TnJy hia.day^ of triumph la approeohing, while! the downfall of hla calumniators Is close' atSund, when the ac-' [cursed dogs who have attempted to hoot him down .will fool the; l.vongeanoe of an outraged army. While in Philadelphia last; 'week, we conversed wllh a number'of soldiers who had beon.i I wounded In the battles before Richmond, and with' many who had suffered In the recent contests on the Rappahannock. These■ I men all ■peak? in the highest terms of Oen.

One waracarred veteran, who had served with UcClellan , on the Peninsula, said: "Let McOlellan lead our boys, and we'll 1 follow hla to hell." "Tee, the whole army will 30 with him to [ the death," said another. A minister of tho gospel, who volun- j teered to assist In bringing oar wounded off the field of carnage ; at Bull Bun, Informs us that, when it became known last week that (Hn. HcClellan waa placed In command, the soldiers In front of Washington became almost frantlo with delight, some of them actually weeping wllh Joy. Such enthusiasm waa never bt- ^ ton witnessed as tbe army,manireated on the reception of the 1 glorious news of McOleDan's appointment. Confidence was once I hoi* restored, and where gloom and despondency had prevailed, all was now Joy and gladneas. The maimed, tho wounded, the sick and dying, all alike bore testimony to the ability, the loyalty, ; the kindness of heart of the young commander.. We have seen strong men weep while' speaking In warm terms of Oen. McOlel- , lan; and of . hla care and attention to the wauta or his men. What - I have the scurrilous newspaper detainers of afcClellan to say to ' the evidence of . those bruised and mangled heroes who hsvo ' served under that gallant officer?

Ho' j would sooner lose his wholo cabine t, than lose'the services of an ' - officer like-McClellan. There are, no doubt, men In the Union: army, who have done our cause muoh Injury; officers whom loyal I men dislike to follow, .officers who have played our soldiers into; , the hands of the enemy time and again. But Gen. HcOtellan it I . not one of them. He ty true to the core, and had he.been un- j ; trammeled,his forces, In all probability, would have boon.

It would be supposed that, with all the adverse circumstances attending the recent movements of our army, and the attempts of traitors In our midst to create a panic, our places of amusement must suffer terribly. ..Yet we have the satisfaction of placing upon the record tho fact that last Week was really one of the most profitable experienced by managers for some time. True It Is/and yet how to account for It. we are at k lost to know. The'affairs of the nation nover looked so gloomy as they did last week, and yet nearly all our theatres, minstrel halls, and mualo halls were well patronised. - When, In the latter part of the week, It became known that Oen. McOlellan was*again placed at the head, of our grand army, the enthusiasm of tie people knew no bounds, and the week closed with a firm rellanceln the ability of the government to aend the rebels back to* their own treasonable capital. Instead of permuting them'to menace the loyal States. The aligbest reference to HoOlellan, at our theatres, and other places of public resort, was at once caught'up and applauded to the echo, and the wish, expressed that the traducera of our young commander might be hunk up on, that "eour apple tree".alongside of Jeff.

To, look in at several of our. theatres anahalls last week, one would not iheve supposed that. adeatructlve civil war was raging so.close at hand, and yet the hurl, ton was dark, and clouds were lowering, but It-was that dark hour that heralds In the approaching day.
