The successful escape of Lee, with the
remnant Of his army must be mOrtihca-
tion 10 General Meade, as it is sore dig
onDo;ntment to the whole country. True,
The Potomac army was greatly worn with
fatigue By battles and long marches, but
Lees army, defeated, cut up, beaten, rOut-
ed. despondent, was in worse condition,
but vet pushed on in heavy marches to the
swollen, unfordable river. scow boats,
pontoon bridges, ETC., were constructed
and his entire army, with unimPortant
exceptions, baggage, heavy ordnance ana
plunder were passed over. The rebels
trembled lest Meade should attack them IN
transitu, with a part Of their army on
one side, and a part on the other, OF the
Potomac. Such an attack would have
been destructive and effective. The rebels
themselves admitted ihis-they expected
an attack and felt hopeless. Lees ad-
vance reached the river on Sunday,
bridge was finished by Monday noon, and
a great rush was made to get across. why
did not Maada mavA uRnn the AnA"y -
Did he rely upon the high water OF the
Potomac, to check the retreat? Vain re-
lance. Monday afternoon at three o'clock
Lee and his staff fordsd The river, and two
hours later, Stuart and his cavalry fOrded
it. Meanwhile, Lee in his rear, threw up
forti6eations and made show of getting
ready for battle. By this feint did ne de-
oeive and outwit Meade
General Meade called q council OF his
CORDS commanders, and al decided against
q pursuit and attack, except Generals
Howard and Wsdsworth-they urged-and
subsequent revelations show how wisely
an instant, vigorous movement. That
nsvement was not made. Meade relied
pDop the advice Of his corps commanders
He besitated, he delsyed-and when be
did move. he reached WilliamspOrt to have
the mOrtifying fact stare him in the face
that he was one day loo Iatsl The enemy
had successfully finished his passage Ovel
the river the day before.
This is not the first time that the halt
ing, hesitating advice of corps command
ers has been disastrous TO movements o.
the Potomac army. The Potomac army
needs, has long needed a commander, will
frmness Of will, and far reaching discern
ment sufficient to plan, execute and g
forward, sometimes, in spite Of the tremo
ling, timid counsels of corps commanders
General Meade, We dare say, regrets, AM
will always regret that he did not in TIL
case. reject the fatal cOunsels of the ma
iority, and act upon the advice Of Gener
ais Howard and WadswOrth.
It is to be hoped that the energy, tn
skill and perseverance of Meade yet to b
developed will atone for the blunder
not Meeting Lee during his passage aOrOs
the Potomac, and that the broken and dis
pirited army of the rebels may yet
successfully assailed by General Meade
advancing columns.

- The Address Of Vailandighnm.
at is needless to publish entire the ao-
dress which C. L. Vallandigham dates
a Niagara Falls, July 15tb," and which is
published in the Buffalo UOurior Of yester-
day morning. It's purpOrt is best ex-
planned in an extract from it in which Mr..
Vallandigham says:
al return now with allegi-
ance to my own State and Government un-
broken in word, thought or deed, and with
every declaration and pledge to you while
at home, and before I was stolen away,
made good in spirit and to the very letter.
After this declaration it needs not the
additional one that he returns with his
Convictions as TO war peace
not only unchanged but confirmed and
strengthened" to tell US that he is in favor
of Withdrawing the Federal armies, giving
up the contest, and granting all that is
asked by the rebels.
With all Of Mr.. VsllAndigham's posi-
tiOns we certainly differ, but the whole
country must TeHu Win tlO oA'i SA1iiNJ " -
credulity that the rebels "are better prepar-
ed now every way to make good their in
exoraBle purpose than at any period since
the beginning Of the struggle" The sub
traction from their armies at Gettysburg
Vickburg Port Hudson, Helena, near Tul-
lahoma, and at Big Black, Of nearly OF
quite eigIy.fUs thousand men, renders this
statement an impOssibility. They eaHHO
be as formidable as they have been.
Want of space fOrbids further commen
at this time. This Address is only rePi
tition Of Vallandigham's old arguments
with even more bitterness than usua
lL-sra in. II will be read with deligh
BY his late entertainers at Richmond.

Ths Reporrs IRON Charleston.

