The LIONS RoAR.-The following Is from
Jules Gerard-but six to nine miles is a good
way to hear a lion roar +" The very roar OF
the lion in its wild state-which is music
which the most fasudious would deem worthy
OF listening to-is truly magnificent. His first
note, when he commences TO roar, is low
sound emitting from his chest and nostrils,
bat is audible from great distance. This is
species Of prelude, and Immediately afterward
it Is repeated; but this time more lond and
protracted, the jaws of the animal being still
closed, or the mouth but slightly opened. The
third and fourth outbursts are given to the
air through the fully extended jaws, and with
the full force of the lungs. To listen TO this
roar is terrible for those who happen to be
crossing the monarch's path or TO be march
ing through the lonely forest. At length, after
two or three more utterances of the kind, the
animal ends, as he commenced, with less Wig
orous notes. The distance to which / have
been able to trace the progress Of the lion by
his roar, when there have been no contrary
winds and no mountains nor other objects to
Interrupt the sound, is two or three leagues
but when he roars about league of, one who
is not accustomed to the sound would believe
him to be close at hand"

Gen. " Badly" Smith.
From the st Louis Republican,. 18th.

From the st Louis Republican, 18th.
The mention Of the name of Gen. W. +.
Smith in connection with the command of
the Army of the Potomac, his recommen
dation by Gen. Grant for that position,
the probability that he will be so assigned,
and his nomination as Major General in
the regular army, to I'll the vacancy Occa-
stoned by the promotion of Grant as Lieu
tenant General, will, no donbt, render in
teresting brief sketch of his military his
tory.
William Farran Smith was born at St.
Adams, Vermont, February 18th, 1924,
and is consequently just turned Of forty
years of age. He entered the West Point
Academy in 1S41 from his native State,
and in 1916 graduated with distinguished
hOnors, ranking fourth in class contain
ing such names as Fitz John Porter, Chas.
L. Stone and John W. Davidson. On
his graduation he was assigned to the
Typographical Engineers, the highest
branch of the service, as brevet Second
Lieutenant. He acted as Assistant Pro-
fessor of Mathematics at The Military Aca-
denny, from November 9th, 1916, to Aug.
2lst, 1S4S. He was promoted to the full
grade of Second Lieutenant on the 14th of
July, 1849, becoming First Lieutenant in
1853, and Captain in 1859. In 1866 he
was again Assistant Professor of Mathe-
mates at West Point, and he was at vari-
GUS times employed on the surveys of the
. Lake Superior region, of the Rio Grande,
Texas, sOf the military road to California,
and in the Mexican boundary commission.
When the present war broke out, General
(then Captain Smith was Secretary of the
Lighthouse Board at Washington. OBJ
tanning leave of absence, he took command
of the Third Vermont Volunteers, and was
appointed Biigadier General of Volunteers
August 18th, 1861. He was in Gen. W. Il.
Franklin's corps of the Army of the Poto-
mac, and went with that corps in command
of division when Franklin was detached
from Mcdowell and joined Mcclellan on
the Peninsula. He distinguished himself
greatly in the Chickahominy campaign, for
which, on the recommendation of General
Mcclellan, he was promoted Major Gene
raj of Volunteers, July 4th, 1862. He
participated in the battle of Antietam in
September of that year, and commanded
the Sixth Corps in Burnside's unsuccessful
attack on Fredericksburg, December 18th,
He was transferred to Grants Department
then under General Rosecrans, with Gen.
Hooker, and has since been quite promi-
nent, as our readers know, in some of the
important actions and movements in the
military division of the Mississippi, as a
staff officer of General Grant. We should
have stated that his appointment as Major
General was not confirmed by the Senate,
and expired by constitutional limitation on
the 4th of March, 1868.

Gen. Grants Views Of Strategy
Correspondence of the New York Herald.

Correspondence of the New York Herald.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 5, 1864.
Such has been the result of the strategy
of General who says he does not believe
in strategy: do not know that you have
had the story, but it is good one, and I
send it as characteristic of the man as
viewed from a distance; for have had
no opportunity to study him closely since
he has assumed the labor of carving half
Of the rebellion on his own shoulders The
story goes that few evenings ago Gen.
W. F. Smith, General Rawlings and other
staff officers of Gen. Grant, were gathered
together in the latser's room in the Cum
bingham mansion. Gen. Smith was pac-
ing up and down the room, apparently in
deep study, when some one asked him
what distressed him. Another spoke up
and said:-" Let Badly alone, he is study
ing strategy" A laugh followed at Gen.
Smiths expense, when General Grant re-
marked :-"I don't believe in strategy as
you generally mean it. use it in getting
just as close to the enemy as possible, and
then, up guards and at them"

The American War-..A Geological
Smile.

From the London Morning Post, Feb. H.
The North has not yet penetrated the
crust of the South. At the point where
the greatest efforts have been made by the
Federals they have absolutely made no
progress since Mcdowell was defeated by
Beauregard at Bull Run in the first great
battle of the war, three years ago. The
same may be said with respect to the con-
test SO long raging at Charleston. They
have come upon the deepest rock of the
Southern crust, and cannot perforate it :;
it is proof against all the boring tools
of the Gillmores, Parrots and Dahlgrens.
A modification of this modern type of war
fare is to be seen in the West. There the
primitive rocks did not lie so near the sur
face. There was much water in those
parts, which was proportionally softer.
The gunboats could make their way up
and down the Mississippi But the softer
parts OF the western crust of Secessia have
now been gone through, and again the
Federals find themselves against solid,
impenetrable mass. If from the north, the
east and the west we turn to the extreme
south, we find that matters have long been
in this condition of fixity. The Federals
cannot get further into the country than
New Orleans. and their occupation of this
place, which they have now held so long,
is an epitolne OF what their occupation Of
the entire South would if they were able
to overrun it. The waters of the rivers
and the sea which surround the South are
as the arabic soil, the clay, the loan, the
sand, the gravel in the earth's crust. When
less or greater depth of the soft matter
is got through, you come upon solid rock,
upon which you can make no impression.
and which, if you could penetrate it. would
let you through into the boiling chaos

The AMNESTY PROCLAMATION.
From the Sentinel.
Among the appliances which Fitzpatrick
brought with him to help in taking Rich
mond was beautiful supply Of the am
nesty proclamation of Abraham Lincoln.
Long live bis most serene highness! We
do not know how many of these messages
of love Fitzpatrick was loaded with, but our
troops captured a box full. It will be
gratifying to our sweet friends to be in
formed that these affectionate missives
have not been burned, or hid away in con-
sternation from our people, but have been
sown broadcast in our streets.
We have copy lying before us that
was picked up from about two hundred
that had been scattered at one of the most
public corners of Main street.
Its appearance indicates that our people
showed more disposition to tread them in
