Gen. Grant

Gen. Grant
A Northern jaurnal asserts that the enly
reason the Western troops have been more
succeesful than the Northern in this war II
that Gen. Grant vas their commander.
n is Idle to expect 10 any Northern news
paper the language Of reason. sobriety, OF
truth. The Westerp troops may not be
Drawer or more resolhie than the Northern,
but they ere harder. more accustomed {"
the use cl arn,s, aud withal have strong
admlxsure Of Southern blood. Many OF the
original settlers Of Iliiaois, Indiana. and
Southern Ohio, were etDierants' from the
Southern States Kentucky and some por-
tons Of Tennessee have furnished the United
States the best troops Of its western army
But not all these facts combined account fer
the successe, Of the Western army. Thofe
successes were the result OF an Immense
prepoudcrance OF numbers, and, In some in
stancea. of our own m!sInanagcmeht Ger
tain,y, 1t was not the gsneralshp Of Grant
10 which tho credit Is due. lie was whipped
repeatedly there, and never achieved o sue
cess except by enormous odds and by cur
own palpahle bunders.
We have no desire to detraet from HE
military character. lie is brimfull of bovine
energy, but his brains are not e4nal to his
pluck. Even his pluck, so far as we have
any proof, cons ists in q readiness to have
his men slaughtered rather than expose HIM
self to personal peril. We hear OF him
smoking; VIC hear Of him whiting; we
hear OF his stereotyped order, "Scnd The
men in :" bnt we do m. hear Of his coire in
himself. This ia no Impeachment. we con-
tess, Of his courage. Nor is it the duty OF a
danger; but when pluck is claimed as his
distinguishing qu Atty, we deny that the ex-
poeure Of other men to danger affords any
proof Of it. In military genius there is no
comparison between Grant and Mcclellan.
The boosted achievement of transferring bis
army from the north to the south bank OF
the James might have been accomplished in
the beginning of his campaign without the
loss of single life. lie might have come
at once to McClellan's old position and
crossed the river, or he might h I'VE landed
on the 8outhside and reached Petersburg
without difficulty. Instead of that, he came
upon line which he proclaimed lie would
hold il 1t took him all fummer, and sacri
feed seventy 1--WE or a hundred thousand
men to reach point which he might have
reached withon. eNpsnaing drop OF blood.
If he had a hundred Thousand men to spare
why not send them to Bntlcr, while he
pressed Lee on the Rapidan? And finally,
if the Western army succeeded because it
had Ulysses s. Grant at its head, why has
not the Northern army succ seded under the
came chieitainship? To assume Its success
before it has attained its object is in KNeping
