ANOTHER ABOLITION MISUNDERSTANDING

ANOTHER ABOLITION NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Not content with seeking to make the President
appear silly, In their efforts to create the false
impression that he has become a convert to the
proprietY Of "Jayhawking" in the conduct Of the
war, as some Of the abolitionists are now doing
through the Tribxns and other similar journals,
they have also tried their hand in putting Gen.
Mcclellan in the same false attitude before the
public. Thus, they managed to cheat even the
Philadelphia Press into republishing as true, ION

was to be seen the pale thin, fever worn face of
Gen. Mcclellan. This Is the first time since he
reached Washington that "LIttle Mac" has al
lowed himself any such relaxation from ofdcial
duties, and his face Is so little familiar to the
public, or Is SO much changed by his recent ILL
