rue SEWN DAYS BATTLES.

The most graphic and thrilling account
Of the awful seven days battles up on the
Peninsula, has just been written by a
Prussian officer who was then agaced
in the rebel service, but who is now at
home. a portion Of i. will be found on
the second page.
1t compctel, draws aside the vail and
depicts most faithfully the awful " san
culinary contests o. that week OF carnage
permitting all to sec where the ic-
sponsiblity Of the failure of tn at cam
paign rests. Tne writer neither aims to
yindicate or traducc any officcr-.he briggs
neither for one side or the otLur, abors
10 accuse no one, but as distingul, he'd
military man ard foreigner, who feels TO
spite or jealousy, might do, he writes the
plain history and leaves those who read
to form the own conclusions.
The writer does not accuse the ad
ministratlon at Washington OF being the
means of that most .attrocious slaus hte.,
vet he is confident that the but, hery
would ne.ar have taken place had Gen.
Mcclellan been reinforced by Gen. Nc
Dowell's corps. That would have given
us Richmond that would have pre- vent
ed the seven days fight, and there " ou!d
have been thirty thousand graves loss in
tie dark soil of the Peninsula. So, too,
if Gen. McClcllan> plans had been car
ried out the late awful butchery at FIR, d.
elcksburg would not have taken place.
But read the letter, and read it care
fully. 1t tells much more than as hith-
erto been known Of that bloc DIV cam
