army of the United States; yet last Sep
TENDER cit was found, by actual meas
urement, he had advanced his legions
exactly four feet" beyond the line be &C.
cupied one year previous. He is no
doubt a tOIerably good General. bur the
country has no evidence thai he has great
military genius. There were times
when he did not have as many effective
men as he desired. Blu, at not ;ime, We
think, was his army inferior to the ene-
my. Sometimes it must have doubled
that of the COnfederates.
We never wanted Mcclellan removed
because there was any other man that we
had more confidence in. We are not
sure that there is a General in the army
that can do better than Mcclellan, but
we think it was high time TO try the ex-
pertinent.
Burnside, his successor, is Democrat,
consequently his removal can not be
charged on the President as a party
measure. The immediate caus of his
removal is said to be disobedience to the
orders of Gen. Halleck. since the Con.
federate raid into Maryland. The Cab
met, with perhaps one exceptiOn,) and
Gen. Halleck were unanimous in de-
handing his removal. Had ii not been

secession authority in this city, Lee de-
signs to draw our army and Burnside's
over the Rappahannock, which he has
fortified and defends with a force of
100000. while Stonewall Jackson is TO
