two men, the frst editor OF tho Herald and

less admiraiion and sorrow for Stone wall Jsck-

The afectstion will fail very short Of its de-
sign. II can neither magnify the losa oil the
ConIederates intoea greater disaster than it

Of the Nor them mind. All the world will
innate the loss Of Jackson ct its true standard.

Concerning the effort to establish repute
for honest Jnsgnauimity. it will prove fruit
less. Nobody believes a Yankee to posseas
much either of honesty or beuevolence. Char

StonewaM Jackson's career forces rcspec;
and admiration from all men. 1t was SO splen.
did and SO succcaeful that no ene can sully it,
or decry its glory. The expressions Of adlnira
ton, therefore are as matters of course. No
man weuid write himself down an ass by re
susing to r, cognize the genius Of Stoncwali
jackson.
These two Yankee newspaper editors will
be followed by many others. and dsubt!eas in

Such springs to catch wood cocks CANNOT catch
us. We ilout them even as they fout the
memory Of the iiiustri0us dead.
