1t will be seen by consideration of the
facts stated by Mr.. Chandler, and here pre-.
sented 10 their true light and proper connec.
ton, that the failure of this campaign, the
| proftless expenditure of hundreds of millions
of treasure, and of tens of thousands of lives.
were due, not to any want of capacity nor
courage, nor energy, nor forethought of
Gen. Nice lellan; nor of discipline, nor labor,
nor bravery, nor devotion on the part of his
troops; but that they were the direct, natu.
raj and necessary result of the suicidal policy
which deprived the general-in>chief of part
of his command, and transferred the control
of our armies and the conduct of the war,
to an irresponsible committee and an incom-
petent civilian.
So long as our armies were under one
military head, and those of the rebels were
directed by their war Office and its influences
in Richmond, we were favored with con-
tinued and unbroken series of victories. The
rebels took warning, and established the
office of cOmmander-in chief. While they
were doing this. powerful faction was at
work to reverse the process with US. Our
commander in-chief was, amid the triumph.
ant rejocings of the consprators, deprived
Of his position, and bis duties were trans.
ferred to our war Office and its influences.
The results of this change of policy On both
sides have shown themselves all over the
country.j
But whatever have been the errors into
which the President has suffered those un>
der him to be led, be has only needed to see
them plainly to apply remedy. His
heart, at least, is in the right place. His
worst enemy has not accused him OF any
controlling emotion save the purpose to do
all in his power for the good of his coun.
try. The failures have taught him the err
rors of the past twelve months. Gen. Hal
leck has assumed the military conduct of
the war. The plans of the campaign which
are now determined upon will not be botch
ed by an incompetent Secretary or med
ding community. General Mcclellan will
get strength instead of weakness through
the wire which connects his headquarters
with the war Office, and we reveal no more
than the country has right to know when
we say that combinations have been formed,
plans already set on foot and approaching
their crisis which will vindicate the wisdom
of President Lincoln in this last act, and
the mastery ability of Gen. Mcclellan il
his past campaign and in the new one now
begun.

SIP cial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON Aug. IL, 1862.
The war department has decided to sub.
divide the States into military districts, so
that each district may be credited with the
number of volunteers it has furnished under
the new calls, and have them deducted from
its quota when the draft is applied.
The navy department will advertise to-
morrow for proposals for building a number
of heavy gunboats, iron clad and partially
on the plan of the Monitor, with revolving
turrets and heavy ornaments. 1t is stated
that two of them are designed for use on the
lower Ohio, and the rest of them for the
Mississippi below Cairo. An effort is max.
ing to have the work done exclusively in
Western shops.
1t is understood that farther exemption
from drafting is likely to be made in favor
of skilled employees engaged in the govern.
ment manufactures, as in armories, coasting.

power, consisting Of two horizontal direct
acting engines, with cylinders of fifty inches
diameter and thirty inches stroke, intended
to make eighty-fve revolutions per minute,
and to drive brass four bladed propeller
of thirteen feet diameter and eighteen feet
pitch. The boilers are four in number,
known as horizontal tubular, each being
seventeen feet front, eleven feet deep and
eleven feet high, of collective force of
1000 horses. Though the boilers and ma.
cbinery and coal bunkers occupy considera-
BILE space, there is ample room for officers
quarters and the accommodation of the
crew. The New-irOnsides has but three
decks-the orlop deck, in consequence of
the light draft of the frigate being dispensed
with. On the spar deck the circles have
been laid for the pivot guns and the joiners'
work on it is in very forward state. A
number of joiners are at work on the gun
deck, fitting up the Captains quarters,
which are spacious and well lighted.

the Lleuteant down, are quartered on the
berth deck. The cabins of these, with the
ward rooms, are all completed and ready

