How 4 Mcclellan CAPTAIN WAS CONVEX.
rsp.-At a social gathering night before last,
during the evening, Captain w. A. 5uther-
ianl, Assistant Adjutant General, formerly
Of 6 neral Stee1man's staff, captured during
Stonaman's raid and recently exchanged was
present and was toasted, aud made a happy
response. We regret that every soldier iu
the army and every patriot in the land could
not have listened to his remarks. Captain
Sutherland, before his capture. was well
known as warm and earnest Mcclellan man.
In the remarks alluded tn he mentioned this
fact, and said that he had changed base in
this particular He was now for Lincoln. be-
cause during his Imprisonment his guards at
Charleston, and every rebel he met with one
exception, learning that he was Democrat,
electioneered with him for Mcclellan That
exception stole an opportunity to whisper in
his ear that the south was only holding out
in hopes of Lincoln's defeat and assured him
that if Lincoln was elected the war would in
stantly end and Internationally cease, as the
south would then see that resistance was no
longer practicable. Captain Sutherland de-
clares tina. he never could nor never would
vote for any man at the request Of armed
traitors. -Chaaanooga Gazette. u.s.

GEN. BANKS TO THE VETERAN SeLDIEIs.--
At the meeting of the Veteran Soldiers Union
Club in New York, ON Wednesday evening,
the following letter from Major Gen. Banks
was read:
Astor House, Ncw York, October 70 - Cen
tlemen regret that l am unable to accept
your nyiration to attend the meeting of the
Veteran Union Association Tonight. The
memorable contest in which we are engaged
presents no incident more cheering TO the
friends of liberty throughout the world than
the patriotic spirit which the people have
everywhere exhibited in the great sacrifices
they have been called upon to make and the
brightest feature of this is the general support
given by the soldiers of the army to the cause
of the country and the Administration which
represents it.
We cannot justify the destruction of a gov
ernment, so magnificent ascurs, for any cause
assigned as a pretext for this rebellion.
The people must and will reject everything
which paltcrs to the success Of the enemy,
and make this grand calamity impossible.
The veterans of the ARMY, who have de
Tended the integrity of tie Union in the field
and now organized for the purpose of main
tanning the civil side f.tho government, have
double title to the chaplet of hopors they
have Won History presents no such retort
as this. The concurrence of such element
of power in support of such a cause makes GU
success as honorable as it is certain If it i
in my power shall seek an opportunity tt

the Presidential canvass closes.
