9aSlge Kelley In the Halter.

We published the other day a scaling
letter from Gen. Naglce exposing the IN
trigues Of the Washington cabal against
Gen Mcclellan, called out by a speech Of
Judge Kelley, Lincoln Congressman from
Pennsylvania. Judge Kelley. has replied
The whole controversy hinges on the charge
Of Judge Kelley that Mcclellan had no plan
until late in March, 1862, and the Judge
thus thrusts his head into halter and kicks
the block from under his feet:
81 further said, in substance. that this
fact, following the incident of the stove pine
at Munson's Hill and the wooden guns at
Manassas, March 10TH had exhausted even
the Presidents stock Of patience: but that
he had, in the kindness Of his heart. deter
mined to give Gen. Mcclellan chance to
redeem himself from utter ridicule. and had
given him ten days to propose plausible
plan OF a campaign. 1t was tier that | SAID
he had no plan, and that when several Of
the promised ten days had passed he was
still without plan'
Now il the reader will turn to the official
documents he will find the following evi-
dence of Abraham Lincoln dated over a
month before the time when Judge kelley
says Gen. Mcclellan had no plan

THE REBEL GENERAL LoSGsTREET.-This
officer, one Of the very bravest and most skilful
and thoroughly schooled and experienced in
the rebel army, has been the most unfortunate
Of any general on either side participating in so
many battles. lie was first driven to the right
about by General Mcdowell at the first Bull
run, and but for Stonewall Jackson and
Joe Johnston his military career would
then have probably ended. He figured as
. secondary character In the bloody
Peninsula campaign Of 1862, and signaly
failed in bis notable North Carolina expedi-
ton Of the same year. He fought terribly
but disastrously to his own troops at Antietam
and Gettysburg; be did nothing very remarka-
BILE at Fredericksburg; his corps was cut to
pieces by General Thomas at Chickamauga, and
be was bafIled and thoroughly beaten at all
points by General Burnside at Knoxville.
From bis last repulse near the old battle
ground OF Charlottesville he is reported to
have been borne OF mortally wounded. At all
events, he is very remarkable example OF o
great soldier Of many battles and many defeats,
and without single victory that can be called
his own.
