I have been able to gather an outline, how ever, of its contents. a letter from gen. rosecranz to GEN. LEE. The paper consists first of a letter ad dressed by General Rosecranz to General Lee and others, in which he states that he came here of his own accord, cently directed the ship of State, is no longer at the helm ; his place is now oc country, and by platforms of the two great cupicd by anoth- r.

But I cannot do so, and, under no circumstances, could I possibly attend one tenth of the meetings. the highest duty of a wise statesmanship to provide every honorable means of se curing relief and re-inspiring hope. But to see these very misfortunes of our peo ple seized upon by dirty, Radical hypo crites, and used as a cover in an attempt to secure the consent of that very people to add degradation and dishonor to their misfortunes, was too much to allow silence. would be such a one as would materially aid in the reconstruction of our common and prosperity. In this letter, which breathed patriotism in every line, as I am iuformed, he propounded sundry inquiries to General Lee, among which were, whether we can hope lor any permanent I dosyn.pathize with and would reseur the ' P eace aI >d prosperity under the present or principles (call them n the | promptly yield their offices, and turn over which you may) wore distinctly recogniz ed by, and embodied in. the Constitution of the United States, by its illustrious trainers.

I counsel you, in tlie second place, to realize the fact, that the “war of sections” is at an end, and that the great majority of those with whom you were recently en gaged in deadly conflict, sincerely desire the speedy restoration of that friendly re 111011 lation and brotherly love which formerly characlerized the intercourse between the to and established, aud, thereby, of pro North ; business will revive ; the price of tablished. So far the two parties agree. From this point they diverge, and present mo mentous issues to be settled by the Presi dential election. The Radical party not willing that the revulvution shall stop with the war, and where the war left it. Ever since the war they have been push ing on tlie revolution—pushing it on by acts, avowed by their recogni-.ed leader, Thud. Stephens, to be outside the Consti tution—pushing it on by fraud, and viol ence, and military tyranny, or still more odious and oppressive negro supremacy. Not satisfied with destroying the right of secession, they are seeking to destroy the little remnant of State sovereignty vet left to the States — the right of each State to regulate the elective franchise within its own limits, and other lights essential to local State government. Nor do they stop at the total destruction of State rights. They are manifestly trying to destroy the consttutioual rights and pow ers of the President and the Supreme Court, and concentrate all power in Con gress. When Mr. Pendleton said, in his late great speech at Bangor, ihat the ob ject of the Radical party was to convert the United States Government into a “unity instead of a Union,” as our lath ers made it, he took a statesmanlike view of the issue, and happily expressed it in a well-pointed phrase. In addition to this the Radicals, not content with the abolition of slavery by the war, now seek to carry this branch of the revolution further than the war car- two sections of the Union. To those, ! r ied it. They seek to establish the politi- moting another revolution ; whereas, as our property will enhance, and we can at we rejected them, the Radicals are sub- ford to increase the wages of labor.
