Why did the first Emancipation Proclamation disturb Union General George B McClellan?

It was in late September that Union General George B. McClellan received the news of Lincoln's first Emancipation Proclamation along with the president's suspension of habea corpus. This was Lincoln's complete repudiation of McClellan's views of the war. McClellan had demanded earlier from Lincoln that slavery would be left alone. Lincoln wanted emancipation. McClellan also had demanded that there be strict limits on military actions against the rights and property of Confederate civilians. Lincoln disagreed.

What is the difference between emancipation and independence day?

American Independence Day, July 4th, is a celebration of our declaration of independence from Britain, a statement that we intended to be our own nation, rather than continue on as a powerless colony Britain.Emancipation Day refers to when American slaves were freed from bondage-- almost a hundred years later. Juneteenth is still celebrated today, in remembrance of both Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, and of the tremendous delay in the news spreading to some of the slave states. June 19th 1865 marked the date Emancipation was finally enforced in Texas, some 2 1/2 years after Lincoln's 1862 proclamation.
