He was not replaced. Lincoln as Commander in Chief and his "war board" acted as the military's Supreme Command.That is wrongeHe did get replaced by PopeCorrect - He was replaced by Pope, who was not the first choice but the only available choice. Lincoln and his war cabinet retained control over the plans of Pope for a brief time since they were nervous about the general failure of any general they had available to prosecute the war effectively. They finally gave in to bringing McClellan back after Pope proved worse than useless at 2d Manassas. Pope was sent to Minnesota to fight the Souix.

After Antietam (Sept 17, 1862) when McClellan once again believed he needed time for his troops to rest. President Lincoln replaced him (on Nov 7) with General Ambrose Burnside. That was the end of McClellan's service as a Union military leader. As an aside, General Burnside felt uncomfortable replacing George B. McClellan. He had been loyal to him, also, he was not sure the command of the Army of the Potomac would be a fit for his abilities.
