line Of it, as we know the Colonel 10 he en-
gagged heart and soul in crushing ont this
formidable rebellion lie is well deserving
of tho promotion recommended
We understand that q movement is ON foot re-
commanding the promotion Of Colonel Moses h.
Walker, Of the 3lst Ohio Regiment, To Brigadier-
ship. We are grauhod 10 learn that the merits OF
tins most excellent and capable officer have boen
thuS noticed 10y his brave companions IN arms, As
a public man in civil life, Colonel walker Is well
known IN Ohio as gentleman " refined culture,
oCuublemishcd integrity, ando Vt eminent ability.
Previous 10 the breaking out of the war, Colonel
Walker in compliance with his military taStos aud
bent of mind, had received an appointment in the
regular army, aud had pursued most asslduouSly
the study of military science ami tactics. Being
thus fitted for the duties ct the hold, he WAS COM
missioned as Colonel OF Volunteers and took COM
mani Of the 3lst Ohio, IN August, 1861, and has
held that rank ever since. lie is therefore, ono Of
the oldest COlonels by commission IN the Army of
the Cumberland. Colouel Walker has been act
my As BvigAdiCr since the evacuation of Cor
inth and has had command of the First Brigade of
Thomas Division nearly eight months. During
that time he has seen COlonels, his juniors by COM
mission, promoted 10 Bugadierships, whose mill
tary qualifications aud service were certainly not
superior TO his own. lie participated most ae-
lively in the pursuit OF Bragg through Tennessee
and Kentucky At PerryVille he was held as
Rosseaus reserve; and at the late battle Of Muir.
frcesboro his was of the brgades that supported
the park Of artillery which swept through the
rebel ranks with such terrible destruction. His
magnificent handling Of HIS brigade in this battle
won for him and his command tho unqualified en-
comiuns OF his commanders, His promotion is
requested by some OF the most accomplished and
efficient officers of General Rosscrans army, all Of
whom accord TO him superior merit aud ability.
From all that we can learn of his qualifications and
his achievements, Nc are satisfied that Colonel
Walker has claims as we'll as merits to entitle him
| to the promotion which his friends now ask for
hm for he is, as the true soldier always is, toe
modest TO urge his own claims IN person, however
! Justly they may be due TO him. We cannot doubt
| but that promotion will follow Colonel Walkers

In another portion of this paper We give publ
cation to a letter in defense Of General Sherman.
Much fault has been found with the conduct OF
this officer since his connection with the Army ot
the Southwest. Much has been said in reference to
his qualifications, both pro and con OF course it
is not within province to decide upon the mer-
its or dcmcrts of the question concerning his mil
itary qualifications. Those who are with him are
the better Judges oncerning these matters II all
that has been said Of him drrogatory 10 the fame
and character Of military man, is not true, he is
indeed = gricvously abused officer.
But some things we do know concerning Gen.
Sherman, which, if not dcrugAtory to his chnWct ter
As an officer. certainly do not add 10 his lustcr as Il
man A. the battle OF Shiloh he denounced as a
set ofcowarls one cntirc regiment the Sd Ohio
composed of the best men that ever left the Queen
City. Their cowardly Colonel Appler), when they
were surprised on the first morning of that fierce
conflict, ordered them to fire and retreat, he him
self retrcating before they fred. The regiment
obeycd orders The Colonel was never again
seen until the third day after the close of the battle
Sherman then drew up the regiment, thus dis
graccd by their cowardly Colonel, and asked Ap-
pier il he gave the foolish order to retreat. The
cowardly poltroon denied it, and upon the strength
0fthis denial, Shcrman branded the entire body of
mcn--as regiment OF towards However, the
General aftcrward atoncd for his conduct ina meas
urc, when he was convinced Of the cowardice of
Appler, 10y tearing the towards shoulder-straps
from him, trampling them on the ground, dvesting
him of his sword breaking it in two, and summa-
rily eccting him from his presence.
Shermans bravery in battle is not impeached,
but he is too rash and impetuous to be wcll-htted
for the skllCul mnncuvcring of large bodies of
troops too hasty in his Judgment to form corFec
conclusions
