An ApDeal to the Precedent.


The New York World say. the most
splendid army Of the world with generals
as gallant as eyer led, and soldiers as brave
as ever marched, to victory has met the
fri-btfulest disaster Of the war By Gen.
HALLEcH's orders The Army Of the Kappa
hammock was marched up against the inr-
pregnable batteries Of tie Fredericksburg
heights, brigade after brigade, division at.
ter division, one after another decimated,
thousands upon thousands slaughtered,
from day break to sunset until its ruin wss
complete, Until well nigh twenty thousand
brave and noble souls wet the Virginia hill
sides with their blood. The unhlepching
courage the dsuntless intrepiJi,y, of our
magnificent army were never more sub
timely displayed. The laundering strato-
gy, the incompetent geuerslshiT, which
hurled them to fruitless doom never
branded itself 50 consPicuously as india
criminate slaughter and murder By whole.

THAT DIsPATcH.-As there has been
considerable talk on the streets about 4
dispatch to the Keokuk press, which was
not taken nor paid for, we wish to say
that said dispatch was sent to our neigh
Dor, and not 10 US. 1t was, velearn, sent
BY 7. l. McKenny, and the charge on it
was about ten dollars. Our neighbor
thought he ~ouldn't pay that much, and
so left it on the hands of the company, to
collect Of McKepny, if they see ct.
When Capt. McKenny sent Us tele-
gram, some days ago, We seek il although
the charge was sl0, and published it.
But owl neighbor, Who saunts hinself o.
his enterprise, and VAS 90 keen 10 show
the world how 70 get and publish news,
contents himself with gassing about "four
dollar dispatches, which cost him moth
ing. He finds it much easier to gas than
to pay money, and was not unwilling 70
take and publish dispatch from NcKinsy
to his mother, which cost her Eve or six
dollars. Such enterprise il amazing!
