fEOWESDAY MORNING JUNE 10th
RN
Gus. HvoKyn.s—The late retiring of Gen.
*"Hooker behind the Rappahannock was the
signal for all the eroakers in Ametican chris
tendum to come out-and fill the air with,
their dismal sounds. Of course, the McClel\anites were tompant. Theit chief was
“thrust in the face of the Administration
wogain, and a great commnaad demanded for
im. Cr ticiams on ‘Ges. Hooker could
be had gratuitously on ev
sorts of stories about his movements, — ‘nd
proofs of his incompetency, were thick as
— plackberries, George Wilkygs brs taken up
. his pen to inake the croakers hunt thejr holes,
and. he lays about him most vigorously.
te scies has pevntier ene for informapo be et te. all Ati ‘ed him. He
pointa to the various strategic movements
of Hooker, by which he deceived the enet: y,
eroséed the Rappahannock, turned the im-~
pregnable fortifications of Fredericksburg un
which the art of fortification had been exhausted, and compelled Gen. Lee to come
out and meet him on equal ground,as an ev~
idence of the greut military genius ‘of Hook~
er. He did what no other general had done,
and his plan of byttle Wilkes puts up as su_ perior. He held a key position and would
pave succeeded but for the treachery or
cowardice of Howard's division. Sheltered
behind breastwurks and oceupying the must
g Smpertenk podition ae the field. when the ené emy made their appearance, these troops
threw down their arms and ran without fir“ing a shot. Had they stood bravely to their
posts the reb-la must have been defeated.
As it was Hooker was obliged to modify hit
“plan and form bis ariny again on less advantageous ground, Still he had the rebels apparently tu bis own advantage. But Stoneman was not heard frum. -Averill had not
kept up the promised communication.
Sedgwick, too had mado a blunder in storining the beights of Fredericksburg and then
votiring behind the river. But the worst ca~
lamity and ene which no wilitary genius
could be responsible for, and one which none
but an All Seeing Eye could foresee, was a
storm of rain that awe'led the. streams, broke
—Joose the povtoons and threatened to cut of
the supplies, of -onr brave agny. Hooker
‘prudently recrossed ‘the river. Safely a
hundred thousahd men were recrossed with~
out losé, and nut demuralized.It was in-acs
case of any untureseen event like that of a
rainstorm. It wasa grievous dissppoint—ment te Hooker to forego the pleasure of
ppaww tal the rebel army, but he retired as
became a great captain to bide his tiine.
~The fault was in great measure in the under éffivera. Had Howard's division behaved as it should, the rebel army must have
been overthrown. Had Hooker been informed of the movements of his cavalry in
the direction of Richmond he would have
had not the glements which no man can‘ control conspired eeainst hin, victory would
~ have perched on our banners. Such is tite

ments of Gen. Hooker iu the rear of Freder.
icksburg. We believe he is right. We be«
‘lieve in Hooker. He bas been one of the
grand heroes of this war, and America is
_ proud of her gallant son. He has been in
lights to ride, leaden rain. and iron hail have
no terrore for him. He is a glorious hero,
and History hngers to write his deeds
We trust the affrighted foo will yet see the
_ gleam of his victorious sword from the Rappshannock to the Gulfof Mexico.
Supreme Cour'r.—It is understood that
the name of Lorenzo Sawyer will be presented in the State convention for Judge of the
Supreme Court. He is Judge of one of the
Judicial Districts of San Francisco, is a
_ thorough, careful, sound, and rehable man,
and a perfect gentleman. Asa lawyer and
judge he stands high in the estimation of the
bar. Judge Sawyor was formerly a resident
_of Nevada, and, notwithstanding the migrations of his friends, he has still some true
