The qualities requisite for a .su,

Napoleon, il combating,S in tho Coun4l
Of State, proposition to confne to militl-
~ men his iavorite institution, the Legih
of Honor, gavs the following as the roqIi.
site qualities lor great general, No ale
has given birth 70 man better qualified 10
for a correct opinion on such subject.4-
More accurate, probably, than any other
man that has ever lived, was his knowledge
Of the wOrkings0t the human heart and Of
the agents whichwere most powerful in d.
recting andleadilg the multitude.
"What is It SOW which constitutes a
great general 7 II is not the mere strenth
ola man six feethigh, but the corp Dell,
the habit Ofioresght, the power olthought
and calculation in word, civil Qualities,
not such as you find in a lawyer, but such
as are founded on knowledge of human
nature, and are suited to the government Of
armies. The general who can now
achieve great things is he who is possessed
Of shining civil qualities it is their percep-
ton Of the strength Of bis talents which
makes the soldiers obey him. Listen to-
them at their bivouacs you will invariably
find them award the preference to mental
over physical qualities. MOurad Beywas

could have been their leader. When he

Mississippi Regiment.

Major Dix, Of the Paymaaer's depart
nent and Lieut.. Mcdowell cid to General
Woo, reached Vicksburg on last Thurs.
day, bringing marching orders for the Mis-.
sissippi Regiment. The steamer M. B.
Hamer was chartered 10 convey 500 Of the
troops to New Orleans. She left here
about sunrise last Saturday morning and we
presume that they left Vicksb&g on tho
evening Of that day. The remainder Of
the troops were to take passage on some
Otherboat.
The Sentinel says that Major Dix COM

COMMUNICATED.

Mr.. Editor.-The old Board of Select.
men, at the request of the citizens, passed
on the 2nd day of January last, resolution
requiring that all of that portion of the SID
walks unpavedon Main and Runnells streets,
from Jefferson street to the river, shouldbe
forthwith dene. Said resolution has nd
yet been carried into effect, neither indeed
is there any visible prospect ofsuch move
Will you therefore, through the columns o.
your paper, please ask ofthe present Board
and the Mayor especially, why said resOu'
ton has been so long neglected. The costs
of paving is paid by the owners of proper.
ty in the rear, and consequently they can.
not in this, as they do in all other matteH

FORTH OF JULY CELEBRATE

FOTRTH OF JULY CELEBRATION
Mr.. EditOr.-We had an interesting
time on the ever memorable FOURTH, neaI
the residence of Mr.. Philip Hilderbrand il
the neighborhoOd Of McArtey's Ferry
Upwards of 800 persons, Notwithstanding
the unfavorable morning, assembled at ID
early hour. The Declaration Of IndepeBI
dence was read in clear and audible voiu
by DR.. Joel C. Rice, and then followed ID
Grafton, which was delivered by Mr.. job
H. Davis, who for nearly an hour enchaj
ed the attention of his audience in stra
Of thrilling eloquence. Some Of bis alb
siOns were most happy-particularly bis D
fusion to the deeds Of our gallant army
the Rio Grande, and to the generous sach'
ices of our brave volunteers, who have d
all the endearments Of home and enlisted
in the service of their COT ntry.
When Mr.. Davis concluded his address
the assemblage retired to the dinner tablF
which literally grOaned beneath the samP
tuods viands 50 prOluseiy spread upon
and those choice delicacies which told ths
the patriotic ladies had not been idle.
Butone circumstances occuredtO mar us

The President.

In every official act of the President
since his elevation to the station which he
now occupies is left the impress of wise
and patriotic statesman. 1t is true that he
has been Denounced and his Administra.
ton has beea characterised as feeble and
inefficient BY some Of the most violent Of
the opposition papers, and by Partizans,
but what is the testimony Of one Of the
leaders Of thht party, their quandpm favor.

From the Rio Grande.

