\ aGsnsrdl B. F. Bruce, Syfde8ae:
my Dear Sir: have received your in
terestibR letter; OF the 10Th instant, for
which iyou have many thanks. In reply, l
send yon the following remarks.
"In>H . letter 70 friend in New York l
said, Il am more than delighted with the
views Won entertain in regard 70 the elec.
ton Of Major General Mcclellan to the
/ Presideney of the. United States. You
have said truthfully that his election
means the trailing OF the flag of the Union
I'm the dust before its enemies-the entire
subserviency Of the North TO the South, :
| and you might hsve added, the surrender
of the United States to Jefferson Davis and
his government. u.
al have not since seen anything from
Major General Mcclellan or from the mem
bers of the Chicago Convention to change
my opinion as then expressed. On the
contrary, have seen and heard much
through various channels 70 confirm IT, and
satisfy myself, beyond doubt, that Il IL the
Intention of the leaders of the Chicago
Convention, If they sneeeed in electiDg
Mcclellan, to, place the United States at
the mercy of Jefferson Davis. This may
be discovered in the Northern as we'll rs
the Southern rebel newspapers-in the Of
ficial journals of Napoleon the Third, and
more especially iu those of the arlstocracy
of England, our old and never ceasing
enemy, who dread a reunion of the states,
a. made Known through their organ, the
London zFmes. For in such case, they
might see q power that would oVerturn
their aristocratie government. To prevent
this. md TO erable the rebel g0VeFument

tinF hnsa furnished IT. with ile1ae suns

lcomnence,- steamers to run the block
ade on the southern coast, TO sup
ply the rebel army with cannon small
arms, powder, shot and shell, as we'll as
with every other article necessary 70 make
them efficient IN the field. Indeed the ar.
istocracy of England are prepared to do
anything and everything that viii prevent
| the reunion of the states. Hence we hnd
them fayoring the election of Major Gen.
eral Mcclellan to the Presidency of the
United States,uo doubt with the assurance
of the rebel agents ct the court Of st.
james, that If he succeeds in being elected
he viii be compelled by the leaders Of the
| Chicago convention to acknowledge the
independence Of the rebel government, and
4 this the leaders do not hesitate 10 assert.
In the event of Major General MeClellan's
election, EngIaud expects to be gratified
with what she most desires, the dissolution
i of the. Union, the release from the retrtbu-
tiou anticipated for violating. her promised
neutrality, the getting rid of her great
commercial rival and the destruction Of the
opIy free government on the face of the
Eglobe. aI,f5s,H =

of the undergraduates Of the rebel stAtes,
which the leaders of the Chicago Conyen.
