Tbs Philsssaphis Press Of Saturday IN On ar
tiele entitled Loyal Generals repuhllshss
the, list and adds the names Of t~lre more Gen-
erals. ,-,t -
Now without giving the names of those pub
llshed, or expressing any opinion about the
propriety Of their declaring their general indi-
vidual political views, II they desire 70 do SO,
We submit that itisa gIaring act Of Injustice
for . Newspaper to make such an annouace
ment about . few men, leaving the many Gem
erals who are In active service In the field, and
to whose minds such thing as an announce.
ment Of principles would not otherwise occur,
In total ignorance Of such publication.
The names Of over thiry-two generals occur
to US, while wrllng, neither Of whom are in
the list, hut $il<r of whom we believe to be
as loyal as any one Of the editors of tho Army
and Mary Gazette or Philadelphia Prea. They
arc as follows. Generals Blair, McPherson,
Candy, Pieasarton, Fitzpatrick, Patrick, Strong
(since, dscsased), Corcoran, Peck, stonsmsp,
Sykes, slocum, Hancock, Park, Dwight, Frank
lin, Augur, stone, Andrews, weitzel, Devens,
Marstop, Thomas, Ripley, Meredith, Foster,
Rousseau, Ricketts,, Crawford, Prince, and the
two Shermans. ,4s,... srIsT a1sr -
We dosic 70 see the man or the men, who
wfli come forward and assert, that these, each
and all, are mot loyal and gallant mea. OF
course there are many others whose names, for
the moment, We have forgotten but those we
have named arc down among the prescribed
because they have not left their post In the
field to dabble in the dirty pool Of. politics, for
we consider the article alluded to az having no
other object than political one, and the weapon
1t employs IL = popular one; but who viii not
say IL has bseu unfairly wisidsda' - 3 ~,
Besides, We do NOT believe that all the
Generals whose names are in the list, as In
dorsing the paragraph quoted, authorized any
such publication, but, on tho contrary, we be-
lleve that It was done by somc contemplate
meddler and croaker who had q special axe to
grind. ,,....
