IFrom the Augusta Standard, Sept. 20, 1851
The Portland Evening Star is conducted with
far more manlness, dignity and honesty, than any
other Republican paper in the State. 1t presents its
views with marked ability and defends them with a
zeal that betoens sincerity, but scorns descend
to personal abuse, SANDER and villcaton of political
opponents. Its course in this respect is in marked
contrast with that of the Press, published in the
same city.

MCCLELLAN ANALYZED-
party

The Sacramento Union, commenting
upon the present attitude Of poor Lit
tie Mac, who has been brought over
from Europe by his purchaser, Belmont,
to play the stool pigeon for Seymour
and Blair, gives US the following excel
lent analysis of that renowned Jack
of Spades" Says that paper:
As for McClellan's agency in this bust
ness, of course we cannot blame him. Poor
fellow, he is Just as much the blindfold tool
of traitors now as when in the Winter OF
lS6l-2, he tremulously held the check line
over go, 900 men behind ramparts around
Washington while Sc 900 rebels at Manas-
sas were magnitied to him through the spec
tacles of rebe cOnfrercs into an oyerwhelm-
ing host. Just as much their plaything now
as when before Yorktown he gathered lOO,-
600 splendid soldiers only to waste month
and thousands of lives in digging out Magru-
der's 5000; or when before Williamsburg
he reported rebel opposing army greater
than his own ready to dispute every men,
aud the next morning found the field de-
serted and the road clear to the gates OF
Richmond, where the traitor Government
was packing up to leave; or when at Gdlne 5
Mill he mag mined Lees army of eighty thou
sand into - Two hundred thousand, and kept
retreatiug before it every time his ll5,00O
soldiers whipped it, till at Harrisons Land
ing be reported his own victorious army
deinoralized and reduced 10 oo,Ooo, when
Lincoln came down and found $4,000 ready
for duty, and Phil. kearney swearing that
the man VINO could retreat from Malvern
Hill was either a coward or traitor. Let
the mantle OF charity fall closely as 1t may
over Mcclellan > faults-allow that he was
t.u.id, inexperienced, young-stil there Is

no plausible explanation of his failures, ex-

no plausible explanation of his failures, ex-
cept that, with rebel spies at his ears, with
loyal men thrust from him, he was the
merest tool in the hands of traitors. Moth
ing else can explain the audacity with which
the rebel army was divided before his face,
or the persistence with which he continually
reported an overwhelming superiority of
force against him. Nor is there now any
chance to deny that he was the pet and
the tool of the Copperhead politicians, who
wanted the war waged in constitutional
manner" until waiting and expense had
tired out the patience and resources of the
people. Those politicians were determined
that the Republican party should not make
peace-should not conquer the rebels.
Mcclellan was confesSedy in full sympathy
with the SeymourS, Woods and Nallandlg-
hams The rebels always admired his gen
eralship, for they never feared it. They
now admire his style of craftsmanship, for
it leads to the same results. This man has
come back to stir up those personal jealous
les which were AWAY the bane OF the Poto-
mac Army which kept Porter from enab-
ling Pope to overwhelm jackson at Manas-
sas, as he would have done if Porter had
done his duty and which Mcclellan him
self evinced when he cody advised Lincoln
to g let Pope get out of his scrape himself,
refus ing to send him ammunition because
he dIdn know the CAMPER OF MS dItII-
lery," and provisions because Pope did not
send back trains to set them. We defy any
one to read Diapers recently published vol
nme in which he describes these campaigns
Of McCle Han and Pope, without being con-
WINGED that Mcclellan was then as now, IN
conscious coalition with COpperheads and
traitors against the earnest, loyal Pres ident
and people who were straining every nerve
to put down the rebellion. It's no wonder
that when the marvellous patience of Lin
coin at last gave way, and the people APP
proved his act in Kidding US of this General
whom our enemies liked so we'll, Mcclellan
should have skunk off TO Europe, there to
hide his shame. That he shows his face
now is only another evidence that he, like
other adjutants of the lost cause, recog-
nizes its reviving vitality, and in its success
hopes to retrieve position which he should
never expect from those whom Grant, Sher-
man, Sheridan and Thomas have taught
what generalship is, and how to make peace
with traitors.

ard locomotive for the Central Pacific Rail-
road.
CHICAGO, October 9.-Washinston spe-
Gals say President Johnson expressed the
opinion to-day that he considered the cleo
ton OF Grant certain.
RIP Walker has published letter stat
ing that there has been an annual increase

and pensions.

