THE REASON WHY OKIE CIVIL WAR FAILED TO PRODUCE A PISTKJUIHHHD GENERAL. London Correapowtnnc* of tho Capitol.) Shortly after ottr arrival here in London we encountered a disting uished gentleman on liis way to the continent, armed witli letters of in troduction, and among the rest one to Von Moltke. Wishing to know whether the famous general had real ly said what, had been attributed to him “that evolutions of armed mobs had no interest to him from a mili tary point of view,” we asked our friend, if the opportunity occurred, to fetch up the subject and give us the result of tho interview. Our friend’s letter is now before ns, and it is gratifying to know that the views we expressed ten years since, from actual observation, are those of this great captain. Our frjend writes: “I brought up tho subject, and tbe old hero expressed liknseU very frankly. He said: “ T was asked why neither side in the civil war in America produced a very distinguished general. Even their respective partisans hardly claim any leader of transcendent genius. In so long a war, and whore so many men fought, does it. not im ply a lack of military talent In Ameri cans? 1 answer, no. The true rea son was because t heir field of selec tion was so limited. No officer could hope to attain the supreme command of their armies unless ho had been a student at their military academy, called West Point, on the Hudson river, in the State of New York. The number of the*! students, de serving as they might, be, was and is extremely limited. The Southerners adopted the pernicious system of ex clusiveness, as many of tlieso West Point officers had joined their side, and their President, had also been at the academy. It was, perhaps, fortu nate for the Nk'ril' that the South did not seek for talent among the mass of the people. It is evident that the, chance of obtaining a distinguished general increases as tho field of selec tion widens, and deminishes as it contracts. Incur army every soldier may aspire to the supreme com mand, but in the American armies the line of demarcation was drawn as deeply as between the former slaves and their masters. The volunteer, who represented tlu) great bulk and st rength of tho people, might, Indeed, attain distinction in a subordinate position, but tbe highest place of all Was forbidden. In reading the records of the American civil war it really appears as if the whole contest was between a few officers of West Point, and the mighty heart of the natioji had never throbbed. This aristo eratio system, which the Americans still follow, was formerly the practice in all European armies. In the revo lution of 1793, Carnot, the French Minister of War, first abandoned the it. and we have followed. For the sake of example, and not binding ourselves to any exactness of figures, except that the one is very small, and its opposite, with which it is eom- pared, very largo.iet us suppose tho number of West Point officers to be 500 and the number of Prussian sol diers 500,000. Evidently, as we have a fund a thousand times larger to draw upon, to render the chances of obtaining n great general equal, each American must possesss a thousand fold the talent of a Prussian, which is absurd.' “ ’But.’ I said to him, ‘do you not regard the 8011th as having the ad vantage in tliis respect ?’ “ Not at all,’ he responded; ‘the leaders of that section did not seem to comprehend the situation. Their advantage was the excess of military spirit; their disadvantage, the lack of resources ami the prestige of an established government, 'l'heir blows should, therefore, have been swift, sudden and aggressive. On the con trary, they acted on tho defensive, thereby giving the Government of the United States full time to develop its immense resources. Every day tho North Imd its opportunity to grow stronger, while the South weakened. On the other hand, the Northern leaders, instead of using tho advan tage tendered them, by creating ar mies and calling to t he front the mil itary genius of the country, exhaust ed themselves by throwing armed mobs into the field, so badly discip lined and drilled that their battles were fought by regiments and sepa rate brigades. The one great axiom which Afreets the concentration of a heavy force against the weaker point of the enemy, that the side of the Government Imd in its power to illus trate, wus neglected and lost. Four years of a depressive war exhausted tho South, without in any way con tributing to the military renown of the successful side.’ ” • ♦ • From tbe Washington Chronicle.) A Manufacturing; City. Columbus. Georgia, is putting in a claim for being the most enterprising manufacturing city in the South. Tt is situated on the left bank of the Chattahoochee river, at the head of navigation, more tkan a hundred miles southwest of Atlanta; a rather less distance west of Macon, and equi distant, between It and Montgomery, Alabama; and, about, two hundred miles north of the Gulf of Mexico. With the latter it lias connection by means of a tolenbly good water channel, along tho river passing its front, and the Apalachicola, further down. It is on the western border of Georgia Alabama being directly across the river a few miles, say twenty, below tho half-way point of tho distance from the Florida bound ary on the south, to that of Tennes see on the north. The population of Columbus, in 1870, was 7,401, and the county of Muscogee, 16,603, Tho pre sumption is, that at the present time, there are, in the city alone, 16,000 souls. For a long time, Columbus has been known us a tine manufacturing point. Upon the river front she lias throe remarkably fine cotton factor ies, and several miles of splendid water power still unoccupied. There are two other cotton mills in the heart of the city, engaged in pro ducing valuable and special lines of goods. These, altogether, consume l ight thousand bales of cotton, de livered almost from the fields in which grown, and In some cases, lii orally ginned from the seed, at the factory. Then, there are stove works in successful operation: machine shops and founderies, in full blast, liroducing everything t hat is required j liv the best kind of skilled labor, be it a plowshare or u steamboat; and a bagging factory is soon to go into operation. Bo much, in a general way, for manufacturing. We doubt if any southern city can make a bet tor showing, whether large or small. Now let us look at some other mat ters, outgrowths of the fact that this place has been rn'ade an Industrial hive where labor is respected. The banks have maintained their integri ty, and there are three of them, and two savings institutions in the liar gain. Those indicate the thrift, econ omy and prosperity of the working classes. The insurance companies are strong, anil well Conducted, and prompt in settlement. The public schools challenge comparison with any in the United Btat.es. Light draught boats are pouring the rich products of Georgia, Alabama and Florida into the lap of Columbus, and river transportation competes with that of several railroads; so that the carrying business is conducted fairly anti'-cheaply. The surrounding coun try produoos cotton as the great sta ple; I tub. latterly, tho cereals have become very abundant. Five hund red bushels of corn arc now made where only fifty were produced five years ago; oats, once almost un known, is now a common crop. Every farmer has his rye, wheat, cane and barley patch, and also his pea fields, and there are many barns filled with home-made hay. Mowing and reaping machines have ceased to he curiosities. Small farms are the order of tiie day, the dwellings on which are dotting,the valleys and the hill sides. And, to crown all, in the po etical language of the Times, from which wo have been gleaning the above, "the suggestive strain to our familiar ears, of negro melodics, is heard again in the cabin and corn field, fond reminders of ‘auld lung syne,’ full of significance and of promise.” ■ Long ajro--iotig be To re that, period, when war, witli its ruthless and deso lating influences, laid its hand upon the South—we remember well how lovingly a relative, one who lies now quietly resting in the churchyard at Columbus, would depict tho grand future of tho city of his adoption and, knowing tiie value of his opin ion when living, we fife now prepared to endorse the concluding sentiment of the Tuner, wlum it says; "All that we heed is, cheerfulness, enter prise, -confidence in ourselves and tiie future of our city, and tiie prosperity of the past, we so much lament, will, dwindle into insignifi cance in comparison with onr fu ture.” • There are 00,000 daughter* of Rebec ca in America.
