True Picture.

Republican editors occasionally tell the
truth. The Joliet Republican of last week,
in an article or national affairs, makes the
following frank admission, which we need
not tell our readers is truthful rehersal of
the results that followed the election of
Abraham Lincoln and the triumphof the
the Republican party:
''Ia a moment the bright sky was dark
ened withzthe fierce clouds of civil war.
and our prnsperity was driven away, like
stubble before the wind. Instead of peace,
we have war. Instead Of the respect Of
nations, we are held in contempt. Instead
of freedom, our liberties are abridged.-
Instead of less burdens and taxes, We are
loaded down with them"
Juliet signal. [volume] (Juliet [i.e. Joliet], Ill.) 1844-1???, 1864-02-09
Ordered TO the -FieId AgaIn.

A special dispetch from Washington to
the Chicago Journal, dated Feb. 80, states
that orders have been forwarded to the
military authoities 10 the several States to
promptly forward all troops to the field
Immediately upon the expiration of their
furloughs.
Other veteran regiments are in the field
awaiting their turn to visit their homes
Delay, on the part of those enjoying that
privilege, to report at the rendezvous at
the appointed time, will not only be an
injustice to their comrades in the field, but
will subject them to arrest as deserters =
This intelligence will prove q disappoint-
nent to the soldiers who have returned
home on a brief fu-lough OF thirty days, as
they have been induced by their officers to
believe that they would not be ordered
back to the field for two or three months.
1t will also prove disappointment to the
friends Of the soldiers who had anticipated
having them remain with them much lon
ger than the thirty days written on their
furloughs.
1t is supposed that the urgent necessity
has actuated the authorities in Issuing this
/ order. +'-t

A Good appointment

The citizens of this city will be pleased
to learn that Hon. D. A Parks hes
been appointed Commissioner of the Peni-
Tertiary, in place of Dr. Buck who has re
signed Thisis the best appointment ever
made by Governor Yates. Judge Parks
has been a resident Of this city and county
for more than twenty years, and though q
public officer large portion of the time,
we never heard his integrity questioned
or his fidelity impugnsd. Possessing a re-
fined and highly cultivated mind, bis
opinions have always commanded the re-
spect Of his fellow citizens. Though we
differ from him 10 politics, still it atfords
US pleasure to record our high appreciation
Of his worth. In shs appointments the
State has secured an honest and faithful
officer; and the people of this city have the
assurance that their interests and rights
will be respected.

MORTALITY AMONG REBEL PRIsoNERs.-
We learn from the Rock Island argus that
sickness prevails to an alarming extent
among the rebel prisoners at the Barracks
in that city. The total hunter of prisOn>
ers that have arrived at the Barracks is
1905. OF this number 324 had died up to
the first Of February, IS of whom died of
the small pox, which terrible disease was
very prevalent among them. Tue number
of deaths in the month Of January was
209. Thus white men are falling victims
t. the most loathsome diseases, in Union
and rebel prisons, by hundreds and thous-
ands, ana our government auth orities, in
order to please the Abolitionists, will not
consent to an exchange of prisoners, unless
the negro SELLERS be exchanged the same
as white soldiers. Are not President Linz
coin and JEFF. Davis guilty Of the dea tbs Of
the prisoners whO perish, when an honor
