General LonUStrcet.

In reply to an invitation given him
to attend mass meeting in Lafayette
Square, New Orleans, at the time Sena-
tor Wilson was in that city, Gen. Long,
street replies in a very forcible and
manly letter. He says: -------.--
"The great principles that divided
political parties prior to the war We're
thoroughly discussed by our wisest
statesmen. When argument was ex-
hausted resort was had to compromise.
When compromise was unavailing, dis
cussion was renewed, and expedients
were sought, but none could be found
TO suit the emergency. Appeal was
finally made to the sword, to determine
which of the claims was the true con-
struction of constitutional law. The
sword has decided in favor of the
North, and what they claimed as prin-
ciples cease to be principles, and are
become idw. The views that we hold
cease to be principles because they are
opposed TO ldW. 1t is therefore our
duty to abandon ideas that are obsolete
and conform to the requirements of lar.
The Military Bill, and amendments,
are peace offerings. We should accept
them as such, and place ourselves upon
then, as the starting point from phich to
meet future political issues as they arise.
No man fought with more earnest
ness for the Southern cause than did
Gen. Longstreet, yet as he says the
sword having decided in favor of the
North, he is willing to work in any
way that promises relief to his dis
tressed people and harmony to the ma
ton. His example should be followed
by other leaders of the South who de-
sire to see the Southern States again
represented in Congress.

Death of #. H. Bisseu.

Hon. Frederic e. Bissell, Attorney
General of this State, died i'm Dubuque,
on the 18th inst. In the death of Mr.,
Bisseli, Dubuque lost good citizen, the
bar an able lawyer and the State an
honored representative. He was self
made man, and at his death stood Mt
the head of the bar in Northern Iowa.
His wife died about two weeks ago.
Mr.. Bissell at tho time of his death,
was AZ years old. 4#a# p
We clip the following from the Du-
buque Times of June 18th. a All.
" At five o clock yesterday afternoon
intelligence was circulated through
out Dubuque which suddened every
heart, cast a gloom over every corn-
tenance, and caused every man to feel
as If q calamity had befallen the city
f. K. Bissell is dead!' To almost
every person the tidings were so un-
expected that people were shocked at
the news that so able man, pure in
life, public spirited and generous heart
ed, should be called away in the full
ness OF his manhood, just when his
superior talents, and his reputation as
- "CiO DcltIK IcCOEnIXeU
through the State, and I'm other States.
and when his fellow-citizens here were
proud to do him honor, IL indeed sad
and incomprehensible. He had lived
in Dubuque Twenty-Five years, had
been intimately connected with all its
great public enterprises-those internal
as well as those calculated to advance
Its commercial interests-had been
prominent in movements of a phi
lanthropic character; in short had been
cherished in the hearts of the people
here as one of those rare men who are
blessings in communities like ours.
that his death is indeed calamity.
But little over two weeks ago he fol-
lowed his wife to the grave; now he
has joined her In the land of spirits,
and his body is to be lowered to its
resting place beside her. I'm death
they are not divided.'n

who Has Lied?

In our issue of May oath, we spoke
of the decided stand taken by Judge
Burt in his charge to the grand jury at
the recent District Court of Black
Hawk Co., against rum-selling and
gambling of all kinds. The Waterloo
Courier in notice or the Judges
charge, made q similar truthful state
ment, which has called out considera-
BILE comment from the press of Buchan-
an and Dubuque counties. The Judge
Is represented as expressing himself in
a manner 80 entirely different from
that in which he addresses jurors in
Dubuque county that an explanation
was demanded of Judge Burt by his
German friends who claim for him a
different policy. The Stats Zeitung
claims for the Judge that he never ex-
pressed himself as has been represent
cd. Some one has lied, and now who
Is It? That Judge Burt expressed him
self as opposed to all manner of rum
selling and gambling while in Water
loo, can be fully proven by numerous
witnesses who heard his charge to the
jury. We do not know what Judge
Burt is in Dubuque, but we do know
that he was strong TEMPERANCE advo-
cate while attending court in Waterloo.
The people would like to have the mat
ter cleared up, and it would seem that
an explanation from Judge Bert cor
recting the assertions of the Stats
Zcit,aag, is due to himself and the peo-
pie of the District. If the Stats Zei-
tu',g has falsely represented him in say
ing that the statement Of the Courier
was false, it should be corrected at
once. We would like to know who
has lied.

1t is stated on good authority, that in
several of the large cities large num-
bers of discharged soldiers who have
suffered in Southern prison pens, have
banded themselves together under the
name of "Andersonville League
every member subscribing to solemn
oath, that if justice failed its duty and
Davis was allowed to go unpublished,
they would never allow him To live OH
the sacred soil of the United States.
Only those are qualified to enter who
havo suffered either from wounds or
imprisonment i'm rebel pens. Accord
ing to the oath, as long as he remains
on foreign soil he is safe, and II is
known by him that such league has
boon formed for that purpose. This
may have something to do with his re-
manning in Canada. If it shall be the
means of preventing that arch fiend
and murderer from ever again poliut-
ing the sacred soil of the United States
by his presence, we say all hail! to the
"Andersonville League" SIN. ...

tion that so qulckens every impulse ana
faculty, and brings all the energies into
play. We are not TO despise this motive,
nor to say that the new patriotism made
our people u~nmindful of private thrift.
Getting a living in America is of itself an
education, for it is ever opening new fields,
counting ever-changing chances, and
breaking up mental stagnation. But now
new incentives came, and even the con-
tractors who went for large profits could
not but carry a certain enthu siasm into
their schemes, and catch something OF the
sacred passion that cares for the flag for
itself, not merely for the money that its
success secures. With the people at
large public spirit entered into their prl-
vate business as we'll as their military en-
terprise, and the war was a popular edu-
cation as we'll us a national drill. All the
lines of industry turned toward the one
centre and at heart the whole loyal reo-
pie worked or studied, marched or sailed
under the brave old banner of the Union.
Our Yankee utiIiarlanism took an ideal
turn, and thrift caught fire at the flaming
altar of patriotism. The women and
children knit stockings and scraped Int;
the men plowed and reaped, sawed and
hammered, planned and built, when they
did not fight for the nation.
1t is an important question how far
this six or seven years schooling has told
upon the habitual working Of the Ameri-
can mind, and made of US a new and bet
ter people and especially if it has acted
unon us in the higher plane Of thought.
1t is very clear that our affections have
been brought into our patriotism as never
before, and we never knew how much
we could love our country until 1t was
in peril, and not only one sheep but the
whole flock seemed in danger Of being
lost among the deep valleys or dark
mountains. Our affections have not only
chung to the country and flag with a dl-
rect patriotism, but through a thousand
ties of sympathy and love from oar asso-
Citations with its brave and suffering de-
tenders. The law of love is a wonderful
mulliplicr as we'll as magnifier, and we
have seen the force of the whole nation
reflected from the thousands and millions
of her champions. Consider the effect of
our great armies upon the national mind
in this one respect, the training OF our
people to look upon The whole country,
alike the land and the people, in the light
of their intense solicitude and personal
afinities. Every valley, mountain, river
and lake, sound and sea, now speaks to
them of home, kindred, and friends, and
the heroic dead bind US all anew to our
motherland. Our affections go into our
historical studies, and we read Of the old
revolutionary times, and the old Constl-
t~utional debates as parts of our own fam
lily history, or as bearing on the pedigree
and title-deeds of ourselves and our child
rem. So we have all studied the country
by heart, and are so studying it still ; and
we know it more and better by this re-
cent schooling than from our whole life
time before.
