Daring -the,past ear Gen1 Gillmpre,
of the department Of the South, has been
very freely charged in some quaters with
contempt and injustice towards the negro
troops. No evidence Of anything of the
sort was offered, and it is now clear that
it was an inference merely from the
opinions he was supposed to hold when
the war Commented. Our immaculate
politicians have been jealous with a
godly jealousy as to the souudnsss of
military men con the goose." aud too
often in fact have made that only test
of fitness to command. 1t appears that
in Gen Gillmore's case, as in that of
Gen Seymour. they were jealous with.
out cause Gen Gilmore, like true
soldier, has sustained the policy of the
government withot reservation, and let
ter from him to Gen Halleck, in Decem-
Der last is now published, in which he
commeuds the bravery aud eficeiencyr Of
the negro troopsih his department. urges
the justice of paying them the same
wages a. white troops, and also providing
for tPeis families by 9llbnins then 70 pre-
empt cOnRscatedlands. Congress, Which
has manifested petty distrust of our
educated soldiers, has .. last been driven
up to this aee of justice to khss negro
troops in the matter of pay. which the
conservative" Gilmore plead for SIX
moths ago. And Ye. Gong ssesa pre- lepas
to doubt whether our generals a are re- even eve
''in earnest" in the war. We are be-
ginning at last tOiind out the difference

Grant The FesPohsibilIty of -lhe disasters
In North oar6liGa, sPl6fidA TRad EodisIana,
the Army and Nary Journal replies by
stating that all of these movements were
planned and commeneed before Gen. Grant
became commanderii iin. chief, aud. be Is intt not
therefore responsible for any one of them.
None of the early movements Of the spring
campaign were directed BY him., except
sherman's raid through Mississippi, snd
that did not end in disaster, although it
failed to accomplish all that was hoped
for. The course Of Gen. Grant since be
got the rsins we'll 10 hand shows that he is
fully for the policy of concentration, aud
is about to try it in Virginia on a. grand
scale. All other enterprises are suspend
ed, and all the armies Of the East are
gathering TO overWhelm Lee and take
Richmond. The policy Is sound. and the
people have confidence in II, aud 10 the
ability of the Commanding general to do
what any man can do TO achieve success.
Would there be any such confidence with
Gen. Fremont commanding the armies in
VlrginiAH The question needs no ausaer,
and the attemPs Of his partisans to bsllttle
AID disparage Gen. Grant and all other
officers does not help the reputation Of
Gen. Fremont, as they seem to think. With
all sensible men it only increases the pre-.
