GEN. r. W. c. RADFoRD-It has always been a
of regret to that by the dsbandment of the
Virginia State Line excellent officers, amongst
them the gentleman who name stands at the head OF
this article have been thrown out of the service Gen.
Radford entered the army at the of the
war, Colonel of Cavalry, by appointment of the
United States.
Gen. Radford as trained soldier having all the ee-
ments requisite for and officer, should be useful to his
country now, and should have some position assigned
him. We have, no doubt that he would prefer to be
engaged in his old profession of arms, at time
when the country needs the services of every having
soldiery qualities; ard we, in common with many
others, would rejoice to him in position
