Gen. Mcl'lellan.
There was wanting but one thinir to
crown fieri ttr-flr-llan'a military filnr. I
This he has supplied in his letter en- i
&rsing the candidate of the Peace De- !
mucracy for Governor of Pennsylvania. I
We print it in full, that we may have the !
prospective Democratic candidate for
President on thejecord:
t. N(.E, N. J., Oct. 12.
Hon. Chat. J. Biddle:
Dear Sir: My attention has been
I called to an article in the Philadelphia
, Press, asserting that I had written to the
managers of the Democratic meeting at
Allentown, disapproving the objects of
, the meeting, and that if I voted or spoke,
I it would be in favor of Governor Curtin.
: I am informed that similar assertions
have been made throughout the State.
It has-been my earnest endeavor, hereto
fore, to avoid participation in party poli
: tics, and I am determined to adhere to
this course: but it is obvious that I can
: not longer maintain silence under such
misrepresentations. I therefore request
j you to deny that I have written any such
letter, or entertain any such views as
: these attributed to me in the Philadel
' phia Press, and I desire to state clearly
and distinctly, that having some few days
ago had a full conversation with Judge
Woodward, I find that our views agree;
and I regard his election as Governor of
Pennsylvania called for by the interests
of the nation.
I understand Judge Woodward to be
in favor of the prosecution of the war
with all the means at the command of
the loyal States until the military power
i of the rebellion is destroyed. I under
stand him to be of the opinion that while
; the war is urged with all possible decis
ion and en.jrgy, the policy directing it
: should be iu consonance with the princi
: pies of humanity and civilization, work
ing no injury to private rights and prop
erty not deraantied by military necessity
and recognized by military law among
civilized nations; and, finally, I under
stand him to agree with me in the opin
ion that the sole great objects of this war
are the restoration of the unity of the
Nation, the preservation of the Constitu
tion, and the supremacy of the laws of
the country.
Believing that our opinions entirely
agree upon these points, I would, were it
in my power, give to Judge Woodward
my voice and my vote.
I am, respectful iy, yours,
Geo. B. McClellan.
TIu- JpMilt !n Indiana.
: The absence of any general ticket,
which could have been made the means
j of testing accurately the sentiment of
' this State, leaves us no better ivay of
, estimating our recent victory, or whether
we have won any, than taking the gains
: already reported, and applying them to
the whole State. Though an uncertain,
this is not an unreasonable mode, as we
i have returns from at least thirty coun
i ties, and it is not at all likely that one
i third of all scattered through the rest,
i would be affected by a Union feeling
; which the rest escaped. ' So far we have
j no gain of less than 100 reported, and in
many cases, as in this county, Shelby,
Noble, Vigo and Tippecanoe, it rises
from 300 to 600. We measure ourgains,
! of course, against the vote last year,
when we were beaten. An average will
be about 200, and a gain of 200 in each
county makes a difference of abont 20,
j 000." The Democratic majorityl.astyear
I was a little less than 10,000, consequent"
!y our majority this year is not far from
theirs last. This is rough guessing, we
j admit, but the uniformity of the gains
j no single county we have yet heard of
i showing the old Democratic majority
; corresponding with Union gains of larger
; extent in other States where the canvass
was closer and the interests depending
j greater, makes it a sort of guessing that
will do to rest a conviction upon that
treason in Indiana has got as hard a
blow as it has in Pennsylvania.
We cannot, in glancing at the results
cf the late elections, fail to recall as the
most startling feature, the tremendous
magnitude of the majorities. The Cop
perheads have not simply been beaten,
they have been smashed, powdered, and
the dust trampled on. Kentucky never
; pave such a majority as last August,
i She piled up 50,000 on Wicklifle's head,
! and left barely the tail of the serpent vis
ible under the heap. Maine followed
, with 20,000, double and treble what used
j to be considered large majorities. Then
i Vermont added hers, alwavs so large
that it could not well be larger without
the vote bad been unanimous. Then
California came with 20,000, Iowa with
lo,000, Indiana with at least 10,000, anil
no State ticket to bring out the vote.
No wonder Governor Morton said iu his !
speech on Wednesday that such unan- j
imity at such a period of thu war, was
the most astonishing exhibition of firm- 1
ness, tenacity and heroism ever seen in
the history of the world. Whatever else ,
may happen, the rebels are not to succeed
through the power of the Copperheads.
So much is proved. Indianapolis Jour- j
nal, loth.
The Sullivan Democrat confesses
that the result of the election in Ohio is
a great disappointment to it We quote
its exact language. It will swear, some
day, that it never said it:
The telegraphic reports from Ohio in
dicate the election ot IJrough by a ma
jority of 75,000. We confess this is a
disappointment to us. We had hoped
the people of Ohio would assert their
manhood and love of liberty, by rebuking
the despotic act of the Administration in
exiling -Mr. Vallandigham for no offense
against law. The unscrupulous dema
gogues at the head of affairs at Wash
ington have a government patronage
five times greater than any administra
tion ever before enjoy ;d; and there can
be no doubt it was lavishly used to de
feat the Democratic party.
