HISTORICAL FICTIONs.

General Early, Of the late Confederate
army, has published a pamphlet giving
history of his campaigns IN the Valley
o. Virginia, IN which be asserts that the
Federal Generals, including Gems MeClel-
Ian. Grant Meade and Sheridan, never
failed, in all their dispatches, to place the
forces Of the Confederates opposed to
them, at three and four times their real
number. 10 these assertions, Gen Early
is supported by other Confederate COM
manders Attic battles before Richmond,
when Gen. Mcclellan estimated General
Lee army in defense Of the city at over
100000, it is affirmed that the Confeder-
ate force did not exceed 10000; at the
battle of Antietam, when the Confederates
were estimated BY Gen Mcclellan at over
100000, there were but 10000 at Cold
Harbor. when Gen Grant put down
Gen. Breckenridge command at $4,000,
there were but 1000, and in the campaigns
in the Valley Gen Early asserts that
General Sheridan frequently reported the
capture of larger number of prisoners
| than his whole army

GENERAL GRANT AND THE IM-
PFACHERS.

EEAAIlE<HA
The Albany, \. Y, Argus states that
Gen. Grant, in conversation with several
army officers, upon the report that he was
intending to sail for Europe in the spring,
stated that unless national affairs wore
very different aspect from that at present
presented, he certainly should not be alb
sent from the capitol longer than ten
hours at any one time through the whole
year
Another report from Washington is to
the effect that the Committee on Judicia-
~ will soon summon the General before
them for the purpose Of obtaining such
information from him, if possible, as will
| test his fealty to the President Should
they find him leaning towards his policy
80 strongly a. to forbid the hope that lac
will desertit, it is said the impeachment
project will be abandoned, while on the
other hand if there is reason to believe
that he would not actively interfere for
the execution of that policy, impeachment
will then be prosecuted
The committee have other designs, too,
it is said, in bringing the General before
them which viii in due time appear. And
this mysterious announcement is to be in
terpreted, doubtless, as a tender Of FIX
ecutiye powers 10 the General in the inter-
regnum of the Executive Office
The relations Of General Grant to these
questions are complicated by the fact that
General Butler is the champion and leader
in the movement and the enmity be-
tween the victorious leader in the late
war, the catiff and opprobrium Of it is
open and proclaimed on both sides 1t
was in revenge Of Grants public and
official stigma Of his incapacity and use
lessness that Butler, last fall, announcing
the measure of impeachment, used his
threat 1--WE are told, said he, that if
the President is impeached it win try the
strength of the government-that the
army and navy will be called upon to sus-
tain the Executive Let there be no fear
about that If the army, as such, on any
portion of it, or any officer of it, shall 80
far forget the duties he owes to his flag
and to his profession as a soldier as to
answer such d call, that small body Of
men shall be swept from the face Of the
earth Wendell Phillips, kind of
bottle holder to the Bottled Butler, uses
much the same language, and both de-
mand the deposition of the President be
fore trial Without such violent initia-
ton Of the impeachment both confess it
would be worth nothing.

WAS TENNESSEE EVER OUT OF THE
UNION2

A correspondent of the Boston Post,
signing Tennessean,' states the follow
ing facts as showing that Tennessee was
never out Of the Union, either in the esti-
nation Of Congress or Of those fierce
Radicals from this State who now hold
that the acts Of secession ON the part Of
the Southern States destroyed their State
hood
The ordinance Of secession was adopted
in Tennessee in June, 1861. The regular
biennial election took place in the follow
ing August. The contest that interviewed
was fierce and bitter beyond ell that had
ever preceded IT, In that contest Mr..
johnson took the lions share He became,
by common consent, the leader of the
Unionists. Giving but little rest TO either
mind or body, with wonderful energy and
sublime heroism, he devoted himself 10 his
work At the risk Of his life he went from
point TO point, raising his voice every
where in defense Of the cause Of the Union,
and in denunciation Of its foes. The most
powerful philippe the writer ever heard
was hurled by Andrew johnson at seces-
flNli anu AAh auAhRAH AL n ANhA u a. AfNftANA
by a regiment Of Confederate troops, and
in the very faces Of the soldiery.
The result Of the Conhict-a result due
more TO the exertions Of Mr.. johnson than
70 those Of any other man-was the defeat
Of sll the candidates for the Confederate
Congress in the districts Of Eastern Ten
nessee, and the election Of Messrs Nelson,
Maynard and Bridges TO the United States
House Of Representatives.
On the day Of the election, Mr.. MAYNARD,
who was in one Of the counties bordering
on Kentucky, escaped through the Confed-
crate lines, atterward went to Washington,
in the following December took his seat in
Congress. and held Il until the expiration
OF his term, March 4, 1868.
Mr. johnson made his way 10 Washing

tered the Senate aud remained there until

Mr. Nelson did not reach Washington.
He was arrested on theway, taken as pris-
oner TO Richmond, and paro'ed. Mr..
Bridges while trying 90 escape from the
State was also arrested. he was taken back
home. and remained there until February,
1863. He then succeeded in eluding Con-
federate vigilance, crossed the mountains
into Kentucky, went 90 Washington, took
