SKnFuL TAG les. We find in letter from
private In the 10th Mass. Regt the following ac-
count of piece Of skilful management by Gen.
Couch, when operating near Williamsport, direct
ly after the battle of Antietam. The enemy, it
viii be remembered, had Il large force in that Vi
cinity, whose intentions were for some time doubt
full The letter says:
We got to within two miles and half Of Will
Transport at about 8 P. NJ. on aturday, when We
ran on to tn rebels General Couch formed his
division in line Of battle, making vi hole brigade
out Of one new regiment, and made it seem as if
VIC had three times the force there was there.
There was some shelling by the rebels, but not a
cannon was fired on our side, and only one Of our
men killed. the First Rhode Island Regiment
We marched back in line about half mile, to get
better position, and after posting pickets lay
there till morning.
GAS soon as General Couch ran upon the rebels
he sent for rel fo cements. They arrived at about
O'Clock Sunday morning, and at daylight went
on towards Wiamsport, but the rebels had left
during the uisht. The people around them, said
that there was force of seventy or ei9 hty thou
sand ri rebels there the night before, and they
thought our whole force ,oas there.

has all the air OF commonplace, and all the force
and powers of genius. 1t can change sides with
a heypresto movement, and be at all points of the
compass, while talent is pondero Asly and learnedy
siftii g single point. Tolent calculates clearly,
reasons logically, makes out case as clear as day
light and utters It's oracles with all the weight Of
justice and reason. Tact refutes without contra
d citing, puzzles the profound with profundity, and
without wit outwits the wise Set them together
on for popularity, pen in hand, and tact will
distance talent by half the course. Talent brings
to market that VIII ch j. wantsd; tact produces
that which is wished for. Talent instructs; tact
enlightens Talent leafs where no one follows !;
tact follows where the humor leads. Talent is
pleased that 1t ought to have succeeded; tact is
delighted that it has succeeded. Talent tolls for
posterity which will never repay it; tact throws
away no pains, but catchesths passion If the pass
ing hodr. Talent builds for eternity tact on
short lSase, and gets good interest. Talent is GER
tainly very fine thing to Ia k about, a very good
thing to be proud of, a very glorious eminence to
look down from but tact is useful, portable, ap-
plicable, always alive, ways alert always market
able: it is the talent of tlents, the avaableness
of resources, the apple bility Of power, the eye
of discrimination, the right hand Of intellect.

TACT AND TALENr.--In cap tai book of essays
and Sketches now having it., run of pO; ;uarity in
England, we find the following musing Of-hand
portra ture of tact and t lent Tn writer re og-
nizes the just distinction tween thes, two quail
ities. Tact in is highest manifestation we have
always consid I'd as only little short of sbso-
lutte genius. j".~a ID 81 1ai
Talent is something; but tact Is everything.
Talent is serious, sober, grave and ,es"ectable; !;
tact is all that and more too 1t is not seventh
Sc Sc, but the life of all the five. 1t is the open
eye, the quick ear, the judging taste, the ke n
sme, and the lively touch: is the interpreter of
all rdd es-the surm cubter of all d f6culties-the
remover o all obstacles. 1t isuseful n all places
and at all times; &. is useful in solituds, for it
shows man his way III ough the world. Talent
is power-tact is skill; talent is weight-tact is
momentum: talent knows what to tact knows
how to do it talent makes! a. man respectable
tact viii make hin re pected: talent is wealth
tact is ready money. For all the practical purposes
of life tact carries Il against talent-tea to one.
Tai mt makes the world wonder that il gets on n
fastertact excites astonishment that it gets on so
fast ID the secret is that it has no ght to r
ry; it makes NO false steps-t hits he right nail

"We cannot but feel little mortified, at seeing
exploits like these repe ted by rebel leaders, and
SO seld ON achieved by US. If of no other value,
they are of great service in keeping up the spirit
of the rebel army and people. Turchin and Mitch
