a WASHINGTON (Iispatch to the Clnclnnatl

A Washington dispatch to the Cincinnati
Enquirer says:
The restoration of General McClel nanl to
command is regarded here by politicians as
a condemnation impliedly of General Grant
who detached him from the lines before
Yicksburg. Such was the course of tho
War Office in reference to subordinat,
Generals whom Mcclellan put In back
ground. like Stoneman, Casey. ETC., who
have been petted since. A long list of Abb
clifton Generals have also been kept on pay
and easy service, whom Mr.. Stanton will
not invest with any important'command in
the field.

A HARp ENC ~ MecLELLAN.

The New York Herald which our readers all know
gives an ardent support to Mcclellan, but denoun-
ces the Chicago Platform, in Mondays paper pays
the following left handed compliment to "Little
Mae'':-
We were very much astonished by the indication
given in General McClellans reject speech that
he had never heard Of General Graut. General
Mcclellan, as the majority of our readers know, is
the candidate of the Chicago Convention for Presi-
dent and that Convention in its platform proclaim
ed its sympathy with our army and navy. Its can
didate is therefore expected to give expression to
that sympathy in his speeches, and this General
Mcclellan is understood to have done at Orange.
He spoke of Sheridan, Sherman and Farragut but
he very strangely omitted the greatest of allCen-
eral Grant-the man who certainly, by. General Nc
Clellan's example, is entitled to praise and glory,
not only for his own particular achievements, but
for the achievements of all others for when General
MsClelan occupied the position that General Grant
now occupies all the Victories East and West North
south and every where were his. He claimed this,
and the country admitted il. But, whether or no
General Mcclellan ever heard of the existence of
this General Grant, can assure him that it is the
universal opinion of the people of this country that
there is such man. 1t is believed that this Cen
eral fought great battle at Fort Donelson quite
early in the war; and achieved great victory there,
capturing fifteen thousand prisoners It is assert
ed that he captured the rebel stronghold of Vicks-
burg, with forty thousand prisoners, and gained a
great battle at Chattanooga in the same year. It is
positively known that he has fought great battles
and been able TO move his army next day. There
is indeed, one reason that has tended to keep him
out Of sight he has never made any great noise in
the papers with complaints against the bad treat
ment ofthe administration Yet in spite Of all this
his name is in all the histories of the war; How Is
that General Mcclellan should not have met
with it in his reading lately He has had nearly
wo years of leisure2 What has he been at7

REBEL CANINE DESPATCH CARRIER

An officer who came up from City Point had with
him an ugly looking specimen Of the genus canine,
which he guarded very carefully. The dog it ap-
pears, was great pet with both our own and the
Rebel pickets in front ofHancock' Corps. The dog
had been trained to carry messages between the
pickets. Arebe paper wonld be placed in his mouth
and he would seamperoF to the Union lines deliver
up the paper, and return with Nothern paper. He
has been entrusted with packages of coffee and to-
bacco, and always delivered them promptly and
safely.
The Rebels, however, tried to make use Of him
for transmitting information from one portion Of
their lines to another, and the four-legged messen
ger having been caught with one of those messages
he was confscated and brought North. - Flashing
