MAJOR GENERAL HALLHCK

The fact that Major General HalIeck pro-

Quartermaster Generaf1deigs) will do much
to rsassure the public with reference to the re-
suit OF the great battle expected soon to come
of either in Culpeper or Orange county, Va
Though he cannot know as much Of "the stu
alton" there as General Mcclellan did, his de-
scrvcdiy high reputation as strategist must
assure all that his presence in the front at this
time will assist Gen. Burnside greatly. The
latter certainly has all the dash McClelIan's
emf mies accuse him of being deficient in: while
Halleck is, next TO Mcclellan, perhaps the best
straiegist in the service. Between the two,
therefore, there can be- no reason whatever to
doubt that with prompt, vigorous movements
