Ian defeated the rebels in Western Virgin.
in; and despite Of Mr.. Lincoln and his ad.
visers, he beat Lee at Antietam and Soutl
Mountain, at Williamsburg and Fair Oaks
at the Seven Pines, at Malvern Hill, and on
the Chickahominy.
And since getting beyond the long and
meddlesome arms of Mr.. Lincoln, Burnside
has conquered East Tennessee, and beaten
Longstreet at Knoxville; and the brightest
laurels which deck the brow of Hooker
were gathered at Chattanooga, more than a
thousand miles beyond the reach of Mr..
LincOln's counsel or direction. And all or
most of all the victories gained by Grant,
have been achieved so far away from Wash
ington as to render him secure from inter-
ference from the Administration, even by
lightning. Does any one charge that the
fault has been with the soldiers of the army
of the Potomac? No. They have proved
themselves to be heroes on a hundred fields,
and detachments from that army have gain
ed blood-stained laurels at Vicksburg, at
Knoxville and Chattanooga.
Then let even-handed Justice be done to
the brave defenders of our flag; and let the
responsibility rest where it belongs-upon
tie shoulders Of President Lincoln. raw T. s..
Let it rest upon Lincoln, and Stanton,
and Wade and Sumner and Halleck, and on
the black brood which perch about his pal
ace, and who at all times can pass his inn

Presence.
Had it not been for Mr.. Lincoln, the war
would have been over, peace concluded, and
the Union restored, more than eighteen
months ago.
Let those who pay the taxes, and fight
our country's battles, think of these things.

Heavy Robbery---$35,OOO I'm Uni
ted States Bonds StOlen--.I'wO
NIen Arrested ON Suspicion.

IFrom the st. Paul minnesota Press, Dec. 25l
From prudential reasons we have refrain
ed from noticing the heavy robbery which
took place last Sunday night, but as arrests
have been made, there is no longer occasion
for silence.
Last Sunday morning Franklin Steele,
Esq, left this city for Washington, taking
with him a trunk containing thirty-tive
thousand dollars in United States five
twenty bonds, and other valuables. The
bonds belonged to the Messrs. Thompson
and other parties in this city, who have re-
Gently organized a national bank, and were
being sent to Washington in connection
! with its organization.
! By the time the stages reached Red Wing
( the other trunks on the sleigh that this oc-
cupied had been taken off by their owners,
leaving this alone upon the rack. The
stages left Red Wing few minutes before
six P. NJ, arriving at Lake City about ten,
and during this time the robbery took
place. 1t has since been ascertained that
the trunk was taken between creek where
the stages stop for water, five miles this
side of Lake City, and the latter place.
Mr.. Steele proceeded to Wabashaw before
discovering his loss. Meeting the up stages
at this point he Immediately returned to
Lake City, thinking that it might possibly
have become detached from the sleigh by
accident, and that it could be-found on the
route. All search, however, proved unavail-
ing, and a further examination showed that
the straps which bound the trunk to the
stage had been cut, thus rendering it certain
that some bold thief had made way witt
the property.
Several officers were Immediately put up
on the track, and the telegraph was brough
into requisition to notify parties where tn
bonds would be likely to be offered for sale
Up to last evening none Of the bonds hay
arrested on suspicion, at Lake City, Wed
nesday evening.
The robbery was bold one, as there wei
three or four passengers in the stage at til
