We send out soldiers, and then make

No sooner had he received from Gov Sey.

Gov. Seymour notified this douty General
Sehfnck that unless the order was recnded
he would recall the New York troops sent in.

midst of great tragery | would smile at the
little comedy you seem TO. be playing at
headquarters Eight Arn,y Cofps.' Pray
SIT, tell us where, just now, is lhe Depart
ment Of the Eighth Army Corps? Where il
,CaS, when first entrusted TO your puissani
arm, we well know. The rich eastern val
ley ofthe Potomac was in your command -
That great link Of the East and West owe,
the Alleghenies, the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, was there. But the last we heal
OF you is, that while you we're wisely barri
cading yourselfin the streets OF Baltimore
with tobacco, Lees rebel legions were revel-
ling in your department, and generally, rob
bing every body OF most things valuable to
them. All this is indeed tragic and the more
tragic cause such actors as you ard Milroy
murder the parts you are put there to act;
but what is curious, too, is that, while you
summon to your rescue snch New York city
regiments as the Seventh Ito say nothing O
the numerous others) you deprive six out O
seven Of the soldiers in them of papers they
are In the daily habit OF reading at home and
which inspire them with the patriotism and
the principles that prompt them to rush to
save this department OF yours. You thus
beg and pray for old Line Wings and Demo
craIs to me to your rescue, with heir bay
onets. while you refuse them the mental all
meut and inspiration that brought them to
your proteetionl
You and |, Gen. Schenck, are old acquain
tances. We met first as wings, in the Con
gress Of 1849-50-51. You ran off with
Giddings, representing the Abolition slemen,
on one side, and Burt, of South Carolina,
representing the secession clement, on the
other. and voted against all bills OF paci
fication and settlement, which, while avoid.
ing the then impending civil war, neyerthe
less gave us California tres'-while follow
ed humbly in the wake of the great Clay and
Webster. We differ now only as we differed
then, but that is no reason why you should
call the N, Y. Express 'disloyal,' or shut it
out from the people of Maryland, and N. Y.
regiments now enabling you to be in Mary
land. We meet again together in the next
Congress, sir, and we .wil}tal there all this
over provided them. Y. Seventh and other
Democratic bayoDets are successful in protec
ting YOU from that military genious Of yours
which first developed itself in the railroad
train at Vienna, and which now finds time,
with Lees legions all about you to fight up
on newspapers. But think comprehend
you, A Congression election is approaching
in Maryland, and it is more important to stop
reading in Maryland, and to elect Abolition
members Of Congress there, than it is to pro
tect and defend the department OF the Eighth
Army Corps. Hence you consume that pre-
cous time OF yours in preparing an Ind x
Expurgagorious OF newspapers which should
be sorely consecrated to clearing of Hsgers
town, Fredericksburg, and other places in
Jeur department to say nothing Of Pennsyl.
vania. know net how it is, but SO it is,
that while the Grants and McClellsns Of the
army find all their time employed in delen
ding their flag and country, you and the
Milroys, and the Hascals, and the Burnsides
consume the most OF yours fighting the
newspapersl Sir, the true ambition Of
great General should be. to stop bullets, not
newspaper lslle s! A General that cannot
stand a little paper wadding can never stand
an enemy's battery. .a.f..a,. ......
In closing, permit me to ask, that il. the
N. Y. volunteer regiments froA this city,
nearly nine>ten hsof which are of the Ez

your 'headquarters' in Baltimore, do you in
tend TO suppress on that great route to the
capital, the editors, as we'll as editors news
papers, for / may as we'll assure you, that as
q Wing member of Congress, | intend to
talk over there all the Whig 'disloyalty'
which have been now talking for twenty

the N. \. Erpress-and just as you and
we're disloyal to James K Polk during the
Mexican war, SO am | disloyal now to Abe
