GRAIN FREIGHTS ON THE UP.
PER MHSSISSIPPI.
A Card from the Railroad Manage rs

Editors of the Chicago Tribune: ft8t.
At meeting of the managers of the Rail-
road and Steamboat Lines, between the North.
west and Milwaukee and Chicago held at the
Sherman House, in the City of Chicago. April
II, 1864: attention was called to the fact that
various erroneous statements and reports in
the matter of Grain Rates from points on the
Mississippi River to Lake Michigan ports had
been, printed in the city papers; and it was
deemed eXpedient TO state, for the information
Of the public that the Grain Rates adopted ct
the Convention held February 4, 1864, are the
same as those IN, force during the months OF
September. October and November, 1868.
The Committee on Resolutions reported the
following, which were adopted: 1a

Gen. Burnside's Opinion.

1t is the fashion to eulogise this person.
Perhaps, therefore, they may be interest
ed in this little Renaissance of a fact
which we quoted at the time of its occur
renee, and which is now reproduced by
the historian, J. s. O ABBOT in his cur
rent History fthe War:
Gen. Burnside, at public meeting in
New York, paid the following tribute to
his Mcclellan. worth:
l have known Gen. Mcclellan most init
mately. as students together, as soldiers in the
field, as private citizens For years we have
lived in the Same family, and know him as
well as know any human bel. e on the face of
the earth. and know that no more honest,
conscientious man EXISTS than General McClel.
Ian. know that nn feeling of ambition be-
yOnd that of god and the success of our cause
ever enters his breast. All that he does is with
a single eye, single view to the success of the
government, and the breaking down of this re-
bellion. know that nothing under the sun
will ever induce that man to swerve from
what he knows to be his duty. He is an hon
est, christian like and conscientious man; and
let me add one hing, that he has the soundest
head, and the clearest military perception OF
any man in the United States.

and is the only plan upon which sure and sat

Government enforce further acquisitions upon

The Navy Department is in receipt Of
advices from Admiral PORTER, from Alex
andria, La, of March 20, enclosing some
rebel correspondence, which was captured
BY the gunboat Signal day or two before,
while the rebel mail carrier was crossing
the river, giving complete history of the
rebel torpedoes, the machine that blew up
the Housatonio and the manner in which
it was done. Admiral PoRrER says, they
have just appointed a Torpedo Corps, for
the purpose of blowing up property of all
kinds. Among other devilish inventions
is torpedo resembling lump of coal, to
be placed in coal piles and among the coal
put on board vessels. The names of the
parties are all mentioned in the correspon-
dence, and used a photograph Of one OF
them" Among the captured correspon-
dence is letter from 7. E. CoURrENEY to
Col. Il. E. CLARK, of the 9TH Missouri
cavalry. dated Richmond, January 10th,
in which, speaking of bis inventions, he
says: 1850