At our latest accounts from the Rio
Gfande, Gen. TaylOr's army remained in
the same condition as at previous dates.
No further information relative to tho in.
tended movements Of the Mexican Amy
had been developed. They have strenEth
ened the defences Of the town Of Monterey
and its approaches, stationed large brce
there, and there is no doubt but at that point
they intend to make = desperate resistance.
It is stated that Gen. Taylor intends adj
vancing, as soon as al necessary prepare
tons are made, towards that place. Hs
viii establish his depot q ComargO. Th'
Mexicans, to prevent the supply Of PrOvi
siOns for the American Army in that coun
try, are driving off al the cattle from th'
neighbOring region.
A small party Of the gallant Texas Ran
gers, under Capt. McCuIloCh, recently cap
tured two officers belonging to Canales
banda at a Mexican taDdangO, in the neigh
borhOOd Of RynOsO. A Mexican office
was also captured At Matamoras shOr
time since-having rem bout tina
city after it was taken. sent t.
New Orleans by order Of Gen. Taylor.
Many heavy rains have fallen in the re.
giOn Of country where the American army

California.

M. de MOfras in bis work on Mexico de-
Scribes California as possessing an excel.
lent and healthy climatic soil, fertile
and commercial facilities unlimited. The
Democratic Review publishes number Of
passages on this point from which we col.
lectthe following:
"The salubrity Ofthe country is such that
the diseases Of the inhabitants are always
independent Of mate.influences."
$3.50 - So
clipper California, from San Diego to
La BOdega, along an extent Of coast Of two
hundred leagues, enjoys a tempera.
ture analogous to that Of Valencia, lin
Spain) and the finest regions of the Medi.
terranean."
1t is beyond doubt, that so soon as an
intelligent and laboriOus population is es.
tablished there, this country will occupy an
elevated rank in the commercial scale it
would form the entrepOt where the coasts of
the Great Ocean would send their products
and would furnish the greatest part Of their
subsistence 10 grains to the North. West,
to Mexico, to Central America, to EcuadO,
to Peru, to the north coast of Asia, and to
many groups Of Polynesia, such as the Sand.
wich Isles, the Marquesas and Taiti."

Social Reform

Robert Owen the celebrated social re-.
former, in an article addressed to Ameri.
cans recently published in the Washington
Union says:
!" Let then, coming elections be, to SCI
cure universal education, beneficial occu.
patton, and local and general good govern
ment for ALL, amidst SUPERIOR instead
Of INFERIOR and MIXED external cir
cumstances.
The easy mode Of efFecting this change
now, in human existence from all that is
wrong in principle and practice to all that
is right in both, shall in due time be given
to the American public"

GEN. GAINES AND GEN. ScOTT.-Gen.
Gaines in his correspondence with the War
Department uses very strong language in
reference to Gen. Scott for having, as he
supPOses, "labored for more than quarter
of century past to cover me (him) with
calumny and defeat my (his) efforts to be
employed in any service likely to rebound
10 the safety and glory of the county,
He characterises himself as an "unpreten.
ding SOLDIER" and Gen. Scott as "politi-
cal tacticidn long accustomed to cringe in
and about the the political metropolis, sacri-
fcing the interest and honor of the service
at the shrine of that morbid THIRST for the
Presidency" Gen. Scott denies the charges
of Gen. Gaines and says: I" the remedies
for Gen. Gaines Irregularities arising main
ly, as am in charity bound to suppose,
from insanity or dOtage is to place him on
an indefinite leave Of absence" &c.

GENERAL GAINEs.-But few can cen.
sure the course Of the administration to-
wards this gallant veteran. Its bitterest
OpPOsers cannot assert in view of all the
circumstances, hat it has called him to &C.
count without sufficient cause. The Louis.
vile Journal says, " in looking over the
vOluminOus correspondence between Gen.
Gaines and the War Department, we see
abundant reason for thinking that the Gen.
eral ought to be assigned to some less res.
pOnsible station than that now assigned to
him. His intentions in assuming res.
possibilities not delegated to him, were IN.
doubdy gave, but good intentions sometimes
lead to unpleasant results a. was he case
in his ordering out volunteers without an.
