Wee hope q good results from trivial
conduct on the part OF our womeu.5 Instead
OF adornipg their persons for seductive pur-
poses, and tempting our officers TO . course
alike disgrAceful and unworthy of women
whose husbands and brothers are in our
armies, they had better sIhort them to well
doing than act as instruments of destruc-
ton to both parties. The decentralization
among our women is becoming fearful
Before the war no woman dared to demean
herself lightly, but now q refined and pure
woman can scarcely travel without seeing
some of our officers with fne looking ladies
as companions. You are forced to sit at
the tables with them. you meet them
wherever you go. 1t is that we, too, are
as wild as our enemies, soothing at God
Aud at all rules Of, social morality? For
Heavens sake let as frowu down this grow
ing evil, unless all mothers aud fathers
would have their daughters grow up In q
pestileutial atmosphere which to breathe is
death. Il not the hand of the enemy
enough to send destruction to our homes,
or must we have disgrace added TO death2
The evil can only be remeGied by banish-
ing the frail sisters from society, putting
no man in position who is not moral. Are
not the bright aud shining examples of flee,
Jackson, Johnson. Wheeler. Maury, aud
many Others enough to teach sspirants for
ONCE that pure aud moral men cau make
generals2 that it is not necessary TO play
lSckey TO fasr women TO gain the country's
applause? Nor need they think they are
NOT knoWn. By their deeds We know them.
Our President is a pure and moral man;
we're it not well for him TO set an example
hy discouutenancing and refusing promo
tiou to this set OF moths. We have no laws
to reach such q class but public opinion;
then let that be used without mercy,

The Milwaukee Neaos is "pleased at be-
ing able to announce that arrangements
have been completed at Chicago by which
the people Of Wisconsin in attendance at
the coming convention, will be provided
with suitable headquarters, and, to large
extent, with other accommodations. MIR.
DUTcuER, Of the Revere IiUuse, corner OF
Clark and kinzie streets, has kindly re-
served nearly the whole of. his hotel for
the benefit Of Wisconsin men Most OF
bis space has been already assigned, but
from fifty to hundred more guests from
this State can secure rooms at reasonable
rates by writing to him Immediately v
The courtesy and liberality manifested BY
Mr. BUTCHER in caring for his Wisconsin
friends, is worthy Of all praise, aud will be
Justly appreciated.
The committee appointed by the dem
ocratic club of this city for the purpose,
accompanied BY Hon, H. L. PALMER, pres
iden, Of the club, visited Chicago on Wed
nesday, and also secured large ball and
spacious rooms adjoining, in Uhiich's
block, to be occupied as general head
quarters for the state. Uhlich's block is
conveniently located on the opposite cor
ner from the Revere House, and will prob
ably hold a thousand people.
9 In view Of the arrangements made, it
is to be hoped that every town in Wiscon-
sin will be largely represented. The PEG
pie should be there in body, and them
selves inaugurase the campaign for the re-
generation and redemption of the repub,
lie. A grand 'assemDlage Of the fTeemer
or the nation, coming from all sections Of
the Union, caunot fail 10 unite them in

Vast Armies and their Movements

There have been vast armies and grand
movements in ancient times. Here is a
record of some them:
Sennacheria, the Bible tells us, lost in
single night $4,000 by the destroying
angel. ............ .....-.... ...-
The city of Thebes had hundred gates,
and could send out at each gate 10000
fighting men and 200 charo,s, in all l )
100000 men add 10000 chariots.
The army Of Terrab, King OF Eshipola,
consisted of 100000 men and 300 char
lots of war.
Sesostris, King of Egypt, led agains;
his enemies 10000 men, "a, 900 cavalry
and 81 scythe-armed chariots-l,491
before Christ. .....
Hamilcar, went from Carthage and
landed near PALERMO. He had fleet of
1000 ships and 5000 small vessels, and

Who Blundered at Petersburg

ia The Philadelphia Press, now that For
.NEy has abandoned the Administration in
disgust and gone to Europe, explains, in
the following paragraph, who blundered
at Petersburg:
The first cry of the north at the repuIse,
we are told, was that somebody had blun>
dered-some general officer was personal
Iy responsible. How many and who have
blundered it is difficult to decide. But
the general officer who directly caused the
failure may, with toierable accuracy, be
pointed out AS Gen. Robert <. Lee.
