General I.e. yd Tilghmaii, made a prisoner at Fort Henry, was Governor Magoffin's brig adier of Kentucky militia for the western di vision of the state, and, it uill he remember ed, made u visit to Gen.

Wlo-n all was ready, Tilgl.man went over with I'uckner to the rebel side. A New Major (ieneral Appointed: Special fiinpati-h to the Ch.cago Tribune. Wa-iiincton, Feb. 10, TcJ. Kthan Allen llitche.ick, of Vermont, to day appointed major general of the army, is a grandson of Kthan Allen of revolutionary fame, and is one of the " Praise God bare bones "kind ; being equally i tl'eclive in pray ing and righting, lie has the highest reputa tion for military capacity. Gen. 11. is already a veteran in the service, having been colonel of the 2d infantry, and brigadier general by brevet, until the past two or three, years, since when he lias been in private life. Generals Abererombie and Montgomery, of the volun teer "service, were his lieutenant colonel and lnajor,reepeetively,in the old l2d regiment, lie lias been urged lor this appointment lor some months." Yes, ho was long urged for n place in the union army, but Cameron, w ho was secretary of war, remembored that years ago, Gen. Hitch cock, theu a major in the I'nitcd States army, was the mini who exposed his frauds upon the Winnebago Indians, and Cameron de prived the union cause of the valuable ser vices of Gen. Hitchcock. Mr. Stanton can appreoiate him, it seems. The Akmy ami (its. JIcCi.ei.i.an. We are informed that a very deep and bitter feel ing prevndes the whole army of the Potomac against the defamers and persecutors of Gen. SlcClellan, officers and men alike denouncing those who endeavor to mislead the public with regard to his plans and views, and raise doubts as to his skill and wisdom in carrying out any plan. The persecution alluded to is not confined to our own country. We see in Europe that the presg there is full of fnult finding, not'only with Gen. McClulIan, but with our whole system of operations, as un warrantably slow and inefficient. J t cannot be questioned that very much the greater part of the dissatisfaction thus expressed arises from the ignorance and inexperience of the fault-finders. The vaitnus of tho field of operations m our war is not appreciated by them. In Lurope it U really astonishing how very small the number is, even among tho most intelligent, who have any jst idea of our country, and among our own countrymen there are large numbers who do not proVerlv estimate its great area. Let all tho dissatis fied study our country and recur to the oper ations in the Crimean war, where in a territory mucn less tlian that ol the state of Rhode Island, moro than 20l),0Ui men and so much time were required for its investment, and they will, without doubt, comprehend better the difficulties and delays necessary to invest more than twenty times the Crimean area with only about twice the force brought into the field there.

It is very clear that the opposition to the confirmation of the nomination of brigadier General Willis A. Gorman, is simply a pol itical one. That is, it springs wholly I10111 his bitter political opponents at home, some of w hom are in congress, and another un em ployee of the house of representatives. The pretence under which they seek to defeat his nomination is that on one occasion ho caused two negroes to be whipped. The cir cumstances uuder which hedid so are notori ously as follows, viz: The negroes in uucs- tion occupied huts iu the immediate vicinity I of his camp, aud were notoriously engaged in J surreptitiously selling pestiferous whisky to soldiers. Iu so doing, they defeated all Gen eral Gormau's efforts to keep the men under proper discipline. They were repeatedly warned off, and every other expedient at hand t" compel them to forego their profitable iu lam.ius traffic with the men was essayed in vain. Whereupon Gen.
