Rebels on tho Message.

The Richmond papers publish LlxcoIA's
message, and call it hard names. The Sen.
tinel, at the end Of long editorial, con.
cludes that the message is response to a
proposition Of the peace men. We sup,
pose, if anything can, that Mr.. L1NoolNt
emphatic brutal declarations will silence
all ideas of that sort hereafter. Absolute,
unqualified submission, to be followed by
the spoiliation of our property and Afric-
anization of our country, is superciliously
laid down as the only terms of peace. The
declarations of the message will silence all
objections Of every sort to the use Of our
stores in the public defense, if that or sub
jugatiOn be alternative.
The Examiner concludes its article az
follows: ...
As to the bearing of the message upon our
slaves and the war, nobody, we apprenend, can
read It without coming to the conclusion that
there is no citizen of the Confederate States
more fully resolved to resist to the death recon.
struction of the Union than Is Mr.. Lincoln,
Will those men at the South who have been
sniveling about peace hold their tongues at

sherman ana Weliington.

The war annals Of the old commanders
are being thumbed vigorously for parallels
to SHERMAN's march from Atlanta into the
heart of rebellion. It has been compared
with NAroIroNts mal oh to Moscow, and
the Kindred Inflated enterprise Of CHAR1ss
the Twelfth. But farcloser resemblance
is found and deliberately maintained BY the
Providence Journal in the famous and tri-
umphant advance Of .Wu11Haros in the
summer Of 1918 from Portugal to the Pyr-
enees and the Bay of Biscay:
he gathered ibis immense army on the
Druro, and as It crossed the boundary of
spain, the great commander in bis enthusiasm,
rose In his strrips and waived his hand and
exclaimed, Farewell Portugal! He cut
loose entirely from his base of supplies at Lis
bon, and started for the ports In northeastern
Spain, where Q British feet and transports
could come to his aid. But he had to fight his
way. King Joseph .Napoleons brother and
his army was before Linn. History tells how
the great Captain, by brilliant strategy, sew
the coast, drove them up the ragged valley of
the Druro, reached the forts of Santander and
Bilboa, obtained his supplies, won crowning
victory at Victoria, and thus delivered Spain
Of the rule of Frenchmen. This Wellington
did, having left base on one coast for q new
base on another coast, to reach which he
marched q hundred Thousand men six hun.
dred miles In six weeks, fighting a. he went.
The movement Of Sherman will be in history
the twin In conception to that of Wellington,
and may gain closer resemblance in its vic
tories and its results.

Major General Thomas.

Gen. THOMAS is one Of the very few Off
GERS high in command against whom there
has never been breath of detraction.
From the commencement of the war he
has pursued the even tenor of his way, has
been equal to all the responsibilities i'm
posed upon him, and always successful in
battle. It was he who lifted, at Mill
Spring, the dark cloud that for a long time
had overshadowed our arms; at Stone
River and Ohickamauga he saved the army
from disaster, and now has won the crown
ing glory of his military career in defeat
ing HOOP at Nashville. As the personal
appearance and characteristics of the he
roes of the day are always interesting, we
append a notice of Gen. THOMAS, which
appeared some two years ago:
Major General George II. Thomas, native
of Virginia, from which State he was appoint
eed to the army. He is between 40 and As
cadet in 1886, and was appointed Second
Lieutenant in the Sd Artillery In July, 1910.
At West Point he stood pretty high among the
graduates of his year, only eleven out OF forty
two being before him. Gems. W.T.Sherman and
Stewart Van Vliet, and the Rebel Gen. E.well,
were his classmates. ''. ..
After appointment the joined his regiment,
which was then serving in florida, and was
brevetted First Lieutenant for gallantry and
good conduct in the war then being Waged
against the Florida Indians, and his commits
sion bearing date November 9, 1871. He was
made full First Lieutenant in April, 1874, and
was brevetted Captain for gallant and meritori-
our conduct in the several conflicts ct Monte
rey, in Mexico, taking that rank from Sept 70,
1846. He was also brevetted Major for gallant
and meritorious conduct in the battle of BuGna
Vista, which brevet was dated February %,
1847, the rank being awarded in May, 1913. In
1850, he was appointed instructor of artillery
and cavalry at West Point, In December, 1853,
he was promoted to the Captaincy of company
B of his regiment, and on the 18th of May,
1855, was selected for promotion to majority
in the I'd cavalry, which was organized in thai
| year. sl.5t =! -. tIay.lL g. i. s'd.J.
On the 18th of August 1851, he was promot

teers, and when Kentucky and Tennessee wert
made into separate department, he was or
dered to report 70 the commander at the head
