What We Should Not Overlook.

and forgetting entirely the late brilliant op-
eraiious Of Hunter. Averin CrOohe and
Wilson. II shows that for every mile 0f
railroad destroyed hy the rebels IN their
foray on the Maryland border our army in
Western Virginia in one direction. and
Wilson and >berlan's cavalry in other di-
rcctiOnS. al least destroyed fifty miles. The
expeditions of our cayalrymen, destructive
as they must have been % the enemy. be-
yond our means Of computation. not only
failed 20 produce the same clamOr as We
nave had here within the last ten days. but
the moment some few score or hOrse-steal-
ing thieves appear ON the North side Of the
Potomac. their exploits. despicabe a. they
are even in the aggregate. fairly drove out
OF remembrance for the time all that our
own cavalry have done. And more odds j.
made over the burning Of GunpOwder bridge
than over the substantial destruction Of a
hundred miles 0f the most essential Of the
enemy'- lines OF communication.
