Strengthening Nscn.

1t is time that our troops were kept from be-
ing slaughtered through the rHefiiciency of their
commanders. The heart will bleed as it reads
the accoun. Of the Vienna slaughter in to days
paper, and the following telegraphic dispatch
will show where the blame belongs
A strict examination OF the causes Of the la
mentable affair at Vienna, has resulted in the
exculparion al the engineer of the train which
took up the Ohio troops. The responsibility OF
the blunder, which resulted so sas,erously for
our troops, rests upon General Schenck.
Every patriot and lover Of his country would
think that after the slaughters at Bethel and
Vienna, through the ineompetency OF broken
down politicians who have been appointed to
important military positions, them kind ofap-
apartments would cease being made. But we
regret to say that such is not the fact. Imme
dately after this last slaughter, the war depart
ment issued an order to organize large num-
ber of new regimenisain the regular army
And who do you suppose, reader, arc to be Of
fcers in these regiments? Men with military
educations? No, with but few exceptions
Who then? A lot of sauirts, who have only
been known as one horse republican politicians,

ing the battles OF their country, and dong all
in their power to sustain the Constitution and
laws OF the u. s. We have done all in our
power to urge men to help put down rebellion,
by enlisting 10 the service Of their country; but
iftbese men are to be slaughtered as they were
at Vienna and Bethel by having broken down
politicians to command them, when there are
an abundance Of good men with military edu
cations, who are capable Of taking command,
we shall not urge them any longer to enlist
III we aid, we should be held accountable 10 the
bar Of God, if they should be slaughtered thro'
the inefRciency Of incompetent officers, Or their
slaughter. IL thls administration cares noth-
ing more for the lives of the brave men who
are fighting the battles Of their country than
they have shown in large number o: their mil.
itary appointments, let them get the men for
these squirts toscommand. the best they can
Where men have good, competent and faithful
officers, we love to see them enlisted in the SER
vice OF their country. But where these brave
men are commanded by inefficient officers, onr
heart bleeds to think that they are to be
slaughtered as they were at Bethel and Vienna

6Tsoms ofoir Democratic friends are il

Some ofoir Democratic friends are in-
,clined to have very little sympathy with the
present. administration, because they say the
Republicans opposed the war Of 1872 and the
Mexican war; and that il Douglas were Presi
dent to day, with the present rebellion on his
hands they wo'd oppose him ia his efforts to sup
press il. Weare not prepared to say how far
or how much Of this latter chargeis true. But
grant that it 10 all trueand that does not absolye
Democrats from their daty. If Republicans
have no patriot SIN. that is no reason why Dem.
ocrats should not have any. 1fAboltionists
place the nigger above the integrity and the
highest interests of the country, that does not
excuse Democrats from sustaining the govern
inent. We have always been in iavor OF the
Union and II would not do now to surrender it
into the hands Of the traitors who threaten its
destruction Mr.. Lincoln is bound by his oath
to sustain the laws, and the same oath compes

The editor OF the Cincinnati Commercial, Re-
publican, now in Washington, thus characteri-
zes the military appointments OF the President:
"a great many Of those appointed are first
class Suuirts. There are few good appoint
ments, but merit has not been recognized"
The Cincinnati Times, Republican, under the
head OF "More Weak Appointments" has the
following:
"'rhe telegraph gives another ba ch of wretch

The injuries such appointments do are two,
fold: They expose the troops to all the calami.
ties that almost invariably attend the lead o
inexperienced and incompetent leaders, and
they are just to the meriorious officers in the
regular service who have been emuloas Of dis

Notwithstanding the suggestion Of Repubii
can paper in Chicago that the Governor OF Lii
