Col Royal, inspector general of the
department of the Platte, came out 10
Fort Russell Wednesday on a regular
inspection tour.
Lit. J. +. Cummings, Sd cavalry, is
stopping at Fort D.. A. Russell
Gen. IT. L. Crittenden, U. S. A,
whose retirement is pending, has re-
ported for temporary duty at the head
quarters of Maj. Gen. Hancock on Gov
ernor's Island.
Judge James has granted another
stay of judgment in the case of Capt.
John p. Walker, Sd cavalry, now under
parole release from the national insane
asylum, pending an appeal of the case
to the supreme court or the president
Register.
Gen. McCook, who has been on Gen.
Sherman's staff for years, has been or
dered to join his regiment at White
river, and Captain Mullins has been or
dered to take charge Of education in
LILO army LAihJ OAuOCAo say lhas DtSJ-
Lincoln has expressed his intention to
reyolutionize the staff appointments.
He thinks that some officers have been
enjoying fat and easy berths too long,
and that it is fair to give them a taste
of service, and let those who have seen
hard service perform staff duty for a
while.
A correspondent writes to the Jour
nal as follows: II have had occasion to
meet quite a number of officers of the
Wisconsin N. G., since Gen. Upton's
sad death. They all seem to realize
that our branch of the service had met
with a great loss. l greatly fear that
whoever takes the revision in hand
now, will try so hard to give the tao
tics his name that a great many nnec-
essary radical changes will be made.
Perhaps you can assist in preventing
this by calling attention to the danger.
l think FALL your readers would be
glad to know something of the fea-
aAC "a ithth Aattito wa otns Up
ton considered superior to his"
The question of supplying the mill
tary posts with billiard tables for the
use of the men is now engaging the at
tention Of Chaplain Mullins to some ex-
tent. Under Gen. McCook, the chap
lain is charged with a supervision of
army education and supplying the read
ing rooms of the posts with reading
matter. He speaks favorably of hav-
ing billiard tables for the men, and the
plan is regarded favorably by Gen.
Meiggs. A table has been devised that
can be purchased at a cost of fifty dol
lars, and it may safely be calculated
that every dollar expended in this way
will save two in court martial ex-
penses. The greater the individuality
and intelligence, the better the soldier,
and every dollar expended in develop
ing the one and increasing the other is
a dollar saved. The army is to be con-
graduated that Chaplain Mullins has
gotten out of the old rut of thinking
billiard tables among the category of
instrumentalities employed by the "Ad-
versay Of Souls" in leading mankind to
the bad.

SOCIAL SHORTCOMINGS.
As l am not stranger" perhaps
l may be permitted to criticise the
social manners of our Town without
exciting very much Indignation. At
any rate l shall venture to say that
there is less sociability displayed in
Alexandria than in any other Town
in the State. Why it is so I do not
pretend to say. That it is SC and
that being so it should not be, I dare
affirm. We seem to have taken the
snail for a pattern, and we draw GU :
selves in our shells and scrupulously
keep ourselves there as if we were
not expected to be sociable and as il
we owed no duties to the others who
constitute the community in which
we live. There are, it is true, some
few exceptions, but they are so few
as to make the general rule more
conspicuous. Where is the Moses
who will lead US out OF this Gland O
Egypt and house of bondage?"
But that is enough of quarrelinl
for this week. If we have som,
failings we have a Town to be prout
of in other respects. The social as
pect of affairs will correct itself il
time, perhaps, as one of tue conse
quences Of our Town being grea
railroad center.
