To the Hon. Judge Chambers, Eastern Shore
Maryland.
DEAR SIR have just heard of some OF
the proceedings in the convention of the
Protestant Episcopal Church in the Unit
ed States, at its late triennial meeting in
New York, and among them of the pro-
duction for its consideration of a tlippant,
vulgar, and protane letter, addressed to
the Hon. Carrot Davis, of Kentucky, al
legged to have been written by me | am
told, too, that the member who produced
it pledged himself for the authenticity and
genuineness, and commended his cOmpe-
tency as witness on the ground of the
very friendly relations which he averred
had always existed between him and my
self, and the intimacy of his acquaintance
with my style and chirography.
What friendly purpose he intended TO
serve by this extraordinary venture ave
not heard. But desire through you, Sir,
whom | have long known as an honorable
associate in that venerable body, and as a
gentleman, albeit not a clergyman nor yet
doctor of divinity, to say that the letter
vouched for is fabrication throughout. /
have never written line to Mr.. Garrel
Davis on that or any other subject. re-
main, very respectfully, your obedient SER
want.

Causes of the War.

The country has been treated to a great
variety of theories about the "causes" Of
this warts rationale, philosophy. &c.
&c. The same men have assigned differ
ent reasons at different times. At first it
was laid to the ambition Of Southern poll
ticians. Since then Slavery has been
taxed with it. All along large part
perhaps q majority Of the people-havo
considered Abolitionism to be at the bot
tom Of It. Major General Butler, with
the new light upon the subject by which
he processes to have been illuminated at
New Orleans, is decidedly of opinion that
this war is reooh Of the ricA oqoinst The
poor, or what is about equivalent to that
propOsition-that few score thousand of
shareholders set it or foot to ensave twelve
millions Of whites and blacks poorer than
themselves. Mr.. OnEsrgs A. BRowNsoN
has two widely differing opinions about the
cause. His opinion as civilian, or citi
zen, or Republican candidate FOR Congress
in New Jersey District, is, that slavery is
the cause. But, as a Catholic and {. lee
turer on Catholicism, he presents ano-
Their view Of "what's the matter as will
be seen from the following extract from q
letter delivered by him before q Catholic
association in Chicago last week:
The present war is nothing more or less
than collapse of the American sytem, not
as it was understood by its founders, but
as it has since been developed and APP
piled. People may talk of abolitionism or
of slavery, for or against, and attribute
the present national calamity to the exist
ence of slaves in the South or anti-slavery
in the North, to Southern fire-eaters or
Northern fanatics, but these were only
pretexts Of action. The fault lay in the
system of government adopted by both
sections, by all parties, and under that
system there was no hope for North or
South. The ideal of our fathers was high, I
but in cur hands it has fallen below any
that the world has yet seen. The great
error, the true cause has been the separa-
ting of religion from civilization, and as
suming that civilization was able to take
care of itself without revelation and the
grace of God.
The lecturer then aimed to show that
reunion Of ruptured parties and interests
could only be brought about when this
principle was recognized, and attributed
the present struggle to the displeasure of
the Almighty. They had, as a nation, at
tempted to walk alone, and had failed;
they could not expect to travel unless
leaning upon the church as staff. He
then said, that, inasmuch as the Catholic
Church was the only true and original
form of Christianity, so it was the only
one upon which the Divine blessing could
rest, and recognition of it alone was to
be regarded as restoring the favor of the
Almighty, and securing national prosperity
and individual relations

by the roadside artillery "stalled in
the mud-ammunition trains mired by
the way. Horses and mules drop
ped down dead, exhausted with the
efforts to move their lOOds through the
hideous medium. $50 dead animals,
many of them buried in the liquid muck,
were counted in the course of a morning 3
ride. And the muddle was still further
increased by the bad arrangements, or
rather the failure to execute the arrange
ments that had been made. 1t was de-
signed that Franklin's column should ad-
vance by one road and Hooker's by an
other. But by mistake, q portion of the
left grand division debouched into the
road assigned to the centre, and cutting
in between two divisions of one of Hook
ers corps, threw everything into confu-
sion. In consequence, the woods and
roads have for the past two days been
filed with stragglers, though very many
of them were tuoOfuetD.y stragglers, and
were evidently honestly seeking to rejoin
their regiments.
1t was now no longer question Of how
to go on; if it was not q question how to
get back. That night, Thursday the
three days cooked rations which the men
had taken in their haversacks when start
ing, would give out and the other six
days provisions where in the supply trains,
which stuck fast in the mud miles behind
Indeed, the rations had already, in many
cases, given out, and boxes of hard crack
ers were brought up on mules or carried
on mems shoulders. An order from Gen.
Burnside to withdraw the forces to their
old position, was momentarily expected.
It did not come, but instead, another Or
der stating that Gen. Burnside had "good
reasons" for commanding the troops to
hold their present position till to-day.
But whether we should move forward or
backward, the first requisite obviously was
to put the roads in such condition as
would admit of movement at all. Accord
ingly, all the available force was at once
set to work corduroying "rotten " roads
and putting them into some kind of prac-
teal condition
Early this morning the army was ordered
back to its old camping ground, and about
noon the infantry began to pass by these
headquarters. The lads trudged along tired
enough, but jolly withal, and disposed to
be quite facetious over the "mud cam
paign, whose odd experiences will, doubt
less, long form the theme of conversation
around many campfire.
Thus ends an enterprise which had eve
ry human promise of success, bat which
has been banked and brought to naught by
causes which mortal ken could neither
have foreseen nor prevented. The fatal
part played by the elements needs no COM
ment. Whether this drawback might not
have been overcome by vigorous effort and
hearty cooperation on the part of the mil
itary leaders, is a question much mooted
here. There are those who assert that,
had it not been for the apathy of some in
high places of military command, we
might still have carried the day. This
question, however, is one more fit to be
brought to another bar than that of these
columns,

