But the Republican Congress also gives ITS
testimony. On the 18th day ofJuly Mr.. Ed
wards (Rep.) Of New Hampshire, offered tie
following resolution in the House Of Repre-
sentatiyes, and it was unanimously adopted;
RESOLVED, That the thanks Of this House be
presented to Major General George B. McClel-
Ian and the officers of his command, for the
series of brilliant and decisive victories which
. By their skill and bravery they have achieved
over rebels and traitors in arms on the battle
fields Of Western Virginia.
On the 9th Of May, 1862, after the victories
Of Yorktown, Williamsburg and West Point,
Owen Lovejoy, the most ultra radical in the
House Of Representatives offered the follow
ing resolutions, which was unanimously
adopted:
BesolUed, Thatit is with feelings of devout
gratitude to Almighty God that the House Of
Representatives, from time to time, hears Of
the triumphs Of the Union army in the great
struggle for the supremacy Of the Constitution
and the integrity of the Union.
Rsi0lUea, That we receive with profound
satisfaction intelligence Of the recent victories
achived BY the armies of the Potomac, associ-
ated from their localities with those &C the
Revolution, and that the sincere thanks of
this House are hereby rendered to Major Gen.
George B. Mcclellan for the display Of those
high military qualities which secure impor-
tant results with but little sacrifice OF human
life.
Let Democrats bear this testimony in mind,
and when efforts are made to belittle General
McClellan's great services to the State, let
this significant testimony Mr. Lincoln, Gen.
Haueck, and the Republican Congress, be
produced.
