y'hc E'Iibule.s Malice.

! Major General Mcclellan, on the occasion
Of being visited few days since by the
entire 95th regiment Pennsylvania Volun.
! teers, made few remarks in substance
| thanking them for three things one in the
past, one in the present, and one in the
future. In the past for the superior disci,
plinc and military skill displayed on every
occasion wh9n he had been permitted TO
witness then, on the field; in the present
for the smiling confidence which shone in
the faces which he was able to see IN the
dim light, and in the future for the assur,
ancc that in them he could rely to help him,
and, if necessary, to die with him. Can
not? At this thousand voices answered,
"Ies, yes, erery time" He then said he
did not think this last would be necessary
that he hoped to subduc the rebellion with
out reaorting to such sacrifice.
The Chicago Tribune's correspondent
gave synopsis Of the above, and distorted
its meaning by emitting the words land, if
necessary, to die with him." thus:
Genera! Mcclellan ended a speech in
response to sercnade, by assuring tn,
soldiers that he relied on them to help him,
to fight for him. He added that he did
not think this las; would be necessary as he
hoped to subdue the rebellion without re-
sorting TO such sacrifice
The Tribune editors paraded this para.
graph with editorial comments of a ma
licious nature, bitterly attacking Mcclellan,
for deemng it unnecessary to fight during
this rebellion. The attack was base and
unprinciplcd, and shows to what extent the
Tribune will go, in venting its spite upon a
worthy officer, whose greatest fault seems
to be accomplishing his ends by strategy,
and outstanding the lives Of his troops
History will award justice to the humanity
of a Commanding General even if cotem-
porancous press deny it to him.

No attentive reader OF the Chicago IRE
bune can fail to have seen an earnest
Effort on its part to reorganizc the Repub-
lican party OF, Wendell Phillips basis.
There is scarce q number Of that jour
nal, since the timc when Mr.. Phillips made
his remarkable speech at Washington,
but what has had something Mandatory
of the man. Its superlatives, have been
exhausted in his praise. Its energies have
been directed to give currency to his sec
tional ideas. Its reputation has been haz
arded to secure him respectable audiences.
No longer ago than Friday it published an
editorial article headed "Wendell Phillips
doing good"
That it does not represent the sentiment
Of a majority of the Republicans Of the
North West we steadfastly believe; but the
persistency with which it labors to throw
the Republican party into the hands of the
Abolitionists, joined to the influence which
it exercises over the Republicans of the
northwest, leads us to the belief that i
will ultimately succeed in its object.
OF Wcndell's tour through the West thu
Washington correspondent Of the N. Y
Times thus writes;
"A prominent gentleman, and a Repub
lican ofiicc-holdcr, who has just returned
from Cincinnati and other Western points
reports general development of an intens
anti-abolition sentiment in all quarters O
the West, since the Wendell Phillips rio
in Cincinnati"
The Tribune says this article is dictate,
by proslavery spirit, and proceeds forth
with to the forty-fith eulogium on the lif
and political philosophy Of Wendell Phil
lips.
The organization Of Phillips part.
will have the effect to cement CONSERVATIVE
republicans and Douglas Democrats in on
organization, which will effectually kce
the other in check. This appears to b
the manner in which the Reorganization {
parties will take place.
The Breckenridge wing of the Democr'
cy will of course be left out in the COLI
but it is hardly strong enough to mer
more than passing notice.

The New Corps OF sappers and Miners.

Simultaneous with the initiation of our
rational difficulties and intcrnccine war has
arisen, like Jonah's gourd in one night,
new organization Of Sappers and Miners,
which, under pretence of loyalty has been
sucking the likelihood ofthe nation, and un-
iermining the foundations of the Repub-
lie. We refer to the Contractors and Off
Gals, from members of the Cabinet to those
of the lower grade Of this class the
Washington correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune thus writes
1.-The frauds and attempted frauds in the
treasury, in one channel and another, come
So fast and from such unexpected quarters,
that one is bewildered in contemplating
them. Yet nobody has been brought to
justice, and nobody seems to think it posi-
bic that anybody should be brought to JUS
tica, 80, those rascally contractors" says
some honest man in the rural DISTRICTS
For every dollar wrongfully taken by a
contractor five have been taken by public
servants"
DetwesA the violent secession admins
tration on one hand, and the rabd corps
Of thieves and pilferers who are making q
''big thing out Of the government on the
other hand, loyalty to the Union bids fai,
TO become an expensive virtue. Ioralist:
tell us it is much easier to do that which
is evil than to do that which is good. How
much more difficult th:n to do right whcl
there is peralty attached to it!
True, the honest patriot cannot for
moment waive his loyalty to the Union
but by so much as the government leaye
patriots to the tender mcrcies of these IA
facious sharks, does it embarrass the tru
men Of the nation. If therefore the Re
publican Administration and its Congress
do not prosecute and punish all Of thes
known swindlers Of the government, with
out impartiality it will fail Of dischargin
its duty to itself and to the nation. I'll
opportunity once lost may never again pre-
sent itself to the Republicans.
Certainly, if no objection be taken on tn
part Of the government to thievng an
plundering, VIC shall insist that no objc,
ton hcnccforth be made to Floyd on Ii
score Of Larceny.
