"Hon. John Lamb"
We take great pleasure in printing
this letter from Gen. Porter and for
two reasons. The first is that II
shows his mind and heart to be In
spired by the kindest spirit OF COM
radeship for the old confederate
soldiers. II shows spirit in fed
eral soldier that does honor tc the
character OF a soldier.
The second reason Is that II
bears uneauivocal testimony from
one OF the most compcten, judges
living to the quality OF our citi-
zen soidiery In any contest they
may have with the regular armies
Of Europe. Gen. Porter commanded
the United States regulars in some OF
the severest battles OF our great civ
II war and the United States regulars
-ofIlcered as they were by trained ana
educated West Poin, ofiicers-are the
match for any regular soldiers in the
world. Gen. Porter saw with his own
eyes how our volunteer soldiers COM
pared with these regulars in depera;e
engagements between them and he de-
clares, In emphatic language. that the
American volunteer soldier Is a match
for the best regulars. This Is as good
testimony as the case admits of and
1t is most reassurlng to the citizens OF
the United States.
