The ScHLEswIG- HoLsTEIN QUESTION
Every reader Of the newspapers has
heard of the Schleswig Holstein question,
but veIy few know what it means. Hol-
stein is a German duchy, of which the
king of Denmark Is duke, independent
Of his own proper kingdom, and in this
capacity is tributary to the diet of the
German confederation. The diet claims
that the Danish king has been unfaithful
to his trust, and that he intends to annex
the duchy to his own dominions and on
this ground has determined that Holstein
shall be ruled for the present by Hanover
and Saxony. The king Of Denmark on
the other hand takes the position that the
federal diet is attempting unwarrantable
interference with the domestic affairs of
the principality, and signifies his intention
to resist it.
The question is complicated by the con-
tiguity to Holstein of the separate duchy
of schleswig, which is annexed for most
purposes of legislation, to Holstein, but
is not member also of the German con-
federacy. At last accounts an appeal
was likely to be made to arms to settle
the matter.
The German diet has called on Austria
and Prussia to furnish troops to sustain
its decision, and Denmark also shows
fight, and has the promise of help from
Sweden. The English government has
pro1ered mediation to the diet, bur its Of
fers have been UNDECIDED, and the British
journals regard war as certain. Such
war once begun may embroil all Europe,
ahd none can tell when il will stop.

The following is copy Of letter
written by Gen. John w. Phelps Of Brat
tleboro, to the Phoeair: ia SsrJ
According TO the action of the State of
Vermont thus far, soldiers Of the volun-
teer regiments vote for their company Of
icers, but the field and general officers are
appointed, the first by the Governor and
the second by the Legislature. And this
is wise; for there is nothing more corrup-
tive and demoralizing to an army than to
allow soldiers to vote for their rulers
The character Of amihtary establishment
is wholly opposed to the vote, forit is
based on implicit obedience to orders,
while the vote is an exercise of individual
will and option. Nothing can more en-
danger the liberties of a country than to
permit soldiers to vote. Their liberty is
sufficiently secured by the shortness Of
their term Of service. They agree to serve
as soldiers for three years and as soldiers
they agree to obey, and serve honestly
and faithfully the officers set over them.
If they have right to vote for they have
right to vote against. We must render
unto the military establishment what be-
longs to it and not attempt to incorpo-
rate democratic institutions with it; for
by so doing we should destroy the former
without improving, if not endangering the
latter. 1t is as necessary to suspend the
right of voting as it is to suspend the
writ of habeas corpus; and, if the. SOL
dier can claim the right to vote, all the
sailors who 60 from New England can claim
it. The exercise of voting in the army,
navy, and commercial marine, would be
impractical, corruptive and dangerous to
liberty. If the nation cannot maintain
Its liberties without it, then their liberties
are already as good as gone. 1t is des-
perate expedient that surer than any
other indication-m the decline of
Rome. wv p.

DEsTIruTIoN IN EAST VIRGINIA.
The Confederate supplies are so low, and
the country through which their march
must be made, so bare that they can new
er tarry forty eight hours this side OF the
Rappahannock unless they have better
luc. in capturing supplies than in their
late movement. No description can give
an idea Of the sufferings of the people of
quier and Prince William for the want
of food. The Weather have divided
with the poorer as long as there was aught
to divide, but all are now on common
level of want When Ewell was at War
renton, a lady there sent him six pounds
Of white sugar. He returned it, saving
that his knowledge of the utter destitu-
lion of the people forbade him from APP
proprlating any portion of their scant
supple to his own use. At the residence
of Samuel Chilton--well known at Wash
ington formerly, as a lawyer-a peck of
meal constituted the sole stock of the
focd supply. Chiffon himself is in Rich
mond, bat his family are at the home
place. Among them is son, late an off,
Ger in the rebel army, now diving of con-
sumption. Almost the sole food of Lees
army during this movement was dry
crackers. Prisoners and refugees say that
the great pinch for food has come on them
since we took Chattanooga and Knoxville
and cut them off from their great sources
OF supplies. And terrible as is now their
condition, It is but fo,etaste, they fear,
Of what it will be through the coming

