Of the moster's hide.

Gen. HcClellan and the Army of theP

Editorial Cor of the Cincinnati tVjnimpr.--::il.

The general attachment of the soldiersof the Army of the Potomac to GeneralMcClellan, is a fact, abundant evidenceof which will bo discovered by any onewho keeps his eyes and ears opcu, andvisits the army. It may be, as somewho have stnpified themselves with theidea that McClellan i.s half idiot andhalf traitor, assert, that this is " one ofthe marvels of tho times." But it is atruth that cannot be evaded, and musthave its place in history. What may beits political or military bearings, I donot propose to discuss. I state tho caseas it stands. Certainly it is desirablethat Gen. McClellan should show himselfin all tlii:ic=> worthy the affection that hisold soldiers be;ir him. It is a eompliuient far outranking, in any just estimateof that which is desirable, all chat therarest and highest partisan political suecess can bestow.

The soldiers say of him, that he caredfor thorn—that he was watchful that theirwants should be supplied—that he stoodbetwotn them and the vultures, who, iuthe shape of contractors, devour the lifeof armies—that he noticed soldiers asmen—bowed and smiled, and lifted hiscap to them — would ask a barefootedman what had become of his shoes, anda siek man what was the matter with him.Iu a word, he saemed to take a humaninterest in thc men. If it is, I wish afew more of our Generals knew how toplay the demagogue, so as to secure thoabiding conliJcuce of tho soldiers.

The recent unprecedented rise in thc

price of printing paper will make it

still harder for the Press to weather the

storm, and has already compelled the

publishers in all the largo cities to ad-

vance the price of thier daily and weekly

no paper in the country can live at the

old rates, and even at the new rates

increased advertising patronage or live

Tlie Cost 0! thc War.One of the gravest charges which Eng-

lishmen have brought against us is that ofextravagance iu the conduct of the war.—We ure free to confess that the charge istrue, for we have been too peaceable a nationto learn the economies of war. I t may beinstructive, however, to know what warscost a nation whose power and influencehave been won ami sustained by tbe sword,and which prides itself is doing everythingmore cheaply tuan its neighbors. An in-structive piece of testimony on this headhas just come to us in the pages of Sir Staf-ford Northcotc's new book on the financesof Great Britain for tbe last 20 years.—From this authentic source we learn thattu.. ...,«t at (lie Crimean war to Great Brit-ain was $387,946,000, and that $210,000,000 of this sum was added by it to the na-tional debt. The war lasted less than twoyears, and the British army engaged in itat no time exceeded 25,000 men, while fora considerable part of the time, it was re-duced to a much .lower figure by diseaseand casualties. At the same rate it wouldcost us to maintain an army of 500,000mCD, for two years, $7,758,900,000; andour expenditure up to this time, assumingthat we have half a million of men in ser-viccfor a year (which is within the truth)would fall a little short of $4,000,000,000,an amount equal to tho national debt ofGreat Britain ; and about six times whatwe have actually expended.

A General Bankrupt Law.

The revulsions in business affairs produc-ed by the rebellion, have prostrated manyan upright man and many a commercialhouse, which, until then, were regarded asamong thc soundest and strongest, in theoouutry. Some of these have sunk entirelyout of sight; but others continue to strug-gle on in the hope, cherished month aftermonth, that Congress, moved by a spirit ofjustice as woll as the dictates of souudpolicy, could not much longer refuse the en-actment of a General Bankrupt law. Timsfar, however, this hope has been only of thekind that is deferred until it maketh theheart sick, aud the delay is without any un-derstandable cause. No just creditor cat*object to a law so framed as to secure forhis benefit all of the assesets of his debtor,while it sets the latter on his feet, and makeshim once more a man among business men.And no honest debtor can object to a meas-ure which docs full justice to his creditors,while it restores to him the free and unbur-dened use of his brains and energies for thosupport of himself family, and for tho gene-ral good of society. All the details of sucha measure have been fully discussed and ma-tured, and we earnestly invoke for it the