RAGEDY IN PITTSBURGH.
4 GIRL KILLS HER BETRAYER.
From the Pittsburg Post Jan. q.

From the Pittsburg Post Jan. "a.
On Friday afternoon, about 4 O'Clock,
our community was shocked and startled
by the announcement that bloody TRACE
dy (of character rarely occurring here)
had been enacted in the very heart of the
city. On repairing to the scene of the Oc-
currence we gathered the following facts :
Elizabeth Beatty, girl nineteen years OF
age, daughter of Samuel Beatty, laborer
residing on the alley running from Bedford
to Cliff streets, Seventh Ward, appeared
before Alderman Mcbride, on the 9th of
December last, and made an information
for fornication and bastardy against one
John Mccormick, a teamster in the en-
ploy of Messrs. G. G. Hussey e. Co., of the
Cliff Mine Copper Works, in which vicini-
ty he resided. The information sets forth
that, ON or about the Goth of October last.
the defendant, under promise of marriage
and "by other unlawful ways and means, "
enticed her to her ruin, by reason of which
she expected to give birth to child, which
was liable to become charge on the
county. The deposition was duly affirmed
and warrant was issued for the arrest
of Mccormick, but the officer who had
the matter in charge did not find him.
Yesterday, Miss Beatty called at the Office
and informed the Alderman where Nc
Cormick could be found. An order was
Immediately sent out, and returned with
Mccormick and his team. On being in
formed of the nature of the charge against
him, he asked if he could give bail, and,
receiving an affirmative answer, requested
the the Alderman to send for Henry Johns,
at the works, to enter security for him.
A constable was sent for Henry Johns, but
he met him near the office and the two
entered together. Mr.. Johns entered bail
for Mr.. Mccormick in the sum of $500,
and so it was thought the matter ended
for the time.
Miss Beatty had remained in the office
during the whole time, and, when the Sc
curity had been entered, Alderman Nc
Bride turned to her and asked, care you
satisfied with the bail ?" She replied,
eyes! suppose he is good!" McCor-
mick turned and said, "You do not want
us any longer ?" The magistrate answer
ed, 'Not at present" Mccormick and
Johns then started out of the office in COM
pany with a third person, friend OF NC
Carmick's, who had been present. They
had scarcely reached the platform at the
head of the short fight of steps leading
down to Cherry alley, (by which the office
is entered), when shot and cry were
heard, and moment after Miss Beatty
came into the Office, pistol in her hand,
saying, "He drove me to it, land l shot
him. Squire, l give myself up" She
had followed them out, and, just as
Mccormick stepped down upon the first
step, drew her pistol and fred at him from
behind. Some state that she first asked
deceased, "Will You marry me ?" and on
being answered in the negative, fred. The

From the Richmond Enquirer. 10th.
A CARD.-On Tuesday last, in the House
of Representatives, Mr. H. S. FOOte, of
Tennessee introduced resolution oflnqui-
ry as prelude to the charge that |, an
officer of the Bureau of Subsistence, had
made an official contract with a firm in
Richmond-I being a member of said firm
and that such contract was corrupt and
fraudulent. Mr. Foote expressed his con-
viction of the truth of the charge, upon
"good and sufficient testimony" (Mr. F.
being a lawyer, though he said he did ''not
criminate any one that is, he did not
criminate the man he charged with crime.
have waited until day has elapsed to
give Mr.. Foote an opportunity to correct
his remarks. As he has not done so, l
have a right to presume their correctness
An issue of characters as well as facts
has thus been rendered by Mr.. Foote. I
accept it, and he shall not escape from it.
I mean to make him try it before the in
vestigating committee. On the trial one
or the other of us must be proved a base
man-myself as guilty of corruption, or
himself as having falsely, and without no.
tice, aspersed the character Of an absent
and innocent gentleman.