The STRATEGY. 1t appears that it is
not Lee who has so far reaped all the BEN
efts Of strategy in Virginia. One class
of army and Washington correspondents
tells us how he has outwitted Meade, and
another how Meade has outwitted him
We have already published the FIRST part
of the story--now let us turn and give
the other part, as We find il credibly writ
ten by an intelligent observer. He saws
that Lee, in his recent advance against
Meade, withdrew all the available men he
could gather from the line Of the Lynch
burg railroad, supposing it perfectly So
cure so long as Meade was in his front.
1t now appears perfectly plain--what was
before incomprehensible Meade was
not allowed to fight the rebels on the Rap
pahannock, as he desired to do. but was
not allowed TO do by the authorities at
Washington. By falling back towards
Washington, he drew the enemy at least
two days march further away from Burn
SIDES field of operations. Lee, utterly
ignorant of Burnside's movements or
whereabouts, followed him. The discov
cry of Burnslde's operations was made on
the 18th, and was telegraphed to Gordons-
vile, and thence despatched by special
courier to Lee, reaching him on the 10th,
coupled with imperative orders to fall
back Immediately and with all haste to
Gordonsville and reinforce the garrison at
Lynchburg. His retrogade movement
was commenced on Friday night, when
the troops intended fer Lynchburg were
first withdrawn,-W Whao.

Knoxville, Gen. Burnside organized Ma
tional Guard, to embrace al the loyal
men Of East Tennessee We aregrati6ed
to learn tnat the ranks are beings rapidly
filled up. A United States artillery regi-
ment is being formed at Knoxville, and
six hundred men at once joinedit. Hws
can hold East Tennessee, as We feel oar
tain that we can, we may obtain twenty
thousand excellent soldiers from that SEQ
ton of the State. We also learn that
there is a large able bodied population
left in spite of the rebel conscription, and
that it is a source of profound surprise T.
see the country so full of wealth in the
form of agricultural produce. The corn
crop is enormous.
The wheat crop is large, hut not exOel-
lent in quality. The rebel army had not
time to seize all this wealth. Had cur
entrance been deferred thirty days longer.
sufficient subsistence would have been
seized In East Tennessee to maintain =
rebel army Of 100000 men for nine
months. The farmers have made out to
secrete more or less Of their live stock
from the claws of the rebel Quartermas-
ters. We suspect that the farmers asked
such enormous prices for their cattle in
Confederate scrip, that the Quartermasters
concluded that they could not afford to
buy. To steal all the cattle in East Ten
nessee was considered bad policy, for the
rebels desired to retain that country as q
beef-growing district.

''>' ANSHe"ANe' s iho euuisc " tht
Washington sensation correspondents to-
wards Gen. Rosecrans since his removal
from command, all will agree, has been
abominable. The stuff they have manu-
factured 10 explain what they knew Moth
ng about, has been worse in kind than
usual. We have ao doubt that the gov
eminent had good cause for its action, but
what the cause is the Washington cores
pondents know just about as we'll as the
rest Of US: and they will know more
about it when the rest Of US do, that is,
when the government is ready to inform
us, which will doubtless be at the proper
time. Meanwhile we commend the fol-
lowing upon the subject from the Army
and Navy Journal:
"We have heretofore had frequent occa-
sion to eulogize that officers military abll
ity and manly worth and our praise was
based upon knowledge of the man and OBJ
servation of the soldier, as we'll as upon
the historical records of his past career.
But we cannot doubt that the govern
ment's action in his removal was net only
dictated by the spirit of justice, but that
it was demanded upon the highest militia
ry considerations. In regard to all his
movements, and each of his engagements
since he assumed command, the govern
ment necessarily has wider and more ac-
curate information than is, or ought to be,
possessed by any other parties and in
regard to the late action at Chickamauga,
which doubtless was the immediate cause
of his removal, it NAV be said that moth
ing is definitely known about his conduct
on that occasion, except by the govern
ment. We fling away as false and cruel
the general charges made by the daily
papers against Gen Rosecrans, of unmli-
tary conduct and vicious personal habits.
Some of the charges we know to be un-
true, and all of them are in their nature
so antagonistic to his established charac-
ter which is austere. dignifed. calm,
self-possessed, and, in word, soldierlv to
a rare degree--as to carry their resutation
ON their face to all who know Gen. Rose
Grams. But the whole matter ia all its
bearings, will, we have reason to believe,
speedily. come up for investigation before
the proper court; and until the charges
then are made known, and the facts elicit
ed are brought to hight, we advise his de-
tractors, as well as fluetuating public. 10
restrain themselves from indulglng in ran
dom charges and harsh criticism against
one who, during the last two years, has
certainly done his country enough service

and to shield him from the poisoned shaft
