There are, without doubt, many servi.
ceable fire aims, in the hands OF the peo
pie ; which scientific officers would con.
denim, as inefficient tools for the art Of
war ; but there should oe no desponden.
cv, when men are animated by a brave
spirit, and necessity silences repining. II
Enfield rides, and the heavy musket, with
their piercing bsyonets, are not to be pro
cured, let us employ our shot guns
and old fashioned rifles; remembering
that they are familiar to our hands.
These should be brought into requis,ion,
and their number ascertsined,' by the cf
ficers charged with the military organiza
ton of the State.
1t is to be feared that there is still n
dangerous disproportion between the
number Of our fighting men, and the
means Of armng them even with these
inferior weapons. In the public effort 10
bring them al! into service, there NAV be
some reluctance to place private arms at
the disposal Of the Government. Patri
otism and enthusiasm in our cause viii!
sustain our Government, in any compul
sorry measures, which the public necessity
may require but the obligations of duty,
and the force of general law shonld be
superadded to the impulses Of feeling.
Concentration Of strength depends on
knowledge Of our resources, and def
ciencies. The realities must be cnlmlv
surveyed. for there is more danger in ig
norance Of our actual position, than in
any exposure Of facts. Unfounded
hopes lead to miscalcula,iSns, more peril,
ous in action, than false fears. The truth
will give confidence to real courage, and
patriotic resolve. Intellect is superior to
physical and material power and the
judicious use Of our force, such as it may
really be, will be more effective, than
speculations on uncertainties, or the most
scientific plans with inadequate means Of
execution.
