enough TO excite the anxiety OF such IN admmstratWe

cavalry business, too. will be settled In short. the
army will be set its legs again. The men are All

THE FEELIEG OP THE ARMY.
90 far IA have been able u Judge the feeling os the
soldiers is Of regret that Gen Bragg has pluacd IN
Lis operations 10 squabble with his officers Sappose
thu, these have erred this the proper time 70 repros
themt Especially In such an emphatic manner. a.
for Gen. Hindman. his case II less known ana more
prejuaciay considered. Brt as for Pok and Forrest

right or wrong doubt, his integrity, hs courage
and lis manhood. y he was wrong. II va, not men

WHAT rs TO BE DoyEl
am sure / cannot tell. IL Is confidently believed
that Gen Longsrcct Joe Johnston Is 10 be placed Ia
command. Gen. Bragg has fought and won battle a.
last and es be has had eighteen months o. haId woft
must need rest. His Disagreement; v!th his officers Is
.lso a reason for 0 change. We need harmony now
above all things. We need also new man. We want
