The Oearth Of Statesmanship.

The Army and Navy Journal in an article
on the lack of craftsmanship in this great ma,
tional crisis, expresses only what all observant
men feel. The Journal discovers that sundry
politicians are maneuvering to seize the credit
of that peace which the arms of the republic
are likely to conquer, and these are the same
men who, for the first two years Of the war,
thought to lobby it through rather than tight
it through. These purblind politicians are
thus characterized
Outmaneuvered at every point by their
shrewd southern adversaries, and sometimes
handled like wax, maladroit in their efforts 20
save the country. With no foresight, withno
broad view of the needs of the hour, and no
capacity to cast the horoscope for the future,
led aboI: - momentary excitement, like can
cuses in New York or mobs In Baltimore, the
majority of politicians of this epoch in Amcri-
can history may pray fervently, az the greatest
of boons, that, their names may be forgotten
1t is not indeed that they were inferior to
those predecessors in public affairs whose pla.
ces they filed, but that the times were great.
or, and they became little by comparison
Woe to the public man who, highly respecta-
ble in his small way, in peaceful times, finds
a great storm bursting upon him, and he is a
pitiful dwarf, where the might of giant il
needed! This great crisis in the country's
history, which. brought out at least q few great
captains, unknown before, has developed no
new statesman whose mark will remain cen.
tury. So singular sterility is hardly exam.
Piled in history, considering the intellectual &C.
tivity Of the times, and the magnitude of the
national war; % .""

What an Editor Might Have Been.

DIR. Holland, the editor of the Springfield
Mass Republican, has been up in Vermont
to where he came FROM and he thus
sketches what he should have been If be had
not left home and became an editor: a
:" Your correspondent would have grown
stalwart and strong, with horny hands and a
face as black as the ace Of spades He would
have taught school winters, worked on the
farm summers, and gone out haying fifteen
days in July, and taken for pay the running
gears and iron works of a wagon. oE
At two-and twenty, or thereabouts he would
have begun to pay atteations to a girl with a
father worth two thousand dollars and a spit
curl on her forehead-a girl who always went
TO singing school and set in the seats" and
sung without opening her mouth--a pretty
girl, anyway. Well, after seeing her home
from singing school two or three years TAX
ing her to a Fourth of July, and getting
about one hundred dollars together, he would
have married and settled down Years would
pass away, and that girl with the spit curl
would have eleven children-just as sure a

at Bellevue. There is a grade half way from
Dubuque to Bellevue, and almost half way to
Clinton on the other side He said that GER
tain gentlemen in Chicago had already propos-
ed to build bridge at this point If the proper
facilities were granted them, and he had been
instructed to tender them all the land requir-
cd on this side. But might not the Bridge be
built by parties here in Iowa! 1t will pay as
a matter of speculation. The losses for the
want of it last year would build it.

thanks to the officers of the Convention, the
gentlemen in attendance from abroad, the
railroad companies, reporters for the press,

Of summer clad in gorgeous dyes,

At home beside the sea.

May kindly welcome send.

With joyful shouts for me,
While two fond hearts my thoughts divide
AT home beside the sea.
Sweet home, where silvery heads repose

Keep kindly cheer for me,

Professor Goodwin Smith, in writing to the

concludes by saying; ...
" Enough has been done for glory, if glory

of Grant, Sherman and Sheridan the scatnen
of Farragut and Porter have forced calumny
itself to own that a nation supreme in indus
try can, when the need arises, make itself sill

the victor's moderation for doubt of victory.

be certain to command attention. OF course
we are not at liberty to indicate the source
from which this important intelligence reaches
us; we can only say that We have not only the
best reason for believing it entirely Trustworthy
but that in its most essential particulars
it is entirely in accordance with SINH
lar information which has reached us
in another way. Coming in this authentic shape
it will probably Startle many people as positive
evidence of how near the Rebellion even from
the Rebel stand point, is to its final collapse
But after all it will but confirm the popular
opinion which has been growing into a settled
and firm conviction for weeks past. that inc

While this is generally believed, the strong EVIL
