No little noise hae BEN made on

the proposition % creste the Brevet
rank Of Lieutenant General. and It is
high time we should say something on
the subject. There are two views to
be considered: Firssly, ss TO profit,
and Secondly, - to honor. The first
consideration is decidedly the most
important and on that ground we have
no objection. to as many as dozen
titles being introduced at a time
The fact il, 20 common have I'LL titles
become, from Esquire down. that it is
important some few new ones should
be invented, 10 award rare military
talent" with what it is entitled to. A
rosette or blue ribbon It is thought
might suffice, but the objection to this
would soon be met with the argument
that this is free country. and man
may wear whatever be will pay, or
promise to pay for; and if merits
were awarded with either medals or
ribbons, they would soon become az
common in the public thoroughfares
as pug noses" This would not do
There would be no exclusiveness about
it, and its force and virtue would soon
become lost.
The highest officers in Uncle Sans
invincible military, has fixed salary
which barely suftices for him to mock
nobility, and for this reason a new
title should be bestowed, with q new
salary to support the new dignitary, as
becomes the simplicity Of republican
institutions. This would afford parti-
Fans in Congress, an opportunity u
reward the merit of their own military
chiettians, if none others. This seems
to bea serious stumbling block not
only 10 the councils Of the nation, but
in the State legislatures. Patriots
desperate in their efforts, to show the
country how much they love it, will
make all kinds of moves, to in
crease the pay and emoluments Of those
in authority, with no other motive we
imagine than to let them show the
world "what they can do;' Mr..
McKay's beautiful bill about Judicial
sales, at which we took look the
other day, is one ofthis class. 1t is to
be marvelled at. that the party out OF
power, and therefore wrong, should
keep throwing obstacles in the way
Of such as are in and therefore fright
siae-up.' The office seeking profess
sion is very similaato wife seeking
The young gent asks to know how
much the place is worth, and regula-
ties his ambition accordingly. 1t is
folly to give a man titles of nobility,
Or create an office without adequate
funds for the occupant to carry about
on his back, the dignity theoeof, in
the quality Of his coat and the chast-
ness of his mushroom colored pants.
What, may we ask would the world
be without clothes, (do not blush young
|adies.) Thomas Carlyle the great
English Essayist has asked the ques-
ion and written book in answer
Cloths are every thing-all orders Of
society would be at an end, were it
not for tailors and mantua- makers.-
There would be no difference in forked
Dipeds, ii it were not for them. Is
not man respected in accordance
With the quality and quantity of cloth
With which he covers himself? OF
course. And it is for this reason, we
ay create the Lieutenant Generalship
md appropriate funds to support it,
Until it gets to be as com nolbas the
word Ho,.orubIe' itself.
