Mrs. McNell had, in the hours of repose on Saturday night, been picked out from a clay-pit in a brick-yard on the south side of Main street, in the Eastern District--the guard, with unpardonable lack of courtesy to the sex, mistaking her at first for a hog, but attempting to rouse her with the exclamation--"Sue" and a touch of his foot, he was made aware that it was a rational and reflective being, by being desired to "go to h--," and offered certain humorous advice respecting his conduct in that region, so well described by Milton and Dante. The guard, beginning to suspect that it was a lady, and not a porker, who addressed him, assisted her to rise, and conveyed her to a place very similar in some respects to that whither she had just before wished to send him Mrs. McNell, at the request of the A

es by their desperate charges with the bayonet upon the thick array of the rebel legions. McClellan guesses right. The Yankees are sore upon this subject — very sore. From the beginning of this war they have never made a single charge of the bayonet, nor have they ever stood before one of the many charges that have been made upon them long enough for the weapons to cross. They invariably run before their adversary gets within thirty yards of them. The correspondent of the London Times, Russell, was unlucky enough to State in one of his letters that they neither made nor attempted a single charge during the whole day at Manassas, and the contemptuous comments with which his statement was accompanied brought down a shower of abuse upon his head. It did more than that. It caused his exclusion from the army of McClellan, who had no notion of allowing a shrewd foreigner to be a witness to his defeats in the field and his victories on paper, thereby circumscribing the limits within w

they all asseverate the direct reverse. They say that our men repeatedly charged, and that in no instance did the Yankees stand long enough to receive the shock. McClellan's statement, on his official dispatch with regard to a charge made upon Early's brigade at Williamsburg, was so notoriously false that General Early felt himself constrained to give it the lie direct, under his own hand, in the newspapers. His statements about Yankee charges at Chickahominy are given the lie just as direcGeneral Early felt himself constrained to give it the lie direct, under his own hand, in the newspapers. His statements about Yankee charges at Chickahominy are given the lie just as direct by every General on the field. But it is not wonderful. A man who can descend to lie as he did about that battle in other respects, will descend to anything. McClellan evidently wishes to stimulate his men to the bayonet trial. He has tried whiskey, and it failed. He is now trying to make them believe that they did things which they never did, in the hope that they may try to do the same thing again.

f the conflict. This statement agrees with all we have heard from other quarters. We have examined many persons — officers and men — with regard to the matter, and they all say the Yankees made no bayonet charge, either at Williamsburg or at Chickahominy. Indeed, they all asseverate the direct reverse. They say that our men repeatedly charged, and that in no instance did the Yankees stand long enough to receive the shock. McClellan's statement, on his official dispatch with regard to a charge made upon Early's brigade at Williamsburg, was so notoriously false that General Early felt himself constrained to give it the lie direct, under his own hand, in the newspapers.
