COPPERHBAD GENERALS.

Don Carlos Buell. writes letter printed in
our laSt) from Bedford Springs, Pa, giving his
reasons for resgning the emoluments of Major
General in the Union service, after having
drawn pay and allowances for nearly two years
without rendering any shadow of equivalent.
During those years, his country has repeatedly
been ON the brink Of ruin, yet Gen. Buell. re-
fused to put forth hand TO save her. Twice,
meantime, he has been assigned to services but
the duty did not suit him, and he declined it.,
preferring TO draw his 800 or $500 per month,
out of harms way and where no could enjoy
eyey luxury, to roughing it in the field, where
tho bulk of his less favored fellow-soldiers were
living on "hard tack" capriciously furnished,
and Drawing hardship, disease and death, for
$l3 per month, iregularly paid. If ono Of
these had acted substantially as Buell. did, he
would long ago have been shot as a de.erter;
and wo lack admiration for the Military rule
which has permitted Buell. 80 long TO refuse
duty, pocket full pay, and at length osten-
tstiously resign. He should have been igno.
mini0usly kicked out of the service long ago.
Buell. has less excuse for his misdoings than
many of his Copperhead compatriots, in that he
might be q soldier if he would. He is neither a
coward nor an imbecile, but simply Copper.

We publish in another column list OF 40
colored soldiers belonging to the 54th and 55th
Massachusetts regiments, now held as prisoners
in Charleston, s. c., sent US by white officer
of distinction, recently exchanged, and who had
also been confined in Charleston. Or its
authenticity there can be no doubt, and the
friends Of these poor fellows, who have heard
nothing of them for more than year, will be
greatly relieved to know that they are, at least,
still alive. The number Of colored soldiers
taken prisoners in the Department Of the South
during the last year is probably moro than
double the number here reported, but no doubt
their numbers have been thmned by death. II
is not impossible, however, that there may be
other survivors than those whose names are
given in this list imprisoned either in Charles
ton, or somewhere else in South Carolina.
| Il is, at any rate. relief to be
assured that this number have been
held as prisoners Of war, and not summa-
rily shot or sold into Slavery. In their case
the barbarous policy announced by the Rebel
authorities as to be followed in regard to oil
colored men taken in arms has not been adj
hered to; and it is only another proof that our
own Government can, if they will insist upon
justice being done by all our soldiers, compel
the Rebels to grant il. 1t is undoubtedly to
the fear Of retaliation, in case Of their massacre
or enslavcment, that these men owe it that they
are held as prisoners of war. And it is for the
Government to say whether all negro troops
who shall be taken by the Rebels shall be
assured Of that measure Of mercy.

TEE QUOTA OF THIS CITY.

We print elsewhere letter from Supervisor
Blunt to Gen. Fry on tho excessive quota
assigned to this city under the new draft. II
there ia any such disproportion as is claimed, il
cannot DO doubted that due correction and
reduction will be made. We certainly hope
so; Eew.York has dono nobly in spite Of many
discouragements, and she is entitled TO justice,
ct least, If not forbearance Yet Mr.. Blunts
reasoning does not strike us a. strong. For
instance, he estimates our total vote Tin the
city, OF only 100000, two years ago an imper-
feet registry showed, we think, nearly ~, 900,
and four years ago we actually cast 1858.

The utterance of Anti.Sayery sentiments has

The Daily Nens culls out of various accounts
of. the recent combats before Atlanta three

The Daily Ners has no regular correspondent
with any of our Union armies; its Military adj

by fellow traitors in Washington and Balti-
more. But TIE TRIBUNE has had two regular
correspondents-men of signal intelligence, in
dustry and integrity-with Gen. Shermans
army throughout the campaign; and those cor
respondents have given full. vivid and circum'
stantial portrayals Of every battle fought around
o. well as on the advance to Atlanta. Those
Letters show that the Rebels were worsted in
nearly every collision-that they have lost, in
the aggregate, twice at least and probably
thrice, as many men as We have done; and that

ten years). Six per cent kept up to 1864 would
give Us q voting force now Of 10000, Of course
including those in service. Again. Mr.. Blunt
forgets that there Is an extra per cen.ago OIL
young mon in all large cities, and more espe'
cially in ours. In St. Lawrence County in this
State, almost a purely agricultural DISTRICT tho
males between 20 and 40 years OF age are only
% per cent of the whole male population, while
in this city they form 80 per cent OF all tho
males. In New-YOrk and Brooklyn tho males
between 20 and 40 are very nearly 40 Per cent;
in all the State beside only 30 per cent. Hence
we are in for an enrolment 10 per cent
higher than the country, by this crowding in oil
clerks and adventurous from the rural districts.
Another point that should BIO remembered (snd
of course remedied if POSSIBILITY is tho enrolment
of aliens. While there is q natural desire on the
part of citizens to escape, aliens have no motive
TO keep their names of-they know that II
drawn they will be exempt, and so take
no care to have their names erased or even TO
inform enrolling officers of their alienage. These
names go by thousands into tho aggregate upon
which tho draft is predicated. 1t is suspected
that great many such names have been de-
signedly imposed upon the enrollers by Cop
porheads for the purpose Of producing the ex'
cessive quota of which they now 80 loudly COM
plain. and with the ultimate design Of making
tho draft so oppressive that 1t might furnish the
occasion for another rioe.
But the matter is now fully brought to the
attention of the proper authorities, and it is to
be hoped that full and exact Justice will be
done, so as to remove every reasonable cause Of
complaint. We must take it for granted that
the Democratic Supervisors are strongly in Ia
vor of raising any just number of men night
here at home, since only yesterday. by party
vote, they refused to undertake tho raising Of
mon in tho South to help along our quota.
