THREE LETTERS FROM THREE GENEeALs.-
We published yesterday morning letter from
General Grant, letter from General Sherman
and letter from General Mcclellan. They
are all terse, vigorous and patriotic We ad-
wise politicians to study them and learn how to
write. General Grants letter was written be-
fore the Chicago nomination. General Sher-
mans letter was written after the Chicago
nomination, and General McClellan's letter ac-
copied the Chicago nomination. All three Of
the letters were aimed at the copperhead peace
party. and between these three generals the
Woods and the Scymours, and the vallandig
bans, are completely annihilated.
