United Stake that at thin very interviting crisis of
their education as a poople they hare a teacher so
well qualified se I uneral Scum This veteran
well knows the strength and also the weakness of Ina
countrymen. And having undertaken to gather up
the elements of public force which the enthusiastic

patriotism of the North has placed at Mr.
List:oo.'4 &slime!, and discharge them on the
rebellious South, he is in a position to
command an attentive hearing. The fine old
snider, like &xi., from his shoulders upward
higher than any of the people, has served his
country in many a battle, in which he has never
retreated, never met with any reveres, and
be insists now on tillowing the same rules
which he has hitherto found so safe. The lesson
be teaches is patience. lie says to his countrymen:
We have abundance of men and money, and in
due time we shall have abundance of the muni-
bow, of war. But we want time to make our
volunteers into soldiers—ties to organize the
counsimariat and baggage trains—time so to
arrange every department of the army that we
may be obis to predict every day's work weeks
