Gen. NagIee to Judge Kelley.


Every citizen who desires to be correctly
informed as to the circumstances attending
the Peninsula campaign against Richmond,
and to catch glympse of the secret histo-
ry of the war, should no. fail to read the
letter written by Bligadisr General NAeLEE
to Judge KELLEY, of Philadelphia, which
We publish this morning. The re cord OF
SrANToN's duplicity and deception is suAi.,
Gent to make honest and honorable men
turn away, with q sickening sensation Of
disgust, from the man who would.so basely
betray his friend.
1t is shown, by this let that after Mr.,
LINCOLN had concluded to adopt the plan
proposed by General MCCLELLAN. he en-
trusted the execution of it to three of the
four generals who had opposed it in the
council. He also, almost as soon as Gene
raj MCCLELLAN had left Washington city
to enter upon the campaign, deprived him
of the men who were necessary for the
success Of the movement, and who presence
had been relied upon when the plan was
formed. 1t is thus easy to fix upon the
proper shoulders the responsibility for the
failure of the campaign, and for the prolon
gstion of the war. If McCLELLAN's Pc
ninsula campaign had succeeded, ac-
cording to his anticipation, in the cap
ture of Richmond and the destruction Of
LEES army, who can doubt that the war
would have ceased, and the Union been re-
stored, before the close Of the year 1862
Since that time two years of bloody and
relentless arfare have dragged their slow
length along" thousands of brave men,
both North and South, have been stricken
dead upon the field of battle; millions Of
dollars have been expended and still the
war continues and, even should the Federal
arms prove as successful as the most san
guine dare to hope, must continue, at least,
during the remainder of this year. 1t is a
fearful thought, but we cannot resist the
conviction, in view of all the circumstan>
ces, that all the blood that was shed by
both armies during the years Of 1868 and
1864, the money that was expended, and
all the misery that was produced by the
war, rests upon the head of him who
caused the failure of the campaign Of 1862,
which would, in all human probability,
have brought us peace, had General Nc
Clellan received that hearty cooperation
which he had right to expect.

Andrew Iohnson's Record.

lTh LINCOLN newspapers have a great
deal to say about "PENDLEToN's record
and, with all their searching, they are un.
able to find that he ever uttered word or
recorded vote in favor of disunion. But
why don't they hunt up and publish the
record of ANDREW JOHNSON, their own can
didate for Vice President? They would
find in it much matter of interest to their
readers. For instance; after Lincoln's cleo"
ton, Mr.. JOHNSON wanted to protect slave
ry by an amendment to the Constitution
providing more ample guarantees. For this
purpose he introduced in Congress the fol-
lowing resolution which we find on page 80
of the Congressional Globe for ls60-6l. 81
Mr.. johnson, of Tennessee introduce
the following resolution, with view Of re-
ferriug it at the proper time:
'"Resolred, That the select committee of
, thirteen be instructed to inquire into the
expediency of establishing by constitution
al provisions: l. A line running through the
territory of the United States, not included
within the States, making an equitable and
just diviston of said territory, south of which
line slaosry shall be recognized and protec-
ted as property, By ample and full constitu
tional guarantees, and north of which line
| it shall be prohibited. 2. The repeal Of all
acts of Congress in regard to the res
toration of fugitives from labor, and an er
,,lacif declaration in the Constitution, that
it is the duty of each State .for itsetf to re-
turn fugitive staues when demanded by the
proper authority, or pay double their cash
ua1s out of the treasury Of the State.
8. An amendment of the Constitu lion,
declaring that slavery shall erist in navy
yards, srsenals, &C., or not, as it may be
admitted or prohibited by the states in which
navy yards, arsenals, &C., may be situsted.
4. Congress shall neuer interfere sOith slacery
in the District of Columbia, so long As it
shall exist in the State of Maryland, nor
euen then, without the consent Of the inhab>
itants and compensation to the owners. 5:
Congress shall not touch the representation of
three ttths of the starss, nor the interstate
staue trade, coast,oise or inland. 8. These
provisions to be unamendable, like that which
relates to the equality Of the States in the
Senate" 81. E'k W. D.
That will do for this time. We will pre-
sent further items from Mr. JOHNSON s
"reoord" as soon as the Abolitionist sup
porters of sandy" have recovered from this
dose. ......sg -.......t .BsUa

