nB- A subscriber has asked us to publish
the letter of the late Gen. Kearney in which, in
amoment of impetuosity- perhaps irritation
he not only spoke very disparagingly of Gen.
Mcclellan but of nearly every general officer
on the Peninsula. We prefer not 10 do so.-
Mcclellan, in a recent serenade speech, has
spoken of him as " the intrepid and dashing
Kearney," and we have no heart to dig up a
single harsh word that he had penned, perhaps
when smarting under some imaginary griev-
ance, against man who treads SO tenderly
upon his ashes. Gen. Mcclellan is acting in
manly way, and shows no disposition to en-
courage dsloyal and mutinous spirit. 1t
would be well If those who claim to be his
special friends would initiate bis example.

sufficient amount OF funds to meet them, and
