RosECRANs, MCCooK AND THoMAs.-The
New York Evening Post thus refers to these
sthree generals:
The two great battles fought by the army
OF the Cumberland are, in some of their fea-
lures, strikingly alike. In the struggle on
the Chickamauga-to describe it brie1y-the
enemy shattered and routed our right and
centre, but was checked and finally held bv
the obstinate and glorious defense of the left,
under Gen. Thomas. On the Stone river last
January, our right was also overwhelmed and
routed and the enemy was then beaten and
routed by the obstinate and gallant fighting of
the left. 1t may be added that McCook, who
commanded on the right i'll the recent battle,
held the same position before Murfreesboro'.
Twice this general has given way before the
enemy, and on the last occasion he bore with
him from the battlefield Rosecrans, who had
placed himself on that wing probably from
distrust of those who commanded there, and
a desire to make sure of the ground there by
personal superintendent. But he was swept
away in the rout Of McCOok.
The recent battle has proved by fiery or
deal, the qualities of Gen Rosecrans' subor-
digates. 1t has shown the wisdom of the
commanding general in selecting as his trust
lest adviser, Maj. Gen. George II. Thomas.
80 long ago as before the battle of Murfrees-
ooro, 1t was noticed that Rosecrans, who is
NOT gwen to advising with his generals, con-
sstantly advised with Gen. Thomas; and he
,,"' Uo.'lhued on relations of the closest init
macy with this officer,-for whom he had.
indeed, cherished feelings of admiration long

academy, l conceived there were noints y
strong resemblance between his character and VI

that OF Washington Events have justified
the confidence of Rosecrans.
"Pap Thomas, as the soldiers (wbo Low.
him) call him, saved the army in the late des-
perate battle; his iron determination and per
tinacity threw back the enemy when all seem
ed lost. What ROsecrans himself did at
Stone river. that Thomas did on the Chick
amauga after his chief had been swept from
the field. 1t is not every army which has

GEN. BURNsIDE.-It has been said and re-
peated, in dispatches from Washington, that
Gen. Burnside neglected to reinforce General
Rosecrans after receiving from Washington
positive order TO do so. The meaning is that
Gen. Burnside is in great measure response
bic for whatever disaster has occurred in
northern Georgia. We do not believe this.
General Burnside is not the man to dlsobey
positive order, or fail to put forth all his en-
ergy to save any portion Of our forces from
defeat. If somebody has "blundered," let
the blame rest where it belongs, without at
tempting to turn attention from the delinquent
by disappearing the conduct of Gen. Burn
side. We disbelieve the allegations against
Gen. Burnside, because they seem to us in
credible, and wholly inconsistent with his
known character

TIE MUSICAL INSTITUTE began its sixth
annual session yesterday in the City Hall. Col
Taft, as president of the Mozart Society,
welcomed its members, and rejoiced with
them upon assembling again under circum-
stances so favorable to the objects of thoir
meeting. Prof. Baker entered at once upon
his work by a statement of the subjects that
will occupy the members on the several days
before them. His clear and thorough knowl-
edge of his chosen calling is apparent in his
classification, while his earnestness enables
him both to arouse and command. He is for
tunate in having about him the largest class
ever brought together on the first day OF any
previous session, and, what is still better, in
having among them SO many of the best sing
ers of this city and vicinity. The orchestra,
| under Mr.. Burt, must not be omitted, as it is
already effective, and will yet be much
| strengthened The drill last evening was IN
the messiah" principally. Miss Houston
was present, and sang one of her fayorite
songs, admirably. Yesterdays beginnings
were a sufficient guaranty of the quality of
the coming concerts on Thursday and Friday
evenings. We congratulate the Institute on
its prospects of usefulness and success. P.
The Musical CONVENTION at Mechanics
Hall, commenced yesterday under most favor
able auspices - the number in attendance
being larger even than IN former years. We
were gratiied in noticing present many of our
leading vOcalists from this city and other parts
OF the county, and under the leadership of
Prof. Frost the convention promises to be
! one of the best ever held in this city. One