LOCKING CAR DooRs.-Siuce the late ac-
cIdent on the Pennsylvania Railroad, by
which number of lives were lost, locks
have been arranged on the cars which ODE
from the inside only. The object of having
the car doors locked is to prevent way pas
sengers from getting into the cars with
through passengers, which would thereby
render it necessary for tickets to be shown
By all the passengers at every station there.
by giving an extra amount Of tronble to
both passenger; and conductors. 49,

OVER THE RIVER.

 i He crossed in the twilight gray and cold, And the pale mist hid him from mortal view I We saw not the angels who met him there,
 The gates of the city we could not see,- l Over the river, over the river, My brother stands waiting to welcome me Over the river the boatman pale Carried another-the household pet; Her brown curls wave in the gentle gale, Darling Minnie! see her yet. She crossed on her bosom her dimpied hands
 And fearlessly enteredthe phantom bark, We feltit glide from the silver sands,
 And all our sunshine grew strangely dark We know she is safe on the further side,
 Where all the ransomed and angels be, g E Over the river, the mystic river, a.s.,, s45-gt,f
 My childhood's idol is waiting for me. For none return from those quiet shores,
 Who cross with the boatman cold and pale; We hear the dip of the golden oars,
 And catch gleam of the snowy sail; And To they have passed from our yearning
 hearts, They CT oss the stream and are gone for aye.
 We may not sunder the veil apart That hides from our vision the gates of day;
 We only know that their barks no more May sail with us o'er lifes stormy sea; Yet somewhere I know on the unseen shore
 They watch, and beckon, and wait for me And sit and think when ths sunsets gold
 Is flushing the river, and hill, and shore, l shall one day stand by the water cold
 And list for tue sound of the boatman's oar I shall watch for n gleam of the Tapping sail,
 shall hear the boat as it gains the strand, shall pass from sight with the boatman pale,
 To the better shore of the spirit land: shall know the loved who have gone before,
 And joyfully sweet will the meeting be, , When over Ihe river. the peaceful river,
 The Angel ot Death shall carry me. az

Autumn Flowing.

Farmels, We cemmendyou, to plow all that is possible this Autumn. There are several reasons why this should be- done. ..l We haze had a great drought, and that being followed, by warm rains, has and will produce an unssu- ally large growth of herbags; which will ehricll the land if turned underJwhile .. grecn.5 If,suir, fered to ripen it's seeds, it will exhaust the soil, and seed it for great crop of weeds next year. Vhen' yon plow,- do it, as though you meant something. Let it be ten inches deep at the least, and then you Will get the benefit of frost, the gre,t refner of hard earth..i If you realty cannot SOW winter grain upon the land that you io plow, let it lay naked. But we assure | you that it would more than pay you for seed- ing land thaS you intend toa aplant with corn next Spring, to put ii. rye, which you will turn under when a foot high. making a great l manure crop.J It is also importi nt to lplow every day that it is possible to do, before frost stops you, because you do. not know how short of time and how costly labor will effect yoh next Spring, and it is your duty to prepare for it now One farmer says of his operations this year of dear labor and drought:
 "Last season plowed in the fall for all my Spring crops. This season, when ready to plant l corn and potatoes, l narrowed the grouni thoroughly and then rolled it.. At this tim,', I have as good field ofcorn as any one would wish to see. and the best I ever had.' ,..i,s.
 Better, probably, than he would have hadif ne nad waited tlii spring 70 liOW the ground, by more than enough to pay four times the ex- pense of blowing. That certainly was our ex- perience in piece of oats. The best piece of oats that we ever grew, was upon ground deepr, | ly plowed in Autumn, manured in Spring and plov ed with subsoil plow, deep as it would run then narrowed to stir the surface and mix the manure then sowed, four bushels to the acre, and the seed plowed in and surface drtgg- ed smooth with a bush.
