General Robert NJ. Lee has been made Commanding
General of the Confederate Army.
General Gatln is said to have been ordered to Rich.
mond having been relieved from his post at Goldsboro'
which is now filed by Gen. Anderson. There is much
blame LAST upon General Gatlin by rumor and the pa
pers, in connection with the affair at Newb IN. Gen
Gatn owes it TO his reputation and to the country
to ask for investigation, if one not already ordered
In the present juncture negligence is hardly
cusable than treason, and the people in humour
to palliae failure to do all that be done
But then the people must not expect than can be
done nor, by judging without examination do injustice
those n the public service who may have acted for
the best, whether it so turned out or not.

Why is this? Why should experienced officers not
profit by their experience when they can II there be
anything that Withstand iron-cad gun-boats it IS
these casemdd batteries and if they built OF
earth with wooden embrazures let these embrazlres be
roacad also. This can be done with railroad iron mst
ef5cualIy, and at small cost. The batteries Or Big
Island and at old Brunswick should each have few
guns covered, and if armed with or 10 inch coun-
bads the iron plated gunboats cannot pass up the riUer
it they should be fortunate get inside our

SOMETIMES defeats turn out to be blessings in dis
guse and victories prove to be the occasion OF seri-
ous and lasting injury Manassas entailed upon us
sluggish defensive system with lazy sefconfdence-
be success of the Merrmac, for which all the credit
due the science and energy of the Naval Constructor
and Engineer. has entaed the nrotracte sonno-
lence OF Secretary of the Navy Mallory. who never
would have been confirmed but for tie raid of the Mer
rimac She saved Malory-but fear she did not save
the service She smashed the " dead lumber of the
Federal Navy but petpetuated the same kind ofumber
10 our own Navy department
Unless almost super-human energy is used to push
forward the construction of such vessels and also oi
proved means of Defense the success of the Merrmac
will turn out to be ruinous in its consequences, since
the North with open ports, any amount OF iron, and nc
end of skilled labor, turn out such things Gd 6ltun
and aU1H do it.
The truth is that this like all other of the kind
must, to be successful, be peoples war the people
must not wait altogether for government They must
think, plan, devise and execute all of them bringing
something to the common cause-gving his account OF
some enemy or forwarding scheme OF offtnse and
