The usual moaotony otctmp life was
broken yesterday moroing .by the march Of
Gen, olusrsFe,'s Brigade, il thejmidst ef a
tpelting, blusteriug little snow storm. The
gallant boys did not seem tohseds the war
ring elements, however. but Keeping step
to that glorious music of the Union, which
burns With suehf hsea sity q pom tHealtar Of
their noble hearts, they left US shouting
and cheering as they went.
The General goes to Romnsy, we be-
lieye, for the, purpose Of msking q grand
scout in the country roundabont. He will
undoubtedly do his whole duty, as he is an
experienced military man. Heis French.
man by birth and education, and has serv-
ed his native country with great destiuc-
ton, both in Africa and during the Crfmeau
war. Heis splendid specimen of physi-
cal manhood, aud 10 courage, conduct aud
10 general appearance, show every inch a
soldier. SUGGEST we say, to the gallant
Frank and his noble boys 90. ~

Our little oblong Valley is al present a
Soldier city" of from ten to - thous-
aud men Gen Milroy, Of course, Is still
in command and ii is owing TO this, per-
h4ps, tlstwe near nothing of ''Winter
quarters, y yet, before giving in" TO the
icy king. Al ali events, If anything can
be done III these mountains, during the
present season, the people may rest as
suFed that "old Grey nagle" will do IL.
If some ofour great Generals conld have
one half Nilroy,s energy infused into them,
they would not only ten fold more than
God ever gave them, but enough, also to
move tho great armies of tho Republic on
to certain victory. The President aud
Senate can do no better service to the
country than by giving Gen. Milroy Ma
jor Generals commission with the imme.
date command of ii department. If great
aud gallant services would have secured
this he would have received it long ago;
while If the almost, II not quite, upapimous
voice of bis command would give such pro-
motion he would not wait for it au hour.
Long, long live the noble hearted Ailroy !
