UT rT. RRuTK,

The niders and abettors of General MCCLEL-
Ian, whose pen is mightier than his sword,
inasmuch as he killed himself by his letter TO
the Chicago Convention, have been getting it
hot and heavy through the columns Of the
New York Daily NeUs. Indeed, the Gene
raj is badly treated by some of the principal
organs to which, it viii be believed, he would
have looked for cOuntenance and support
refusing him consolation in his hour Of defeat,
and applying TO his soul narrowing caustic in
stead of fattering unction. This is hard, in
deed. The information that principle was
tramplCd under foot throughout all the sequel
of the Chicago nOmination-that the eNpe-
diency that Whitfield away nearly all traces of
Democracy from the platform completed its
work in General MCCLELLAN's letter-that
that Convention was marked by short-sightcd
cowardCe-and that General McCLELLAN
had repudiated the principles upon which he
had been nominated, and had substituted a
hybrid platform, comes with a particularly
good grace from lips unused to make such
admissions. Contrast the tone with which
MCCLELLAN il treated by the organs of his
own party with that in which the Republi-
cans now speak of him, and then ponder well
whether he needs not to eXclaim :-"Save me
from my iriendsw The condolcments of a
friend are as difficult to smile under as the
Kisses Of an enemy; but whom satellite
escapes from it, orbit, and makes q rush at
the sun around which it reyolvcd, the grace
required to contemplate the anomaly with
cquanlmity must be great indeed.
