Gen. McCIelIan,s Strategy.

WASHINGTON, July l.
Whatever may be the result Of Nc.
Clellan's splendid movements before Rich
mond, we know that i. cannot exceed
certain limits of misfortune or SUCCESS.
Our army cannot be whipped or cut of;
cannot have so great injury inflicted up
on it as it is able to and will inflict upon
its enemy. But. on the other hand, it
cannot surround and capture the rebel
forces any more than one man can sur
round house. The utmost it can hope
to do is to take Richmond; to pierce the
enemy's centre; to divide and shatter his
columns; to heap his dead in thousands
upon the terrible field.
All intelligent and informed critics at
Washington regard the operations of
Thursday. Friday and Saturday as direct.
ly pointing to the latter results, and as
q strategic success of mag.
nificent and truly Napoleonic character.

traitor, with not one-fourth the ability.
On Thursday evening last, Gen. Blunt
gave Pratt twenty-four hours to leave
the State, and he "skedaddled." We
have not seen the Inquirer since. The
establishment is ill-starred. 1t was the
organ of the Buchanan Despotism, and
"pegged out" at Lccompton, with old
Bucks Administration. Then it was re-
moved to Atchison, whero a traitor sheet,
called the Bulletin, was started; but it had
a short life there. Lastly, it was taken to
Leavenworth, to disseminate treason, but
within five months it has been twice
squelched there.

ment preferred against me by the last

You are aware that preceding the pro-

against the authority of the body as ille-
gally and unconstitutionally assembled. /
am still Of the opinion that the pretended
session Of the Senate Was wholly unau-
:horized by the Constitution and its judg-
ment is nullity. l therefore respectful
y decline to vacate my office as Secretary

settled that tho late assemblage of Sena-
ors had power to act in the premises.
l have the honor to be, very respectful
y, your obedient servant,
