' BY OrOUGK PvM'CLEt.US, Lste Major-General Caimuandipg the A-rniiea, The copyright M low taken out jn the name of tho CHneral's wtdow,, unci tlie publishers expect that upwards of 100,000 oopii will l) iold. The in troductory chajiter of the .volume, was not found until some time afer the author's di-ath. in it General Mo Clellun thus sums up' his reasons for never publicly resenting the criticisms which were heaped upon him in his later years: ''1 have thus fir abstained from any reply to the various criticisms and mis representations of which 1 have been tho Hubpct, and shall probably preserve the Hanp attitude during the remainder of my life, Certainly, up to within a brief pHriofl, party feoling has run so high that the pathway for tho truth has been well-ngh closed, and too many have preferred to accept blindly whatever was most agreeable to their prejudices, rather than to examine facta Moreover, during the civil war I never sought rank nor command. Whatever of that nature came to mo caniu by force of circumstances and with no effort of my own. In tho per formances of the duties thus thrown upon me, t can, with a clear conscience, say that I never thought of myself or of my own interests', but that I steadily pursued tne course which commenuea ilsulf to me as best serving the true interests of my country, and of the gal lant troops whom I had the ionor to command. I have therefore been, abb to maintain a calm front under abuse, and, while far from claiming immunt ty from rrror have remained satisfied with the conviction that, after my death nt least, my countrymen will recognize the fact that I loyally sorved my country in its darkest hour, and that others, who during their, lifetime have been more favored than myself, would probably have dono no letter under the circumstances .which sur rounded me when, twice at least, I saved the capital, once created and once reorganized a great army. . (. After telling how he entered the service as Major-General of volunteers in Ohioj General McOllan jnf on to describe the "apathy of tho Washing ton authorities," tlin campaign, in Western Virginia and his arrival at the capital.

Tho next chapter is p ronaidy tlie most important op in the entire hook, and it will doubtless liive. rise to much acrimonious discussion in civil and mill tary circles. 1 w. following suoinlary, which hruds the chapter, Ives an ex cellent idea of its contents; , , Conspiracy ot politicians ngninst tho army; the af, to be, prolonged for po. htical reasons; n halt million lives suo riliced; Edwin M SUintoti his violence a;aj!it the administration and personal abup of Mr. Lincoln; dr.

It iij easier for a horse to walk a n.pethnn a man, after he knows how, for he has more legs to balanco himself with. Animals are not credited with half the intelligence t,hey possess. Blondin is of a mild, and tractable disposition.
