GENERAL WooL.-This veteran officer has
written long letter TO the Union Defence
Committee Of New York, the object of which
Is to show the reason of his being left at home.
dis complaint is fully substantiated by official

aoSoluie refusal OF the War Department 10
have INN employed. at appears that be was
nominated for high command by General
Scott, and his confirmation thwarted bv Sec.
retary Cameron, an officer of the Government
who is fast losing what regard the country
ever did have in him.
He justly complains that while ne has been
compelled TO remain in idleness, civilians of no
military experience have been appointed to
take rank over him. The Department, in ex-
cuse Tor Its conduct has had the effrontery to
give out that in doing so, it has been actuated
by proper regard for the welfare of the Gen
erals health! 1t is to be hoped that the re-
cent disastrous affair at Manassas will have
the effect to change the policy of the Govern.

An interesting incident of Tuesday, which we
omitted mentioning yesterday, was the presenta-
ton of a flag to Capt. Arthur Connor's fine com
pany, the Perritt Guards. The flag, a beautiful
one, made and offered by the ladies, was presented
to the Company at the City Hall. Our gallant and
poetic friend, Walter Fl. Peters, ESQ.,, presented
the flag on behalf Of the ladies, in the following

Our eloquent friend, Judge Price, received the
flag for the company, in one of his most happy and
patriotic addresses He promised for them, that
if they should be so fortunate as to get sight at
the celebrated New York Seventh Regiment they
would not only bring home the beautiful banner
which he then held, but would bear off as trophy
tha oil Df Vauntp1 aia int tha
trial. He said he was proud to look on such gal
liant body of men, who would prove themselves
soldiers in deeds and in honor They would be
foremost in the brgades of the South, and the flag
they now received would be found in the thickest
of the fight they meeting the enemy face to face,
fighting for the honor and rights of the South.
Both speeches were greatly applauded, and the
ladies present as enthusiastic as any, in their
quiet but charming way-waving their kerchiefs
and linging bouquets to Capt. Connor and his men,
After returning to their armory, the Guards gave
three cheers for Miss Caddie Peters, the lady who
was foremost in making and presenting the flag.
