Generals Meade and Sickles' Controversy

A letter hitherto unpublished, written by
Gen. George G. Meade, commander of the
Army OF the Potomac, in relation to the
battle at Gettysburg, is most important
chapter to the controversy concerning Gen
eral Sickles' conduct in the battle of Gettys'
burg that has been carried on by General
Lafayette McLnws, General Sickles and
Colonel Biddle, of Meades staff. General
Meade's letter holds General Sickles respon
sble for crippling the Army of the Potomac;
gives the entirely new evidence OF General
Ewell, Confederate, in support of the Wis
dom of the sometimes misunderstood ripe
Clay Greek order, and explains why General
Butterfeld, General Hooker's chief of stall,
happened 10 be retained temporarily BY
General Meade. General Meade wrote the
letter under date of Philadelphia, March 1t,
1870, to Private G. G. Benedict, OF Burling-
ton, VT, in answer to inquiries. The Gen
eral in his letter says:

streets advice to Lee was sound military
sense. 1t was the step feared Lee would
take, and to meet which, and be prepared for
which, was the object of my instructions to
ButteIfield, which he has so mlsrepresented.
Now, let me tell you another historical fact:
Lieutenant General Ewell, in conversation
held with me shortly after the war, asked
what would have been the effect if at 4
D. m. on the 1st be had occupied Culp's
Hill and established batteries on it. told
him that in my judgment, in the then condi-
ton of the Eleventh and First Corps, with
their morale affected by their withdrawal to
Cemetery Ridge with the loss of over half
their number in killed, wounded and missing
(of the six thousand prisoners we lost on the
field, nearly all came from these corps on
the first day. his occupation of Culp's Hill,
with batteries commanding the whole OF
Cemetery Ridge, would have produced the
evacuation of that ridge, and the withdraw
al of the troops there by the Baltimore pike
and Tennellytown and Emmittsburg roads.
He then informed me that at p. N. on the
1st, he had his corps twenty thousand
strong) iu column of attack aud was on the
point of moving on Culp's Hill, which he saw
was unoccupied and commanded Gene
terry Ridge, when he received al
order from General Lee directing him TO
assume the defensive and not to advance !;

to be permitted to advance with his re-
serves, but the reply was reiteration of tic

IT IS UNDERSTOOD that the chief reason OF
the removal of Fred. Douglass, after he had
held lucrative Office for eighteen months
under democratic administration, was the
fact that in public speech he made last
week he spoke condescendingly of the Presi-
dent, called him "Grover," and said he was
in "bad company" And all this, it must be
remembered, though he had previously said
the President "had invited him not once,
twice or thrice, but many times to his grand
receptions al the White House" <.t.''

FRED. DOUGLASS says he doesn't see how
any colored man can side with the demo
cratic party. When tho republicans were
in power he used to advise strong measures
to the few who do. His successor says the
President wants to destroy the color line,
and appointed him as means to that end.
Fred. Douglass has lived South, and knows

not lived South can know. The appoint

line to the extent of one vote.
