the umrnr of raids.
General Kilpatrick certainly" deserves credit
for vigorous conduct iir his late movement
toward Richmond; and General Custer is pro
— entitled to equal commendation. But
after all, it may weU be asked, what good was
done by either of them that will compensate
for the losses. Lately there have been so
many small expeditions sent ont in different
directions, no one of which has accomplished
any great object, that we fear the world w 3
think our war has degenerated into mere
wanton waste of hfe and destruction of pro
perty. Cavalry expeditions may be made very
nsefnl as parts of great army movements. But
no movement of Meade’s army seems to have
been contemplated, and its commander was in
Washington city at the very time that Kilpat-
Z Ck^t C * Stel Were in motioD - If the Army
of the Potomac had been prepared to advance
at the time jwhen Kilpatrick and Custer had in
terrupted Lee’s communicatisns and created a
panic in Richmond, something very important
might have been accomplished. Bnt this was
not the case, and the raids were profitless to us
and not very damaging to the . enemy. It is
wi great satisfaction that we hear that
Lieutenant-General Grant /is on his way to
ashmgton. This, we presume, means that
he is so<& to take the chief command of the
armies. In his department there have been no
nseless cavalry raids, and we venture the pre
diction-, that none will be allowed in any depart
ment, when he enters upon his new duties.

should be scrupulous fo conduct It in the most
open manner, that the justice of its operations
should be beyond cavil and he manifest to
every one. The my stery and secrecy observed
by self-important officials are most ill-advised.
When a draft is ordered, tables should be pub
lished. showing the enrollment in every dis-
the total qnota of each district, the ere-!
dits to which it is entitled, and the net quota:
to he furnished. Each locality would then see
that it was called upon for only its just share
of the general burden, and, all murmurs of dis
satisfaction would be bushed.. The Adminis
tration should treat the people with confidence,
and should so conduct its affairs as to convince
even its enemies that it is worthy the confi
dence of the people. It is only in this way
that the war can be carried to a successful
issue.
THE BATTLE-FIELD OF GETTYSBURG.
Victor Hugo, in his wonderful description of
the battle of Waterloo, in Lea Miserables, tells
of a visit which he paid to the memorable field
in 1861, nearly forty years subsequent to the
period of the tremendous struggle which
made a great man of Wellington and an
exile of Napoleon. The chateau of Hongomont
still stood, and it bore marks of the dreadful
fray of the 18th of June, 1816; but the fine
old group of buildings and the other interesting
historical relics of the locality had been greatly
altered. Walls had disappeared, other chuiges
had been made in the structures, and an utili
tarian spirit had wiped out very mauy of the
traces of the great drama at which the world
had gazed forty years before with bated
breath. The plough had turned
over the soil, and Hongomont
and La Haie Sainte, where Gaul and Briton
had entered upon their great final death grapple,
were greatly altered, and the familiar landmarks
of the field of Waterloo could be traced
out but with difficulty. The English had
thrown up a great mound of earth upon the
field and surmounted it with the figure of a
lion, and this cockneyish contrivance was
deemed a fit monument of Waterloo; while
Waterloo itself was left to the plough and the
harrow, and to such changes as the simple
tillers of its soil chose to make in the historic
localities of the field which had witnessed as
splendid bravery and as devoted heroism as the
World ever witnessed.
Our own struggle at Gettysburg was a great
battle; in respect of' the number of men en
gaged in it, and of its victims in killed and
wonnded, it was almost, if not quite, equal to
Waterloo. The actors in it were no less heroic
than those who struggled for the possession of
Hongomont. The stake played for at Water
loo was legitimate tyranny mid oppression,
against illegitimate usurpation. The struggle
at Gettysburg was for the loftier principles of
Freedom, the Union and the Supremacy of the
Laws, against Slavery,-Treason and Anarchy.
The righteous cause will prevail, and instead of
raising a mound of dirt to commemorate the
great event, the people of Pennsylvania hast
set aside the field itself, as its own best
monument. The entrenchments thrown
up during those anxious July nights
in 1863 remain as the battle left them, and no
shell-shattered tree, battered earthwork, or
stone or timber breastwork has been suffered
to be disturbed. The American historian who
visits Cemetery Hill, Culp’s Hill, Granite Spur :
or Round Top, forty years hence, will find
, among them no traces of the plough or marks
of ignorant or vandal hands. The .Gettysburg
Battle-field Memorial Association have taken
care of the preservation of this sacred soil, and
the spot will probably remain unchanged for
ever, except by the wear of the elements. To
accomplish this grand object the Association
need the aid of loyal Pennsylvanians. Their
plan for the accomplishment'of their purpose
and their appeal to their fellow-citizens will be
found in another column. We can only say to
our readers, peruse it and be governed in yonr
action by the promptings of your own patriotic
hearts.
COPPERHEAD CRITICS.
It can bnt mortify every loyal man in the
country to read the editorial productions of the
Copperhead journalists upon the recent
disaster in Florida. Eager to embrace, what
they conceive to be an excellent opportunity,
to villify the President of the United States’
and at the same time to give comfort to the ene
my, by applauding them for victories ■ gained,
and thus encouraging them to continue their
resistance to the Government. The telegraph
had scarcely transmitted the sad intelligence of
the defeat and loss of life,before the newspapers,
over whose-columns these unscrupulous critics
exercise control, teemed with articles slander
dering the Administration. No regret was
expressed for the check which our arms had
received; not a word or sentence published
which could be construed even into an expres
sion of sorrow at the loss of the brave men
who fell on the field of Olustee. It haiTbecn
stated that Mr. Lincoln had the
responsibility of ordering the expedition to
Florida, and its failure afforded too much
scope for criticism to escape the notice of
these sympathizers with the victors. Fortu
nately the patriotic' people of the North and
Westjiave too much faith and confidence in
the President to credit a single one of the
numerous charges which have been made
against his integrity and honesty. . The impu
tations of political motives is but the concoction
of the fertile brains of the villifiers. There is
no possible reason why Mr. Lincoln should
exert himself to secure votes for himself at the
ensuing- Presidential election in Florida, or
any other State. From almost every loyal
Commonwealth have come, within the past
tew weeks, unmistakable evidences that he is
the choice of the people, as the man best
fitted to occupy, during the four years suc
ceeding the fourth of March, .1866, the Chief
Executive chair of the nation.
Disgraceful as may be the abuse of his op
ponents, their mendacity and baseness cannot,
happily, injure his prospect of- success, nor
prevent his triumph in November next.
FINANCIAL AND POLiriCAL WISDOM FEOM
RICHMOND
The Richmond Examiner, in an article on the
condition of the .North, speculates with an as
sumption of calm philosophy on the contest for
the Presidency. It considers Mr. Lincoln a»
the candidate of the moderate Unionists, and
“Fremont or some other” as the choice of the
~?*• It also goes on to regard the efforts
o e Indiana Copperheads as “gracious ..bads
which “ ma y bloom and blossom
delusivß froit ° f re™ lll *!'®.” This kind of
T to P e of Copperhead assignee has al
BPLLIYISyi PHILABItPau. . MAPffl 7, 1864.
lured and tantalized the rebels from the very
outset of the war, and’they still cling to the
phantom of such aid with comical persistence.
It is not lor want of desire on the part of the
Northern peace democracy that their aid to the
rebels is ineffectual; but it is because their sin
ister and contemptible want of patriotisrtT dis
gusts the great mass of the people of the
North, and the latter refuse to allow the Cop
perheads to work their malignant wiß.
The Examinerprofesses to regard the finan
cial condition of the North ad more desperate
than that of rebeldom, because Northern finan
ciering “is based on ever new frauds,” and
Southern financiering is “based on fact and
truth!” Truly a marvellous discovery. We
wonder whether Mr. Chase will tremble when
Jie reads of it! In concluding, the Examiner
grows eloquently Utopian and sanguine. As
thus:
T’JH sa £F eattllin S lo stand upon a basis
of simple fact and trutn. In this struggle, S!
t j 6 two parties first sets iveir upon mat
Arm ground must win the day—and we do think

