MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE.-A correspondent
of the jackson (Michigan) Patriot, writing
from Lansing, says: The resolutions (of the
majority recite in their preamble that to put
down the present rebellion " requires the uni
ted efforts of all patriotic and loyal citizens, 3"
and the common citizen might naturally sup-
pose that the resolutions would be so worded
as to have that tendency but instead how
must they be surprised to see the most ultra
partisan platform presented, indorsing not only
all that has been. but all that may be done by
the National Administration, in their 10isdom,
to put down the rebellion. And this savory
dish is tauningly held to the lips of the minor
ty, with the threat, Drink, or be branded
with the eternal infamy of being traitors to
your country! But the minority do not ap
pear to see it in that light, but argue that
those who advocate the violation of constitu-
tional law-of trampling under foot the plain
est and most sacred liberties of the people
are they whom posterity will relentlessly stig
matize with the odous epilhet of traitors"

of DAILY. The friends of Lazarus say that DAILY
struck him three foul blows. Lazarus called
attention TO it, but said it was no matter, as
DAILY was novice. DAILY was badly punished
about the nose and mouth. Lazarus was hardly
scratched. On the up passage to San Fran
cisco three men fell overheard from the San

GEN. McCLELLAN.-A correspondent Of The

says: The announcement by Philadelphia
paper that the President intended to recall
Mcclellan to the command of the army will,
if substantated, so far towards reestablishing
popular confidence in the successful prosecution
of the war. The ovations extended to him
wherever he appears in public prove that, in
spite of his alleged short comiugs, he enjoys a
larger measure of popularity than any other
man now living. In fact he is as popular with
the people as be is with the army, and though
this may be reason with partisan leaders why
he should not be restored to command, yet a
wise craftsmanship would not ignore the force
that be represents for crushing the rebellion.
In no other country in the world would com
mander of Gen. McCleans standing and abl-
ity be driven to inactivity"
