THE CARE sIJIEY


Gen.yMRa&esa1&
The public is familiar with the charges
which have sfeA0lT Ebe4A nGae Pinq
General Meads ~ Generals SicKies and
Doubleday, and which have been widely
circulated Id the newspapers the en-
tire North. is, however, the well-wisbe|
Of this gallant officer. The New Yort
Times, ia an excellent article-o ON the sub
jcc., makes the following judicious re.
marks: 90 - - Es - u S. = 9 )
owe arc not advocates Of Gen. Meade,
or any other general We acknowledge
no test of military ability except the re-
suit of campaigns; bat We protest STRONGLY
against having this officer called to an
swer to Gems Sictles and poSbledsy, o.
ANYBODY else who serves under him, for
any orders be gave at Gettysburg; or any
where else. Il is universally acknow-
ledged that there is nothing more fatal to
the usefulness of an army than the preva-
lence amongst subordinates of the habit
Of criticsing the plans of their chief.---
1t has already worked terrible mischief
in this Army OF the Potomac, and has
bad much to do with its various failures
If Gen Meade had wanted to retreat fifty
miles from Gettysburg, instead of seven
teen, as is alleged, and had given an
order for that pnrpose, it. was not the
business of either General Sickles or
General Doubleday to correct or to. crii-l
else it. Their business was simply and
solely to obey it. He did not retreat;
the battle Of Gettysburg was fought and
won, and he has, since then. by his con-
duct in Virginia, given decided proofs Of
a high order OF talent. We know that he
is the only general who has commanded|
on the Potomac, so far. whom General
Lee has not out-maneuvsred.- 1t is in
the highest degree absurd to arraign him
for having ordered . retreat, after tbet
first days battle at Gettysburg, unless
somebody is able to say what would have
happened if be had retreated. We snb-
NIT that we have had enough of this folly.
Pope's campaign was converted into hor--
rible butchery because Fitz John Porter
took it into his head that he was bound
to correct Pope's strategy. Burnside's
campaign was marred by his officers un-
dertaking TO carry their orders to. Wash
ington and holding a caucus over them
before obeying them; and We greatly fear
We shall see Meade sacrificed during the
coming campaign to the banefui and
mschevioun delusion that generals Of
division are Congressional inspectors Of
strategy, charged with the task Of detect
ing aud exposing the blunders and short
comings OF their commanding officer. ~
