A Good Suggestion.

The New York Herald suggest that
General Halleck should AZ once apply 20
Gen. Stuart's rebel cavalry the same rule
which he has enforced against newspaper
correspondents. and that they be eZciud-
ed wholly from the lines of u army
They certainly get a great deal more val
liable information than our Press could
give them. especially if the report Is true
that they dashed in one morning and
seized all General Pope's baggage, private
paper. charts. maps, etc. including Gen
eral Halleck's dispatches, plans Of the
campaign. and specific instructions about
newspaper correspondents. Something
of the energy and vigilance so lavishly
used in preventing the loyal people OF the
country from knowing what their army Is
doing, might be usefully bestowed on the
rebel cavalry.

The Progress of the war.

more energy and vitality than there was
reason to suppose it was possible for them
to do, In their very embarrassed and hope
less condition. Apparently having grown
tired of defensive warfare, they have be-
come the aggressors on every field. See
ing cur hesitancy in boldly attempting to
take Richmond, they begin to doubt GU
ability to do it at all. and seem TO have
concluded that if we cannot take their
capital, they possibly can take ours. and

rapid da-hes and bold surprizes is the tac-
tics they employ so successfully. They
suddenly appeared before Pope's army
on Tuesday night. of last week, 3o,00C
strong, having marched 20 miles in two

they cannot afford to run such extraordi-
