GEN BUTLER OK JEFF DAVIS PR0cLlNA-
TIoN.-A Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Gazette tells this story:
General Butler has tod frienis here the
course which he should have pursued with
reference to the proclamation of JEFF Davis
againt him had it reached New Orleans while
he was still III command. lie would have
sent rebel General and several other officers
then in his hands to Ship Island, with orders
that upon receipt Of authentic information By
the officer in command there. that hair Of
of Buffers head or any OF his officers had
been touched. these rebel prisoners should all
be hung at once. And adds Butler, jeff
Davis knows ME well enough to believe that
what | promised should perform. He
knows that assachuSetts man who dared
TO vote sixty-four times for him at the Charles
ton convention would dare to do anything"

FTh- copperhead journals are de-
nouncing Gen Rosecrans for the patriotic
sentiments he uttered in his recent letter t.
the Ohio assembly, notwithstanding he ell
tered the army as an Ohio democrat; but We
notice that they never denounce jeff Davis
Republican.

Scott vs. MCCLELLAN.-The letters of
Gen Scott which We give on first page show
how much too long the government dallied
with military INSTRUMENTATION, fearing the
effect it would have upon the Union cause.
If the government had exercised more
strict discipline among the officers of the
army from the outset the cause would not
have suffered as it has. The most ardent
admirer of Mcclellan cannot find anything
to admire in the course he pursued as shown
by the letters above referred to.

We were told both before and after
the election, by the Republican press,
that if Mr.. Vallandigham was elected
Governor it would encourage the Con-
federates, and if defeated, they would
express their great regret of it. We
knew the interests Of the rebels would
be forwarded by a Republican victory,
which would unite the South as one
man against the Federal Government.
Our views have proven true Read
the article in another column from the

entail Confederate organ, and the es-
pccial champion of the Davis Admin
istration. 1t openly expresses its
pleasure at Vallaudigham' defeat and

not this article from the Richmond
Enquirer sound very much like lead

nal or Cincinnati Gazette about the

ganization extended in every branch
of business, and its favorites became
the monopolists of every species of
merchandise, from sending immense
quantities of groceries and merchan-
die beyond our trade lines, to selling
newspapers in the army. Many Grip
pied soldiers who had for months been
earning an honest pittance in the
camp by buying Il few newspapers in
the city, and retailing them in the
army, had their bundles seized and de-
stroyed by the army police, which ar
rogated to itself the exclusive right
to vend newspapers to some sixty or
seventy thousand solliers. That this
newspaper monopoly was good thing
may be inferred when We state, on the
authority Of a gentleman who was
sending newspapers to the front, that
the profits of the monopolist ranged
from one hundred to one hundred and
fifty dollars per day. Thus few doz-
en- Of disabled soldiers were denied
the privilege of employing their lei,
sure hours in selling newspapers, in
order that two or three monopolists
might pocket about one thousand dol
lars month clear profits.
The United States Marshal had an
incessant fight for months with the Ar
my Police, which claimed the right to
seize, libel, adjudicate and confscate
whatever property their secret inqui-
sition might decide to be rebel props
erty.' The Louisville Journal, whose
senior editor was largely engaged IN
shipping and selling goods at the front,
as well as interested in corn contracts,
as might naturally have been expected,
took up the case Of the so-caled Col,
onel Truesdail, and pronounced it all
right; put with this exception the
Chief Of the Army Police Jared no
better than he did at the hands of Gen.
Grant, in whose department he for
merly figured. tits deeply to be re.
GREETED that such an organization ever
was established in the Army of the
Cumberland, and We doubt not that
Gen. Grant will promptly abolish it.
We doubt not that some good men
were employed in it to give it an up,
pcarance Of fairness, but they were not
suffered togo "behiud the scenes" As
an organization it was utterly odious
and dctestable, and loyal men in this
department will rejoice to hear of its
abolition. We will add, IN this con.
nection, that a mixed commission OF
military men and civilians was appoin-
ted some time ago, by the War De.
partment, to give the Army Police or,
ganization in this department thor,
ough investigation. What has become
of it? Has it began its labor? If il
has not, it is high time it had. We
will state also that secret agent of thu
Treasury Department who came out
here and by accident obtained an in,
sight into tie operations of the Police
said it was a very dangerous and for
midable organization, and ought to be
destroyed, but it was so strongly pro-
tected its overthrow would be difficult
work.
