To The Editor

The sagacity Of the French kings IA
nous saying, "Telle est 7 Historic" is be-
ing proved to us every day by the curious
conflict of assertions touching past events.
Many writers are apt to look moro to the
telling qualities Of their arguments than
historical accuracy. There is class OF
critics. who, to gain point in contro-
versy or to injure the reputation of any
particularly obnoxious individual, will
even attempt to strip from our memories
oil we hold dear rs people and to ridicule
the heroism of our friends. The article
published in yesterdays REPUBLICAN
signed Loyalty" is u case in point. Tho
writer, for some real or imaginary cause,
dislikes Gen. Geo.. B. Mcclellan. and to
mander he feels Constrained Fl to say :"Iti is
true that under his leadership this splen-
did army" meaning the army of tho Po-
tomac, "was defeated again and again by
inferior forces" 1t is clear to be seen
that the critic was not of that "splendid
army" or he would scarcely attempt to
defame the mahy living witnesses of that
fierce struggle around Richmond in 1862,
or insult the memory of our heroic dead
whose life blood enriches tho sacred
soil from Yorktown to Malvern Hill.
VIII Loyalty" God save the term, ex-
plain in which of the many fights around
Richmond that splendid army" was de-
feated under Gen. Mcclellan by inferior
numbers2
Was 1t at Yorktown or Williamsburg,
where Gen. Magruder took the back track?
Was it at Hanover Court House, where
Gen. Raynes, of North Carolina, made
mastery retreat? Was it at Seven Pines,
whore tho confederate forces found ii
prudent to retire? Was it at Mechanics
vile, whore night closed the conflict
Was 1t the next day ut Gaines's Mill,
where tho 9TH corps withstood the on
slaught Of the combined armies of Lee
and Jackson from sunrise to sunset Was
it at Savage Station, White Oak Swamp,
Malvern Hill, or subsequently,, when Gen.
Mcclellan resumed the command of tho
army of the Potomac at Antietam? 1t
did not sound pleasant in tho days past
to have it said, "one reb can whip five
Yanks." / think the gentlemen who de-
lighted in these assertions have since
acknowledged their mistake and if tho
writer of the article above referred to
experienced one particle of the loyalty
he processes he would hesitate ere he dis.
puted historical facts, insulted bravo men,
and DETAINED the deeds of the dead to
vent his spleen against Gen. Mcclellan,

from tho Chicago board of trade which

the end Of tho present month. The board
Of trade has given notice to the telegraph
company that after the 29th instant it's
contract for furnishing quotations will
terminate, and will not DO renewed UNI
less some other arrangements con be
made. The reason for this movo ia said
to be that the quotations sent to sub.
scribers have been getting into tho
hands of bucket-shop propriotors and
others who do not carry on what Is known
as q legitimate business. There is no
grain exchange In this city, but there are
q dozen or fifteen bucket shops, and
several legitimate brokers with seats in
stock or grain exchanges. A well-known
broker was asked by REPUBLICAN, re-
porter what tho effect would BIO upon
bushes hero.
"Oh, they tried to cut or quotations
once BEFORE" he answered, "but IL was Of
no use; they wero known in tho bucket
shops all over the country Just as soon
rs they were posted in the exchange. Tho
trouble now is said to be that the quota
tions are obtained by members of the ex-
changes when posted and sent out by toll
egraph to the bucket shops over the coun-
try"
How will other exchanges take this

They will have to shut down on their

"Ttey are trying to protect their fran
