THcCIe Hams OHcinI, Report of the Rat-
Gles of SOmts Mountain md Antietam

Hes On SS"aH MSAnaaIn and AntIetam.
WASHINGTON, September 30
The following report of the victory of Ante.
tam has been forwarded to the headquarters o
the Army, by Gen. Mcclellan
NEAR SHARPsBURG. September 90
"To Maj. Gen. H. W. HaIleck, Gen-in Chief U. s. A.
II have the honor to report the following as
some of the results of the battle of South Noun
tain and Antietam -
Sat South Mountain our loss was 443 dead
1880 wounded and 76 missing total 2,3i5.-
At Antetam our loss was 1910 killed, Sale
wounded and ] ,044 missing total IL, 400 To-
tai loss in the two battles, ID, 1914.
THE loss Of the rebels in the two battles as
near as can be ascertained, from other data,wil
nor fall short of the following estimate.
Major Davis, Assistant Inspector General,
who superintendent the burial of the dead, res
ports about 5000 rebels buried upon the field
of Antietam by our troops Previous to this,
however, the rebels had buried many of their
own dead upon distant portion of the battles
field, which they occupied after the battle, prob
ably about 500.
This loss of the rebels at Sooth Mountain can
not be ascertained with accuracy. but as our
troops drove them from the beginning of the
action, as much greater number of their dead
was seen on the field than of our own men 1t is
not unreasonable to suppose that their loss was
greater than ours. Estimating their killed at
500. the total rebels killed in the two battles,
would be 1000. According to the ratio OF our
killed and wounded, this would make their loss
in wounded 1912
las nearly as can be determined at this time
the number of prisoners taken by our troops in
the two battles will at the lowest estimate
to 5000. The full returns will no doubt show
larger number. OF theseabout l, 200 are
wounded.
"This gives rebel loss in killed, wounded
and prisoners of 25, 543.
sit will be observed that this does not in,
clude their stragglers, the number of whom is
said to be, by citizens, very large. Itmay be
safely concluded that ike rebels lost at least
10000 of their best troops.
From the time our troops first encountered
the enemy in Maryland until he was driven back
into Virginia, We captured thirteen guns, seven
caissons, and nine limbers. two field FORCES, two
caisson bodies, thirty-nine colors, and one sig
nal flag
1--WE have not lost single gun or color.
On the battlesfeld of Antietam $4,000 small
arms were collected, besides the large number
carried off by citizens, and those distributed
on the ground to recruits and other unarmed
men arriving Immediately after the battle.
''At South Mountain no collection of small
arms was made, owing to the haste of the pur-
suit from that point. -Four hundred were taken
from the opposite side of the Potomac.

| POLITICIANS.-Th Democratic politicians
have for years been trying to monopolize the
business of Governing the country, to the en-
tire exclusion Of all honest men. There is
nothing Democratic editors and stump orators
have SO loudly and bitterly acclaimed against,
| as what they have styled "politics in the pull
pit" Ministers have been especially tabooed,
as having no bushes to vote or speak, in re-
ference to the civil government of the country
If minister has ever ventured to express an
opinion in reference to the men or the meas
ures of Government, he has raised howl from
the whole Democratic Press, about the sin of
! mingling politics and relgion-politics in the
pulpit-and all that kind of jargon. They
could not rob man because he was preach
er of the Gospel, of the right of suffrage, by
law, but they would have been glad to have
done it. and they have done the next thing to
it--tried their best to create popular preju,
dice that would take the place of enactment,
aud prevent the entire body of the clergy from
taking any active part in determining the
character OF the rulers Or the legislation of the
country.
Now, there is another cass-and large
class too of our citizens whom they would fai
disranchise. They have just found out that
it is very ngerous-altogether subversive of
all governments-very unconstitutional and
all that, to allow our soldiers to vote. The
arguments against the Military suffrage bill,
which, in spite of Democratic illiberality and
hatred of Union Soldiers, has become a law
were based on the most unsubstantial and un-
reasonable grounds. One Of the main argu-
ments, was, that it was wrong to introduce poll
itics into the army. They could only see that
it ''opened the door to the most illimitable
frauds in the conduct of our elections" 1t is
the same old story of politics in the pulpit
The Democracy as party has ever been afraid
of the intelligence, morality and good citizen
ship, represented by the clergy, and now it
seems they are just as much afraid of the Pas
triotism, love of Country and regard for the
constitution and devotion to the Union, repre-
sGnted by the vote of our volunteer soldiers
Military suffrage billwill deceive no one. The
real objection, that they could succeed in dis
franchising the 80 or 5000 voters of this State
now fighting the battles Of the country, they
would stand fair chance of regaining their
lost and much abused power But they have
failed in this preliminary maneuvre, and they
will fail also, only moro ANONYMOUSLY, of the
accomplishment of the final plan.
The fact is Democracy would like to make
politics and everything connected with our civ.
| il government, the sole business of Dema-
gogues. Politics should not be discussed by the
army, nor by any other influence that goes ei>
Their, directly or indirectly, against the Demo
cratic party. privileged order of "Politi,
clans" should be established for their special
| benefit.
