The victory, such as it wa Clellan and his colleagues, is exceeding remarkable. An army~femofalized by a succession of fail ures and ® long retreat has suddenty proved at Teast equal, and, we may say, superior. to an army. elated with trinmph: and bent uponia | continuation of its conquests. The forces of | the Confederates have Shffered their first im- | portant check @xaetly st the period when they might have been thought most assured of vic- tory. It was generally expected that the grand | army of the Federals. when it did advance into - Virginia, would require an ascendancy in the | field, if only by foree ofnumbers and superior- | ity of equipment. Nobody would have been surprised to hear some months ago that battles | have been won in Virginia, and that Richmond | had been taken. Similarly we imagined, after the capture of Fort Donelson, that Gen. | Halleck, with his powerful and well-supplied | force, would beat the Confederates on the Mis- | sippi. and, thouzh nobody believed im the con- | st of the Sout pe age eg prepared for military success ofthe North. These calculations, however, were not veri- | fled by events. Up to the beginning of last mth every pitched battle had been more or im favor of the Confederates, and their | final advance from Richmond to the Potomac , represented one continuous victory. They then | cross the Potomac. and carry the war into the | eenemay’s country: here fortune turns against | them, and they retrace their steps, after no in- | in, and. Times. | glorious fighting, with heavy loss on both sides. { It is not that they found the country hostile, or | that they moved too fur frem their supplies; | for they penetrated but a short distance into the Maryland territory; they were not unfa- | vorably received, and their retreat, as the | event shows, was assured. Neither was it | that they caught their enemy at bay, and so found themselves confronted with the strength of despair, for McClellan was the pursuer, | and it was he who of his own choice brought on the first engagement. We cannot describe | the actions reported as anything but fair fizht- | ing on a fair field, and yet the victory, or such semblance of it as was achieved at all, re- mained with the troops who had been repre- | sented, and we doubt not, with perfect truth, as exhansted, dispirited, together infe- rior to their opponent: Tt is worth while herefore, to inqnire in what cirenmstances this sudden turn of for- tanes could have origmated, and we are much meclined to believe that it is traceable to the lib- eration of McClellan from those professional restrictions and disabilities which official or persenal jealousies had previously imposed upon him. At noother point can we discover { auything to 2ecount for the turn of the tide. bat here there was something notable even be- fore the fighting began. McClellan, for the first time, perhaps, in the whole war, rece: power from P RU tO Aet proper: im uy i command. he invested with this ar actly the opposite of what his had led us toexp I ttalions behind the de- mstantly, aud with- marched in pursuit of the ad just«driven the Federal the Potomac. As soon he tights, and is not beat- fight day afwr day, and attack himself With nuation Of this unusual fortune. U m: , if he does not actually drive the Con- federates Across the river in their turn, he sees | them jiberately retire after the handling he given them, and thus gains, in a week's rm Nn. over & strong and trinmphantarmy an advantage which he failed to achieve under | far more favorable conditions in the course of | & whole year. Itis a mystery where he got the troops for | sucha work. The description given of the Fed- eral army 2s it fled from the armies of Lee antl Jackson was too natural to be doubted. and though McClellan’s own corps had had not beeen engaged,, yet that very force had suffered still worse treatinent on the bauks of the James river. It was surely not in the despairing and feyer-stricken army which stole away from | uder that the materials for a new cam- paign could be so promptly found. Washington was tull of troops, no doubt, but they must have been either raw Jevies or yeterans who were none the better for their services, whereas | our ¢wn correspondent reported the condition ofth+ Southern army, before the fight com- men: ®d, as efficient the extreme. All the | best Southern Generals were on the ground, | too, thd we can trace. indeed, in their move- ment} the militury genius which has always | distinguished the South. Probably the best | army, in the best condition which the Confed- | erates have ever arrayed on a field of battle, | stood: last month on the soil of Maryland, and | yet i was worsted byan anny ot which we can | give Ro account, commande a general wh bad ever won a battle ee = = ‘We assume without hesitation that the inva- sion of Maryland has been a failure. Whether it wss a raid for the sake of stores and provi- sions, or an attempt to raise the State against the Wuion, or simply a strategic movement agaipst the army of Washington, the conclusion must be the same. Whatever the Confederates desirfd to do must have left undone, because the Fi army forced them to retire. ‘They met, if not with a superior force, at any Fate with a force which they could not conquer, and ‘o they retreated. e do not place the Jeast faith in the stories of their “demoraliza. tion” or rout. It appears plain that they with. drew from Maryland in excelent order, and | with all their material—perha; with more | than ‘hey took in.

But, i tor all this, it is perfectly clear that the Confed- } erates, Who had marched triumphantly up to the 'Y Waters of the Potomac, then Suffered a reverse, and that their plans or strategy, in so far ss the inyasion of Maryland was concerned, | complely failed. | At that point, some canse or other, and, as ‘we suspect, the definite ascendency of McCiel- | jan, gave the Northerners an advantage. They paid dearly for it, but still they got it, and it will Be interesting im the extreme w see whetr uUey can retain it. or whether it will ptss away from them again.

A correspondent of the Lynchburg Republi- can, writing trom Winchester, states with sor- t lod; At least 20,000 men disgraced themselves by * fleeing from the field in the faceof the enemy, | ané@ what is worse than all, a large portion of them wore brass on the collars of their coats, and straps upon their shoulders. It is said that Gen. Lee intends having every man, who bears the title of an officer, that deserted his post on that trying occasion, brought before a drum-head court martial, and, if possible, have them eashiered, and-placed in the front ranks with a musket. The stragglers, it is said, now number thirty thousand. os NEWS OF OUR ARMY THROUGH REBEL SOURCES. {From the Grenada Appeal, Oct. 9} | Passengers from Memphis yesterday evening report that on Friday and Saturday nights last, front five to eight thousand troops left the city | to reinforce Rosecrans at Gorinth.
