The Central Committee have issued
their call for Democratic Convention, at
Des Moines. on the 18th Of July. This
will meet with general appreciation among
Democrats. However desirable it might
be in some respects, TO messurably lose
sight Of party during the present struggle,
yet such thing is almost impossible in
this State. The Republicans rejoicing in
the strength which eight years Of con,in-
usd power has given them, are deter.
mined to exercise that strength for the
exclusive benefit Of their own party, and
its pet leaders. That such is their deter.
mination is clearly evinced in the persist
en-. effort Of their press in this State, to
FIX supicion of disloyalty upon every
man who dares avow himself Democrat
1t is also shown IN the formation of the
Congressional Districts in such manner
as will be most conducive to the success
Of the Republican party. We don't com.
plain Of this, however, because they have
the privilege, if they choose to exercise it,
Of keeping up a partizan warfare in the
midst of graver, and more vital struggles.
If there is to be q political armistce it
should have been proclaimed by the dom,
nant party. Such proposition, coming
from Democrats, would be agaih treated
as it was treated last year, with utter con-
tempt.
There is left to the Democrats but one
course, and that is organize thoroughly
for the work of National and State reno.
vation.
To this end we should reconcile the DIFF.
ferences which have heretofore disheart.
ened, and defeated US, fully impress our
selves with the magnitude of the work De-
fore US, and approach the duties of the
hour with brave hearts, unyielding spirits,
and lofty patriotism.
1t should be remembered that ws need
the cordial co. operation, not only Of all
Democrats, but Of all conservative men
Of whatever party name, who are the IN
finching friends Of the Constitution, and
engage in this war for the only purpose of
compelling a re.acknowleds ment every.
where Of the National authority. A last.
ing combination Of all genuine Union
elements is impera.ively needed. Now is
the favorable time for effec.ing it. Let
the Democratic party be the instrument
through which such o com bination is made
We hope that moderation, wisdom and
comprehensive patriotism will ds,in guish

The Doctors in the forenoon dress all
the wounded and prescribe for the patti
ents. The dead are removed by back
entrance. We went to Gen. Hsllecks
headquarters where we were received kind
ly by Capt. Bddle. He told US that the
hospitals were under control Of the medi.
cal directors, and admittance could only
be obtained through them. We went back
to the hospital-waited until half past
twelve o'clock. by which time an immense
crowd had assembled, representing many
different States-all anxious for admis-
sion. About two o'clock the near relatives
of patients were admitted.
The rooms are 90 or Is feet square,
with beds arranged on two sides, leaving

CAIRO, May 20.
Several newspaper correspondents from
the army before Corinth arrived to-day,
and others are expected tonight, all hav.
ing been expelled from camp by order Of
Gen. HaIleck.
That is right 1t is insteresting to read
a truthful, graphic description Of great
battle, but SO far the correspondents con-
nected with our Western Army have
proved themselves public nuisanees, and
positive evils. They seem to have had
but one object in view, and tina. vas to
make certain men great Generals, and
certain troops great heroes. Truthfulness,
Justice seem lot to have been elements in
their composition. Yet these men, without
military skill themselves, have arrogated
to themselves tie right OF making, and
unmaking regulations. Without personal
knowledge Of the movements upon the
battle field they have presumed to praise
and censure, heroize and disgrace regi-
ments to suit their own fancy. and their
own readers. As All Towan we have
right to complain of their injustice. Jus.
tics to our brave troops requires that
all correspondents should be excluded
from the battle field, or if admitted that
they should be held strictly responsible
for the truthfulness, and fairness of their
statements. Gen. HALLEcK has wisely
adopted the policy of exclusion. Here
after the reputation af our soldiers will be
where it belongs-iu the keeping of their
Generals.
