The General and the Private.

A veteran who served in the ranks
in recent letter calls attention to a
very amusing incident of an imposing
field review. Previous to the cam
paigu into Georgia Gen. Rosecrans was
reviewing that portion of his splendid
army that lay about Winchester and
Dechard. There had been sharp
saving of rations to get ready for the
long advance. AS the General COM
handing came riding along the line Il
man in the Second Minnesota cried
out: Less review and more to eat"
Gen. Rosecrans refined in, and, touch
ing his hat to the soldier, replied. "A
lean dog for long race"
On leading this letter to Gen. Rose
Grams he added another almost as good.
He was riding with Mr.. Dana, the As
siStant Secretary of War, along the
lines of new and formidable works in
process of construction at Chattanooga
just after the occupation of the works.
Stopping at Fort Wood Mr.. Dana was
admiring its strength, and saying that
it compared fayorably with the strong
est at V;cksburg. Gen. Rosecrans,
turning to the working party, said:
BOYS. do you think you can hold this
work?n One of them promptly re-
piled: General, we'll hold this line
if you will open the cracker line, :"
A few days ago this soldier walked in
to Gen. Rosecran's office in the Treas
ury Department and asked him if he
remembered the incident. The caller
was delighted to find that it was still
fresh in the Generals memory, and
that he also remembered some other
features of the day aud scene. The
visitor then introduced himself as the
author of the cracker-line observation.
Aside from their amusing features
the stories illustrate a relation between
the volunteer in the ranks and the
higher officer that was one of the main
bonds of union and which contributed
largely TO the strength of our armies.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 0.-It Ia not likely
that there will be change In the per

probable that Commissioner schoon.
maker, OF New York, will be reap.
pointed when his term expires on the
first OF next January. Two members OF
the Commission arc 80 much indisposed
that they cannot attend to their Official
duties at this time, and 1t Is believed by
many who have visited the Commission
that It would not be wise to replace Mr..
Schoonmaker for an inexperienced man.
Messrs. Coolidge, OF Michigan, and
Bragg, OF Alabama, have not been on
duty for some time. The demand being
made by the far West for place upon
the Commission, 1t Is thought by those
in authority, eau be more satisfactorily
met when the commission OF Mr.. Nor
rison, Of Illinois, expires January l.,
1902. The political complexion OF the
Commission is now favorable to the
Democrats, and under the law the Re.
publican party may have three OF the
five Commissioners. Mr.. Schoonmaker
is Republican, and Mr.. Morrison being
a Democrat, his successor can justly be
chosen from the Republican party, and
he can come from beyond the Mississippi

recognized, and 1t is believed that it will

that it was necessary to get business on
