notice by orders from the War Depart

ed from Major to Lieutenant Colonel !;
from Lieutenant Colonel to Colonel, and
from Colonel to Brevet Brigadier General
in the REGULAR ARMY.
This is the most gratifying intelligence
No have received lately, and must be es-
pecially so to the General and his hume
rous friends. The Vaccinations of Bur-
leigh and some Of the bah.headed officials
OF Dakota have proved Of no avail at
Washington where the ability, honesty
and sterling qualities of General Sully
were known and appreciated.
The promotion is a fitting tribute to one
who has served his country faithfully for
thirty years, and should put to shame
those government bloodsuckers who have
been bounding General Suly ever since
he has been in command of this district,
and seeking by every means in their power
to embsrrass him in the discharge Of his
duties, and endeavoriug to impair bis
usefulness.
