THE LATE BATTLES.

IhE SPOILSs
From every side we hear that the spoils
left by Hookor's army exceed those on auy.
previous battlefield, not excepting the en- :
gagements around Richmond. Not only
an immense number of small arms-vari
ously estimated from 10000 to $4,000
but an almost infinite quantity of over
coats, knaPsacks, caps and blankets. An
idea of the spoils may be gathered from the
statement made to US by an artillery officer
IN regard to the men of his battery. He
says that the country is so stFewn with
blankets, &c. that his men in marching
IRON one field to another, since the late
battles, have never numbered themselves
With anything, being satisfiedthat wherever
they may camp for the night plenty of
blankets and overcoats will be found.
snail these things be gathered up, or thrown
away, left to rot, or be collected by ne
groes and citizens, who, after ali the
trouble of getting them together, are TO be
lnsulted for so dOing2 We trust most sim
cerely that Quartermaster Myers will show
proper efficiencyi in this important matter.
THE WOUNDED.
The worst wounded come in last. Let
our citizens remember this. At CHIMNEY e
matters have not been as well managed as
they ought to have been. There seems to
have been no head there. We hear of a
large train of wounded, crowded inside and
out, remaining there the whole aight in the
rain, when the track was open all the way
to Richmond. This is too bad.

OUR DEAD HERO. l-W


Since the death of Washington, no SINH.
lar event has so profoundly and sorrewful.
ly impressed the people of Virginia as the
death of Jackson. The surprise and adj
miration with which his earlier feats in tba
war were regarded had long since ripened
into cordial gratitude for his services.
beundless confidence in his capacity. en-
thuslastic affection for his person, and sim
cere Venerattou for his character. They
had come, too, to regard him as one of
those men of destiny who have a mission
to fulfill, and who bear charmed life
The Providence on which he SO firmly re-
lied had seemed to shield him from harm.
aud there was a sort of superstitious faith
that he would pass uuscathed thropph all
dangers, to theend. They were not, there
fore, prepared for the cruel mischance that
struck him down, and still less for the fatal
result which has so speedily followed
There is not one loyal heart in all this
Commonwealth-noto one in all the Con.
federacy, that has not, or will not, sicken
and sink with grief at his fall. Were it
possible to restore him, We believe there
are thousands who would give their own
lives to ransom him from the captivity of
death.
For all this love for him living and all
this grief for him dead, there was reason
enough; for in the great struggle which
now engages hearts aud hands, he was
himself power equal to many regiments
OF armed men. He had thrown into il the
energies of mighty spirit, the resources OF
a great intellect. What others did or at
tempted from impulses ofambition, patriot
ism, or sense of duty, be did from compul-
sion. of conscience, and a revsreutial con.
vtetion of obligation to his Maker. He did
It with all the strength of mind, soul and
body. So actuated, he thought not off
sequences to himself, of dangers 10 be en-.
eouptered, or glory to be won-and SO
acting, he left nothing undone that was
possible of accomplishment.
There is no need now to rehearse his
deeds they are fresh in the memories oil
all. But, memorable as those deeds are
and destined to become lessons for miIitary
students for long ages to come, it was moi
perhaps so much tVhat, in his briefs bal
crowded career, he accomplished, as the
maaner IN which he did whatever most
elneNlt 1eat lay before, aud the ability
ne thus manifested for more arduous and
Llonnento9s lCl,S achievements, that explains the
wonderful growth of his fame. and will

A SIGNIFICANT Speak
ing of Mr.. Lincoln reminds me of an anec-
dote which Mr.. Chittenden of Vermont, the
Register of the Treasury, told at an outdoor
meeting the other night. He remarked that
he would tell one fact in connection with his
experience In this city, which he believed had
never yet been made public. His first visit to
Washington was perhaps an unfortunate one
He was delegate from the State of Vermont
to the peace conference which met in this city
in the month of February, 1860, upon the in
yitation of the Governor of Virginia. In that
convention he happened to form the acquain-
tance of James b. Clay, of Kentucky, Wm
A. Seldom, of Virginia tthe present rebel
Secretary OF War; Gov. Morehead of Ken
lucky (who is now fugitive, and he hoped
he would always be until he repented), and
others. His seat was near those gentlemen.
One day, while sitting near them, a servant
from Willard's Hotel entered and handed q
card to Mr.. Seddon, who sat near Mr.. Chit
tenden. He did not know what was on the
card, but it was passed around from one to tho
other in such manner that he could not help
but see what was written on it. On the card
was written these words: "Lincotn is in Wash
tngton!" He never saw such confusion made
by small piece Of card before. They looked
