How Foreigners view mcclellan.

The Montreal Herald, a paper that is now con
Quoted with more ability than most Canadian jour
nails, has the following notice of General McClel-
Ian. in an article on the "War in the United
States :"
General Mcclellan is understood not to be very
communicative, and he may see III recent events
grounds for believing that whatever comparative
Improvement has been effected in his army, the
absolute standard of efficiency is not high enough
to warrant any hazardous enterprise. The repe-
tition once more Of the often repeated blunder OF
one corps of Federalists firing upon another.
shows a nervousness and precipitation which can
not be reassuring TO a commander, whose rep9ta-
ton depends not upon the skillfulness of his own
dispositions, but upon the steadiness with which
they aae carried out.
The wanton and barbarous destruction of prop
erty by the Federalists upon occupying again the
positions vacated by the Coniederates does not
convey any high idea of their present discipline.
Mcclellan, therefore. may hesitate still, for in
deed the cause for which he fights can not afford
any more disasters. Strong as the North is in
comparison with the South, in most of the ele-
ments of warlike power. the war has been for her
arms almost a uniform succession of disgraces
Ii is a hard task of Mcclellan to restore the
prestige which has been lost, and in order to do
this he must not strike until he feels secure that
he can do so effectually.
In the meantime he has been fortifying Wash
ington in a manner which we understand is much
approved by British officers of large experience,
who have seen it, and has thus not only protected
the capital, but formed a rallying point in case
of another disaster. OF course there is nothing
more easy than for domestic or foreign critics to
show that any commander is an ass up to the
time when he shall have proved himself a warike
genius. Wellington, himself, hardly maintained
his position against the wiseacres at home. while
he was creating the lines of Torres Vedras.
1t will not be till after he shall have made his
stroke that the world will he able to Judge of the
stuff of which Mcclellan is made, for at present
he has never been matched against any enemy
whose defeat could be regarded as a great triumph.
1t is so far in his favor, however. that impartial
and competent judges. both French and English
speak in high terms of what he has done since
he took command.

sunlight.

The Government seems now 70 he in a condi-
ton 10 send a large body OF troops into the West
Sixty thousand men are 20 be dispatched trOm
the East, half into Kentucky and the residue into
Missouri. These with the army, seventy thous-
and strong, now under the command OF Fremont,
will be amply sufficient for the western campaign.
IL i intended to divide this force into three ar
mics. one Tor Missouri. which no doubt will be
placed under Illinois own General, Hunter; one
in Kentucky, under Major General Sherman;
and the other to operate upon the Mississippi in
connection with the naval fiotilla under Major
General Wool.
These dispositions cannot be made too soon.
and have undoubtedly only been DELAYED because
Of the necessity of protecting the capital. the
loss of which would be decisive OF the war.
Many people in the West, in their Impotence,
have not given this consideration sufficient
weight. Washington taken by the rebels Is the
establishment Of the Southern ConIederacy. We
cannot, therefore, doubt that the first duty of the
Administration and the people was TO protect the
seat of the national Government at all hazards
The prospects of a vigorous prosecution Of the
war are now so bright as TO encourage every
patriotic heart. The President Is true to the
Constitution. The people, except the abolition
faction. know no party in the war. McClellan's
army is advancing slowly and surely to engage
and defeat the forces of General Johnston
Enormous naval expeditions are fitting out on the
coast. The credit of the Government IS good,
and 10 difficulty is experienced either at home or
abroad in obtaining money. And lastly, the
changes in the Department of the West-es
pecialIy in appointing such men as Wool, Sher-
man and Hunter, all fighting Generals, to the
command-at length realize the grand scheme OF
hostiIities which literally surrounds the rehols
with a fire, and places the superior wealth and
numbers of tie North in the best attitude for
offensive operations. All these are signs of GER
tain promise, and prove that the resolution OF
the nation that the Union must be preserved will
be blessed with glorious success.
We are now in the second era of the war.
The first was characterized by bragging, grum-
bling, defeat. We really forgot that the South
had six or seven months the start of us in prepar-
atoms. But We have learned a great deal. We
are more in earnest. because more practical. We
have ceased 70 call each other secessionists.
For once the great body of the nation forget
that they are partisan, and only remember that
they must be patriots. This is the great bow of
promise in the national heaven. History will re-
cord. TO the latest century, that all of this gen

to rally around their country Times.
Indiana State sentinel. (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1861-1865, 1861-10-30

General Edward ID. Baker, who was killed on
Monday at the head of his brigade in the charge
upon the enemy near Leesburg, was a native Of
the State OF Illinois, and a great personal friend
of President Lincoln, who, in the behalf of Mr..
Baker, resisted the attack upon him by the Cali
fornia delegation shortly after the Inauguration.
General Baker was a Representative in Congress
from Illinois during the years 1916 and lS47, and
was subsequently Senator for the new State Of
Oregon. General Bakers military career shows
that this is not his first campaign, for we find
that in July, 1876. he was Colonel of the 4th
regiment of twelve months Illinois volunteers in
the Mexican war, and commanded the brigade of
General Shields after his fall. He was well dis
tinguished in the battle of Cerro Gordo. He re
ceived his discharge in May. 1871. In a military
capacity he was not again known until the present
troubles commenced. when at the monster meet
ing in Union square, New York, he ascended the
principal platform and boldly announced that if
he could get only a few followers he would as
boldly 90 forth and battle for the Union. How
the words of the white haired Senator told upon
the loyal citizens of the North time has already
proven. He organized the California regiment
and led it to the field. When offered a Brigadier
and even a Major Generalship, he refused both,
preferring 70 be at the head of the regiment he
had organized, and, although acting in this battle
as a General. he was simply the Colonel OF the
LIST California regiment which started from this
