From the Columbus (Ga-) Sun.
Gen. Lee and Negro Soldiers:

Gen. Lee, in letterto Mr.. Miles, OF So.
Ca, Chairman of the Military Committee,
places the question of arrning negroes in one
single light-which illustrates the necessity
and the policy of using the negro as soldiers,
better than all the logic Of etapkysicians or
philoposhers: We "must use the negroes on
onr side or the enemy will use: them against
us. They have been so used ~now.for long
time, and with great help to our adversarles
and to our great disadvantage. And as the
numbers of soldiers diminish in our ranks
and are increased in those of the enemy, be
will oyerrun more territory and accumulate
from the black material astill more overbear:
ing superiority" TIE necessity being thus
stated, the policy might be left to rest as
matter of experimert-and surely the exper-
imont is worth triak But Gen. Lee has
been a close observer of men. His wonder
ful adaptation for the control of men. as dis:
played in the signal ability,with which he has
conducted our armies, entities his opinion to
be regarded as Authority. Having observed
the p,groes about the army, studied their
temper, habits. disposition end char acter, he
is prepared to vouch for not onlytheir capac-
ity for military duties, but to risk theirfideii-
ty in the discharge of them.