These include the commander, Lieutenants,
Masters, Surgeons, Chaplain, Engineers,
Lieutenant of Marines, Midshipmen, Mas,

the Ironsides is of the same tonnage as the

inasmuch as she is to be dismanted before
going out. The armament OF the frigate,
consisting sixteen 1l-inch Dahgreen guns
on the gun deck, aud two 200 FOUNDER Par-
rot guns on the spar deck, has been receiv'
ed at the yard, and will be put on board as
soon as the iron carriages are ready. The

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT-Let then the
aged woman be no longer the object OF
contempt. She is helpless as a child,
but as a child she may be learning the
last lesson from her Heavenly Father.
Her feeble step is trembling on the brink
Of the grave; but her hopes may be
firmly planted on the better shore, which
lies beyond. Her eyes are dim with suf-
fering and tears but her spiritual Wis
ion may be contemplating the gradual
unfolding Of the gates of eternal rest.
Beauty has faded from her form; but
angels in the world of light may be
weaving a wreath of glory for her brow.
Her lip is silent, but may be only wait
ing to pour forth celestial strains of graf
itude and praise. Lonely and fallen and
sad, she sits among the living; but ex-
alled, purified and happy, she may arise
from the dead. Then run if thou wilt,
from the aged woman in her loneliness,
but remember she is not forsaken Of her

AN INCIDENT.-I knew Of a lady who
had two little girls-Josie and Etty-
who sometimes quarrelled. Josie was
six, aud Etty four. One day they had a
grand dispute, and Josie struck ETY.
The mother, wishing TO show them the
results of evil passions, told them the
story of Cain and Abel, saying in con-
clusion Cain struck his brother, and
his brother died but Cain lived and
suffered and suffered
Josie was much affected by the recital
and she aherward repeated it as nearly
in her mothers language as she could,
abel died, you know, ETY. she
would say. Now do you remember
what Cain did ?
Lived and tuffered and tuAered,'
would be the response from the little
one.
There was no more quarrelling for
some time, but suddenly a terrible out
break occurred, and down came Josie's
little fist on Etty's curly head. Here it
became apparent that the youngest one
had received the most practical good
from the lesson, for instead of giving
blow for blow, she looked up quietly, and
with great slowness asked: Who killed
he butler?

Pathways III Palestine.

The pathways of Thy land are little changed
Since Thou vert there;
The busy world through other ways has ranged,
And left these bare.
The rocky path still climbs the glowing steep
OF OliYet;
Though rains Of two mlleniums wear it deep,
Men tread it yet.
Still to the gardens DER the brook it leads,
Quiet and low;
Before his sheep the shepherd on it treads,
His voice they know.
The wild fig throws broad shadows DER it still,
As onoe oer Thee;
Peasants go home evening up that hill,
To Bethany.
And, as when gazing Thou didst weep DER them,
From height to height,
The white roofs of discrowucd Jerusalem
Burst on our sight
These ways were strewcd with garments once,
and palm,
Which we tread thus;
Here through Thy triumph, on Thou passcde,t
calm,
On to Thy cross.
Tho waves have washed fresh sands upon the
shore,
OF GmHIce;
But chisclcd the hilsiles cyermore
Thy paths we see.

The OCCUPATION AND EVACUATION

IHE OCCUPATION AND EVACUATION
or MALVERN HILL.-Our reconnoiter-
ing division took possession on Tuesday,
and the Generals Of the army went up,
and General Mcclellan sent back for
the greater part of his army, but the
messengers took the wrong road, and thus
delayed so long that the troops did not
reach Malvern Hill until it was too late.
Only portion of those sent for arrived
at all, and they beat a hasty retreat.-.
This was on Wednesday morning, and
on that day great battle would have
been fought had our forces arrived in
season. As some Of them were approach
ing, and in sight of Malvern Hill. there
was very large force of rebels seen
coming from Richmond-numbering at
least 100000 men filling all the roads,
passage ways and vacant lots, as far as
the eye could reach, and a retreat was
consequently made to Harrison's Land
ing.
General AIaTlAlIan had MANNED for
a great battle, but the enemy were no,
asleep, and had taken possession of Nal
vern Hill.

