MILITARY QENIUS.
f'rMn tht London Sptrlator.
Mr. Helps seems inclined, in one of Lis
recent chapters of Friends in Coanoil, to in
dorse the well-known opinion of Macaalay,
tbat there is no such thing as wilitaiy genius,
that any person of ability who would derote
bimself to the subject might make of himself a
very good general. All business, he says, should
be conduc ted much on the same principles,
and the only speeial faculty ho will
How to generals an distinguished
from statesmen, or barristers, or other
men of caprcity, is "apprehen
irenens," the faculty, as we understand
Lino, of seizing the points of a situation, as
strategists are supposed to seize
them. It is an exceedingly comfort
able doctrine tbat, if it is only true, for in
that case no country need fear tb.it it will
ever be without a general. It has only to
train a certain number of able men in the
science of war, and then, perhaps by compe
titive exaniination, discover the ablast, aid
it is sura either of victory or of honorable
defeat. The idea is especially pleasant to
a country like England, which can
produce any amount of "capacity," but
believes that she has throughout ber history
bad exceptional difficulty in finding a gene
ral, and Las frequently benn reduced to dis
cover one by a process of exhaustion, ap
pointing man after maa until some one is
found who generally wins the game; but we
fear the idea is much too pleasant to bo true
If hibtory teaches any lesson, it is that great
generals, find even good generals, are very
txceptionnl persons, and that generals of the
bighext clasB, those who can make armies
aod then with thoso armies acoomplish
Listorio enterprises, are excessively rare
as rare as tho founders of
creeds or poets of the highest order. We
question if England can be certainly affirmed
to have produced more than three Crom
well, Marlborough, and Clive and the gene
rals of that order of French origin are even
fewer, only one of Napoleon's marshals, Mas
ena, being entitled to a place in the list. No
system makes them and no school. Some of
the greatest generals in history have been
kings, never regularly trained to war; and
two, at least, Conde and Glive, won victories
before they had seen even imitation "ser
vice" in time of peace. Napoleon's mar
shals, indeed, seem to us to supply
an almost final answer to Maoaulay'a
paradox. They were all in their way
able men, they were all trained in a mar
vellous school for the work they bad to
do, and, nevertheless, the distance between
them and Napoleon himself sia almost im
measurable. Something was in him which
was not in them, and that something was, we
should imcgine, what wo are accustomed to
desoribe as military genius. An even better
example may perhaps be found in tho career
of William III. Nobody nowadays denies
that the great Dutchman was a man of very
high ability, quite as high as that of any
statesman not heaven-born, higher probably
than that of Cromwell, whose intellect had
very narrow and hard limitations. William
had a severe training in war, and desirod
acutely to benefit by it; he had very excel
lent troops, German, Dutch, aod English, and
he was as well obeyed as any general ever
has been. But he lacked that something, the
existence of which Mr. Ilelps doubts, or for
the moment appears to doubt, and for want
of it Lis policy was repeatedly scattered to the
winds; Le was always beaten, and bis name
lives without any reputation for military
fekill. Almost all men who are completely
exempt from national prejudice are aware
that Wellington, though probably a greater
commander for the troops he had to lead
than any other general would have been,
lacked something which has belonged to
leaders of the very first order would, for
example, have accomplished as little with
Frenchmen as Von Moltke probably would
required a previously existing condition of
society to give his power its fullebt play. Jle
however possessed in its highest degree the
power which in war seems uearost to mili
tary genius though it is not precisely that
genius itself that of devising the move
ments which of all others Lis troops were
most competent to execute, no that the na
tional temperament and the work to bo ac
complished always appeared to be in har
mony. Much of the real thought shown in
generalship must consist in that, as we Eng
lish may one day learn in a very unpleasant
fashion. If ever an Iudian leader heads an
other mutiny, and has power enough over
Lis followers to make them nso the spade
effectively, all the white soldiers in India
maybe expended in the effort to raduca men
who, though lacking confidence iu the Meld,
will fight like heroes bhiad uuy sort of shel
ter. There is indeed a probability that some
mode of warfare would bo exactly suit any
race not incapable of warfare by nature, that
its adoption would make of that race good
soldiers tide the whole military history of
the Maoiies and the instinct which seizes
on that mode is, if not military genius, an
immense addition to it. It is military states
manship of the very highest kind,
We should be inclined to question Macau-
lay's dictum even if applied only to ordinarily
good commanders. They mn3t have, at all
events, some incommunicable qualities. Very
able men may, and do exist, who are entirely
devoid of the topographical faculty, who
could no more form a tleoent opinion as to
the best position for a certain description of
troops to occupy on a battle-field, than Maories
could form an opinion as to the belt light for
a great picture, and without that faoulty no
man can be a general. Doubtle.M it is pos
sessed by men of low intellectnal power for
example, by nearly all professional huntsmen
but still it is a faculty, and not a knowledge,
and absolutely indispensable to success
Napoleon is said to Lave Lad it in
so transcendant a degree that he could
Lurry an army across a continent, and keep
it throughout its march in a strategics position
previoubly designed; but that power clearly
depends upon the other power of so clearly
impressing Lis will upon subordinates as to
make doubt or discussion impossible Many
even among great men Lave not possessed
that Jntetsily or volition. Then there have
been men, and men of great force, who en
tirely lack the capacity of routing capacity in
other men; men even whose ability diminishes
that of those with whom they are brought in
contact, er.d no such man will ever make a
consideiable general. We Lave a notion.
which we only put forward as a notion, and
cot a conviction, that Napoleon III had tbij
fctrange negative capacity, that contaot with
Lira distinctly diminished the natural ability
of bis agents, and that this was one reason
of bis marked failure as a leader of amies
Statefcmen in Lis closet became fools, and
generals imbeciles, till, as l'ehssier said,
even a telegraph to Lis private cabinet
was a cause of defeat. Almost everybody
knows of such men, whom he reckons per
haps, nevertheless, among Lis ablest acquaint
ances, and one such man exists probably in
the British Cabinet. Ne amount of force or
ability fcr business would mtvke such a mau a
general. Nor is it possible to mike a lea If r
in the field out of a man, however competent
otherwise, wEose mind workfl yery slowly, or
who fears responsibility, or, we should be in
clined to add, whose mind is so deficient in
pjmpatby that he can never reckon up what
Lis enemy is likely to do. After much read
ing of Lis history, we should be inclined to
point to that as the secret of most, if not all
the defeats, of William III. And above all,
no man is a general whose mind is without a
certain loneliness, a capacity of being stronger
for the absence of advice, or guidance,
or control. The better committee-man a
man is, the worse general be will probably
make, simply because he will have habituated
bis mind to rely on aid which in war can
hardly be forthcoming, a campaign being,
like any other work of art, properly a whole,
cot to be evolved out of any amount of con
joint deliberation. The general must be a
men in whom self-dependence acts as a heat
ing, not as a depressing quality the latter
being, we may remark, en passant, the speoial
difficulty of all democratic leaders. We sup
rose we must not speak of the faoulty of
command for although the men are often
found who are apparently without it, it is pro
bable there is no able man in whom it migkt
not be developed: but clearly leadership is a
gift often to independent of all other quali
ties as to seem an nnfair accident, and this
gift is indispensable to the general.
The truth we take to be that a general at
all bove the average "good-officer" kind,
must be possessed of a combination of
capacities which is extremely unusual, while
in the great general there must exist some
thing which fuses that combination into a
harmonious whole. What that something is
it would be as diffioult to define as it is to
define genius itself, but we believe that men
tal coup d'm'l comes very near to a descrip
tion of it; that a sort of divination as to the
relation of means and ends in war, a divina
tion wholly apart from, yet dependent on, a
variety of special faculties is the secret of
military genius. This is not "approhensive
ness," but something infinitely larger. Na
poleon could tell, as it were, without calcula
tion, by what wo have called divination, that
the battle depended on possession of that
slope, that this corps could take possession,
and that from the qualities of the men and
the character of his agent in
commend the probabilities that they
would take it were such and such, and this
divination was so keen as almost of itself to
constitute the will to give it effect. The no
tion that every chess-player is a political
general is either an absurdity or a bit of ex
cusable brag in the worshippers of the game,
but the fancy that there is a relation between
cheFS and war has, we imagine, this much of
basis. Tho fusing quality must be there. A
man may be a good cheBS-player and a goose,
locking almost every qnality of a good gene
ral; but he must have that one, the faculty of
divining amidst exceedingly complicated data
the course which will reconcile means and
ends. This is not, of itself, generalship, but
that, we suspect, is the power by which the
general utilizes nil other and equally indis
pensable capacities.

