high regard for him. l can not express
my regret at not having seen him before
he left us forever He had some faults
as who has not?-but no great ones,
and it was impossible not to admire and
love him. His character was a noble
one. He had sincere and earnest de-
sire for the good of the country, and in
the exercise of that desire he was con-
stantly looking to the future and cousid-
ering the ultimate result of present or
proposed policy. Last summer and fall,
when the Administration showed de-
cided leauings towards emancipation,
the question was of course much dis
cussed, and by none more thoroughly
than Jim. He and | used to have long
talks about the war and kindred topics.

much discouraged at the apparently re-

short time Our troops are all anxious
for demonstration.
Gen. Logan, with his forces, opposite
what is called Fort Hill, was fast beat
ing down the earthworks, and rendering
them useless as protection to the reotl
artillery.
On the 18th the rebels opened fire up
on McClernandS position with briskness.
Casualties on our side occurred most
ly in rife-pits.
Gen. John Z. Smiths divisian was
busily engaged with thirteen inch NOR
tar in his front; the said mortar having
caused some dissatisfaction among our
men, the shells from which coming rath-
err nearer than was exactly comfortable.
Your correspondent, Waldo, slept that
night at Gen. Logan's headquarters, and
was lulled to siumber by whistling bullets
from the rebel sharpshooters. Gen. Lo-
gan was much exposed. He habitually
exposes himself rather more than some
think expedient or necessary. On the
18th the enemy expended five hundred
pound Of powder and over twenty-five
hundred pounds of iron in the shape of
shot and she'll upon Logan's force alone.
Rebel hospitals are largely on the in
increase, and hardly day passed but
that new red flags were seen flying over
houses in the city. This was particular
ly observed from General Hills position
1t is thought, however, that this may be
ruse to keep our gunners from firing
upon the city. A red flag was even seen
flying from one of their forts, from an
embrasure in which heavy gun was
dealing out death to Union soldiers.
The 18th Illinois regiment on the 18th
captured fourteen rebel prisoners who
we're trying to make their way through
our lines. All censure General Pember-
ton heartily. as do all prisoners taken
lately. They say that fued now exist
ing between the General in command
and General Bowen is daily growing more
bitter
On the morning of the 18th the rebe
colors were flying for the first time over
Fort Hill They were three times sho
down by our sharpshooters.

Bay The State Sentinel has had an
other spasm, caused by the discovery
of the fact that Governor Morton has
been to New York to try to arrange for
the payment of the interest on the State
debt and save the credit of the State,
and promote the welfare of the people.
This IS the very thing the State Seett-
sel and its masters, Hendricks, Voor-
bees, Perkins and Hanna dreaded.
Their determination was to prevent
the payment of the July interest, destroy
the credit of the State, burden the citi-
zens with new levies of taxes, bring the
State and her people into disrepute, and
then make of it political capital to lie
their way into Office.
But Governor Morton is likely to con-
found their plans and hence they open
their batteries of Billingsgate upon him.
1t is not democratic or constitutional
to pay debts either State or personal, in
the estimation of this brotherhood The
howl of the Sentinel is much after the
style of lost spirit. Let it howl
GoING THE GRAND RoUHDs.-Since the
order suppressing the Chicago Times
was revoked, it has rallied against TIE
Government, misrepresented the move
ments Of our armies, and labored to en-
courage the rebels and discourage the
friends of the Government, with ma
levolence and venom never equalled.
Its Washington correspondence, which
is written in its back office, is tissue of
the most unmitigated falsehoods, but is
eagerly copied by the State Sentinel,
Sullivan Democrat, Vincennes Sun, and
Cincinnati Enquirer, and sent forth to
the ignorant masses, to poison their
minds and discourage their hearts
The Richmond papers have never said
half as bitter things against the Federal
Government or the people of the North
as has the Times and its traitorous ad
juncts, and the publication of the Rich
mond Examiner, Dispatch, or Whig in
Chicago would not do the one-thouzandtt
part of the injury to the Union cause
that is done By the Times That the
writer of the Times Washington CORES
pondence is a traitor no one doubts; anC
if he does indeed write from Washing
ton, as his letters purport, he is no doub
a spy in the employ of JEFF. Davis O.
Gen. Lee.
No other Government On earth would
tolerate such treason uttered in on
midst-nO other country has ever pro
duced so execrable traitor. A day O
retribution will come.
