After the smoke and dust of an inclo-
rieus campaign have rolled away from
the theatre of war, it is not difficult To
see how disastera might have been pre-.
vented d success secured. We should
be careful, however, in arraisning the
acts OF military commanders at particular
crises, not to judge Of them by state oi
facts which the parties held responsible
had no means of ascertaining at the time,
although 1t became palpable enough when
the evil vas past remedy. We have only
TO glance at some Of the great battles
which have decided the fate of empires
to learn how often the best plans are rem.

against which no foresight can guard -
From the defeat of Pompey at Pharsalia
to the repulse of Burnside at Fredericks
burg, there have bee o few military disas-
ters that history does not show might
have been avoided, or converted into VIC
tories. But, unfor'u nately, history is too
apt. as it throws blaze of light on all the
circumstances bearing upon the event, TO
forget that only portion of them could
by any possibility have been foreseen BY
the defeated party. BY all the rules Of

FRIDAY, Ma / 10.

1t is an undertaking custom with the
Tory prints to stigmatize Keokuk a. the
"Mob City," because q number of conva.
descent soldiers in that city destroyed the
printing material of the Constitution Of.
fee. Union men have been character
lied as Mobocrats, and the Democratic
party has been held vi as a model of per-
lection in it's obedience to law and order.
Let us see how the balance sheet stands.
A few days since 500 or GOO Copperhead
residents of Montgomery county, Ohio,
attacked the Republican newspaper Office
1T Dayton, destroyed the printing mate
rial. and burned the building. The Of
fee of the Dayton Empire, Valandigham'
organ, was converted into an offensive ar
sensl with which to menace and kill the
Uuionists Of that city. Not satisfied with
these acts of atrocious vandalism, the
Copperhead mob cut The telegraph wires,
and destroyed bridges aud portion OF
the railroad track between Cincinnati and
Dayton.
These acts were not committed by sol.
dicrs who had suffered everything but
death at the hands of rebels and Northern
Traitors. They were not committed by
men who had periled their all in defense
of cause which has been sillfed and
denounced by Rebels aud Tories alike
They were not committed by men, who,
as defenders Of the old flag, and as suffer
ers in our hospitals had been eoaded to
madness by the coarse, reasonable as
sauits of Rebel sheets in the North. The
Union ofhce at Dayton was given over to
devouring flames 10y band of miscreants
who have never lifted finger 10 this war
save to assail the Government, and the
property and lives of Union citizens
They are the proselyles of Northern
Traitor. They are practically enforcing
his teachings by lighting Tie incendiary's
torch, and stirring up the flames of civil
war in the North. Rebel mobs at Detroit,
at Dayton, at Danville, and at Winterset
in our own Safe, admonish US that the
Unionists Of the North have no mercy TO
expect from tie brutal and vindictive en-
emies of The Government Dcs Moines

The Camden Cemetery.

The work of laying Oft and bcautfying our
graveyard is being vigorously prosecuted under
the intelligent and active direction of Mr..
Crammond. We have, once before, noticed
the call made upon the subscribers for this
work, to pay up their subscriptions, in order
that it may be dono as speedily and elegantly
as possible. Not only to those who have con-
tributed and are del"quents but to those who
have not given anything, we would make an
earnest appeal. Their failure to do so, we
know, can only be the result Of negligence and
inattention-they have not thought of it, and
consequently have not contributed their mite.
The labor now being performed, is one which
all desire to see, and which, we doubt not, all
arc willing to forward We earnestly hope,
therefore, that every one who has not already
contributed will make it special point to do
SO. Ii is the labor of loving hands adorning
and Leautifying that city of the dead" in
which all are deeply interested by the tender
est and the strongest ties. Mr.. r. M. KENNEDY
will receive all contributions for that noble
work.

lANKEE VERSION OF TIE French AcTIoN
ABOUT THE CONFEDERATE RAMs.-A telegram
from Washington, dated the 9Th instant. saws:
The authorization which was granted by tho
French Government to Mr. Amman for building
ard arming ships of war at Nantz and Bor
deauX, was obtained by him on the false pre-
tenccs that they were to be sold to the Chinese
Government, and to bc used in the waters of
China.
1t was not known nor suspected that these
vessels were designed for the rebels of the
United States. Information of that DESIGN
was obtained by this Government only short
time ago, and the French Governmcn mt prompt
ly revoked the authorization when that infor-
nation was laid before the Emperor.
justice to France requires that this state
mcnt should be made to correct msapprehrn-
sions on subject in regard to which France
has acted with good faith towards the United
States.
GENERAL MEADEs OFFICIAL REpoRr OF
THE BATTLE CT GETTYsBURG.- Meade's
Official report of the battle of Gettysburg was
made public in the North on the !lth. He
assigns as reason for the delay in making it.
the failure of receiving the reports of several
of the corps and division commanders who
were severel&s~ounded in battle. 1t occupies
two columns, in small type, in the New York
Times. Meade gives the grand result as fol-
lows:
The result Of the campaign may be briefly
stated in the defeat of the enemy at Gettys-
burg, his compulsory evacuation of Pennsyl-
vania and Maryland, and his withdrawal from
the upper valley of the Shenandoah; and in
the capture Of three guns, forty-onc standards,
and l3,62l prisoners; 24,97s small arms were
collected on the battlefield. Our own losses
were very severe, amounting, as will be seen
by the accompanying return, to 1884 killed,
l3,7o7 wounded, and 6,643 missing, in all
23,ls6.
On DIT.-It is stated that Miss Slidell, the
daughter of the rebel Ambassador, is shortly
to be married to M. Erlanger, the Confederate
loan contractor.