Where Main street crosses the Bellefontaine
Railroad, Charles T. Doxey a few weeks ajjo
erected a large factory lor tho purpose of
manufacturing barrel headings. The establish
ment has been running about live weeks. Mr.
Doxey lound It necessary to run the establish
ment both during the day and the night. For
this purpose two sets of hands were employed
sixteen on and sixteen off.
Lu Wednesday mornine: last the party were
at or arriving at the establishment. The engine
had not been running lor an hour or so. and
the steam had got pretty high. It is supposed
the water in the boiler was low, and it is said
the engineer had commenced pumping water
nto the boiler. Boon after tne water com
menced going ido the boiler, the fearful explo
sion took place, by which the boiler was rent In
twain; by which the ends were sent whirling in
opposite directions, and a lare section of the
centre v. as thrown up through the roof of the
building and there rested.
THE DESTUUCTION
was most complete. The pieces of boiler went
ricochetting through the building, striking and
te aring away posts, beams, machinery, aud tim
ber. The unfortunate people in the building at
the time were knocked hither and you by Hying
pieces, and death and destruction took posses

Benjamin Ilackleuian, the engineer, was hor
ribly mangled. His entire face almost, below

Two little colored boys, named Cloee, were
employed to remove the heading of the
"matcher." One of these was o badly hurt
about the head tbat the brains ooxed out of his
skull. At noon yesterday it was tald the boy
had died. The other boy was seriously hurt
about the head, but will recover.
Robert Wallace, a boy, was seriously wounded,
Lnt will recover.
Robert Telberington and Mrs. John Estel
were seriously injured by a piece of boiler golnu

Two or three other men were wounded, but
we have fulled to get their names.
A MI1UCTLOUS ESCAPE.
Immediately west of and adjoining the en

man. wife, five children, and Mr. Telberington,
ii:ni:cd above as wounded, were preparing to sit
cown to breaaiast. About oue-tuira oi tne
boiler nine feet long pascd through the
house, literally destroying it, breaking up the
It blc and dithes, the siovt and the furniture of
the route.
Of the people in the boue but two were hurt,
V.Tf. Kftel and Mr. Tethrington. How it hap
pened that every occupant of the house was
not killed we cannot conceive. The whole
riM'.-o is in splinters. Bricks, laths, plaster,
ratters. Joists, and aeons oi all Kinds lay com
lacily packed iu together, and the boiler itself
was long enough to destroy the people as well
as the Lnuse. The escape was miraculous.
