The review was az magnificent a spectacle as

| ciplincd men can be- made; the very ma'sing Of
such multitude being the granic't feature Of
the whole. As it was designed for a practical
experiment in the mobilization Of tho army,
every detail connected with movement was ~
carefully observed as though an advance had
been actually intended. Tho surgeons were

were confined to simple inspection Of the

This inspection over, the troops passed in review
before the commandcr-in-chiet, each regiment
returning to its quarters As soon as it had gone
by the General.
The movements OF the army showed how
thoroughly Gen. Mcclellan Ia, his men now in

WELD them when the proper moment comes.
When that is to he you know as well as |. or

circumstances beyond human control and it is
~ safe to say that Gen. Mcclellan will assume
the offensive tomorrow as next week. or the
fortnight after. lie is ready, and when there Is
an opening for the blow it will come. 1t is a
significant fact that no movement is vet observed
