The Intelligencer, reviewing Gen. Halleck’s report, says of the allegation of Gen. H. that if the Army of the Potomac kad arrived a few days earlier to the support of Pope, the Rebel army could haye been easily defeated and de- stroyed: «“Wonld it not have been jnst as reasonabl> toargue thatif the army of Gen. McClellaa had been permitted to remain on the James River uenii! it could be reinforced, the country ‘would have been spared the inevitable hazards which co nearly proved fatal to the security of Washington, and whi-h actnally led to the in- vasion of the loyal States? en. Halleck’s plan, it is easy to see, was liable to derange- ment, not only by the actnal «delays of others, but also by his own possible miscatculations as te the time reqnired for the removal of ninety thousand men, with heayy siege trains and militery stores. Indeed, what seemed to hin *delars’ may haye been in fact simple but ac- cidental and nnavoidabie defects in his compu- tatio: « That noblome was attached to Gen. MeCiel- isn fer the delay that aded the juneion of the two armirs in the presence of a wary t powerful enemy, would seem to Le su flicie: proved by his selection tu conduct the d Bhized remnants of both commands ag:ins' esemy who had broken into Maryliad. Wi what degree of skill he conducted that move- Ment we shall not undertake to say, but wa ebverye that it receives no praise at the hands of Gen. Halleck.” “ (Gen. Halleck refrains from citing al] the ‘m+ morable occasions’ on which the insurzent Generals have outmarched’ our commanders, ‘Sut perhape the most remarkable instance of ali th *T his own obeervation while in com- mard cf the Department of the Micsissippi. The rapid ‘advance’ of Keanregard, surprising & port ot onr army at Pittsburg Landing, and his Eclipse-like ‘retreat’ from Corinth, afer ovr victorious end grratly-superior forces had been maneuvering in his immediate pres- ence for fifty-odd days, will serve as suitable dutstrations to confirm the justice of the praise whiet Gen. Halleck bestows on the superior Mobility of the Retel armirs, beth in «adyan- ing” and -retreating.” The Reprivican seems 80 tickled with the idea of getfing notoriety, that it plumes iteclf ama- zicgly over the kicks and buffrts it receives at ail hands for its non-on-to-Richmoud,-going- into-winter-quarters wrinkle.

Pope bas written a letter explanatory of the fol- lowing paragraph in a dispateh of his to Gen. Halleck: “ Banks" corps is very weak, numlering not much more than five thousand men, and is much demoralized.” Gen. Pope says that his only m after the eevere battles they had passed throu zh, especially the severe on’ Cedar Mountain, @.d after Gens. Banks, Angur, Geary and Cur- TOU, had been so inj d as to be unfit for duty, the command was ina measure without offi cers, and the broken condition in which their heroic gallantry had left them, demanded that they should have rest: which would have been given them, but it was not possible to» a man from the front.