Reverdy Johnson has signed naturaliza-
ton treaty with Great Britain.
ITHACA. n. Y, October 9.-Four hundred

METHOD IN HIS MADNEss.-A day or
two ago there was crazy man confined
in our county Jail. An amiable but
curious Democrat went in to see him.
What are you doing here?" asked
the Dem. " Waiting to be sent to
Stockton" answered the lunatic.
&" What are yo1 going there for? in
quired our " constitutional friend
"To get new set of brains," was the
insane mans response. What are
you going to do with a new set of
brains 2" was the next interrogatory
" To give me- sense enough to vote the
Black Republican ticket responded
the honest crazy man and thereupon
the Democrat went away sorrowing,
and wondering if there were not a
method in the poor fellows madness.

THE GREAT ELECTIONS OF TUESDAY
NEXT

On day after tomorrow the people OF
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa and
Nebraska will participate in the cleo
ton of State officers. The fight in
Pennsylvania centers, chiefly, upon the
opposing candidates for Auditor. The
Union nominee for that place is Maj.
Gen. John F. Hartranft, one of the
bravest and most popular soldiers that
Pennsylvania gave to the war. Hart
ranft went into the service as Colonel
of the 5lst Penn. Vols. and during the
greater part Of his and his regiment
term of service was attached to the 2nd
Division of the 9th (Burnsides Corps.
By his marked efficiency and perfect
bravery be rose to the rank of Major
General of Volunteers. His popularity
was remarkable while in the army
and it is so, doubtless, now. He is a
man after the Grant pattern, modest,
recticeat-and fond of horseaesh-
which he is a rare judge. He went
into the war Democrat. We predict
his election by at least Is, 600 majority.
Ohio, Indiana aud Iowa help to illu
inmate the western sky with that Won
derful enthusiasm for Grant and Colfax
which surpasses even the days of Tip
and Ty." d" The hero born of woman
will crush the serpent with his heel -
in those States and Wednesday S tel
egrams will apprise Us of such VIC
tory in the Valley of the Ohio as will
convince blind and besotted Copper
headsm of the utter hopelessuess of
its cause in November.
Nebraska is in doubt. The Tribune
Almanac misled US into the undertand-
ing that the election for State officers
was to be held there on the Oh inst |
4 corrected statement informs US that
it will be held on the 18th. We suppose
the chances are about even between the |
two parties. Republicans tell US that
the political complexion ofthe State is
probably, badly affected by the influx
of bushwhackers from the Missouri
border On the other hand, Democrats
express misgivings, because, as they
say, the Union Pacific Railroad, which
runs through there will be likely to
help the Union party. Previous cleo
tons, although favorable to the Union
party, have been gained by our friends
by but small majorities and We set
down Nebraska as /" doubtful
We believe that when Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana and Iowa shall have
spoken, the death knell of Copperhead-
ism will have been sounded. We hope
for, and believe in, a complete and
glorious triumph in each and all those
States on the day after tomorrow for,
we cannot doubt that the great voice of
loyalty - has sounded forth the trum
pet which shall never call retreat"

PL,NCKETTE.-The Nevada Gazette of
October 9TH relates the following: A party
Of gentlemen were assembled at Crawford's
book store day or two ago, experimenting
with Planchette. Having satisfied them
selves that it "worked" in the hands of one
of their number, they mentally propounded
series of questions Of a spiritual and
financial character, all of which we're an
swered satisfactorily. One of the party being
a politician, very naturally made the inquiry
as to which of the Presidential candidates
would be elected, and also which would re-
ceive the electoral vote of California. The
name of I" Grant was written in unmiStaE-
able characters. He then mentally inquired
as to the political sentiments eff those pres
ent. Planchette promptly answering, and
placing such individual with the party to
which he belonged. AT this moment young
man entered the store who. it is asserted.
has recently changed his political status and
sold out to Seymour and Blair. One Of the
party mentally asked what he was: After
moments hesitation, Planchette made the
following letters: odd fool. This
ended the experiments, no one present any
