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

Gen. Lee, in letter to Mr.. Miles, Of So.
Ca. Chairman of the Military Committee,
places the question of arning negroes IN :! one
single light-which illustrates Che necessity
and the policy of using the n;gro as soldiers,
better than all the logic Of mc:apkysicians OF
philoposhers: We "must use the negroes on
our side or the enemy will ase.then against
u.s.. They have been SO usedz.now,for long
time, and with great helpto 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, he
will oyerrun more territory and accumulate
from the black material sstill more oyerbear
ing superiority" The necessity being thus
stated, the policy might be left to rest as q
matter of experiment surely the exper-
.imont is worth trial. But Gen. Lee has
been 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, ,,entitles his opinion to.
be regarded as aathcrity. Having observed
the negroes about the army, studied their
temper, habits, disposition and char acter, he
is srepared to vouch tor not nlytheir capac-
ity for military duties, but to risk their fieel-
ty in the discharge Of them.
