Even had Congress the power, thoro Is nothing in this cuse that would warrant any disturbance of the military verdict. ‘Tho evidence before the court-martial was alm ply overwhelming, and showed that Porter wns determined not to fight under Gen, Pope, or to obyy his orders, and oven refused to necept any verbal orders from him, and that ho disobeyed these orders in the face of the enemy. It showed that he did not want to fight the Rebels, and was only waiting for Geng, McDowell and Popy to get whipped, which would give him the pretext for: fall- ing back without golng tuto uctlon, and that he ulthnately fell back at the very time when McDowell was on the polnt of making the attack on the Rebels, It showed that, In ret ply to every order that was sent him, he In- vented all sorts of empty oxcuses Instead of obeying orders, as was his duty, ‘These facts ure established beyond all reasonable con. troversy, and all the flimsy and trumped-up excused that may now be offered by himself or by his Confederate friends cannot aifect the question of lila shameful disobedience of ordera in the face of the enemy and ata crite {eal time, Obedience to superlors fs tho first duty of a soldier, and nothing can, .inake amends for the yiolution of that duty. ‘Io propose, therefore, that such 4 oman, after having been dismissed from the army and dlaqualitled from any furthor military service to his country, shull be restored to the ariny and rewarded by $00,000 for his infamous and treacherous conduct, is, ag we have sald be- fore, tho most impudent proposition that has been futroduced In Congress by Southowy, Urigadiers and Northern doughfaces since they came Iuto power, Have we come to this, that members of Congress can adyycate o measure to roward an unfalthful vilicer for losing a battle and nearly destroying the army through Inaubordination, disobedience of orders, and refusal to fight? Suppose that this corps of 12,000 veteran Infantry, be- sides cavalry and artillery, making splen- didly equipped force of 15,000 nen, had been under the command of Gen.

For this conduct, for this grogs disobedience und disloyalty, he should have been shot, after he was found guilty by the court-martial, instead of being restored to the army with a reward of 860,000 for his treachery, 2 Instend of this we hinve the spectacle of this disloyal and unsoldlerly ofticer hanging about Washington, while the ex-Rebels In Congress are taking measures to thank hin for his treacherous conduct by restoring hhn to the army and paylng hint $60,000 for Nis treasonable nections. it would be mueh more satisfactory to the North, if thisamotnt, $s fo be tnken ont of the National Treasury, to pay itto the ‘helrs of Lee, or Stonewall Jackson, or Johnstun, who were open and candid in thelr fighting. Loyal men would rather see soine hard fighting Rebel General restored to the army than Porter, who fought against it while In it, ‘The definnee of tho court-martial, of the President, of tho Con- stitution, and of all the rules of war con- tained In this proposition, is simply devilish, and shows only too well the spirit: that actu- ates the Democratic party and the Infamous- Jy distuyn! legislation it would ennet had tt the complete p lon of the Government. ——_——— TILE-DRAINAGE BADLY NEEDED IN COOK , COUNTY, Wo print in Tae Tiunune an article by W. I. Chamberlatn, of. Ohio, on the subject uf tile-drainage ag applied to cold, wet clay Jands, Wo have published heretofore much yulunblo information concerning the benell- cin! effuets of systematic tile-dralnage upon the farming-lands of the prairio States; but tho essay we print to-day has an especlal bearing upon the cold, wet clay Iands of Ohio and other States. In Ohio, sv uncertain have been the crops on stiff clay lands for so many years that farms have béen given over to pasturages but this has ceased to be proilta- ble, ‘The writer points out a, plece of nine neres of clay land which fatled to support two cows, but which, since it was tiled, hag become most remarkably proliiic in Its prod- vet of grain and hay. ‘The statements made by the writer are the results of experlence, and leave no reo for ‘question that tile-dr&iage in a single year will give an Inerease of!'yleld, even to stlit, cold, clay land, that will pay the whole cost of tiling. ‘ We pubilsh this paper for the general np- pliteation of the facts it contalns, and also for tho direct bearing it has on the lund of this county, Cool County fs: one of the largest Inextent In the State, containing nearly 1,000 square mnlles. "Phe tand is valued very high, aud pays heavy taxes, but this valuation ts due far more to-its contlgulty to Chiengo than to Its productivencss, In which latter respect it falls far below tho overage of the -countles of tho State. Persons approaching Chicago, oxcept fromthe north, are surprised at tho wide extent of Jand which fs uncultivated, and are more sur 1 prised to know that the Innd which seems fairand fortite is not cultivated beenuse It will not produce enough ta pay tho gost, With the exception of a few townships In tho northern purtof the county, tho clay soll is so literally water-soaked that It cannot pro- duce a respectable crop.
