The Slain Heroes.

Gen. Stevens, who was killed in a recent
engagement south of the Potomac, was ex-
Governor Stevens of WASHINGTON Territory,
and more recently in command of brigade
on the South Carolina coast He was fearless
and gallant officer. ~
Gen. Kearney, who was killed on Monday,
was the officer for whom the rebels had such
great fear during the campaign on the PENN
sula. They called him ''the one-armed devil"
He was the bravest of the brave and died
hero '-i-> fat.A. ayf. SE4 e.T' tsn
Gen. Taylor, who was killed last week, was
a New Jersey man, served with honor in the
Mexican war, where he was promoted Colo
mel. He raised a regiment in New Jersey
when the present war broke out, and has
been in McClellan's sarmy through all it's
trials. He was made Brigadier General
while on the Peninsula. He had the reputa-
ton ofbeing the most thorough disciplinarian
in the army. He fell at the head of his brig
ade near Bull Run on Saturday
Col. Fletcher Webster, who was k lied at
the head of his regiment last week, in Vir-
ginia, was the eldest and sole surviving son
of Daniel Webster, the great statesman, and
was born at Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
He had but little political ambition, and de-
clined to become candidate for popular hon.
ors. He was about fifty years of age, and
leaves wife and children. There is now no
child left of the immortal statesman, as his
daughter, Mrs. Appleton, died some years,
ago, and the younger son died in the u. S.
service in the Mexican war. T. =, 10.

Iowa State Fair,

The Executive Committee of the State So
eiety have nearly completed their preparations
for the coming annual fair, to be held at the
city Of Dubuque, commencing on the S0th of
September and holding four days. Thre c
hundred and fifty covered stalls, and all other
fixtures in keeping, are now nearly ready,
within the city limits, five minutes walk from
the postoffice. The prize list is liberal. the
sweepstake premiums ranging from $50 to
500. Wisconsin, Illinois and Missouri will
neither of them hold any fair this year, hence
it is expected that the Iowa fair will get a
good lift from those States. Railroads and
steamboats, will carry passengers at half fare
and stock and articles free Further informa-
ton may be had of the Executive Committee,

president of the society DR. q. Sprague of

ideality protested again and again against
the madness and weakness which refused the
aid of loyal citizen because his complexion
is swarthier than that Of traitor in arms.
I protest against the exclusion of the free
black men of the North from share in the
work of destroying the rebellion. They enjoy
the immunities of citizenship; why should
they be exempted from its correlative liabili-