idjipit Jlrps.^ ADDUD TO PAMINB,—Fo

vor is uddod to the lamina in the Lan-cashire district. The London Lancet,a <<><ul inedioal authority, says:

true spotted typhus, the form'famine fever,' the dire poslilen-

tiaf concomitant of widespread andprolonged dearth—is amongst the pop-ulation of the town. Within the pantfortnight the number of cases ot thetnalady has been doubled; and in thohistory of the outbreak throughout, sofor as we havo as yut ascertained theparticulars, is most sinifioaut. of thefuture. In July, one or two instancesoiF true typhus were recorded. I Au-gust ei^ht oases occurred. In Septeniher, upwards of forty were registeredin October, fifty-one. Now the num-ber has reached (ii not exceeded) 140.It is evident from the figures that theactivity of the disease is steadily be-coming greater and its sphere of ac-llou wider, and sooner or later thetime must come, if human help be pow-less or too long delayed to stave offthe disaster, when, from the results ofinanition, tho famine-stricken popula-tion will become as apt to receive andpropagate th o deadly infection as tin-der to roceiVp and propagate ilame."

A NEW WAY TO COOK BKEF.—Whenyou get h«!d of a good thing, it is wellto "communicate." Having learnedthis method of cooking beef within ufew joars, we find it so much the bestway that no week elapses without ameal of beei steaming on our table.

To steam beef procure a cast ironpot, of largo dimensions, having at thebottom a shoulder which is found inmost large iron pots, at the point wherethe diameter is diminished to fit thehole in tho stove. Across this hole yonplace some pieces of shingle ; then fillup the pot to the shingles with wateradding a few piecos of lemon peel or alittle mace if you please; place themeat upon the shingles; cocer up tightwith a fitted tin cover; place over ahot fire and wail till done-, You mustbe careiul to add water occasionally ;for if it should all boil away, of coursethe gravy would bo burned, and theflavor of the meat injured. When fin-ished the bottom of the pot contains alarge quantity of most excellent gravy,which, of course, must be thickenedand seasoned.

A rump oi beef, or a shoulder, formsan excellent piece to operate on. Mut-ton is also fiue. Try it.— Country Genileman.

JE jlf" Jim never made n joke inhis life, yet no man had more made athis expense. On one occasion, whilea candidate foi Congress, he was ma-king a speech in a country school-houseto an audience of country farmers whowere as a general rule, very attentivelisteners. Jce Q , however, formedan exception. Ho had been partakingrathor liberally of whiskey-straight,tinder the influence of ivhich, his com-ments, made in a tone rather louderthan a stage-whisper, were exceedinglyannoying to the speaker. Jim pro-pared for his grand effort. " Myfriends said he I am glad to see aroundme to-night the hardy yeomanry of theland, foi I love the agricultural inter-ests of the country; and well may Ilove them, my fellow citizens, for I wasborn a farmer—the happiest days ofmy youth were spent in the peacefulavocations of a son of the soil. If Imay be allowed to use a figurative ex-pression, my friends I may say 1 wasrais'd between two rows of corn." " Apumpkin, by thunder ! exclaimed theinebriated Joe.

How TO DRESS, FOR SKATIXO.—ANew York paper, in an article on "bowto dress for skating," says :

Tho English ladies' dress, worn HOmuch at present, is well adapted forskating. It includes a rather tightdressi, not reaching below the ancles,which are hidden by laced up boots—tight cloak, and the pcrk-pio hat withits jaunty feather. A woman skatingin a " sky scraper " bonnet is a shock-ing inconsistency, and she appears asmuch out ol placo with such an articlesOQ her bead as would a lady on horse-back. Ladies havo riding habits,which they can we;ir only on horse-back, and they should also have fcku-ting dresses which they would expectto wear only " on the ic?." As to theextra expense, that is very slight; be-cause a stout serviceable dress wouldlast several seasons, while ihe ordinarydress, with its long skirts aid wiue ex-panso of eriaoline, is sure to sufferfrom the collisions inevitable on a skating pond : and a lady skater in ordi-nary costume generally finds some workior her noodlo before her evening orafternoon on skates is over.
