We now hayo daily mail to Keokuk by

These river mails are a great humbuE-
There is not enough postos" collected from
them all to pay for one trip-and 1t requires
four route agents to take charge Of the mails.
During the last administration we exposed

they we're pretty much ended But it seems

Tho great trouble with sewing machines, thus
far, has been that those which are good for any

Tho news Of the loss Of III. shocked
the nation. St Clair was the object
universal condemnation. Cries of cow
ardice, imbecility, and treason filled the
land A committee of Congress were
appointed to investigate the matter, and
like grand jury they collected evidence
only against himon the popular charges.
In l77S he was court martialed, aud
after trial of several weeks duration,
he was unanimously acquitted of each
and every charge with the highest honor"
by court of which Gen. Lincoln was
President, Looking back from our
times to the memorable campaign
of l777, we do not wonder at ST. ClaiFs
temporary loss of popularity, so general
and grossly wrong was the estimate of the
strength of the forts and the resources
under his command,
Our esteem for ST. Clair has been
much increased by an investigation into
the details of his history; while aston
ished and grieved we deplore the appa-
rent necessity or military exigency which
must have controlled in the appointment
to Brigadier Generalship of such stu
pid or false Frenchman as De Roche
Fermoy.

NEGRO SOLDIERS Gen. Lew. Wallace
in his Cincinnati speech, said
''In times of great excitement, like the
present, simple prejudice may do an
immense amount of evil. A creased car
fridge produced the Sepoy rebellion ;
but Notwithstanding all these prejudices
that have been instilled into the minds of
some of our boys, when our troops are
worn out with fighting against superior
forces, when outnumbered and cut to
pieces, with every hope gone and only
destruction staring them in the face, then
| say, if white men should happen to
hear the sweet music of the rife, even
though in niger hands, they would like
it amazingly, and be wonderfully glad Of
it."
