The Federals talk of annihilating the. rebels, but Lee is- an able general and. though he has suffer ed'aiid is likely to suffer severely, yet we scarce think the Notifiern army capable ofdbingr all» it» proposes.

GREAT BATTLE AT GET'rstUtiG. i Nortbward from Gettysburg run roads to Harrisburg and southward from it ittii three good toads. the principal and best I of which is the. Baltimore lll'll]lllfl‘.~ For any mot'eiricnt towards its own border therefore. the possession of these roads, which run to the. south was necessary lol the Southern army, and these roads once in our possession the position of the South- ci‘n army became critical ; for should Lee utteinpt to retire by any other roads than these, We should have a shorter line to any point on his route, and Could Come qiit-iitiy lnt h.m wherever We might choase; while if be short d fight us without thesi- roads and win, he would win but little; more than a Way to get out. and If tli‘Ci» sively beaten his defeat Would be very ill: anti-oils. tilS~P091TION or MEADtc's AYle- (w'eneral Meade, therefore, began from the first to mass his forces in such a man her as would enable him to hold these roads to the best advantage. South or the toWii tiic country is generally hilly; but there are three hills that deserve par- ticular inentimi, as they form the points on Which our line is drawu-Cenieterv lllll. in the southern edy- of the town; a traine- less hill half it "I‘ll: to the east of Ceme- tery hill, and b‘ugar Loaf hill. directly south of Ceiiietcty bill. and about two miles distant fri m it. Between Cemetery hill and Sugar Loaf hill the country i- open and level. and our men in that posi- tion laci‘d directly west from Cemetery ill‘i’f to the nameless one ; we. faced to the north, and brtWt'Ptt the latter and Sugar Loaf bill you looked to the. St.tllllt°(’l‘.5l.~â€" Utir position was there a somewhat. irre gnfa: triangle, and its peculiarity was lltttl . practically. it had no flanks; for in case of necessity the line could have swept around so that the extreme right and left. would meet on the turnpike. Our line. ft out Cc rnetery bill to the right was on' a rocky ridge, very thickly wooded; and ltei‘e,‘ during the early part of the day. sortie de- fences were constructed under the direc tion of Generals Williams and Gear)‘. of the twelfth corps, winch was posted at this place. 'l‘ltl’tufll many of those who helped to construct these defences thought that "they would, like. connless others. amount to very little when the light came. they proved eventually to be of the utmost value. Gen. Stein vehr occupied Cemetery hill, which commands the town, while. the fight ranged on \Vednesduv. and at the close of that day’s battle the remnants of the first and eleventh corps Were pastedl there- and a little down itie line to the. right and left, and there they remained on ; '.l‘liui-sday at the t'Otiitnencertteut of the secoiitfbattle. On the Open country to our left lay the Second and third corps.l and the filth was so masonic; to fill tbel third litre. The six‘h was put near to the fifth when it came up. FEDERAL curtains. OnaCemeiery hill we had several bat- teries, and. indeed, everypoint that could passibly command a fire was crowned wrth l l l l l a battery ; for. in addition to the guns rev Cornwall. l of llit’. of the rebel guns opposite our right met that. of the rebel gunsoppmite orr‘ left in this errelosctlmpace, and” shells ex~ plodad even) iiheie.;tiitl rouiid‘tshot hustled through the air in every direction. Tm: BA'ri‘LE. At 3-; o'clock, (alert. Meade had reâ€" ceived suflirient assurance to justify hini. iii the belief that the rebels were concen- trating lttei" force! on (iiicleft flank, which all felt to be secure under the. protection of the invincible 3rd corps. One line was immediately strengthened on that flank, G fit. hicklcs' corps bein,r Sent to the sup. port, :iiid several batteries from the reserve bei‘ig brought out and placed in position At. about a o‘clock._p.m , the enemy Sent his first cogitplinlt-nts by a salvo of. at“ tillery. his first shells falling uncomfortably near Geri.

The on tillery altar-k which was made by the cue- my on the left and (:Pllll‘i: was rapidly fol- lowed by the advance of his infantry.â€" ‘l‘l-ie third corps: received the attack with great coolness. The rebels at once made for~our flank; and kept moving heavy coltiiiiiis‘ N that. direction. This iiecessi‘ titteilhsupporf, which was quickly given by the frillr cops. The division of (ii-ii.

'l‘lie armies engaged each other at very short range. out] for three long hours the war of innskeiry was incessant. l have heard iii-ire noise. louder crashes, in Ulllt'l"l_?_itlllitb but I never saw or heard of such desperate tenacious fighting as took place on this flank. The enemy would often bring up suddenly a heavy column of men, and force, our line back, only to be in turn forced back oy our own line of glittering steel. ()ur gallant colitiitiis co- vered themselves with glory orer and over "gain. 'l‘licy l0il.'.bt a superior f'irce iii numbers. 'l‘he dispositions of the enemy were verv rapid. for look where you would on that field a body of reliefs would be ad varicirig. Our dispositions were equally rapid, and the enemy found more than their equal iii such gallant veterans as Sicklirs and Biriiey and lliirnpllreys. Al halfpast six Gen. buckles was ~itruck in the right leg by apiece of shell. and borne front the field. The injury was so great that amputation became necessary. and it was performed successfully â€"-tbe liinb be- ing taken off below the knee The sti'ir;gle grew hotter and hotter.â€" l’lie secOnJ corps was called on for aid, and thouin its own position was stroneg threatened. yet the first division. formerly Gen. l‘lancork's. fling themselves into the fight wrth desperation. and altera long ind obstiralc c'iiill ct the enemy slowly ,amfsitlleiily. gave. way. lit this last charge the brigade ot'tlen Caldwellsecond corps. and that ()fCUlO‘tt‘l Swilzer, front the fifth-ti corps. won great honors.

The rebels m'tde irequent attempts to cat-titre otir artillery. and at one. time had \Vulsoii's battery in their j'iossession. but it Was retach in a furious charge by Biint-y‘s divisron. 'l‘lte battle lasted till fully 8.} o‘clock wli -ii the enemy fell back to his old po.~i- iron, and lett our veterans the ensaiigitiiied victors of that field.

The conclusion which it is una~ voidable but to come to then is l i l l l l inherent l l i pi-rity. ,‘ New bcsoms sweep clean.’ and young republics are invariably ,attended with extraordinary suc- lcess, but like. the. rapid growth of the ephemeral roslt, it is only to do- cay as speedily. ln point of fact it would seem a repiibli :can only ex-i ist under external oppression; for certainly creeps iti.aiid the jealousy of statesmen lost any should arise to higher power than another, combined with the un- limited desrrc of every one. to be uppermost, effectualiy every republic.

Republics are, no doubt, the most consistent form of government, l i sclierrics, it is too Uzopi-tn.
