GsN. JEFF. q. DAVIS: Dear Generat--
In our recent short but most useful CAM
psign 1t was my good fortune to have at.
tached to me the corps.of Gen. Howard and
the Division commanded by yo0rseif.
now desire to thank you personally and Of
ficially for the handsome manner in which
you and your command have borne them
selves thrOuehouti D't = fiCr
You led in the pursuit of Brsgg's army
in the route designated for my command,
and | admired the skill with which you
handled the Division at Chickamauga, aud
more especially in the short and sharp en-.
counter at nightfall near Graysville, When
Gen. Grant called on us unexpectedly and
without due preparation to march 70 Knox
vile, for the relief of General Burnside, you
and your officers devoted yourselves to tho
work like soldiers and patriots, marching
through cold and mud without murmur,
trusting to accidents for shelter and subsis-
tence.
During the whole march. whenever I en-
countered your command, l found all its Of.
| ficers at their proper place, and tho men in
admirable order. This is the true test, and
l pronounce your Division one Of the best
ordered in the service. wish you oil honor
and success in your career, and shall deem
myself most fortunate il the incidents of war
bring us together again Be kind enough
to say to Genl's-, Morgan and Beatty, and
Col. McCook, your Brigade commanders,
that l have publicly and privately COM
mended their Brisades, and that stand
\ prepared at all times to assist them in what
ever way lies in my power. t~
! again thank you personally, and beg to
subscribe myself
| Your sincere friend,

the honor to submit the above fattering
testimonial of Maj. Gen. ShernksA to the

The remarks Of General Sherman are
highly complimentary, and when We con-
slider the high rank and great experience Of
this officer in conducting campaigns, and
the trying circumstances under whieh these
complimentary observations were elected, |
am sure they will not fail to b. highly ap-
preciated BY US all, aud prove an additional
incentive to future exertion and success.
| Please permit me to unite with General

Of mischief; but mighty changes have been
accomplished since that early day, not only
in our fair first mothers posterity, but also

Examination Extraordinary.

Mr.. C. z. KimbaIl, was called upon yes,er-
day, in the Copperhead County Convention,
for a speech, and in response he gave very
curious explanation of the circumstances
which led to Judge Towards nomination at
Bangor. 1t would appear from Mr.. C.'s
statement that the Judge was not nominated
as a compliment to his own talents or qualif-
cations, nor out of any respect of the party
for him personally or otherwise, nor from aBy
expectation of his being elected, but simply to
make him bob for Mr.. Siredt's Kite. Judge
Howard must feel highly honored, to receive
nomination under such circumstances
merely to afford wind for his neighbours sail.

One of the Congressional party having been
invited TO the mayors levee at Bangor, de-
clined to attend, giving as a reason, we are
informed, the refusal of the city authorities TO
allow the Democratic Convention to be held
in the City Hall. Argus.
There is not the first element of truth in
the above paragraph. 1t is false length,
breadth and thickness. OF the party referred to
there were three Democrats, Messrs. Radford OF
n. Y, Perry of N. j., and Hale of Pa. All
three of these gentlemen were present at
Mayor Dale's levees to our certain personal
knowledge. Mayor Dale called our attention
to the notice yesterday in our office, and said
there was nothing within his knowledge out
of which to fabricate the statement.
