The Next Presidency-what are the
claims OF President LIncoInt

claims OF rrestdent Lincoln!
Under this head the New York Herald thus.
discusses the claims of Mr. LINCOLN to a re-
election:
What has President Lincoln done to entitIe
him to re election? We contend that he has
done nothing to earn this high distinction. but
that, on the contrary, in the conduct of the war,
his deporabe msmsnae ement of our most i'm
pOrtant armies, with the disastrous and alarming
consequences. have furnished evidence sufficient
tn convince the country that he is not the pilot TO
carry through the perils OF this into the
broad and secure anchorage of a re-established
Union
"The rebellion. with the occupation of Rich
mond. might and doubtless would have been put
down in 1861 had not President Lincoln. against
the circumstances of General Scott. prematurely
pushed forward the army under General Nc
Dowell to that first great disaster at Bull Run,
the immediate result of which was the lnss % the
national cause of millions of Union men in the
rehellious States The rebellion, we have every
reason to believe. would have been reduced to a
! general collapse in the summer of 1862 with
; McClellan's occupation Of Richmond, had not
| his plans been upset bv President Lincoln and
| his army divide and scattered about exactly TO
serve the purposes of his vigilant and active
enemy. But, again. there was fair prospect of
| the capture of Richmond before the expiration of
tie year, when Mcclellan was superseded in his
command and General Burnside WAS moved for
ward to his dreadful defeat at Fredericksburg
only TO be followed six months later by the still
more sanguinary and prOitless campaign of Gen.
Hooker to Charlottesville
| But, vet again. there a splendid opportuni-
ty offered for decisive blow to the rebellion
when. from its terrible defeat at Gettysburg, the
shattered. rebel army of Virginia hemmel in
by the swollen Potomac in front and our vctori-
Gus forces in the rear. That opportunity. how
ever. was lost while Gen Meade was awaiting
or'ierS from Washington. He thus waited vet
another day, only to find in the morning that
the enemy had slipped off in the night. From

defeats it had experienced under Gen. Pope,
and far from its base of supplies on the Upper
Potomac. In three weeks from the day when
the command of the shattered legions had
been hurTicdly thrust into his hands, Pennsyl-
vania and Maryland had been delivered, the
capital saved. and the triumphant enemy
driven back in Gefeat beyond the river To
have followed that enemy would, In the cir
cumsiances, have been sheer madness Gen.
Lee had taken up positions and was receiving
endorsements in Virginia. Gen. Mcclellan
at once proceeded 10 urge the rapid reorgan-
ization of his own forces to enable him to re-
sumo the offensive in the encmy's own coun-
try. If am reinforced all ask" he tele-
graphed. '.and am allowed to take my own
course, viii hold myself responsible for the
safety of Washington"
The reinforcement of the army for the
forwarding ofsupplies went on, however, most
slowly. Clothing ordered to Hagerstown on
October 9TH, for instance, did not arrive till
the 18th, nor did the clothing of one corps
reach that corps til the end of the month.
Horses were deficient in great numbers, for
both artillery and cavalry. ~ .
The President visited Gen. Mcclellan in
person during this delay, and reiterated the
strongest assurances of his trust in him, and
his confidence chat all would be done that
could be; and Gen. Mcclellan winds up his
sketch of difficulties in the way of his move
me1t with calm and full assertion of his own
superior competency as a commander, to de-
ternline the facts in regard to the fitness of
his men to enter upon great campaign in a
hostile country over the aGeneral-in-C Chief in
his office at Washington,
Late in October the advance began. On
the 9th of November the army massed near
Warrcnton, Virginia, ready to act in any di-
rection. Longstreet was in the immediate
front at Culpepper, Jackson, with Hill, near
Chester and Tbornton's Gap, and everything
gave promise of a speedy and decisive open
ing of the campaign
On the night of the 9TH Gen. Mcclellan
was relieved Of the command of the Army of
