The Reduetion Of Riehmond.

The Richmond papers are specuIating up.
on the chances Of another Federal advance
upon that city. The Examiner of the Sd
inst, in leading editorial, argues that the
Northern Government is about to make
its third throw for Richmond. After reck-
Oning, as well as it can, the forces en-
braced in the old army and the new, it
says: ~
With this date, thededuction is newt
able that we must expect to see an army
actively and directly employed in q third
attempt at the reduction Of the city, which
fate, nature, and fortune have combined to
render the chief strategic point of the war.
"0n the direction from which the new
danger IS 70 come, there are now really no
facts sufficiently ascertained to assist US
in forming q judgment. The popular op-
inion is that the next advance on Richmond
will be from the direction of Fredericks-
burg, probably because all other points Of
the compass have been tried and failed
But one reflection is sufficient to satisfy
us that this suppositioD is improbable.
From Fredericksburg to Richmond is a
march Of so miles. From Durreys Bluff
to Richmond is march Of so miles. 1t is
very difficult to believe that in a war with
a naval power, the danger Of Richmond is
to be looked for in any other direction than
that Of its navigable water. 1t is not i'm
probable that Fredericksburg may be again
occupied as part Of the proposed Union
scheme of an advance from Centreville,
intended 10 cut off Lees communication
with this city. But the serious blow will
be hit, as before, from the river, which we
may again see assembled by a new army
and a new general, hoping to take Rich
mond by repairing the blunders of McClel-
Ian, and profting by his dear-bought ex-
perience.
"But Richmond viii never fall while it is
defended by an army like to that which
surrounded it last June. The only ques-
ton is whether the army defending Rich
mond now is equal to its predecessor Let
us hope that during these three precious
months, while the North has been calling
q host more numerous than locusts into
existence, the Confederate Government has
not been occupied only in expecting foreign
Intervention or the extinction Of the war
by the North dismay and exhaustion. Let
US trust that it has done something better
than the issue Of proclamations, the crea-
tion of an Office holders party, the pur-
chase Of organs and occupied itself with |
something more serious than the war of
pinehes and pin-stickings on all those who
do not choose to bow and kiss the earth be- |
fore those Of their fellow-creatures whom |
fortune has gilded with the fittering
CLEANS Of passing prosperity"
The Enquirer, Of the 4th, has an article |
urging prompt and energetic |
to meet the coming shock,
which it says is to be of the most gigantic
Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1862-10-09

McClelIan's Order upon the Proclamation.
General Mcclellan has issued a general
order, enjOining obedience to and acquies-
eenee in the Presidents Proclamation
This is well, provided anything was to be
said about it, for which, it seems to US,
there was no necessity. The General
Commanding instructing his soldiers to
obey the orders Of his superior, and enter
ing into an argument to prove that it is
their duty to obey orders, Is 8 new thing in
war, especially when he was only telling
the soldiers what every one of them knew
before, viz: that the highest authority rest
ed in the civil administration, and it was
the Office of the military TO carry cut the
instructions of that administration. It
looks like an attempt to excuse himself for
asking his army to do as the President di-
rects, and the aIlusion to correcting polit-
ieal errors at the ballot box, is too broad
an intimation that he regards this as a
"political error" which he wishes his SOL
diers to remember. Altogether, the order
has too little Of that earnest support Of
the authority of the Government" which,
the General says, is the highest duty of
the American soldier"
Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1862-10-09

| every soldier. The principle upon which,
| and the objects for which it shall be en-
! ployed in suppressing rebellion, must be
determined and declared by the civil au-
| thorities, and the Chief Executive, who is
charged with the administration Of Ma
( tional affairs, is the proper and only source
through which the views and orders Of the
Government can be made known TO the
armies of the nation.
Discussion by officers and soldiers con-
cerning public measures determined upon
and dictated by the Government, and when
carried at all beyond the ordinary temper
and respectful expression Of opinion, tends
greatly to impair and destroy the disci-
pline and efficiency of troops by substitut-
ing the spirit of political faction for that
firm, steady and earnest support Of the au-
thority Of the Government, which is the
highest duty of the American soldier.
The remedy for political errors, if any
are committed, is to be found only in the
action of the people at the polls.
In thus calling the attention of this ar
my to the true relation between the SOL
diers and the Government the General
commanding merely adverts TO an evil
against which it has been thought advisa-
bic, during our whole history, to guard the
armies of the Republic, and in so doing, he
will not be restricted by any right-minded
person, as casting any reflection upon that
loyalty and good conduct which has been
so fully illustrated on so many battle-felds.
In carrying out all measures Of public
policy, this army will of course be guided
by the same rules of mercy and Christian
itv that have ever controlled its conduct
towards the defenseless.
By command of Major General McClel-
Ian.
