The Causes of the War.

Gen. Mcclellan delivered the oration at
the dedication Of the Battle Monument. at
West Point, recently. Speaking OF the
war he said
Certain States, or rather portion Of the
inhabitants of certain States, feared. or
proiessed to fear, that injury would result
to their rights end property from the ele.
walton OF a particular party to power. AL.
though the Constitution and the sctnal
condition Of the Government poyided them
with a peaceable remedy and protection
against the aPprehendcd evil they prepared
to seek security in the destruction Of the
Government which could protect them.
and IN the use of force against national
troops holding a national fortress. To et
face the insult offered TO our flag: to save
ourselves from the fate of the divided Re.
publlcs OF lta y and South America: to
preserve our Government from destruction;
TO enforce lis just power and laws; to main.
tain our very existence as a nation, these
were the causes which compelled lis IN
draw the sword. Rebellion against Gov.
ernment like ours, which contains within
itself the means of self adjustment and \
pacific remedy for evils, should never be
confounded with revolution against des.
potic power, which refuses redress ofwropgs.
Such rebellion cannot be justified unop
ethical grounds, and the only alternatives
for our choice are its suppression or the
destruction Of or nationality"
In this speech, which was not made
for political effect, General Mcclellan saws
plainly aud unequivocally that the South
had no cause for commencing the rebellion.
and warns all not to confound it with a re-.
volt for actual wrongs What now be.

that Lincoln commenced this war, and
