A TRAVELLING gossiping correspondent
of the New York Times, who has lately
been to Niagara Falls, and there found and
saw his old friend, George N. Sanders,
the wire puller of the late pretended peace
negotiations, thus tells the simple truth
about him and the said negotiations
81 expected what found, viz; the same
curly headed, fat, good natured, cunning
George, who talked precisely as our friends
of the opposition do with regard to the
administration. He had the same stale
arguments about gold, bankruptcy, arbi-
trary arrests, suppression of the press,
waste of life, exhaustion of the north, the
imminence at the north of bread riots and
anarchy, the unconquerable power of the
south, the butcher Grant, the bufFoon and
original GORILLA Lincoln. This interview
convinced me (of what was sorry to be-
lieve prime fdeie) that the leaders of the
OPPOSITION to Mr.. Lincoln are in accord with
the leaders of the armed rebellion. The
movements OF Sanders and his conductors
are plainly intended to enable the oppo-
sition to say to the people that the Presi.
dent has rejected honorable terms of peace.
1t is trick, and nothing more-the trick
of mere party politiciau-with this depth
to it, however: 1t means, gentlemen, the
south is willing to come back anu role you,
as it has done in times past If you are
ready for this, defeat Lincoln and give US
good democratic PRESIDENT"

GEN. HUNTER has been relieved from the
command of this department and General
Crook assigned to his place. West Virginia
is the grave of generals. The loss of their
heads is apparently only question of time.
We hope that the right man in the right
place has been secured at last. General
Crook starts in with more than an average
of public confidence in his favor. he is
believed to be a competent military man.
Gen. Hunter retires without any laurels-
Just as he came.

From the Cincinnati Gazette.
GenerRI Hunfer.


We have published heretofore the greater
part of letter from an officer of General
Hunters expedition, to the New York Her.
aid, vindicating his management in the
valley expedition, and distributing censure
with an nnsparing hand on others. Among
the rest he charges that Sigel, with 10000
men, stampeded from Martiusburg, and
thus opened the way for the rebel invasion
Of Maryland, and that Hunter was not re.
sponsible for this, because he was ordered
from Washington not to supercede Sigel.
We have also published letter to the
same journal from some one with Sigel,
recapitulating his force in the vicinity Of
Martinsburg, showing that he had not more
than half the number above mentioned,
and that he retreated successfully, carry
ing off his trains and q large amount of
stores, leaving nothing but quantity of
forage; and that had he delayed, his troops
and stores would have been surrounded BY
superior force, even if he had had the ex-
aggerated number.
We are aware that the rebel invasion
was the fault of the general military situa-
ton, therefore we have joined in none of
the ignorant censnre of General Hunter ON
that account. And it is with the best
wishes for his success that we remark that
from the beginning of the war his reputa-
ton has required 80 much censure of other
officers, that it is an uncertain commodity,
great fluctuations in the public