We do not despair, however, of the
American people ultimately getting
their eyes open to their danger. We
think another year of war, and heavy
taxation, and plundering of the treasury,
and high prices, and infractions of the
Coustitution, and denial of individual
rights, aud acts of despotism generally,
will effectually cure them of a disno.sit.irm
to repose further confidence in the iaco-
i: l t .

EV oVILLE, IND., MONDAY, OCTOBER 19
From Our Own Correspondent.
Army Correspondence.
Army of the Cumberland. 1 I
Chattanooga. Tenn., Oct S, '63. j j
Editor Journal: One year ago to-1
day, the 42d Indiana, commanded by
Col. Jones, was led into the fight at j
! Chaplain Hills. Many, very many,
charges have taken place since that time,
and many a brave soldier has found his
! last resting place.
The rebels are still in oar immediate
j front, and occasionally they send a few-
3110113 lnt0 our camP
shells into our camp, while ever and
anon a shot is fired from our
work;?.
T,lere 13 not nor bas ntbeen, any picket
firinS lor several days, and though the
lines are ver-v cose together, still each
Party keeP8 very quiet Those in cam)
are veT grateful for &is, as picket firing
is a great annoyance, and, except when
an enemy is advancing, of but little im
portance. Chattanooga has been quite a place in
its day bas doubtless had a population
of, I should judge, three thousand; but
its citizens have deserted it, aud but few
are left to tell the tale of Bragg's last
loug look upon this, the key that unlocks
East Tennessee and North Georgia to
Uncle Samuel.
Bragg left but little behind him, which
is conclusive evidence to my mind that
he didn't intend to return.
Some rebels came upon a train of ours
the other day, and as the guard was very
light, it behooved the teamsters to take
care of themselves as best they could.
Some ran, and some trembled and
feared, but the most philosophical of all
was a teamster of the 42d Ind., who, when
he saw the rebs coming, and his fellow
teamsters " skedaddling, " cried out,
" If I have to die, I will die by my
mules, " a strong animal affection truly,
but not stronger affection than that
which a woman bore for her potato
patch of which I heard an officer speak:
While marching iu the mountains, a
certain regiment of this army encamped !
near a potato patch, belonging to a se- !
sesh. The regiment being short of
M grub " the boys thought to " go for "
the potatoes; and so they did, but seat-j
ed in the middle of the patch of pota
toes, they found a guard in the person of j
a huge '' fair one, " who asserted that :
she was the lawful owner, and that she '
did not care for General Rosecrans,
General Hill. General Bragg, or General
anybody else, that she would sit in that
jjatch just as she tu till she froze fast
to the earth, before she would give up
the " taters. "
Dr. Adams, of Petersburg, formerly,
but now of the loth Indiana, is a phi-
lanthtopist Shortly after our troops
occupied this place, a ladv made her ap
pearance at the picket line, but could
not be admitted. She would not go
away, but remained for some time, when
the Lieutenant of the guard discovered
that she was ill. He accordingly sent
for Dr. Adani3, who promptly made his
appearance, and in a shor'.time the wo
man was the mother of a fine boy.
The Doctor sent for an imbalance, aud
the lady was conveyed inside our Ki.es.
properly cared for, and allowed to sei
ner husband next morning, who was a
rebel soldier, and in jail here. He took
the oath and went on his way North
with his wife the wife blessing Dr
Adams.
Before this reaches you. this army will I
have been re-organized. How, I can't 1
exactly tell, but the ten Divisions will
probably be consolidated into six, and
some changes will probably be made in
commanders, but of that I can't advise
you.
The whole armv praises Gen. Geo. H.
Thomas, and looks upon him as one of ,
the greatest Generals of the ae. The
Fourteenth Army Corps, which he com
mands, is not alone in his praise, but all
accord to him the highest honor, Rod
praise not only his talent, but eulogise
him for personal bravery in the highest
degree.
Perhaps your readers may wonder why
I do not attempt to describe the fight.
Well, there is the best reason in the
world. I wasn't there. 1 had been to
old Hoosier to see the " Butternuts,"
and the boys got up the fight before I got
back; but enough' of generalities have
already been written and published any
how. I picked up an old copy of the Chatta
nooga Rebel the other day, which con
tained a speech of the renowned Jeff.
Davis to the troops at Murfreesboro,
made nearly a vear ao;o. Speaking ot i
the duration of the-war, Jeff, said: "The
duration of the war is only a question
oj time, which was, of course, received
with thunders of applause.
