[From the Baltimore Ameri Anl
George B. Mcclellan.

General Mcclellan has spoke in public" at
last, and the time and occasion Of giving utter

all those truly loyal men who had adhered to
him through good and bad report. Here in
Maryland his friends aie numbered By thousands

The Army of Gen. Rosecrans.

The following extract is from letter by q
Lieutenant of the 10th Indiana Regiment, Rose
crans's army, dated Chattanooga Oct. l, received
in Boston
Little did think when wrote you, on the
eve of the 2lst Of September last, that the next
day our dear army Wouli again whtl into the
storm of battle, and with them our own brigade,
but so it was 10 be- That next morning found
our entire army concentrated at this place, an
in position to meet the enemy, but they must
have been too severely punished to advance aud
give battle. We were beaten, but not severely
deteated-neither routed OF demoralized
The minute of the events Of the battle you
will long ere receipt Of this know, but all bear
witness Of the galantry Of the army and the COLI
manding generals.
Gen. Rosecrans rode along through the storm
oil shot aud shell, cool, calm, and collected. OF
TINS reverse to our arms, Of course, the news
papers must soon scatter their opinions far and
wide, and SOW blame with no unsparing hand.
Already see. by some garbled accounts in one
OF the New York papers, a disposition Of the
Northern press to blame Gen. Rosecrans.
cannot conceal my Indignation against those
Knights of the quill who have neither the genius
to understand, much less conceive, a military
movement of the simplest kind-in fact hardly
know the difference between company and
resment-who stand up and crticise, carp at,
find fault with, and blame, Commanding Gene
raj who, on many hard-fought, bloody field,
by the inexorahle testimony of success, has
proved himself great chieftain.
This has been too much the course and policy
Of the Northern press. However this may be in
reference to Gen. Rosecrans, there is one thing
the soldiers of this army, who have so long been
led 10 victory by him, have unbounded conf
dence in his genius and in his star. OF this had
you been here the past few days since the cattle,
you would have been convinced. When he rides
along the lnes-which he does almost every day
you should have heard their loud long cheer
ing, sufficient to prove to you that "0ld Rosey'
is loved and believed in by his men, who have
tried him, and in their estimation not found him
wanting" Moreover We are beleagured in
front. Lookout Mountain and high ridge 10
the south and eastward of the town are in pt l.
session Of the enemy, and they can look down
with longing eyes on the coveted "ChattanoOga,"
still held by ''Northern vaudals."
Our entire army is massed here, and day and
night since the "fa.ng back" have the boys
been at work throwing up earthworks. With
these we are stronger to-day than would corps
of re-enforcements made US the last day of the
battle.
The lcthargy of The enemy in putting off day
after day an assault on our position. eau only be
accounted for by the premise that they suffered
terribly in the battles but day by day hes
dragged along and no attack. We are face to
face, as it were, and any day may bring on an
attack, but rest assured our army will advance
to repel it, with no falling heart to the result"

mand General Mcclellan knew this fact, and
also that he had on all occasions disagreed with
his political friends in their opposition to him
that he refused to believe their imputafOns
against his character as loyal man and a
soldier, and had lost influence with the authori-
ties at Washington on this account.
But independent Of all this, General Mcclellan
knew that the party which hoped to elect Judge
Woodward is as disloyal as the seoessionists Of
Maryland. They rejoice in rebel victories and
mourn over their defeats. Their political ami
mostly to the Administration is so great that
they have lost all love of country aud are ready
to sacrifice their nationality to crush their poll
teal opponents General Mcclellan has broken
his long silence to array himself with these
maleontents, and by SO doing has sunk himself
beyond all redemption in the estimation of all
who are truly loyal. We want no such men in
command of loyal armies, and if the President
was satisfied of the sentiments now expressed by
General Mcclellan, we for the first time in the
columns Of the american, thank him for persis-
tently refusing TO yield to the urgent appeals
made to him for his reinstatement

foundations. two hundred feet long or more, two
stories iu height, and provided with windows
chimneys, and other conveuiences, like common
dwellings on the land. The lower story floor is
nearly even with the waters edge, and open to

hundred or two women ia each of these estab

A CATHOLIC REVIEW OF SLAVERY.

as far as practicable, its perpe iuai exclusion from
tie United.States, Tor reasons OF State, and
chiefly as necessary to the future internal and
external security Of the Republic. We have in
NO Instance taken the ground OF the Abolition
lists, and we have refrained from doing so partly
because we do not wholly agree with them, and
partly in Difference to the passions and pre-
JUDGES of our cOuntrynen. But it is by no
means improper Tor a statesman to reflect that
slavery is sin on the part OF the nation that,
having the power to remove it, authorizes or
tolerates, or connives ut its existence; and that
as nations have no future lie, national sins
are punished in this world
Our indifference to the wrong done by slavery,
both 10 the slave and his master, has already
been visited upon our nation with one of the
most formidable civil wars that history records ;
and it Will not render the great Arbiter OF ma

efforts, and to give success to our arms, if he
sees us resolved to put away the evil of our
doings, TO remember his poor, to raise up the
bowed down, to help the helpless, and to set the
captive free.
The Government has now the right under the
Constitution, TO wipe out from our national es-
culcheon the foul stain Of slavery; and if it re.
