friends were just looking out for a "change of base" a la Solferino, when, luckily for his reason, General Lee, after having captured Harper's Ferry, and flogged McClellan for the eighth time, restored his equanimity by re-crossing the Potomac. We have before us an editorial of the Times, published in the very height of the alarm,hinks the Herald itself will be foremost among these "aiders and abettors, " and accuses that paper of having "invoked and urged the forcible intervention of General McClellan, at the head of the army," to bring the agitators to their senses. The Times adds, significantly enough, "We have not the slightest doubt that there is alrelares all the negroes free, and puts all Yankeedom under martial law. It indicates, however, intense agitation in that quarter of the world. The proclamation of McClellan, forbidding his soldiers even to discuss the President's emancipation proclamation, affords farther proof of a great impending movement, dependent probably upon

lunteers. They are composed of as good stock as we have in Vermont. Frederick Holbrock, Governor of Vermont. The movements of M'Clellan. A letter in the New York Times from Harper's Ferry, the 6th inst, says: That the rebels have withdrawn most of their forces from between Charlestown and Martinsburg is also shown by the result of the reconnaissance to the latter place last week, when no rebel infantry were to be seen. This being the case, we have reason to expect that McClellan will cross the Potomac at Sharpsburg, Dam No. 4, and Williamsport, and occupy Martinsburg, Shepherdstown, and the surrounding country. Should he, however, send a superior force made up largely of cavalry, directly from this place to Charleston, I am confident he could cut off and capture all the forces above who are carrying on their depredations and impressing the citizens. They could not escape through Western Virginia or Maryland. The respectable New York Regiment. A respect

from below Charlestown, but whether their force corresponds with the number of tents, I am unable to say; but it is not believed by many that a large portion of McClellan's army is on the South side of the Potomac, while Baltimore papers of a late date declare that it is. The display of tents on this side of the river may be a rusrmy was falling back. Time has firmly established it that General Lee's campaign in Maryland was a brilliant victory for the Southern cause. If the army of McClellan had not been severely handled by the "rebels," with that army which greatly outnumbered us, he could have felt little hesitancy in marching directly into and occwere thirty thousand stragglers who did not go into Maryland at all, but have come into the ranks since the army recrossed the river; and if, as I have said, General McClellan had not been severely beaten and his army demoralized, it is very natural to suppose he would not have bung so closely to the Maryland shore for the past thr

nd fix on any one or more surgeons the charges you make against them all, the public service would be subserved thereby.--If persons, who are aware of acts of negligence or brutality on the part of surgeons would trouble themselves to establish the fact by proof, the offender would receive the punishment due his crime or error, and become an example and a warning. It is to be doubted whether our armies have suffered more than other armies in like situations. In less than three months McClellan has lost in front of Richmond, principally by disease, soldiers variously estimated by the Yankees at from 100,000 to 170,000 men. He has, by the most favorable accounts to him, lost two thirds of his army. This has occurred, too with unlimited resources and supplies for the care and preservation of health and mastering disease. I merely mention this to show you that disease which afflicts us does not space the enemy. Your letter has been laid before the Surgeon-General for his info
