GENERALS OF VOLUNTEERS,

The President has avoided the rush,
says the Philadelphia Times, for COM
missions in the volunteer service by
bestowing the stars, with few excep-
tions, upon the active officers of the
regular army. Of the eleven Major
Generals of Volunteers nominated to
the Senate Wednesday, the first scvoi
are the present Inspector General,
Brigadier General Breckenridge, and
the six Brigadicr Generals, Otis, Cop
pinger, Shafter, Graham, Wade and
Merriam, named in the order of their
rank. To these are added four appoint
ments from civil life Of officers who
served in the civil war, two upon the
Northern and two upon the Southern
side. These are James III. Wilson, of
Delaware, the calvary chief ofthe Army
of the Cumberland, who commanded
the force that, in the capture of Jeffer-
son Davis, may be said to have closed
the war; Fitzhugh Lee, of Virginia,
distinguished as Confederate cavalry
man; William j. Sewell, of New Jersey.
and Joseph Wheeler Of Alabama, each
a representative officer on his side of
the former conflict. With the eXcep-
tion of General Sewell, they are all
graduates of West Point.
For the Brigadier Generals of Vol
unteers the President has taken the
men best equipped for the service and
best entitled to the honor, the Colonies
and Lieutenant Colonies of the army
of highest character and experience.
Nineteen Colonies now commanding
regiments and seven officers in different
branches of the rank of Lieutenant
Colonel, are given commissions as
Brigadjer General, no appointments to
this rank being made from civil life.
The general policy observed in these
promotions is entirely to be commend
ed. a generation las passed away
since the civil war and the whole as
pect of military science has changed
The men who are to exercise RESPONSE
bic command now are those who came
into the service as subalterns toward
the close of the war, and have devoted
their whole time since to the study o.
their profession, keeping abreast Of
every modern development.

THE RIVER is LOW.
Minneapolis Mills Waiting for
Higher Water to Bring
Logs Down.

j. L. Webb, boom-master for the
Mississippi & Rum River Boom COM
pany, was in the city Friday after
noon, having just made an inspection
uf the logs and river between Little
Falls and Brainerd. The saw mills
at Minneapolis have no logs in their
bOOms, and the owners are very
abxiOus to secure logs at once. The
Boom company is anxious tOfurnish
the logs, but the water In the river
IL 50 low that it is very difficult to
make a drive. There are 25,OW), ,OO0
feet Of logs in the Mississippi
between st. Cloud and Minneapol
and about 75,0OO,O 900 between Little
Falls and st. Cloud. The MinneapO-
lis mills saw from 10000, 900 to Is, 5,O00,-
900 feet a week. With the present
stage of water it would be impOs-
sible to keep the mills running with
out an immense expenditure Of mon
ey for driving. The ''lOg committee
al Minneapolis decided several days
ago to begin Il drive at Little Falls on
Monday, of this week but the river has
fallen nearly u foot during the past
week, and it has been found neces-
sary9 to abandon the plans for q
drive until the water raises.
The water in all the up river
tributaries is now being held for the
log drives on those streams, but 1t
will soon be opened. The recent fall
in the mississippi at this place fs at
tributed to the holding of water at
WinnebagOshish. There are about
25,OtN. ono feet of Minneapolis lngs
Just above Little Falls, and more
further uD the river between here
and Brainerd.
1T would not he surprising II it
was a month before the Minneapolis
mills had a good supply of logs.
The log committee met at Mime
apolis Saturday, and decided not to
ATTEMPT a. drive at present.

Not the First Low Water.

Minneapolis Lumberman: "TalA
about low water" remarked 0. w
Firkins to q group Of local lumber
men who were discussing the proba'
BILE delay in starting the mills, owing
to- the Inability Of getting the logs.
II remember the summer, OF '65-1
think it was-wh"n the mills were
all compelled to remain idle. The
only logs that were got into the
mill pond were about 100000 feet
that DOrilius Morrison secured by
dragging them down the bed Of the
stream with teams. The river could
be forded at almost any place. and
serious fears were entertained by
some that the river would complete
~ dry up" This reminiscence re-
minded another old timer who re-
counted how, while coming down the
river that sum mer, he had waded the
river between here and st. Cloud a
number of times.
