Fillmore for Mcclellan.

BUFFALO, August Il, 1861.
Ny DEAR SIR: Your favor of the 18th
came to hand during my absence, but
was greatly delighted to see by the papers
that you had so large and enthusiastic a
meeting for Mcclellan. sincerely hope
that he will receive the nomination by the
Chicago Convention.
I see my name occasionally alluded to in
connection with that Convention, but
cannot think there is anything of it, for ]
believe that all know that do not desire
the nomination, and / cannot think any
great number desire me to have it.

WHAT THE &c CHRISTIAN COMMISSION - DOES.
Geo. H. Stuart, Chairman of the Christian Com
mission, writes to Rev. Geo. J. Mingins, of San
Francisco, as follows: The work of the Chris
tan Commission increases. Large supplies are
now needed daily for the men in trenches. Many
veterans may be kept in the ranks and from the
grave by timely help. One veteran is worth two
green men, who would cost one thousand dol
lars each. Our delegates go to them in the
trenches or on picket duty and supply them
Ten thousand dollars day could be used in
this work to great advantage. Soldiers appre-
ciate it, and often, with tears, beg Gods bless
ing on the Commission. At City Point fifteen
tents, a steam fre-engine, to supply forty acres
of hospital with water ffty-eight delegates,
four forty-fve gallon cooking caldrons and a
bakery are part of the Commission establishment
for relieving thousands Of sick and wounded.

SHOWING THEIR TRUE CoLoRs.-Day by day the
Copperhead press grows more and more bold in
the avowal of its sentiments and purposes and
to such an extent has it gone that it now scarce
ly makes pretense of being in favor of the
Union or opposed to the rebellion in the
abstract. Since the ndefatigabe missionary
Ridge has been associated with the Grass Valley
National, that paper has avowed its true senti-
ments, and now boldly advocates the principles
of its party. Speaking of President Lincoln
that paper says:
The South took up against him. because they he
eved that he intended disregard Constitution and NAV
the part of usurpe and the Democratic party have po
done all that the South predicted he would"
Here we have the virtual admission that at the
time of the commencement of the rebellion there
had been no act of the President to provoke it.
We also find the National justifying the avowed
rebellion against the Constitution, laws and au-
thority of the United States because its leaders
pretended to "belieye that the President in
tended to disregard the Constitution We also
find the frank admission that the Democratic
party have taken up arms against the Gov
eminent and in the interest of the rebels, which
admission is connected with the virtual assertion
that it is the duty of the Democracy to prosecute
this unholy warfare in behalf of the rebellion
and against the Government of the people until
they succeed in overthrowing the latter and Sc
curing the triumph of the former. All pretense
of Democratic devotion to the cause of the coun-
try is boldly thrown aside and the political issue
is boldly stated by the opponents of the Union
party to be " the triumph defeat of the rebel
lion, and the leaders of the Democracy avow
themselves to be in favor of its triumph.-Bee.

AMERICAN SoLDIERs-The desperately hard
fights continued through three days at the in
trenchments around Petersburg without
parallel in this war. After the first battle
of Bull Run the reports of the operations of our
army were received with shouts of derision in
Europe, and it was publicly and mpudently de-
clared from half dozen different sources that
the Northern people would not fight We were
declared to be a contemplate horde of trades
men and money-changers, sharp enough at bar
gains, but entirely without the lofty spirit that
leads men to risk their lives in battle. Those
assertions have been amply answered on many a
bloody field, but never with such terrible dis
tinctness in the last fights. No such battles
as these are fought in Europe, and with any two
European armies face to face one or the other
would inevitably give way before there had been
a 1.-THE of the carnage that marked the assaults
of Thursday, Friday and Saturday last. We have
given evidence in this war all through of the
possession of military power that may well alarm
some European Governments-of power sufh-
cient to cope at once with both England and
France and with a very small army of such
men as are now on the James river we could
drive Macmillan out of Mexico in six months,
however strongly he might be supported by the
Powers interested in the destruction of the Mon
roe doctrine.-N. Y. Herald, June 22d.
