We are glad to observe that that enterprising
journal, The National Inteliigsncer, does not
mean to be behndhand in furnishing its quota
of valuable and timely intelligence for the ben
eft of the country and the instruction OF Its
Generals at this interesting moment when the
Spring campaign is about TO open. From the
leading editorial in a recent number OF that
paper, it is quite clear that pay was one thing
and ratiOns another in the armies of Didales and
Timotheus, and that Aristotle, in the Second
Book of his Economies, removes all doubt upon
that point. Tho Greek army at Patea, we are
also glad to be assured, was followed by great
conveys Of provisions, the care of which be-
>onged to servants and other camp-followers,
and that these provisions generally, in the
Greek armies, were conveyed by beasts OF
burden-hints which the War Department
should Immediately make note Of We be-
leye that in our own armies the bread for
the soldiers is generally baked, but if there is
any hesitation at adopting that measure and a
precedent is needed, the Department will like
to know that 50 recently as the time of the ST.
Gillian Expedition, Nicius not only estimated for
necessary st .es Of wheat and barley, but actu-
ally provided the requisite number of bakers to
convert those grains into bread. SO important,
indeed, for the subsistence of armies is food con-
sdered by The IntcIigenesr that it quotes chap
ter and verse from Vagetius, who wrote in the
time of the Emperor Valentinian-supposed to
be the second Emperor of that name-to prove
that detachments, not only of infantry, but of
cavalry also, were used for the protection of
supply trains.
If the Government, after these timely hints,
shall hold that rations are Of no consequence;
shall fail to distinguish them from pay; shall
not provide proper stores of -four; shall forget
the bakers and require the soldiers to eat bread
that is not baked; shall think conveys of in
fantry and cavalry are Of no use in guarding
supply trains, then the country will not hold
them guiltless for such derelictions of duty.
Let the Copperhcad journals keep their eyes
open and see that the next expedition to Rich
mond is not brought to naught by such machina-
tons i'll the War Office.
