General HIcCleIlan's Letter Relating
.y 10 Pennsylvania Politics.
ORANGE, N. Y, October IL, 1868.

To Hon. Ckas. J. Biddle, Chairman Demo-
cratic StGte Central COmmittee:
DEAR SIR-My attention has been called
to an article in the Philadelphia Press, as
serting that had written to the managers
Of the Democratic meeting at Allentown,
disapprOving the objects of the meeting,
and if voted or spoke it would be in fa-
V0r of Governor Curtin, and | am inform.
ed that similar assertions have been made
throughout the State. 1t has been my
earnest endeaVor heretofore. to eVade any
participation in party or politics. l had
determined To adhere to this course, but il
is obvious that l can not longer remain 10
silence under such misappreheusiOus- /
therefore request you to deny that 1 have
written any such letter or maintained any
such views as those attributed to me in
the Philadelphia Press. desire to state
that having some days ago had full con-
VeFsatiOn with Judge woodward. find
that our views agreed. Il regard his elee-
tfonfas Governor Of Pennsylgania as, call
ed for by the interests OF the nation. l
understand Judge Woodward to be IN favor
of the prosecution of the war with all the
means at the command of the loyal States
until the military power OF, thef rebellion
is destroyed understand him to be of
the opinion that while the war is carried
on with all possible decision and energy
that the policy directing it shOuld be ia
accordance with the principles Of human
iity and the Christian world, nOt,ipjuriRg
private rights aud property, not demanded
by military necessity, and recommended
by military law amopg civilized nations.
And finally understand him to agIeeWith
me in the opinion that the sole great OBJ
jscts of this war are the restoration of the
unity of the nation, the preservation of
the Constitution, aud the supremacy of the
laws of the country. Believing that our
opinions entirely agree upon these points,
would, were it in my power, give to Judge
Woodward my voice and vote. st1,5i.1s

iaIt was difficult to tell the precise import
of the heavy cavalry skirmishiug which
has been going on since Saturday last in
the space between therRapidAn and Rap
.pahRnnock rivers. The fact, however,
that Gen. Meade thought it 20 march the
whole of HE arrt to this side Of the Rap
pahannoek on Sunday, indicated that he
considered himself inenpeed BY something
of far greater 5magnitade Than StdaEss
cavalry. Indeed we kpoy definitely that
q corps of the rebel army attempted at the
close Of last week, BY Grspid n6tthern
march along line neArdthe eastern base
of the Blue Ridge, 70 get on the right flank
OF our army, which was then stationed 81
CulpeppeE Court House; andiWa know thGi
this movement was only prevented BY q
[,skillfql man&dFta9 on tthe part OF Gen.

cut their communications aud Otherwise
embaTrass them. It may be taken for
granled; We judge, that Lee NO Md never
have Attempted anything so daring as this
hanking movement, unless he were pee
pared for battle. and considered himself
able ae 60 cope with ths army under Gen.
10 addition to, the news of the falling
back Of our army on Sunday, we have this
morning the startling intelligsnee that on
Monday and TuesdaY. Gen. Meade eOntip-
neighbOFhOOd Of Manassas Plains,-lhat
the whole force OF Lee has crossed the
Rappahaunock, pressing our rear,-and
that not only was great battle considered
imminent, but rumor even went SO far as
10 say that It commenced at daylight yes
terday on the old Bull Ruu battle-ground.
AS 10 the truth or falsity Of this latest of
the hundred rumors that are daily bred In
Washington, we shall lioubtless have certain
Information IN the course of the day. s!
In these columns, We have more than
once expressed doubt of the accuracy of
the intelligence gsPestsdlyl furnished by
telegraph, that two entire corps OF Lees
hrmy we're sent to Georgia, and that Lee
was left with but a very small force for
the defence Of Richmond aud Virginia..
Il is sure epought. that Bragg received
heavy reinforcements from Lee to enable
him to hold his ground or assume the offen-
siVe in the all important region of North
ern Georgia; but It is not sure that the
twenty or twenty-five Thousand men sent
West by Lee were not made mp 70 him in
good part from the fruits Of the late con-
seriPtion, which the rebels have now had
time to enforce.
Even under these circumstances, how
ever, we doubt Gen. Lees capacity to cir
cumvent or defeat the army OF Gen. Meade.
OF course, the statement is Incredible that
a change in the command of the Army Of
the Potomac is to be effected at this mo-
ment. ,...5 -, ,,31

BURNSIDE RESIGNS.

On the 10th Of November last Gene
raj Mcclellan was deposed from his po
sition Of Commander Of the Army Of the
Potomac, and Gen. Burnside was ap.
pointed in his stead. He was to work
wonders. The army that was to march
forward to Richmond was to "fool away
no more time, but was to 60 it. The
blunders Of his predecessor were to be
followed with fests Of military prowess
that would startle the world. So the Nc.
Clellan haters predicted.
Ten weeks have sped away. The
army moved in compliance with bureau
cratic orders-moved to defeat and close
upon total obstruction. The successor Of
Gen. Mcclellan was = good man, but
could not accomplish even with greater
force what one greater than he had tailed
to accomplish.
Thrice before this time has General
Burnside rendered his resignation, and
thrice has it been refused. This time
he does it publicly, and will accept no
denial.
Gen. Joe Hooker takes his place. He
is agood division General, and may be
able to lead tho army across the Kappa
hammock. 1t is very difficult to tell what
is to be the result. Matters are getting
mixed. The end is yet to come.
