From the Southern Christian Advocate. I
Drunken Army Officers.

Drunken Army Officers.
A few months since, there was so loud
an outcry against drunkenness in the
army, that stills were stopped, groceries
closed, severe regulations made aud en-.
forced by provost marshals against pri.
Gates, and high hopes excited among our
people, that, whatever else ight happen,
drunkenness at least would not lose us
our liberties. But an officer is not as q
common soldier. If reports are true, Of
ficers-oflicers high in command driuk-
officers on the field, leading men into
battle, are so drunk that they have no
sense or discretion left So rumor says
she asserts that our failure to accomplish
all that was hoped for at Richmond is
due to drunken officers. Worse-men
were led like sheep to the slaugher, by
drunken Generals.
Are these thirgs sol The country has
right to ask the question, and to de.
mdnd an answer. The people have yet
more sacred rights. They have a right
to demand that every officer in our army,
who is ever intoxicated be cashiered al
once. We are willing to give our all for
I'berty-offer our sons upon the altar Of
our country-bM not TO have their lives
thrown away that some intoxicated brute
may gain the credit Of assaul,ing batter
les. In the name of the country, we de
mand it Of our authorities, TO see to it,
that we have none but sober leaders in
the camp and on the battle field.
How our soldiers hare been led to GER
tain death We my learn from one who
VAS in the last attack upon McClellau's
rear guard, when our army was disas.
,rousiy repulsed. A correspondent Of the
Savannah Republican says:
"Gen. Magruder is very generally, and
justly, blamed with the Encouragement
Of the battle Of Tuesday. lst July. He
was not upon the field. and an officer on
Acting Brigadier General Auderson's
staff, says that Gen. Magruder was under
a hill behind big walnut tree twenty
feet in circumference ! Other officers of
high standing say he acted more like
madman than General commanding in
great battle. One thing is certain, he
did not understand the nature Of the
ground or the strength and position Of
the enemy. His only idea seemed TO be
to take the battery and his only com
mand'was Forward /! Charge the Bate
yT AS before stated, brigade after
brigade was ordered in without any more
definite Object than that battery was
to be taken. In this way troops were
nassed, and hundreds were mown down
and the advanced columns were repeat
edly thrown into confusion by the FIRE of
those in the rear. l hear il. on very high
authority, that Gen. Magruder was the
next morning relieved" Of his command;
whether for inability or to 60 West, l
will not say positively. One thing, how.
ever, will say, though, and that is, /
hope the brigade to which belong may
never have to 60 into battle again under
his leadership"
A wise conclusion ! Heaven help any
brigade that may be under such leader
ship II these statements be true, he
ought to be court mar,iaIed and cash.
iered-if not, indeed, shot for his own
n'isdeeds, and as an example to others Of
like character.

Forgive Us, As Wo Forgive. +"

lE the Middle Ages, when the great
lords and knights were always at war
with each other, one of them resolved to
revenge himself upon a neighbor who
had offended him. 1t chsnced that on
the very evening when he had made this
resolution, be heard that his enemy was
to pass near bis castle, with only very
few men with him. 1t was good op.
portunity to take his revenge, and he de.
termined not TO let it pass. lie spoke Of
this plan in the presence Of his chaplain,
who tried in vain to persuade him TO
give it up. The good man said great
deal to the duke about the sin OF what
he was going 10 do, but in vain. At
lergtb, seeing tba. all his words had no
effect, he said, "My Lord, since cannot
persuade you to give up this plan Of
yours, will you at least consent to come
with ne to the chapel, that we may pray
together before you goi' The duke
consented, and the chaplain and he kneit
together in prayer. Then the mercy-lov-
ing Christian said 10 the reveneefu war
rior, "Will you repeat after me, sentence
by sentence, the prayer which our Lord
Jesus Christ himself taught to His Gisci
Piles
81 will do it," replied the duke
lie did it accordingly. The chaplain
said sentence, and the duke repeated
it'll he came to the petition, Forgive
us our trespasses, as we forgive them that
trespass against u.s." There the duke
was silent.
my lord duke. you are SILENT" said
the chaplain. "Will you be SO good ss
to continue to repeat the words after me,
II you dare to do so ?-"Forglve us our
trespasses, as we forgive them that tres
pass sgainst u.s."
g! cannot" replied the duke.
swell. God cannot forgive you, for He
has said SO. He Himself has given us
this prayer. Therefore you must either
give up your revenge or give up saying
this prayer for to ask God to pardon
you as you pardon Others, is to ask him
to take vengence on you for all your
sins. Go now, my lord and meet your
victim. God will meet you at the grea.
day Of judgment"
The iron will Of the duke was broken.
"No," said he, 81 will finish my prayer:
My God, my Father, pardon me for.
give me as / desire to forgive him who
has offended me; lead me no, into temp.
talioD, but deliver me from evil +"
"Amer," said the chaplain.
"Amen," repeated the duke, who now
understood the Lords Prayer better than
he had ever done before, since he had
learned 70 apply it to himself.