There we're various rumors yesterday
regarding the fall of Charleston. None
of them, how ever, are considered definite
enough to pin ones faith upon. The Gin
cinnati Gazette, which is generally eau
dOus and reliable, of yesterday morning,
believed in the reporrs, as will be seen by
the following;
Charleston has fallen We make
this announcement, which will send q
thrill of joy and pride through every
patriotic heart, with that doubt which
news "too good to be true" almost always
inspires, and yet there is scarcely room for
doubt. Alta late hour last night, or rather
this morning, an official dispatch from
General Rosecrans to General Halleck
passed over the wires, announcing that
on Tuesday, July l4th, Charleston sur
rendered.
"This intelligence was derived by Gen
Rosecrans from his scouts, and is believed
to be true beyond question"
We hope this is true, but propose to wait
thinking it more than probable that the
report is premature.
The following is the naval feet which
probably participated in the attack:

Consolidation Of Departments.

The Departments Of North and South
Carolina have been consolidated and Gen
eral Foster appointed to command. Gen
eral Foster has proved his title to bravery,
discretion and great military ability.
With Foster, Gilmore and Dahlgren in
command, there will be warm work for
Beauregard.
Captain Rodgers, commanding one Of the
irOn-clsds in Charleston harbOr, arrived at
Washington on Wednesday. He is enthu-
siasiic in his belief that the days Of the
modern Sodom are numbered. In the next
attack the capacity Of our irOn-clads to
cope with stone and brick walls, to say the
least, will be fairly tested.

governor Tod,s Elephant.

On the 18th inst, about the time John
Morgan was making his way into Indiana
and galloping through the country toward
the Ohio line, Governor Tod issued 3
Proclamation calling out sll the militia of
the southern counties Of the State and
ordering each and every man to report at
the camps of rendezvous with tin cup
and blanket. The call was most promptly
and msgnifcenfly obeyed. The "sble-
bodied" poured intOI Camps Dennison,
Portsmouth, Marietta and Chase by humid
reds and thousands. Columbus was de-
populated, everybody having gone to
camp. They poured into Camp Chase un-
til the barracks were full; until the extra
buildings were packed; until thousands
slept upon the ground; until there were
far too many Of them. The Governor didn't
know what to do with them. He couldn't
equip them nor give them anything to do.
By the time they were organized, John
Morgan had swept across the State and
was trying to find fordable place in the
Ohio, and therefore it is that the following
order is issued:
The STATE OF OHIO, EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
COLUMBUS, July 18th, 1868.
WHEREAS, The Military force now as
sembled at Camp Chase in obedience to
nv Proclamation Of the 18th inst, con
tains in the aggregate larger military
force than is now deemed necessary tc
maintain: It is hereby ordered that one
half of the number of p-ivates in each
company organization, De At Uuv1 dfsnui55-
ed and sent to their respective homes, and
relieved from all further service unde1
said call.
The commanding officers Of the severn
company organizations shall determine b.
lot the names of their command who arr
relieved from duty. The two Volunteei
Companies from the counties Of Delawar'
aud Champaign, who generously volun
teered their services, are relieved from al
further service. The pronptness ant
alacritg with which the troops now re
Iieved responded to the call is fully sppre
ciated. and the Commander-in-Chie
avails himself of this opportunity to re
turn TO them his profound thanks therefor

A PROCLAMATION.
It has pleased Almighty God to harken to the
supplicauons and prayers of an afflicted people,
and to youehsafe tq the army and navy Of the the
nal and so effective success as to furnish reason
able grounds for augmented confidence that the
Union of these States will be maintained, their
Constitution preserved, and their peace and
prosperity permanently preserved; but these
victories have been accorded not without sacri-
fee of life, limb and liberty, incurred by brave,
patriotic and loyal citizens Domestic atfheaon

recognize and confess the presence of the Al

Now, therefore, be it known that do set
apart Thursday, the strth day Of August next,
to be observed as a day for National ThanksgiY-
ing, praise and prayer, and invite the people oil
the United States to assemble on that occasion IN
their customary places of worship, and IN the
form approved by their own conscience, render
the homage due to the Divine Majesty for the
wonderful things He has done in the Nation s
behalf and invoke the influence of HIS Holy
Spirit, to subdue the anger which has produced,
and so long sustained a needless and cruel re-
oelliOn to change the hearts of the insurgents

wisdom adequate to so great National ener-

iation throughout the length and breadth of our

marches, voyages, battles and sieges, have been
