A Illuminating Letter.

The Lockport On. W Journal publish
es letter written by James Buchanan to
John Tyler, President of the ''Peace Con-
vention," on the 22d day of February,
1861. The original was taken by Capt.
W. III. Long, Assistant Adjutant General,
from the house of John Tyler, near Charles
City Court House. 1t seems impossible
to conceive that President of the United
States would so humiliate himself and his
country by apologizing to one of his coun-
tryman for allowing one or two companies
of regular troops to participate in the eel
bration of Washington's birth day. But
SO it is. The letter is as follows:
"WAsHINGToN, February %, 1861.
"My Dear Sir: / found it impossible to
prevent two or three companies of the
Federal troops from joining in the pro-
cession to-day with the volunteers Of the
district without giving serious offense to
the tens of thousands Of people who have
assembled to witness the parade.
'The day is the anniversary of Washing
tons birth, festive occasion throug hout
the land, and it has been particularly
marked by the House of Representatives,
"The troops everywhere else join in
such professions in honor of the birthday
of the Father of our Country, and i. would
be hard to assign good reason why they
should be excluded from the privilege
in the Capital founded by himself. They
are here.simply as posse comitatus, to aid
the civil authorities in case of need
Besides, the programme was published in
the National Lntsl2igencer of this morning
without my personal knowledge, the War
Department having considered the cele-
bration of the National anniversary by
the military arm of the government as a
matter of course.
"From your friend, very respectfully,
JAMES BUCHANAN.

mcclellan and Dixie.

The Richmond Dispatch, in June, 1862,
had the following editorial statement:
''A MILITARY ADVENTURE.
'1n the early part Of this war, Gen.
Mcclellan wrote TO distinguished officer
in the South erpreSsiny his desire To serOe
an the COnfederdfe army. If he dare deny
the faet-and his recent reports prove that
in mendacity heis therepresentatig man of
the Yankee nation-it can be demonstra-
ted bv such evidence as will close his lips
in eternal silence. When he was at West
Point, he affected to fraternize especially
with those from the South, and to have
little sympathy with those from his own
section. We dare say this was genuine,
and that he really was anxious to serve
under jeff Davis in this war, but the high
bribe offered by Lincoln was too much
for his easy virtue. He was not the man
to sacrifice interest to sentiment, and of
late has shown Il disposition to become as
extreme in his antagonism as In his friend
ship for the South"
The above was copied into the Tribune
of June 25th, 1862, as into many other
Journals of the loyal States. Did Gen.
Mcclellan ever authorize a denial OF its
main allegation We never saw any
The challenge and threat of the Dispatch
certainly required some sort OF notice If
any was ever taken, the fact has escaped
our observation.
The Richmond Wing copied the above,
and added
''Aiter the battle of Rich Mountain,
both Mcclellan and Rosecrans declared to
Confederate officers, who were prisoners Of
war, that they ,could much rather be leading
an army oyuiast Massachusetts han Vlr-
ginia. This can be proved by unimpeach-
able authority if denied. This boasted
soldier and ''gentleman" of the North is
as much a hireling and adventurer as any
Hessian In his ranks If he has any con-
science, it rebukes him daily for the base
work in which he is employed. When to
the pangs of remorse is added the shame
of defeat, his condition will be such as
even an enemy may pity"
OF course we receive these statements
with considerable allowance. What was
said to the captive Rebel officers was prob
ably to this effect--that, being Democrats,