that this position of affairs is altogether to oar
mind If any Confederate shrink from abiding
this issue, and in this exact form, it is time that
such Confederate should gather np and cl™frhlll
h l nds npon ’ tnm u ‘“to gold and

he can escape the roobers that inlest thoa e P p°
Brave words, my masters! The charming
basis of fact and veracity on which this bloody
rebellion is now—not standing, but sinking
must be the subject of peculiar admiration to
those who are starving within the rebel lines;
and of course the allusion to those “Con
federates” who are requested to “sneak away
across the lines,” cannot be meant for any
very large proportion of the people of the
devoted South!
COPPERHEAD LOYALTY.
As an evidence of the feeling of Copperhead
journals we clip the following from the jfelins
grove (Pa.) Times, with the comments npon it
of the Stark county (Ohio) Democrat. Sava
the Times:
“Ue would see Old Abe hnngby order of Tt.fr
Davis, before we would urge any man to volnn
teer m a war like thl6. ”
The comments of the Stark county Democrat
are as below:
“The above plain and truthful talk we com
mend to onr friends, especially to those who have
been led need toaid by their money and otherwise
the bonnty and schemes of the Abolition leaders. * ’
IVe commend the foregoing utterances to
those deluded souls who fancy that the peace
Democratic party either is Or ever was an anti
slavery party, or that it ever honestly advo
cated the war for the Union. Both the above
journals are supported purely by Democrats
and represent the sentiments of the adherents
of that faction in the localities where they are
published.
