolo, and in fifteen minutes thereafter they
could bé in couches, on their way over the
mountains. In an enterprise of thls character the citizens of Linceln are deeply concerned; and although the town 18 new, something might be done towardetaiding in establishing the line. Last January there was
scarcely a houes in the place; now there 1s .
something like a hundred. In fact the building.tas pretty much all been since the first
of May, as up to that-time the roads were ao
lumber from the mills. -One ot the merchants, in the town is building a substantial .
brick store with brick burned near the town,
The residents uf Lincoln live in hopes of being able to have the county of Placer divided
so as to make an agricultural and a mining
county. Should they succeed iti this, Lincoln will become the county seat of the one
formed of the of the agriculturbl portion of
the present county.—Sac. Union.

Tue Way Jim Lane Does.—The way of
the Secessionist in Kansas, like the way of .
the transgressor everywhere, is hard, and
very juconvenient. Some daya ago, an order was issued by the military authorities
Leavenworth, calling upon all able’ bodied’ men of the place te organize and drill
for service. It seema that some of the

RecepTion or Gex. Corcorayx.—The
following is from New York, August 22d:
The reception of Gen. Corcoran this afternoon was the most magnificent ovation ever
accorded here. The formal reception by the
city authorities took place in Castle Garden,
Mayor Opdyke making the speech of -welcome, to which General Corcoran replied in
fitting terms. The popular greeting was
marked with enthusisem seldoin jwitnegsed
anywhere. The crowd around Gen. Cofvos
ran’s carriage was such that it was with difficulty dragged up Broadway Along the
entire route of the procession the jam was
immense.
A
The-militia display was fine, considering
the greater part is at the seat of war.
The charitable societies turned cut in
large. numbers, and the firemen looked maznificent—sumbering perimps five “thousand
men,
As the precession passed the New Eengland Rooms, a sslute was fired from a 4pounder on the reof. The ovation continued
until the procession reiched the General’s
quarters atthe St. Nicholas, and the scene
to-mght will be a fitting sequel te the stirrring events of the day. Gen. Coreoran may
weil be proud of bis re-advent into his adupte
ed city.

Cavalry, and just graduated trom the fillby
