Large and Small Generals.

From the New York Press.
Speaking of Washington. did YOU read
that excellent article in the London Elk.
press on the size and relative rank of the
worlds greatest generals? Here is one
of the most interesting paragraphs:
washington was not a tall man, being
rather below than above the common hight
or soldiers under him. Yet he was by far
the finest leader that America has pro-
duced, among her military men in partic-
uiar What America is to-day she unde-
h'abiy owes to George Washington. And
again smallness Of stature, or, at any
rate, the mediocrity of stature, made IT.
SELF felt far above the gigantic hight pos.
sessed by the generals in the war of in
dependence"
Now as a matter of historical import
ahce, Washington was feet inches in
night, with big head, strong arms. i'm
mehse hands and feet and very broad
shoulders. He was what might be called
a spare man. yet his weight was nearly 200
pounds. Imagine then, what must have
peeh the size of his generals and his SOL
iiefs if he, as the Express saws. was
. rather below than above the common
night But that is about as nearly RICH,
as the British papers ever get.
The Express declares that the Duke Of
wellington. the finest soldier England ever
saw, was man whose hight was al
most insignificant" The pictures [ have
seen OF the Iron Duke" represent him as
having been as tall as Washington ana
Tar thinner. His frame was attenuated
II not emaciated, yet what he lacked in
weight he made up in hight. Some bio
graphies say he was OF middle hight and
strongly built AS he did not die uutu
1897, there should be no difficulty in dectd
ing what was his exact stature Grant ana
sheridan were little "sawed-offs." while
"Bobs' Is little bit of a runt. Wheeler
is mere pygmy. Napoleon, just 40 bunch
all together, was known to the world as
lie Petit Caporal." Marlborough n
greater general than Wellington. was.
according 10 the Express, a small man.
Nolseiey Is wee bit OF a chap.
Kitchener, on the other hand is a big
fellow over six feet. Hancock, Scott.
Longstreet and Hood were all big men.
Sherman was tall. Butler was big man.
Logan, Sickles, Schurz, Rawlins. DIX ana
Fremont were much above the average
stature. Miles is of splendid proportions,
Meade, Mcclellan. Mcdowell Mcpherson.
Pleasonton. Robert f. Lee. Stuart, Kirby
smith, Stoneman, Hooker and Augur were
all bigger than the average soldier that
fought under them. Galliffet is NOT a
small man. Bismarck and his master
Emperor William l., were giants. Won
Moltke was tall and thin.

Tn the Japan war, they established com pIete uniformity of procedure in all their defensive operations. They held the out works of place for a time, and having lost them they abandoned the main posi- tance. It was only when cut off that they fought hard on few occasions against the Japanese, doubtless fearing that they cruelties as they were in the habit of in- fiicting upon the wretched, Alarmed rebels who fell into their hands.
 The Chinese treat their prisoners bru- tally In their war against Japan four bodies of the enemy's soldiers, to quote one instance were taken in triumph to Port Arthur. They were paraded at the Yamen, and after the promised blood mon ey fifty taels for each head) had been weighed out by the clerk of the Taoti, the corpses were handed over to the Chinese braves" The ears, nose, etc, were cut off, and the mangled heads hung up by string through the lower lip to the trees along the roadside.
 In all cases where prisoners were cap tured this horrible scene was repeated. The Chinese exhibited the same peculiarities against the Japanese in 1895, as they did against the British.
