WasniNgtos, D, C., Dec. 2.—The death of Major General Pope of the regular army re- moves another principal figure in an inte esting cause celebre, that for mauy years after it was apparently closed engagod pub- lic attention. When, at the second battle of Bull Run in August, 1862, the confederato armies under Leo and Stouewall Jackson outmaneuvered and beat the union army under Pope, one of the union corps commanders, General Fitz John Porter, was triea for disobedience of orders, misbe- bavior before the enemy, ete. A full conrt martial of thirteen general ofticers found bim guilty aud he was cashicred. Iuis son- teuce, As is wll known, is about tho most severo that cau be visited upou a military man, both because of the penalties and their enduring character. Ior years Porter was before congress trving to get that sentence set aside. General Logan, in the senate, was probably bis ablest and bitterest oppo nent, though it was alleged tbat Pope furnisbed much of the data upon which Logan worked. For it was tacitly admitted that Porter's relnstatewent would reflect 1n no light degree upon Popu bimself, How- ever, aftera fight, which for persistence and the length of time occupied s unpara- leled 1n the history of the army, Porter suc- ceeded. It sppears to be o sort of W, About a Celebra i eve army. am not sure that tho proprietor of Tne Bee did noY accompany the party who went from Omaha to attend the meeting of tne Soviety of the Army of the Tennessce at Des Moines, Ia., in tne autuma of 1575, Pope mado the most brilliant speech made doring the festivities of that occasiol though GranUs, on the subject of the public scnools, made n greater sensation. Grant’s was de- livered ia the afternopn at tho opera hous while Pope's was made in tho ev ing at the banguet. 1 remember that Giant, who was scated on the stage, arose, adjusted his glasses, took out @ paper and read bis speech in & tone hardly audible even to those ting in the front rows. It was said to be the longest speech he bad made up Lo that time. Pope, ou the contrary, delivered his offhand, without notes und with tine oratorical effect., terwairas gave the writer of these 1t printed copy of this speech and explained that it was a custom of his wheucver he was to make a speech to always write it out aud commit 1t to memory. Ho never. so he said, attempted to make a speech unless ab- solutely prepared @nd knew exactly what ho was going to s Belicnan, who was theu Grant's secretary of war, was also present on this occasion, and as' he antici- pated being low jited States senator the specch he was to make expected 1o bo the oration of tho bour, Wheiher it was because 1ove’s bralliant offort took tho wind out of his suils, so to remark, or on account of a severa cold, possibly by ' reason of both, the sccretary's svecch disappointed i3 friends und fell flat.
