From the Kcokuk Constitution WI
learn that the Kcokuk and De-
Moines Railway have decided to pu,
on a fast passenger train between
Kcokuk and Des Moines on the 2Stt

issued on Sunday, the 9th, and the
fast train, under the new order will
leave at s 30 Monday morning
The time between KeoknE and
Des Moines will be shortened up
one hour and half, and as the spec d
Of the passenger train now running
is good, the shortening the time to
this extent will greatly increase it.
The *. & d. NJ. has the best and
smoothest track in the State, and can
run trains over It at a high rate OF
speed with perfect safety. 1t has
gained q good reputation as being
safe, reliable and sure Of connection,

Editors Of The CouTtcr:--Inasmuch
as my name has been freely mention.
ed by our own bar in connection with
the Republican nomination for Judge
Of this Circuit, and as the impression
ofmy candidacy prevails both here
aud In some ofthe adjoining counties,
l desire to say through this medium
that cannot allow my name to be
used in that connection. Flattcrcd,
am frank to say, by the partial favor
Of my legal brethren here, and at.
tracted by the honor of the position
itself, | at fret expressed willingness
that my name might be used in con-
nec,ion with the nomination, but al.
ter mature dclibcration l have con.
clndcd that cannot allow myself TO
be made Judge OF. The controlling
reason for this conclusion is that with
my habits OF not very close economy,
on salary Of $4,000 per year, after
paying my personal expenses OF
travelling the circuit should not
have enough left TO support my family
on land rs they have stronger claim
on me than the State, | am, as it were,
obliged to decline an honor that
might be acceptable under a higher
salary. In doing so, however, | dc.
sire to here express my heartfelt ap.
probation for The favor and kindnes:
which have been, with such unanimity
shown me by my generous brethren
of this bar, and by those in other parts
OF the District.

Gen. Fitzpatrick has had a series o

Gen. Fitzpatrick has had series OF
articles in the New York Times dc.
Tending Shcrman's Memoirs from ad-
verse criticism which they have re-
ceived at the hands Of Generals
Wilson, Boynton and others. His
last article contains an elaborate crit
icism on the battle of Atlanta, July
2end, 1864, in which Mcpherson was
slain. - -.
In this article he commits the
somewhat remarkable blundcr Of
saying that the attack commenced
at / +. NJ. from the rebel line and
that the 10th corps was the first to re-
ceive the onslaught.
The truth is that the attack was
first made by Pat Clcburn's division
of Hardee's corps at precisely high
noon, and that the Iowa Brigade Of
the 18th Corps, Army ofthe Tennessee,
which occupied The extreme left OF
Shcrman's army, was the first to re-
ccivc the cncmy's fire. In this opin.
ion Sherman agrees in his Memoirs
and reports, and the fact has never
been called in question before so far
rs we can remember.
The 10th corps was in tho rear OF
and supporting the 18th and 18th
corps, at the time McPhcrson's left
wing was first struck, as before men.
toned, and it becoming apparent to
the clear military comprehension OF
Mcpherson that the enemy was at.
lacking him perpendicular TO his
line for the purpose Of telescoping
him, Immediately put Dodges 10th
corps in motion to refuse the left OF
the lf,h corps which presently
brought Dodge into action and iu
accomplishing which the heroic Nc
Pherson rode into the enemies Skin
mish line and was killed.
And speaking abont military mat
tiers reminds us that Walt Whitman
has just written q book In which be
describes many of the battle incidents
Of the Potomac campaigns from the
stand point which he then occupied as
hospital attendant.
II will be difficult for Whitman to
make many of his countrymen be-
licvc what he asserts, to-wit: that on
ono occasion Mosby's column assault
ed train Of wounded prisoners
and put them to the bayonet before
!robbing and destroying the train, and
that the same day a column Of our
troops captured seventeen of these
raiders and shot them down uncere.
moniously on the public square Of q
Virginia village.
1t Is quite probable that both Xii.
patrick and Whitman have drawn
largely on their imagination for
their facts.
