"The Great Captain"

The rebel papers. when swelling with
success have been very fond of applying
this name to Lee, or Stonewall jackson, or
some other of their military commanders.
And it has not been Questionable, even
among loyal men, to regret that the military
ability seemed to be SO much with the
enemy.
But certainly Gen Lee is rather a small
specimen of a "great captain" He has
fought two battles at Fredericksburg, where
he was in the one he was superbly intrench-
ed, and in the other he fought with an army
whose leader had lost his self-command. In
these two battles he was the victor. Twice,
also, he has marched with great flourish of
European, and rebel, and copperhead ap
plause across the Potomac--and twice, not
to put too fine point upon it, he has been
kicked back ag ,in. While Stonewall Jack
son lived. Lee may have seemed TO be a
:. great captain" Lee was the superior in
rank, but it was Stonewall jackson who
came rushing down the Shenandoah. II
was Stonewall jackson who came hurrying
in upon the Peninsula. 1t was Stonewall
jackson who hanked Pope. And again it
was Sionewall jackson who fanked Hooker.
Since Stonewall jackson died, the history
of the " great captain" Lee begins and ends
at Gettysburg.
Jackson's exploits we're those of an ac-
tive, impetuous partisan leader. He moved
his division rapidly. He appeared at un-
expected points at unlooked-for times, and
his apps arance was always Elective But
there is nothing in Jacksons career, no vast
operations, no large command, no compre-
hensive movement, which shows The quail
ties of "a great captain" These qualities
must be sought, and will be found among
the generals Of the Union.
The operations before Vicksburg, with
the final movement of flying column from
one base to another through the enemy's
country, the. investment and capture OF the
city, indicate a military grasp and persis-
tence and fertility in General Grant of
which there has not heen trace in the ca
reer of any rebel soldier. The Louisiana
campaign of General Banks, ending in the
siege and capture of Por; Hudson, is a chap
ter of uncheckered brlliancy, as imposing
and useful as the Northern campaigns of
the "great captain Lee have been ludi-
crous and futile. The turning of the tide
of battle at Murfreesboro, and the careful
preparation which won a victory without a
struggle in the summer campaign Of Rose
Grams in Southern Tennessee, is unparalleled
in the whole military history of the rebel
lion. Against these prodigious and vital
movements,th rushes Of Jackson, rapid and
telling as they were, are but little episodes,
and The pompous performances of Lee and
! Beauregard are merely amusing. The lib
orators of the Mississippi and of Tennessee,
and the victor of Lee and his horde, are
| thus far the Z" great captains of this war

of Kentucky were not TO enjoy free cleo
ton !" also, " for weeks it has been under
stood that the cabinet regarded the support
of Mr.. Wickliffe as species Of disoyalty,
and word went forth that the democratic
candidate must be defeated;" and the Post
even pretends to see in the result threaten
ed danger to the freedom of elections in
other States. These copperheads are very
miserable. The defeat of secessionism in
Kentucky makes their heads swim, and ov-
ercomes them with shocking dreams Of that
ghastly funeral procession in which they
will be compelled to follow copperheadism
10 the grave which its remains will befoul.

LaSSitude i'm Summer.

Almost everybody is conscious of pecu-
liar lassitude in the first warm days of spring
and summer, and all generally agree in at
tribuing it TO the heat without. Many at
tempt to brace themselves by more vigor-
Gus Diet or by stimulating drinks. DIR.
Hall, of the Journal of Health, who is fer
tile in new and common sense theories,
gives novel view Of the matter in the fol-
lowing paragraphs -
"The lassitude which comes over multi
tudes of humanity with the beautiful spring,
is the result OF eating too much. There is
nothing in the spring to cause this ; for it is
soft, and balmy. and blissiul, and brings an
imalion to every living thing-man only
excepted!
"The modas operdadi is worthy of being
studied and well matured by every intelli-
gent reader. We are all kept from freez-
ing by an internal furnace. the fuel for
which is the food we eat; the living fur
mace, like that of our dwelling, requires more
fuel in the winter than in the summer.
Who has not, in considerable anger, abused
Bridget for roatsing them, by keeping up
greater fire in April than in midwinter?
and we call it perversity. But the maid
does in the cellar what the mistress does in
the dining-room she simply puts the same
amount of food in the CRATE or furnace dali
ly. The maid roasts the outside of her
mistress, while the mistress herself roasts
aer inner man she is thus between two
fires. l. it any wonder that people COM
plain of spring fever? As a remedy, Bridg-
ct opens the doors and windows, and di-
minishes the heat, while the mistress re-
sorts to tonics, and the master to bitters
alias brandy -and-water, to whet up the ap-
petite, to make the stomach call for more
fuel, instead of attending to the stomach's
instinct, in calling for less food. In all ma
ture, man is the biggest fool.
In spring be strict vegetarian, be
strict cold water man, keep clean, keep
cheerful. keep out of doors, and your spring
time will not be the sleepiness of the pig,
but win be as gleeful and as gladstone as
that of the sweetest birds OF May"

FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST %, 1868.
The Kentucky Election.

