sF That Gen Mcclellan cherished
feelings Of personal respect and liking
fnr the rebel leaders, has been well un-.
derstood before now. Here is an apt
piece of testimony to that effect from
Col. Mctcalf, of Kentucky, who said
recently at public meeting: iif7n99

straightened himself up quickly and
said: Il do assure you, sir, that you
are mistaken. JEFF. Davis is perfect
gentleman, and win not do anything
unbecoming gentleman. We'll, ibra
