The doubts a. to the death Of Gen. Philip
Kearney seem to be set at rest. In the contest
Of Monday, that gallant officer, always fOrgetful
Of his own safety, fell MORALLY wounded while
leading his men into action and the country
has to deplore the loss of one of its most accon.
plished, experienced and snterprising officers
Gen. Kearney was peculiarly professional sol.
der. To thorough elementary training in the
art Of war, he had added military authorities,
With reference 70 every department. of the pro.
fession. These studies had been the business of
his life; and to give them experimental value,
he served throughout the Mexican war, it ia
needless to say with the highest distinction, and
participated in the Algerian cam.
paigns, and yet more recently in the war Of Ital-
ian liberation. From the leading French Gene.
rails Of the time he has received testimonials Of
the most fattering description, attesting his in.
trepidity and skill Had his bravery been At.
tempered With the slighest dash Of personal pru.
dence, career 90 splendid and 30 promising
would not have been 90 untimely ended.
The death of Gen. Isaac Stevens will also be
very sensibly felt. Although after leaving West
Point, and serving briefly in the army, he choose
to abandon the profession Of arms, and descend
to the arena of partisan politics. Gen. Stevens
forgot nothing he had learned: and gifted with
profound sagacity and quickness of apprehension
he resumed the sword when the instruction
broke out With more than ordinary preparation
for effective usefulness. In the earlier and more
important transactions at Port Royal, General
Stevens played conspicuous and creditable part /;
and was no less characterized BY judidicous self
control whea more recently obliged to witness
the experiments upon the negro instituted by
Gen. neutrality-suspicious. which the judgment
of Gen. Stevens strongly reprObated. OF the
part taken by the deceased in the unfortunate
affair Of James Island, it 10 now improper to
speak. This only can be said: that whatever
injurious suggestions Of cowardice associated
themselves with his name in connection with
that affair, must be forever cancelled and silenced
BY the dauutless bravery Of the man on his last
battlefield. He fell victim to his too jealous
gallangy.
The people have too few servants Of skill, and
discretion and zeal to spare any without bitter
regret. The two just lost are of the few. and
must be mourned deeply and earnestly.-N =.
