lantio and Great Western Railway as follows
The work on the Atlantic and Great West
ern Road IS being pushed with great energy
under the ahls sppcrih terdanqei, Of thesGhief
/ Engineer, Mr.T. w. Kennard. The new ope-
rations on this road was commenced in May

obliged to work against very serious obstacles.

The Three Great Military
Disasters oflSO5.

The three great disasters of the war this
year are the failure to take Richmond iri June
last, the result of Pope IS campaign in Virgin
ia, and the resHlt of Burnside's movements
across the Rappahannofk. y - -.
The first three failures, as is clearly proved
by the evidence in the Mcdowell court-rnar-
tial case, was caused by withholding reinforce
ments, against the deliberate advice and judg-
ment of both Generals Mcclellan and M cDow-
ell. But the skill of the former enabled him
to save his army ard transfer it to the position
from which he Originally intended to advance
on Richmond. Nothing but reinforcements
was wanting to enable him to make this new
sdyapce with success. 80 a.sA
The next signal failure was the Pope cam
paign, connecting with it the Withdrawal of
McClellan's army from HarSison's Lqhdipg on
the James river The army under Pope was
routed, Washington exposed to imminent dan
ger, Maryland and Pennsylvania invaded, and
the rebel tide of success only turned back ty
the skill and energy Of Mcclellan. who, acting
upon his own responsibility, without orders,
drove the rebels back, and saved Washington;
service for which, az the New York WorId
says, ia grateful Administration has rewarded
him by depriving h m of his command" s~
The third great hlpnder was the Burnside
campaign and advance across the Rappahan-
mock. This terrible disaster is too recent, for
the !acts that caused it to- be fully Known
But there cap be no doubt that it was the re-
suit of the mismanagement and ineompetency
of the authorities at Washington, who con-
trolled Burnside, and whose mandates he obey
ed. Nobody pretende to attach any blame to
General Burnside; the responsibility sof this
fearful and needless butchery Of our gsflant
troops must rest upon his superiors. .ff this
blupdering system continues to go on, the
country will be- meyitably ruined. 1t has
now reached the verge or destruction, and its
only hope is an immediate change in those
who control its military policy. IF this be
not done, and that speedily, nothing can save
the Union from utter and hopeless disintegra-
tion and ruin Ohio lSsatesman. sf.5s :.
