WASHINGTON. July IA.
To The Officers and Soldiers Of the Army Of VIZ
GINA:
By special asst gnment of the President of the
United States, have assumed command of this
army. 1 have been two weeks in learning your
whereabouts, your condition, and your wants, in
preparing you for active operations and in placing
you in positions from which you can act promptly
and to the purpose. | have come TO you from
the West, where We have always seen the backs
of our enemies; from an army whose business il
has been to seek the adversary and to beat him
when found, whose policy has been attack and
not defense. In but one instance has the enemy
been able to place our Western army in a defen-
sive attitude. Ipresume that have been called
here to pursue the same system, and to lead you
against the enemy.
Ii is my purpose to do so and that speedily.
am sure you long for opportunity TO win the
distinction YOU are capable of achieving. That
opportunity l shall endeavor to give you. Mean
time desire you to dismiss from your minds
certain phrases which am sorry to find much in
vogue among you. | hear constantly of taking
strong positions and holding them, of line OF re-
treat and of basis of supplies. Let Us discard
such ideas.
The strongest position soldier should desire
to occupy is one from which he can most easily
advance against the enemy. Let Us study the
probable line of retreat of our opponents, and
leave our own to take care of itself Let Us look
before us and not behind us. Success and glory
are in the advance; disaster and shame Turk in
the rear
Let Us act on this understanding. and it is safe
To predict that your banners shall be inscribed
with many glorious deed, and that your names
will be dear to your countrymen forever.

ing recess of Congress.
