WASHINGTON, March 4.-The Senate
to-day in executive session rejected the
nomination of John Mcneil. of st.
Louis, for United States Marshal for the
Eastern District of Missouri by the
very decisive vote Of 80 TO 7. This
action was based npon an adverse re-
port from the Judiciary Committee, Co
companied with statement that Gen.
eral Mcneil in 1862, while in command
Of United States troops at Palmyra, Mo-,
ordered the execution Of eleven citizens
OF that neighborhood who had been ar.
rested, but not yet tried, on q general
charge Of hwhacking," and did ex-
ecute ten of them without trial, as n
measure of so called retaliation for the
alleged abduction and supposed muir.

eution of these prisoners IL the missing
Unionist was not returned within GER.
toin period, and rs nothing was heard
from the latter. the orders were carried
into effect by McNeil's provost marshal
upon the designated day. A very scan.
aalous story was also told about this
provost. marshal, and it was asserted
that General Mcneil continued the off.
Ger in service under him after the dis.
graceful facts became known. General
Mcneil early In the administration Of
President Hayes was appointed to the
position Of Indian Inspector and still
holds that Office.

Our Military Records.
From tho Philadelphia Times.


Little by little the country learns
how mean ambition ruled among our
military commanders, and how they re-
sorted to "ways that are dark and tricks
that are vain" 10 advance themselves
and hinder the advancement OF others.
Even the military records OF the govern.
ment are complete, and il happens that
the gaps in them are always made In
chapters which might affect the fame Of
aspiring chieftains.
Is was distinctly charged by Senator
Randolph IN the Senate on Monday
of last week that General Mcdowell de.
liberately suppressed for seventeen
years a dispatch he received from Gener-
al Fitz John Porter on the field OF the
second Manassas battle, that would
have explained Porter's action and ac-
quilted him before the first military
court that heard his case. IL this state
ment be true, the man who should be
dismissed in disgrace is General Nc.
Dowell and General Porter should sue.
ceed to his rank.
Ii il an open secret that the military
records of the last campaign from the
Rapidan to Richmond are incomplete,
and that important dispatches relating
to that series of battles have disappear.
ed beyond the reach Of history. The
recent conversations with General
Grant, so well reported by Mr.. John
Russell Young, show that there were
shadows between Grant and Meade |;
but the world has Grants record as he
has made it, while Meade's record, as
made by himself, is either no longer in
existence or not accessible
1t is an open secret, also, that there is
no accessible record OF the court Of in.
auiry that investigated General Buells
Kentucky and Shiloh campaign. II
has often been sought for by interested
parties, and the press has repeatedly
called for its testimony in disputed mil.
itary issues, but it is not TO be had. Was
its destruction a necessity to shield the
blunders of Shiloh?
An important chapter OF the military
history of pennsylvania, that IL init.
mately connected with the vindication
of the patriotism of the State. has been
lost from the military records both at
Harrisburg and Washington. The cor
respondence between General Patter-
son, Secretary Cameron and Governor
Curtin on the question OF the govern
ment accepting the twenty-five thou.
sand additional troops called out by
General Patterson in the spring OF
1861, is not to be found at either Capi.
tai. 1t disappeared at Harrisburg dur.
ing the administration Of Governor
Geary, and it has not been visible at
Washington for dozen years or more
There are many things in military
circles which may he wisely concealed
and without injury TO any one; but the
systematic destruction or suppression
of facts which hear upon the history OF
the war, or which attest the innocence
or guilt or errors of military men, is
not dictated by considerations Of pub
lie policy. After all. military heroes
are but men, with full share human
nature in them, and they have contrib
uted their part with liberality TO bring
dishonor and distrust upon the govern.
meDt that has made them great.
