EDITORS LRADER:-General Harney is re-
lieved from command of this military depart
ment, and is succeeded by General Lyon,
who commanded at the surrender of Camp
jackson on. the 10th inst. The considera-
tons which Influenced this change are not
definitely kuownb by the public, and of course
form the subject of much conjecture.
It's true that the official action of Cen
eral barney, since resuming command on the
18th inst, has dissipated former distrust Of
his loyalty, but has failed to inspire enthnsi-
astic confidence that be gives to the cause OF
his country the heart, Of q true patriot and
soldier This sentiment may be unjust. Be
that as it may; ity existence is unfavorable to
the efficiency Of his influence. Its not i'm
possible that be is somewhat moulded by the
strong pressure to which he, more than any
other man, is likely TO be exposed in this
quarter. The insidious influences Of associal
tons like those into which General Harney is
thrown, cannot be too thoroughly provided
against. The most shreKdT fTigilant and
sensitive loyalists here feel that General HaT-
ney1s; agreement Withasths State authorities
was begotten in temporiEing spirit, and that
while it would serve to avert Just penalties
/ from the heads of tie criminals, It would,
fail to bring proteetioD, TO the loyal and de-
fencels5 who are exposed to violence and
expulsion. Fresh, AdYiees from the inteTlor
1eaye- no doubt that there is real ground for
'uGT The az appointment Of Gea Lyon, d the L;
command Of, this Department gives the high
estsatisfaction to all true friends of the G0Fs
eminent. They feel that there is now no
possible 'dshger Of temporizing and that
nothing viii be done in any way to compro-
misc or position! or ,obstruct the objects 10
be achieved. =, sse,s sea go