Seven deserters from the rebel lines
came in this morning a Sergeant and
s;x men, all of the 5th Ky. Confed
erate. When it is quiet, we are sure to
get deserters either from Tennessee or
Kentucky troops A fe ti days since a !
Lieutenant of the rebel army came into !
our lines, deserting the enemy. They can
have a Very fair chance to do so now,
as our lines are so near together that at j
night there is but little danger.
We had a rain a few days since that
swelled the Tennessee river over our
bridges, but we are all right now, aud
have everything in good working order. ;
.Next luesday, the election comes r n
aud the Ohio soldiers will speak
for themse ves. The people at home
will then have a chance to know how
the boys feel, and what they will say.
If the Indiana soldiers had a vote, I
would feel a pride in recording the vote.
They would tell a story that would make
the oldest "Butternut" in the woods
burst wide open.

Huadq'rs Dep't of the Cumberland,
Chattanooga, Oct. 2, 1863.
ORDERS NO. 3.
Army of the Cumberland:
You have made a grand and success
ful campaign; you have driven the rebels ;
from Middle Tennessee. You crossed a !
great mountain range, placed yourselves
on the banks of a broad river, crossed it
in the face of a powerful, opposing army,
and crossed the other great mountain
ranges at the only practicable passes,
some forty miles between extremes. You
concentrated in the face of superior
numbers; fought the combined armies of
Bragg, which you drove from Shelbyville
to Tullahoma, of Johnston's army from
Mississippi, and the old and tried vete
rans of Longscreet's corps, and for two
days held them at bay, giving them blow
tor mow, wun ueavy interest. hen
the day closed, you held the field, from
which you withdrew, in the facs of over
powering numbers, to occupy the point
for which you set out Chattanooga.
Yju have accomplished toe great work
of the campaign; you hold the key of
Last Tennessee, of Northern Georgia
and of the enemy's mines of coal and
nitre.
Let these achievements console you
for the regret you experience that arriv
als of fresh hostile troops forbade your
remaining on the field to renew the bat
tle; for the right of burying your gallant
dead, and caring for your brave com
panions who lav wounded on the field.
The losses you have sustained, though
j heavy, are slight, considering the odds
against vou. and the stake vou have
won.
You hold in your hands the substan
tial fruits of a victory, and deserve, and '
will receive the honor and plaudits of a
grateful nation, which asks nothing of 1
even those who have been fighting us, j
but obedience to the Constitution and
laws established for our own common
benefit.
The General commanding earnestly ;
begs every officer and soldier of this ar- !
my to unite with him in thanking AU j
mighty God for His favors to us. He i
presents his hearty thanks and congrat- !
ulations to all the officers and soldiers of :
and perseverance, and the undaunted
courage displayed by those who fought
with such unflinching resolution.
Neither the history of the war, nor
probably the annals of any battle, furnish
a loftier example of obstinate bravery
and enduring resistance to superior num
bers when troops, having exhausted
their ammunition, resorted to the bayo
nets, many, times, to hold their position
against such odds as did our left and
centre, comprising troops from all the
corps, on the afternoon of the 20th of
September, at the battle of Chicamauga.

Major-General Commanding.
Fight near Mcni phisThe 66th Indi
ana Engaged.
A special dispatch to the Cincinnati
; Commercial, dated Memphis, Oct. 12th,
gives the following account of a fight
I last Saturday near Memphis, in which a
j Spartan band of Union soldiers were vie
, torious. Our forces fought from oehind
1 a stockade, and, therefore, did not lose
near as many as the rebels must have
; done, who were in an open field. The
13th Regulars lost 9 killed and 27
wounded, and 7 missing. The 60th In
diana's loss was about the same.
" Saturday morning a train left this
place for Corinth, at the regular hour,
passing through all right. A couple of
hours later a special train, having on
board (!en. Sherman and staff, and 300
of the 13th Regulars, started, and on
coming to Collierville, eighteen miles
from here, was fired into with artillery
and musketry. Two cannon balls went
through the locomotive and tender, emp
tying the water and breaking the lever
used for reversing. the engine. The train
was stopped, and the cars evacuated for
the protection of the stockade at the sta
tion. Previously, the pickets of Colonel
Anthony, of the 66th Indiana, who holds
Collierville, had been driven in. Gen.
Sherman had scarcely time to form his
men ana the 600 Indiana boys, before j
the force was attacked by Chalmers. His 1
force was composed of seven regiments j
one regiment Arkansas troops, two of
Texan ((Jen. McCullough's men,) and '
balance Mississippians, numbering in all
nearly 3,000. After fighting near five
hours, and after some fine maneuvering
bj the General, the Confederates were
completely routed. At one time tlie
rebels had possession of the train, and
set fire to the beautiful car of General
Webster, which he had loaned to General !
Sherman but it was retaken and the fire !
extinguished. The rebels burned three
trestle-work bridges, but they have been
repaired."
