MCCLELLAN And BEAUREGARD.-The Chicago
Tribune has the following concerning these two
generals
=" When Gen. Mcclellan was a resident OF
this city he kept up an active correspondence
with his army associates, and smong them with
Beauregard whom be had known intimely. AT
that time great Gllibustering expedition to
Central America was contemplated by the rest
less spirits in the South, and Beauregard became
one Of the chief conspirators. But be knew that
Walker, then in fall blossom, was not the man
for leader aud lie had not that entire conf
dcnce in himself that would justify his taking
the command. He applied 10 Mcclellan, offer
ing him the most iattering inducements that
could be held out-thc leadership with arbitra-
ry powers, active support throughout the South,
the lions share Of the expected spoil and the
military Dictatorship Of the to-bc conquered
proyiuccs-if be would engage in the enterprise
This offer was summarly rejected but was re
newed again and again with new temptations,
until Mcclellan percmptorily forbade any
further reference to it. In the correspondence.
Beauregard admitted the military superiority Of
Mcclellan and expressed himself thoroughly
satisfied with subordinate position in his com
mand-an estimate of our young General
worth that expected events will abundantly
prove
