late Of the Camel Speculation.

The lot OF Government eamels, thirty
nine in number, which have been kept
in Southern California ever since the
reign of James Buchanan, were sold AT At
auction at Benicia last week at rom S59
TO S55 each, in greebacks. These ami
mails. on the road to Benicia from Los
Angeles, stamped nearly every horse and
mule thew met, and after their sale at
Benicia stamped all the four legged live
stock in the place, running up a pretty
handsome bill of damages The original
cost Of the animals, landed in America,
was some s., 600 each, and the cost OF
bringing them from Los Aneglos, for sale
was only about three times as much as
they realized under the hammer.
IL Mr.. Lincoln had engaged in Buch-
anan's camel speculation, how Cox,
Fernando Wood, Voorhees,, Crovens, 81
id oane genus, would have made the
halls Of Congress resound with the villsi-
nous swidling Of the Republicans. But
Il was the work Of Buchanan and his
Southern secession friends, and not a
word of complaint comes from the lips
of these "star" conservatives. The NOR
al Of this is that if President belives
that Il is right to buy and sell men and
women, and to help slayehanters catch
their renaways, the Conservative leaders
will allow him TO swindle the public
treasury without uttering one word o.
complaint. Utah war, for example, wa
by far the most extavagsnt war evei
waged BY our Government. And ye
the politicians whom appIauded Buchan
an the traitor, heap upon Mr.. Lincolr
every term Of reproach.

B1- A Correspondence of the New
York Herald, gives the following ac-
count Of the exploit OF a Major General
Daniel Z. Siokles, who was in the battle
OF Resaea without u command:
I'm the prosecution OF the mission to
which he is assigned by the President,
General Sickles was present with the
army during these battles. He was in
the saddle, on both days, from morning
till night and was everywhere conspic.
uous where the fighting was the hardest,
until, finally he was cautioned by General
Hooker in regard to the reckless expos
ure of himself Dan you must go back;
we want TO save that other leg OF yours,
demonstrated Hooker But Sickles
couldn't see it, Where soldiers were
perilling their lives for the country, he
ehoseto share their dangers. He was
frequently applauded and cheered by the
troops, as be road along the lines
Who's that4 one would ask. That 5
Dan Sickles, the man that saved the
army at Chancellorsvilla or, That's Bully
Sickles, of Gettysburg The General
staff volunteered their services and
were actively employed on Hooker and
Butterield's stats.

THE RBD RIVER CHAMPAIGx-The
New Orleans Delta, Of the 18th, has the
following in reference to the recent
movements Of Banks, and we presume
It is as favorable account Of ths unfortn-
nate campaign as the friends of that
General can give:
We are sorry 10 see croakers so abun-
daut, and 10 find the Northern press so
ready at finding fault with the Red river
campaign, Of which .key really know
but very little. II Is too much our habit
to make success the test Of merit. We
award more honor to the General who,
with thousand men, conquers a hum
bred, than to the leader who with hun
dred men, makes brave but unsuccess-
full resistance to q thousand. IL is very
easy to sit in comfortable arm chair,
and with nicely tinted map, show how
campaigns should be planned and battles
fought, but II is not so easy to take seat
in the saddle and conduct the operations.
Let hose who assert that Gen. Banks
was conquered in detail, and that he
ought to have had hisswhole army in adj
vance, tell us where the roads we're to
be found. With but one passable road
how could he do more than bring up brig
AIDES as fast as they could double quick. .
Instead Of complaining that he did so
little, we wonder how he did 30 much
In place Of growing at the heavy list OF
easualities, we should be grateful that
we have not to lament an army lost
True it is, that we have been compelled
toRabandon the campaign, but where il
here another General that could have
eztricated bis army aud inflicted such
fearful obstruction on the enemy3
On view of a full knowledge Of all the
circumstances Of the case, we look upon
the campaign Of the Red River, with ii
battles of Mansfield and Pleasant Hill
not in the light Of defeat, as serie,
Of operations in which the enemy, have
not only suffered more in casualties, !,
more effeetually crippled, and less able
to do US injury than he WAS before, bu
also as one in which we have added fresl
laurels TO the crown Of American arms
We doubt not but that ere this our flag
would have hoated in triumph oyel
Shreveport, we're il not that the Red
River in its inconsistency chose to fal
when we had calculated on its rising
But this was the act Of God, which, By
principle Of law, should injure no man

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE Court

ton to the War Department. They find
that Gen McCook did his entire duty ia

going into Chattanooga. Gen Critten
den is held entirely blameless, and the

his conduct His forces had been sent
piecemeal, to Gen Thomas, and lie foun,
himself without command before leav
ing for Chattanooga. Negley is alst
exOnerated.
