Gen. McClellan'a Testimony.

Ge0. McCl6ll2U d 4SStaWouy.
Gen. McClellan's testimony, On yesterday,
at the trial of General Mcdowell, was to the
following effect:
The substance of communication to witness
by Gen, Franklin from the President, was that
the President assumed the responsibility Of the
change ofdestination Of Gen Mcdowell S corps,
regarding that corps as necessary TO the de-
fence Of Washington, althoug gh-the witness
proceeded to say-the troops actually left in
Washington and in front disposable for it's de-
fence. were rather more than double the gar
rison fixed by the engineer and artillery Off
GERS and considerably more than the largest
number recommended by any Of the corps
commanders to be left in the vicinity Of Wash
ington.
Witness does aot now recall any communi-
cation made to the President BY him in reletion
to this disposition of McDowelrs corps. 1t
would be necessary for witness to consult his
papers before answering definitely. HI remem-
bered receiving dispatch from Gen. Franklin
to the effect that, in Gen. T. opinion and

4 COPY Of the New York Herald, containing
report Of q speech made at Tarrytown, Oct.

Mcclellan had stated that he had been untor-
tunate in not taking Richmond because OF the
failure of Gen. Mcdowell to reinforce him as
expected and promised, was submitted to the
witness at this point of the examination.
Witness said the incident related in the
speech was certainly new to him, and he was
very sure he had never made the remark at
tributed to him in the connection stated lie
had no doubt said for it had ever been his
opinion, that the Army Of the Potomac would
have taken Richmond had not the corps OF

EAT LEIsURELY If to digest food we
should enjoy it, it should of course be taken
lelsurey, and in pleasant stale of mind. The
cheerful society oftrendS should not be absent,
Chatted fond, the proverbs say, is hall dges-
ted. And the longer tine spent over the meal
thus socially enjoy ed has its part in tile bene-
fit Next TO anxiety, the worst foe to diges-
ton is hurry and this for several reasons
The stomach in its normal action contracts on
each article as it is swallowed, and relaxcs
again to receive The next. Insufficient time
allowed for this interferes with the rhythm of
its movemt nls and disor !ers the play of lis
muscles. Cramps, and painful feelings of dis
tensions could have no more likely cause.
That haste cuts short mastication is obvious,
and on the perfection of thai process chiefly
depends the rapdty with which the solution
of the food can he effected.
Again it creates an artificial thirst partly by
not allowing time for the due ADM hture of sa-
Iva; and above all, it deprives us of the ma
tural guide TO the proper amount of food and
RENTS almost to chance decision than viii h
scarcely any is more important 10 our we l.
being. For the natural indication of suffi
cheney of food is the feeling OF satisfaction !;
not safety, which is always symptom of ex-
cess, but feeling of perfect comfort, the true
luxury of eating. This feeling the hurried
eater cannot know; il never exists for him.
Either the unnatural violence to the stomach
induces premature feeling of repIetion, and
stnts him to his due supply, or he eats on un-
til the warning (which ever comes to late) of
safety arrests him.
But perhaps it is in vain to protest, to hur.
ried men, against hurry in their eating and it
is well, therefore, that there exists means by
which its il effects may be to great degree
escaped. Meat may be eaten rapidly, if cut
fine, even with very little mastication. Ami.
NAL food, if well divided, may be, without
much fisk, almost holted but vegetable food
may not. The reason of this difference is,
that the digestion of the former is carried on
entirely by the secretions of the internal or
gans; that OF the latter depends in considera.

GREAT BRITAIS-The death of Prince Albert in
England, seems to be deeply lamented The Queens
family appears to be much affected by the event.
He was kind husband and father, a man of intel
Igence and high social and moral character; we'll
wsher and promoter of the happiness of the Queens
SUBJECTS liberal patron of the arts, and friend
of improvement A late London Times has some
pregnant suggestions in regard to the young Prince
OF Wales the successor to the crown upon the death
OF Queen Victoria. The "Thunderer" very point
edly hints that the young man, without an entire
change in his character and course, will be very
unfit accession to the crown of England. 1t calls
upon him to decide at once, whether he will change
his course and maintain the dignity of his position,
or will waste his talents and the labor bestowed
upon him in frVolty and trifing We judge the
young man is what one would call in this age q
fist one.
