STARTLING FACTS.
McClellan's Disgraceful Con-
duct at Malvern Hill.

GEN. KEARNEY CHARACTERIZED
1T AS BEING PROMPTED
BY" "COwARDICE OR
TREASON"
GEN. MARTINpALE SHED TEARS
The Testimony of a Clergyman,

We find the following statement about Nc
Clellan's retreat from Malvern Hill in the Rev.
J. J. Marks able history of The Peninsula
Campaign in Virginia." 1t is piece OF his
tory which will be very difficult for Gen. McClel-
Ian to explain. The statement is the more
important just now from the fact that the Rev.
Mr.. Marks wrote his history Immediately after
Mcclellan abandoned the Peninsula.
1t was not written for political effect, nor by
a politician, but by an army chaplain who was
faithful witness of the scenes which he de-
scribcs. We copy It now for the benefit Of the
people who are invited to vote for the sweet
scented General who ran away from victory
which the glorious old Army of the Potomac
has won. Mr.. Marks says:
The battle was over, but the cannonadihg
still continued, and shells and balls OF every
kind tore through the woods In ceaseless
whilwind of fury. In the meantime thousands
of the Confederates fled in the widest disorder
from the scene, and hid themselves In swamps
and hollows; soldiers without guns, horsemen
without caps and swords, came to the hospitals
in the battle. of Glendale, and reported that
| their regiments and brigades were swept away,
| and that they alone were escaped to tell the
| tale"
| II Is one OF the strangest tnlnRe III TINS week
of disaster that General Mcclellan ordered
retreat to Harrison's Landing, six miles down
the James river, after ne had gained so decided
a victory When this order was received by
the impatient and eager army, CONSERVATION
| and amazement overwhelmed our patriotic and
ardent hosts. Some refused to obey the COM
mand. General lHdrtnddle shed tears Of shane.
The brave and chivalrous Kearney said in the
presence of many ofIicers' 81, Philip KeGrney,
an old soldier, enter my solemn protest against
this order for retredt-ire ought, Instead II re-
/ treating, 10 fOlOW up the enemy and take Rich
,aond. And In full view of all the responsibili-
ty of such declaration, say TO you all, such an
ord'r can only be prompted 6y eoWdrdiee or
treason"
AnG with all, hopelessness and despair sue
ceeded the flush of triumph. In silence and
gloom our victorious Ormy commenced retiring
from an ensmy utterly broken, scattered and panic
stricken.
And when there was not foe within miles
| of us, Ds en our ROUNDED behind 10 perish, and
any one witnessing the wild eogerness OF our
retreat would have supposed that we were In
the greatest peril from vigilant and triumph

AN ARMIsTIcE, OR THE TREASON IN
THE CHICAGO PLATFORM,

THE CHlCA9O PkATFOHm.
The Democratic" Convention, go called,
recently assembled at Chicago, distinctly de-
mands, in Its platform of principles, I" ces-
satlon of hostlllties." A "cessation Of hos
tillties" is, In other words, an armlstice. 1t
becomes the people Of this country carefully
to consider what will be the effect Of an armls-
tice upon our present struggle. We have
blockaded the Southern ports. The effect Of
this blockade has been to reduce the rebels to
extreme want for munitions Of war and sup
plies for their people. Another effect Of 1t
has been that it has prevented the cotton Of
the South from going to market.
This failure Of the supply of cotton to the
world has raised Its price from ten cents to
3Ok pence In gold. In the beginning Of the
war the rebels made loan In Europe based
upon promise to pay that loan In cotton at
ten cents per pound. Cotton now being 80,
pence per pound in price makes this loan worth
thrice the face of 1t, providing the cotton could
be taken out of the Confederacy and sold in
Europe. The hope Of getting out this cotton,
with what is actually carried out by running
the blockade, makes that loan now worth
seventy. six cents on the dollar in gold. The
British Loan, or the Consols Of England, ia
now worth eighty.nine in gold. The United
States Loan is worth about forty in gold.
Foreign nations have endured eur blockade,
ing the war. If an armlstice should be de-
clared, there would be no reason why the
powers of Europe might not demand the Open
ing ofthese Southern ports. The opening of
these ports would Immediately take the cotton
Of the South to European markets, place the
Confederate loan at high premium and enable
the Confederacy to get all the money 1t needed.
With this money it could build prlvateers so as
to sweep our commerce literally from the seas.
l. could supply itself with arms and NUM-
tions of war, with provisions and all the neces-
stiles of life, so as to leave no possible hope Of
ever crushing the rebellion. For these reasons
George ". Saunders telegraphed from Canada 10
The "HoH." Mr.. Weir that he NOMINEE Of the Chi
cdgo convention should not DC opposed.
In this brief manner we indicate to the people
of this country the reasonable purpose of the
managers of the Chicago convention, and the
kind of work to be expected of Major General
George B. Mcclellan should he be elected.

The New York Herald contains the following
dispatch:
FALLING WATERS, Aug. Sl.-Gen. Averil's
cavalry attacked the enemy to-day ON the Win
chester pike, and drove him beyond ClarksOn-
Vile; also pressed the enemy's pckets upon
the GerrardstOwn ard Charlestown roads, on
the Winchester pike. The enemy's pickets
were reinforced, but held in check until shortly
aher O'Clock, p. m, when the rebels advanced
with an infantry division and artillery, show
ing but little cavalry. On the rebel advance
being made, a brief engagement ensued, the
enemy showing a much greater force than our
own.
Our casualties are light. Lieut.. Hagerty,
company c, 18th Pennsylvania, is among the
wounded.
This morning a dispatch was received from
Gen. Kelley, at Cumberland, that all was quiet
In that neighborhood; that Mcneil, with about
$50 men, was between Romney and Hanging
Rock, threatening a raid.
The result of the operations Is what was ex-
pected and was desired. The reOccupati0n of
Martinsburg by the enemy tonight is not to be
regretted.

follows:

GENERAL HATcH.-We are glad to learn that
Brigadier General Edward Hatch has so far re
covered Of his wounds as TO be again in COM
mand Of division OF cavalry. After opening
the railroad, he has recently been operating in
face Of the enemy's guns. He crossed the Tai
lahstchie river, attacked and drove Chalmers
below Oxford some 90 miles. He then fell back
for rations and forage. Chalmers and Forrest
soon formed a junction and occupied one of
the strongest positions In Mississippi, place
called Hurricane Creek. On the 14th ultImo
General Hatch attacked and whipped them
both fairly, turned both of their fanks, and
captured the caissons Of their artillery and also
some prisoners. By his devotion to the dis
cipline and equlpplng of his division he will
soon have 1t in good lighting trim, and defeat
will be ever unknown to 1t where he commands.
