The Herald says:-

''Some time ago a story Was started that John Minor
Bolts had written letter to G. s. Smith, Of the Virginia
ate government in which he stated his opinion that
General Mcclellan was tr.itor and that the Southern
soldiers depended more upon him for the success Of
their cause than they did upon Lee. Mr.. Smith haa
denied this al ogether and question now arises as to
who arted this wickedly malicious falsehood. The
whole story originsted with correspondent Of the
Tribune and was published in that paper, fist in let
