Whether it is true or not that Mcclellan is re-

has made up his mind TO serve his country far
to resign his commission. He held on to it
until he saw that he defeated, and that New
Jersey had chosen Copperhead Legislature,
and it is now pretty certain that he will be the
successor of Ten Eyck United States Senator.
whose term expires March t. 1868. In the event
of Mcclellan being sent to the Senate your cor

in the place soon to be vacated by John p. Hale,
