Qected this it was his own fault, il the compa'
ny rations were properly divided. The boat
arrived at New York at IL A, M. on Friday.
Owing to the fact that the fourteenth had just
preceded them at the park barracks, hot
breakfast could not be obtained, but the men
had plenty of cold bread, ham, and tongue,
which was served out twice, and more than
any army ration to each man. In the confn-
sion which may be expected when lOoO men
are furnished together, some men may not
have had as much as they would ike Out
enough was served out to the captains ana Or
derlies, for ALL which is all that quarterinas'
ter can do On Saturday the men had an
annie breakfast at Philadelphia, lunch IN the
cars. bread and meat, on the way TO Baltimore,
and at Baltimore an ample allowance OF meat
and five hundred loaves of bread for supper
When the paper alluded to states that they had
nothing to eat but bread and meat, 1t is true,
but neither soldiers nor officers on a three days
Journey, are likely to get anything better.
The meat is cold ham and tongue, as nice as
any man in Worcester provides for his family.
No rations Of the regiment were left behind
any where. The army ration is more than
man can usually eat, and the third battalion
aud infantry, we believe, were able to save
something from theirs. There is no regiment
in the service in which the quartermaster's
department is better managed or in which
there is less complaint than the fifteenth. The
truth of these statements can be attested by
the gentlemen now in the city, who accompa'
MED the regiment on its Journey.

Governor and Commander-in- Chic
GOV, ANDREWS APPOINTMENTS.

The other day the Boston Herald, moved by
very distressing spasm of old partisan pas"
sion, fell upon Gov. Andrew and proposed to
organize party for his overthrow. 1t charged
the governor with prescribing democrats in his
military appointments, and after various ut
terances in this strain, the Herald finally sta
ted the accusation as follows -
"ABoLITIoNIsM AT THE STATE HOUSE,
Since the publication of articles in the Herald,
showing up the abolition tendency of Gov.
Andrew in his appointments, we have been
overwhelmed with communications bearing
testimony to the truth of our statements. No
man, ho,oever aceH qualified can obtain tdcor from
Governor AndreU the military ddndies about
him, proUiding he is democrat"
There never was charge against any man
more unfounded and unjust than this. The
Boston Journal replied to 1T by appealing to
the appointments themselves. Writing before
it was actually known who would be Colonel
of the twenty. first regiment, The journal said
Cup to the present time, colonies have been
appointed by the governor to fifteen of the
sixteen three years regiments, and we give
below the names, designations and politics of
each:

JUSTICE TO OUR VoLUNTEERs.--The pub
lie owe it to the brave men who have engaged
in the defence Of the country not to give too
easy credence to the thousand rumors, set
afoat by interested or disappointed parties,
impeaching the honor and fidelity of officers or
soldiers absent on service. Rumors of this
character have been aioat in regard to the
quartermaster's department of the fifteenth
regiment, which have found currency in the
columns of weekly journal in this county,
and been copied by daily paper in this city,
to the effect that the regiment was not sutfi
ciently provided with food on its journey to
Washington, and that its rations were left be-
hind We learn from letters received from Of
hcers OF the regiment that these statements
are wholly incorrect. Nothing was left be.
hind that was not intended to be. The duty
of the quartermaster is to deliver the rations
for each company to the orderly sergeant on
requisition Of the captains. The duty o, az.
tributing them among the men, or taking caro-
that the men do not waste them, rests with the
company officers. On Thursday morning the
day the regiment started, days rationa were

WHAT RUSSELL SAW.

A correspondent of the Providence journal,
communicating to that paper his own knowl-
edge of the facts, states positively that VIM.
H. RUSSELL who writes letters to the London
Times, did not see the battle of Bull Run. He
says =
"Mr. Russell, who occupies so large space
in the London Times in giving description of
what he saw at the repulse of Bull Run,
was at no time within three miles OF the bat
tie field, and was at no time within sight or
musket shot of the enemy. He entered Cen
treville after the writer OF this, and left before
him. At the period OF the hardest fighting he
was eating his lunch with brother John
Bull, near Gen. Miles headquarters. When
the officer arrived at Centrevllle, announcing
the apparent success of the federal forces, tot
which he gives correct description it was
four o'clock. The retreat commenced in Cen
treville at half past four. During this half
hour he went about one mile down the War
renton road, and there met the teams return.
ing, with some struggling soldiers and one re-
serve regiment, which were not in the fight.
He did not wait 10 see the man portion of the
army, which did not reach Centreville until
about two hours after has flight. His excuse
for hurrving to Washington on account of
mailing his letter that night, is inconsistent
with his statement that lie went to bed, and
that the mail did not leave until four O'clock
the next morning"
We know from other sources, that this Mr..
Russell fled towards Washington in advance
of nearly the whole panic-stricken crowd
Therefore, if he had written only what he
saw, his letter would have given no account of
the battle, or of the actual retreat of the ar
my. He saw nothing but the camp at Cen.
treville, and the scared civilians and teamsters
whose fight he led He evidently drew on
his imagination and the stories of scared strag.
glsfs, for much that he wrote. The assertion
that he saw" it all is falsehood
