ThA WORK on Ana sonLh sidA.


As in the case of Sheridan, so in that Of Bul3y Smith,
the able military critics of this city are complaining be-
o,use tho whole party were not begged. TIE plan of
hattie was faulty ws are told and II the views of this
or that little General had been adopted, or 1900 of
tbe enemy would certainly have bse1 captured. Of
courss There are so ne Generals who never do wrong
and others who never do right. II Gen. B. Rad failed
half as often and half badly Gen. O. is very GER
tain that Gen. B. would have been consigned TO ever
lasting infsmy As it is, IN c. after years of failure
is rewarded with the highest bOnors.
For ourselves, VIC declare warmly, that tho wosk on
the South Side was done WE'LL and Whs. is BETTER it was
done quickly. In a single day, Beau'egArd undii all
that Badly Smith and Gilmore had accomplished in two
weeks If he failed to bag the whole army OF the enc
my, it must be remembered that important part of
his clan was not carried out because certain command
failed to come up in time. 1t is very easy TO say that
if certain had been pursued such aud such Ie
suits would surely have followed But that ia begging
the question, and taking for granted that the enemy
will interpose no o6stacls. What Confederate General,
we beg to ask, ever bagged a Yankee army $4,000
strong?
But our loss in killed and wounded greater than
that of the enemy That Is generally the case when an
enemy is forced out of formidable entrepchmeus-
Officers who took part in the battle, tell of telegraph

which our men had to crawl in the face of deadly fire

On Monday morning, Badly Smith was inside the outer

The Army of Northern Virginia.

Excessive love fud5 expression 10 abuse. 0thello in
iret ~ Of admiration and affection for Desdemona
calls her wretch al excellent wretch" indeed, but
still a wretch. The people of the Confederate ate'
have reached just such pitch 10 regard to the meu
composing the Army OF Northern Virginia. They have
done much for US, grateful to them, and SC
proud of them that nothing is left but to abuie them
Praise is out Of the question: for they entitled to
something beyond PRAISE What is a man to say, and
what phrase would be select which would not sound
meaningless? What Editor, sitting in his sanctum this
merry May mornng, aAd thinkng all that has been
done by the soldiers of the Army of Northern Virginia
since they first organized by Besuregard at Ma
nassas, would undertake to compliment them in
paper arclei IL would take a historian years to tell
the bare story Of ter Deeds and when that was done,
mplmsntsry comment would be almost ridiculous.
The fac: is, We eau only abuse Lees brave feo w,
and even that We cannot do TO satisfaction We
should Ike 10 call them all manner of abominablo
names; it would be great relief to US. When Mark
rSpley got back from America and went to his
sweetheart who widow, he attempted at fret TO
express his great joy by kissing her but finding this
would answer he caught her round the waist and
squeezed her til she shreked. Thea he felt better
We should object most decidedly to kissing veterans
who have not washed their faces for two weeks but
should Ike to testify our admiration by knocking few
of them down.
There they are, somewhere Spotsylvanis Court
House of the excellent and drtiest Wreches
that ever breathed the breath of life. Within two
weeks, they have killed and wounded 90 or $4,000 OF
our Northern brethren" Their hands are full of blood
and their breecbes full Of mud We doubt whether
there is clean shirt in the army We wager that not
one Of these horrbls has taken time to black
hs shoes siDcs Grant crossed the Rapidan. We dare
say many Of them have left their tooth brushes behind
them miserable set, truly. Yet there they are,
ready TO XII so 900 more Yankees to keep on sleeping
in the mud, to do anything, suffer anything get up any
hour Of the night march anywhere eat all they can
get eat nothing All-in q word, to behave in the
most extraordinary, nexcusable outrageous and con-
founded manner. What TO be done with such people9
We know If they contirus their unkind treatment
Gen. Grant and compel him TO leave the country it
will be the bouuden duty OF the citizens of Richmond
to take notice Of such conduct When they cone
back to this city shall have turn ths ladies loose
on them let them scratch their faces and claw the
eyes Ouh put them all in splt-bottom chairs and
stuff them with Whskey and hot horseeakes until they
burst every button of their jackets aud then send them
home. As for their rufan leader Robert Z. Lee, We
viii give him dollar in Confederate money, put him 10
bed until he is thoroughly rested and then take him
nto the Capitol Square, and knock his brains with
