Burnside and his Generals.
GENERAL BURNSIDE.


Gtheral Burnside is hungry enough for
glory, a. II soldier should be, hut he il not
sell. sufficient or an Overcuniident man. If
he is entcrprlsing he is cautious. He is
careful enough in preparation, but he knows
that after preparation he is expected to
fight, and fighting is expected to win. To
say that he is able TO Inaneuver on the field
OF battle two hundred thousand men, train.
cd in modern tnctics, is to suy that he is
able To do what no inan on this continent
has been thought capable Of But one
man in history has been thoroughly believed
to be colnpctent IN strategy on SO immense
a scale But that, on "a battle scene of vast
dimensions General Burnside vii fail to
know the moment when reserves shall be
sent to the help of the right grand
division under Sumner, or the left grand
division under Franklin, Or the center grand
division under Hooker, is To believe that
he has not deserved the command he has
held and tho succHsses he Ia, won. H,
has none Of those baieiul military iealousi1s
which sacrifice armies aud cause, lest the
honors OF victory may bo reflected upon Il
rival. II the supports he orders be march
ing to victory, they will be forwarded with
hearty speed, not only without one oang of
envy from hun, but with all Il pltriot's 10y.

Touching Farewell Address.


Orpheus g. Kerr thus writes to the Sun
day Mercury:
But the whole body of Mackerels, sane
and insane alike, unite in feeling of strong
anguish blended with enthusiasm, at the
removal of the beloved General of the Mack
erel Brigade. He has been SO much faith
err 10 them all, that they never expected to
get step further while he was with them.
There's riece Of domestic philosophy
for you, my boy.
When the General heard of his removal,
my boy, he said that it was like divorcing a
husband from wife who had always sup
ported him, and Immediately let fly the fol.