a DEMoCRAT CoRNERED ON THE
NEGRO QUEsTIoY.-A good story is
told of a Democrat up in Pennsylvania
who came all the way down here to see
a friend in the War Department to re-
moastrate against the enlistment of me-
groes by Jim Lane. He found his way
into the department and after saying that
Pennsylvania would never consent to
fight by the side of black men, he was
asked, "Well, sir, is she ready to fgbt
with white men p His reply was Of
course in the affirmative. "Then you are
ready to VOLUNTEER, suppose ?" "Wen-
no-not exactly" He couldn't go. $50
you stand in this position" sand the gem
tlemen at the War Department, "you
won't fight, and you won't let the govern.
ment use the negroes. Well, we shall
draft white men from Pennsylvania then,
and though you are my old friend, I trust
you will be among the first drafted."-

A Story with a Truthful Moral.
BY ORPHEUs G. KERR.

Matters and things here are still in a
strategic condition, and nauCht has dis
turbad our monotony for week, save
story they tell about the honest Old Abe.
1t seems that two of the conservative
Border State chaps, who are here for the
express purpose of protesting against ev.
erything whatsoever, had discussion
about the Honest Abe, and one chap bet
the other chap that he couldn't, by any
possible means, speak to the president,
j without hearing a small anecdote.
Done !" says the other chap, glee-
fully, " I'll take that be-"
Tnat very same night. at about twelve
O'Clock, he tore frantically up to the
White House, and commenced thunder.
ing al the door, like King Richard at the
gates Of Ascaon. The Honest Abe stack
hs night capped head out of the window.
and says he;
is that you, Mr., Seward ?"
No, SIR says the Border State chap,
gIaring up through the darkness. Il am
messenger from the army. Another
great strategic movement has taken place,
and cur whole amy have been taken pri-
soners by the Southern Confederacy.-
In fact says the conservative chap, fran
ticalIy, The backbone of the rebellion IS
broken AGAIN"
Hem - says the Honest Abe, sha-
king a mosquito from his nightcap, this
strategy reminds me of little story
There was a man out in Iowa, sat down
to play game of checkers with another
man, inducing his friends around him to
lend him the change necessary for stakes.
He played, and be lost at the first game.
Then he played much more cautiously,
but lost the next game. His friends be-
gan to grumble; but, says he Don't
You worry yourselves, boys, and Ill show
sou cute move, pretty soon" So he
played, and he played, and he lost the
third game. Don't be impatient, boys"
says he; you'll see that great move
pretty soon, | tell YOU" Then he played
with great care, taking a longer time to
consider every move. and, by way of
change, lost the fourth game. Close at
tention to what he was about, and minute
calculation, also enabled him to lose the
fifth game. By this time, his friends had
lent him all their change, and he began
to think it was time for that great move
of his to come off. Have you any
more changer" says he. Why, no,
says they. Then" says lie, with great
spirit, the time for that great move l
was telling you about has come at last"
As he commenced to rise from his chair,
instead Of continuing to play, his cleaned
ont friends Jcthought themselves to ask /
him what that famous move was? "Why," |
says he. pleasantly, its to move of for
a ljuIe more change"

munities, consisting of king and queen,
soldiers and laborers. Such especially
are the white ants, whose nests, formed
entirely of clay, sbont Twelve feet high,
and broad in proportion, soon become
clothed with grass, ard when a cluster
of them are placed together, they may be
taken for an Indian village, and are in
fact occasionally larger than the dwell

buildings are sufficiently strong and capa-
cious to inclose and shelter the interior
from all change of weather, and the in
habitantS from the attacks Of natural or
accidental enemies. They are divided
into number of apartments, for the
king and queen, and the nursing of their
numerous progeny as also for the mag
azlnes or Sranaries, where provisions of
various kinds are kept stored. The royal
chamber occupies the center of the
building aud on all sides, above and be-

their common parents, on whose safety
depends the well-being of the whole
