THE REPUBLICANS WAR BULLETINS
AND sECRETART sTANTON's DIS.
PATCHEs To NV YORK.

We are frequently asked why Secretary Stan.
ton does not Promulgats his dispatches, about
the progress Of our armies In the neld, here as
we'll as In New York. In the absence OF Official
Information on that subject, We have NO heslta-
tion In stating what 10 plain TO every one.
Secretary Stanton Is sensible enough to
know that the war bulletins Of the NATIONAL
REPt BLlcAS, issued at tho earliest moment
after the receipt Of reliable news, prscludes the
necessity of announcing his dispatches here.
He sends them to-New York to allay the eI-
Clement consequent upon the sensation re-
ports published in Copperhesd prints, and to
Illustrate the plans OF gold speculators. It lie
matter Of self-congratulatioa to US that they
all confirm, in the minds Of the timid aud
doubling, the exclusive news put forth In the
REPUBLICAN.
The secretAry's dispatches arc doing great
good, and We hope he will continue them.

greater confidence than before in Gen. Grant.

DEATH OF GENERAL FEssENDEN.

Among the saddest of the bereavements
caused by the war is that lately suffered by
Senator Fessendeu. In the New Orleans Times
Of the 9Th inst, just received, we find a de-
tailed account Of an engagement OF the ad-
vance of General Banks army, near Cane
River, with the rebels, on the Esd ult., which
contains this sentences
"AmOng the first killed was Colonel Fes-
sender, leading his brigade"
We know that Senator Fes sendeu, who has
given two sons TO his country, will bear with
Christian fortitude their loss, but bereaved
| father must feel such agony when his sons arc
torn from his side as no other is called upon To
| experience, and In this case there are circum-
stances OF peculiarly trying character. Col.
Fessenden was in command Of brigade and
had won his prom otion to Brigadicr General
by gallant conduct.
His appointment had been made out, and,
few days since, 1t was confirmed by the
Senate. His father was anticipating the pleas
ure he would experience on receiving this re-
cognitIon Of his services, when he received the
sad Intelligence that the son had been slain in
battle before the confirmation to his appoint
ment was given.
But what proud record he leaves behind
If anything could Hssuage the pangs of pa
rental grief under such circumstances, 1t woult
be such a sentence as we have quoted above
Among tho first killed was Colonel Fessen
den, leading his b, ig1de :"
