OUR ANTIQUE GENERALS.

The rebellion which we seek 10 put
down, is guided and governed by young
and vigorous men. The rebel chiefs are
in the prime 0, manhood. They are nei
ther boys nor octogtnarians, but possess
the ardor aud activity Of youth, tempered
by the prudence and experience Of middle
age.
How can we expect with hopes Of sue
cess, TO encounter these robust and daring
leaders, until we pit against them, men Of
youth, vigor and elasticity. Gen. Scott
who has been an extraordinary man in his
day, has gracefully yielded the manage
mcnt Of The grand army Of the East to the
hands Of his talented pupil, Gen. McClel-
Ian, and contents himself with giving the
latter the benefit Of his counsel and ripe
experience. Ii would be well for the
country If several other chiefs of the mill
tary administration, who have no pretext
on the score OF former greatness for lag
giug superauous on the stage would fol-
low the example Of the illustrious veteran,
and permit younger and fresher men TO
discharge the ardaous duties Of their res
pectivc departments.
The public peril is too great, and th j,
matter az stake too momentous TO permit
individuals TO stand in the way Of the ma
iional good and public safety. The work
ing, executive period Of human life termi-
mates of three score and ten. The facul-
ties Of many men fail at sixty. A very
few retain their mental and physical vigor
IN considerable perfection till seventy
Bu, after that. little ought to be expected
or exacted from them IN the way Of labor.
Al the risk Of frightening our loyal
readers, We viii slate the ages Of those
who are now responsible for the military
administration Of the naiion, below the
President and Secretary Of War, neither
