NtVW EO HARE AHA4
In a late speech in the Houss Of Represents
ives Mr.. HoICosBE stated that there are I've
hundred thousand men On the muster rolls Of
the army, 8 force which, we are confident, IL
fuIly IS large a. any effective invading ioree
the Yankees can bring into our territories Ia
large portion Of this force is absent II can &c
brought hack by proper measures to ia pho
and thereby avoid the most imminent OF Q"
peIiis-the reduction Of the number OF our pro
duesrs in the country. Mr HOLooaBE also 70
fs7red 70 the fact that the most sweeping cor
seiptious Of EAPOLEOH never brought men
over thirty into TIE Geld.
Commenting upon ttsse fseis, he Richmond
Bisyafek very correctly remarks hsi We need
this time The frst i~atsIsets OF the country in
Congress. We need the highest wisdom and
moderation, combiusS With the greatest ensTgy-
And, in any system eff measures which locks to
the removal Of the great evils Of struggling and
dsssrtion, the officers Of the army, and esPec-
ally TIE oEeers of companies, can do more
than ca be accomplished BY the most stringent
legislation. While discipline sheUd be stsTRly
enforced upon the men, kindness and sympathy
sbould be universally shown to the private sol
disrs. It is nssurzI enough thst, after 50 long
service as they have rsaasrsd, ard such PHva-
lions ard perils ss they have endured, they
should long for 6 return 70 bonn and lis dear
onss. A j~adieious system Of furloughs, such
as our commanding generals have established
and s systematic regard for the feelings Of the
men g. all times, viii 20 farther than any other
means to prevent struggling and dsssrsion.
The officer who avsils himself Of bis petty
rank to inlet unnecessary burths0s upon thoss
in the ranks, OF who undertakes to make then
feel By bis conduct that thsy are inferior beings
Is 8 worse enemy Of his country than the IAN
ksss. The superior officers should look carefully
inso the manner in which subordinstes exercise
fbeir authority. OR army is not q standing
srny; our men are not the msTcsnATy rank snd
file whom the Yankees boy up At FIVE bundled
doIsrs a head, and cuff and kick about like
galley slaves. On the contrary, they are III
equals in 81 that constitutes good manhood o
the ofhesrs who command them, and, willis
obedieues is strictly enforced, should 10 more
be permitted 70 forget that they are gentlemen
Ghan that they are soldiers. Every officer Of 8
company should consider himself the head Of .
fsmily, and study the Hsnts and respect the
feelings Of those under him as be would his GIVE
Children.