OF late, the rebellion has lost ground and
hope everywhere. The secessionists and
expected to gain something
from the recent election in Kentucky. They
felt sure of carrying that election and,
then, they would do something TO embarrass
the administration, and create a diversion
that would revive The fading hopes Of trea-
son. The democratic party of Kentucky
had in it already, or drew into it by the
force of elective affinity, all the secessionists
of the State, and all the conditional Union
men,"-all the friends and followers of
Buckner and Magoffin, with all those of
Wickliffe They nominated Wicklffe for
governor; and, so strong was their expec-
tation of success, that some of them boasted
that they would carry the State by $4,000
majority. Against them WAS arrayed the
unconditional Union party, with Judge
Bramlette as candidate for governor; and
true Union men all over the country very
naturally desired the success of this party.
The election has taken place and the tri-
umph of the unconditional Union party is
overwhelming.
II is interesting to observe how this re-
suit of the Kentucky election is taken by
the leading democratic papers in this part
of the country. OF course, the extreme
coppernead press, everywhere, is disap-
pointed and angry at this defeat Of the Ken
lucky democrats. In Ohio, and throughout
the West. it is greatly chagrined; and the
democratic papers here in New England
denounce the result. The Hartford Times
calls it triumph of aholitionism;" and,
after expressing its wrath in such headings
to the news as,-"BAYoNETs TRIUMPHANT
-FREE BALLOT SUPPRESSED" it COM
ments as follows =
Burnside established martial law over
Kentucky two or three days before the
election, and gave directions as to who might
vote. The tyranny of bayonets being thus
placed over the ballot boxes, aboltionism
had its own way. Very teao democrats Uot-
ed, as the laws of he State were set aside,
and the election was controlled entirely by
orders from Washington, through their tool,
Burnside, who was backed by large army.
Thus we find the freedom of the ballot
crushed out by the direct interference of the
military power. 1t will be SO in Maryland
and other States
Such atrocious falsehood is not creditable
to anybody but the Times was wrathful
and could not stand for tIihes. The Prov
idence Post, quite as angry as the Times,
imputes the result to an interference of the
administration in behalf of the Bramlette
ticket" and says :-@ 1t has been plain 10
US for fortnight or more, that the people

the lighter bureaus, tables, and even the
CRATE pans, and. last, kitchen pots. OF
twenty-five hundred volumes, the accumu-
lation Of thirty years, not single book was
left in the house. OF the furniture that was
too heavy to carry off, one small piece only
was left unmutilated by azes. Nearly all
the glass and much of the sash work was
destroyed. The stair banisters and marble
mantels were chopped down. All the gas
fixtures were twisted off, and most of the
water faucets. The Croton pipe was pound
ed up in the cellar, to cut off the water,
that the fire might not be extinguished, and
but for the neighbors, who, at the peril of
life, brought in buckets from their own
houses, the place would have been burned.
A piano was broken into fragments, and
even sliding doors pulled out and their PAN
els split. The lower parts of several heavy
bureaus aud portions Of several bedsteads
and tables were left in the house, and moth

OF General Lee, the rebel chief,
You all perhaps do know:
How he came North short time since, SO
To spend month or so:
But soon he found the climate warm,
Although Southern man,
And quickly hurried up his cakes,
And toddled home again.

Why don't you longer stay?
How are your friends in Maryland

"Why, General Lee" he said,
"What makes you look and stagger so7
There's whiskey in your head" sE
Not much, i think" says General Lee,

What makes me feel SO giddy, is,
I've taken too much Meade"
Cno1us-How are you, General &c.
" But you seem i'll yourself, dear JEFF,
You look quite sad enough
think while I've been gone, old Abe
Has used you rather rough"
We'll yes, he has, and that's fact,
1t makes me feel downcast,
For they've bothered us at Vicksburg
So tits GYunt-ed them at last"
Chorgs-Then how are you, jeff Davis
What is't that makes you sgh3
How ale your friends in Vicksburg,
And Mssissipp2
"Yes, Vicksburg they have got quite sure,
And Richmond soon they'll take
At Port Hudson, too, they have some Banks
fear we cannot break;
While Rosecrans, in Tennessee,
Swears he'll our army fog,
And prove if Bragg's terrier good

Since them dam'd Yankees fit
