1t is estimated that sixty thousand mil
lions Of dollars were wasted in Germany
alone by this svs,em of warfare.
Now Jim Lane doubtless has the will
to initate the great Duke Of FIiedland.
Put HIM in command Of an army and
he will doubtless deliver over tue people
Of Missouri to unrestrained pillage.
Nor will be be at all scrupulous about
the character OF the person to be pill
laged. All will be good fish that comes
to his net. The possession Of veil
filed barn or a drove Of fat hogs will be
with him prima facie evidence Of re-
bellious proc ivities, and after few
months OF such warfare it may be said
Of him as the Germans said of the Ro-
mans, "HLciunt sol,tud,nem, cocdnt
pacens." We trust that the Government
will put salutary restraint upon the con
queror Of jenkins, that he will be re-
quired to observe the rules of civilized
warfare, even in dealing with rebels,
and that be will in no case be en-
dowed with plenary power to lay waste
and desolate the State Of Missouri, he
only being the jadge Of the loyalty Of
its Inhabitants.

& CONGRESSIONAL ABUSE OF THE
REGULAR ARMY,

In the debate in the Senate Of the
United States on the 7th inst, on
Sherman's bill to increase the number
Of cadets, Mr.. Trumbull, Of Illinois, op-
posed the passage Of the bill. "IIe be
lieved it was owing to West Point Off
GERS that the war has langu she'd as it
has. II West Point MAS abolished, mil
i,ary tactics would be taught all over
the country
Mr.. Lane, Of Kansas, said "the great
est trouble was, that We have no Board
to separate the stupid from those who
have brains. The greatest trouble we
have is the stupidity OF army officers
and their want of common sense
Such language i'll BELTS the mouths OF
grave Senators of the United States.
This is no time to depreciate the skill
Of those who arc doing the country good
service. With all due Difference to
Senators Lane and Trumbull, We assert
that but for Yves, Point and its gr-du-
ates. our country would now be without
skillful engineers and experienced sol
diers. The art Of war is a science
which cannot lie taught in few months
as some men seem to think, and the
estimation in which West Poiut gradu-
ates are held, is shown by the anxiety
,nanifested by our volunteer regiments
to place a West Pointer in command
whenever it te practicable. We are
glad to see that Senator Grimes, of this
State, deprecated such language, and
was quite ready to acknowledge the
merit of an Institution founded by the
Father Of his Country, and which
always had the warmest appreciation o.
the veteran Scott.
