General arssehel1s Denial.


The correspondence published in the tel
eeraphio columns shows that Gen. o. NJ
Mitchell Indignantly and smphatically
denies the truth Of the chSpges made
sgainst him BY the Louisville Journal
and which were noticed in this paper The
Journal must now produce specific cha rges
and their proof or stand convicted Of
slander Of the hasest kind. The country
was exceedingly 10th to believe that the
dashing and successful General was guilty
Of any conduct unbecoming sn officer or &
soldier, and win be much gratifed BY his
proupt denial Of the charges made against
him.
As an instance Of Gen. Mitehelrs enter
prise the n. Y. Post states that "with hf-
teen thousand men under his command il
has cost the Government nothing for for
age, and very little comparatively, for pay.
One instance Of his readiness may be re-
lated: He took fort composed chiefly Of
cotton bales; he first made those bales .
Seating bridge, over which he carried ali
his wagons and troops, and he then ship
ped them to Nashville BY railroad, where
be sold them for twenty thousand dollars
in gold. But this is single specimen
only Of the skin and sagacity with which
he has conducted all his operations" He
believes in hurting the rebels, and that is
