Qaestioas Well Put.

The gCn boat correspondent Of the
Chicago Times, writing from the viciu.
ity Of Island No. 10, very properly
puts series of questions to the over
anxious and highly impatient abolition
,s,s who stay at home and fad fault
with the conduct of the war. Read:
"And now let me ask the dear, de
|ightfuI," niger loving abolition on L
Richmond patty in this country, who
are go impatient Of delay and who. blood
less themselves are yet thirs,iog TO-
blood, clamoring like hounds because
our armies do not rush into the jaws OF
destruction and death, what do the,
know about Island No. 10? What &c
they know about the river between Cairo
ard Island No. 10? What do they
know about the 800 miles of tortuous,
trcacherous, shifting river below lsland
! No. lOl What have they known OF
tie strength of the enemy's position
and resources SO far during the war |!
What do they know about them now.
Ii General Mcclellan should have take,
Manassas moths ago, onght not Com
modore Foote to have taken Island No.
10 days ago? Ought be not TO run
down close alongside OF their batteries
and silence themp And ought not Gen.
Pope, with his army, to swim up the
Mississippi, against current OF SIX
miles an hour, and attack them 10 the''
intrenchments? DO they think there
are any more places like Island No 70
in the Mississippi river, and do they be-
lieve they will be fortified, and, il they
are, should we pay any attention to
their batteries or run along by them ?
Now these are pertinent questions, and
much inclined as the abolitionists may
be to turn up their noses at them, I will
venture the assertion that there is not
score Of editors belonging to that per
suasion in the entire country that cao
take them up in rotation and satisfy an
intelligent reader that they are posted
respecting them, and yet they discuss
learned military movements of which
they are profoundly ignorant and have
as little idea OF as gunpowder has Of
god!insss.

GEN. BURNsIDE's UpERArIoNs.-Gen
Bnrnsides operations along the coast Of
North Carolina have been attended with
the most glorious results. He has not
struck blow that has not told nobly
for the Union. His greatest and only
reverses we're met with when he fought
the battle with the contractors. For q
while it seemed as though the scoun-
drels would get the upper hand, and in-
decd they did effect the wreck Of sever.
al Of the Generals vessels, and the loss
ola large quantity of valuable military
stores and equipage, but be overcauc
all that, and has gained point after point
and fort 6cation after fertilization, until
he has almost completely conquered the
entire eastern portion Of that State. In.
decd the enemy has no more strong
holds left in that section for him to con-
quer. lie has followed out most i'm
plicitly the instructions Of Gen. McCleI-
Ian, and in SO doing has achieved honors
for himself and country Of which any
man might re proud.

tho conservative school, considers the
capture of Ncwbcrn, N. c., by General

QUE IOWA TROOPS.

Our brave Iowa troops are cha'leng'
ing The admiration Of tie entire coun-
try, and for that matter the entire CIVIL
ICED world. Their deeds Of vslor have
tbus far ou.shone al competitors for
military glory. This has been proven
At Wilson's Creek, At Blue Mills, Bel
mont, Fort Douclson and Pea k'dge.
Their honors are being sounded io'th
by the press Of the entire country.
Their acts all the way through have
been entitled to the highest praise, and
it makes us proud to notice tho terms
of admiration and high praise in which
the leading papers Of the country speak
Of them. All the Western troops have
done we'll, but it is conceded now that
those Of Iowa are richly entitled to the
first honors. The Philadelphia Inqui-
rsr, in speaking Of the fearful assault Ct
Van Dorn's brigade, at the battle OF
Pea Ridge, and bis obstinate efforts,
with overwhelming odds, to obtain Gen.
Curtis rear, compares the resistance
with which the Iowa boys for ten long
hours witbetood the incessant storm Of
shot aud shell and the furious charges
Of rebel cavalry, to "a rock built wall,
impregnable at points. So 1t was.
Through all these bloody hours there
our brave men stood, and, with degree
of courage and bravery that would
astonish the seasoned veterans Of The
old world, held tho vastly superior
forces in chcck-defJ ing all odds and
adverse circumstances. The deeds Of
the nob'e 4th and 9th on that occasion,
might not have been as brilliant as that
OF the "a at Fort Donelson, but they
were not particle the less mcrtorious
or praise worthy. The honors arc
equal. In every engagement where our
men have taken part they have surely
stood ike "rock built wall" or rushed
forward with all the impetuosity and
resist;ess force Of full grown avalanche,
Carrying all before them. Well may
the enemy fear our Iowa soldiers, tor
wherever they met them they have met
real walking ,hunderbolts, Who knew no
such word as fail. Their every act
challenges our lmiration, and as they
pluck fresh honors on new fields, VIC
cannot resist the temptation to give
them the proper credit.

Wendell Phillips was rotten-egged a.
Cincinnati, while attempting to lecture
there. The arrant traitor opened his
lecture by declaring to the Union low
iog Cincinnat;sps that he was IN "A6o-
At.osise and a disunionist." This was
nc news to them, Of course, but the idea
of having black hearted traitor stand
up in their midst and proclaim it in their
face and eyes was beyond human endo-
rance. Served him right. The man
who boasts that he has 4" laborcd nine
teen years to take nineteen States out
Of the Union" and exultingly declares,
II have cursed the Obnstitxt;on and
the Union, and haze endeavored to
break them, and thank God they are
broken" deserves no better fate than
to be rotteu-egged by all Union loving
citizens. The Chicago Times recon-
mends that Phillips lecture be closed
by the following abolition Ode" to the

The suggestion is highly appropriate
