THE OFFICERS OF THE _VOLUNTEER
ARMY.
At the commencement of our present difficul
ties,-when it became necessary for the govern
ment to call out a large force to resist the reb
els in the south, one of the embarrassments to
which that military force was subjected, was the
inefficiency of those who aspired to.the command.
of regiments and brigades. A large class of po
itical favorites began to clamor for appointment
to such positions, and a system of corruption or
ganized in the election of regimental and bri
gade officers, alike disgraceful to the service,
the cause, and the ends to be achieved. The
United States government at first refused to
low officers of the regular army to take com-
mands in the volunteer force, and thus the evil
was increased, by the fact that the competition
for these commands was restricted entirely to
gentlemen who knew better how to carry a
ward at an election, than to form a squadron
on a battle field. As the organization of the
volunteer force progressed this difficulty be
came painfully apparent, and when the catas
trophy at Great Bethel startled the country-,
with its bloody details, the army and the peo
ple' began to protest against the increase of in
competent officers, as an evil that would event.
ually defeat the efforts of the government in its
struggles with rebellion. The facts of the in
efficiency in the command of the volunteer
force have also at length come befor e the author
ities., where a determination has been arrived
at td effect a change, to take the command out
of the hands of those whd are notoriously in
competent, and as far as possible, head regi
ments and brigades with competent officers to
be detailed from the regular army. We are
confident that this can easily be done, without
in the least confusing the volunteer force, or
disarranging its operations in the field. And
we are certain also that it will meet with the
hearty concurrence of those in the ranks, who
will suffer most by the inefficiency of those in
command, and among whom there are many
abler to direct those who have aspired to the
direction of legions.
We are reminded of this determination on
the part of the government to change the com
mand of the volunteer force of the army, and
place it in the hands of the regular officers of
the line, by a letter in the New York Tribune,
written from Hagerstown on the 23d of June,
in which the writer says :
There is an indication here of a change in
the organization of the army devoutly to be
wished, and which I am sure would be joyful
news to the people—to all those -
sons and broth...l, n“snanasf, - fathars and lovers
uruty - , - If it were universally adopted. I
refer to the reorganization of brigades, and the
appointment of experienced U. S. officers to the
command, in the stead of political or civil bri
gadiers, who have never smelt powder or "set
a squadron in the field." Such a determina
tion fully carried out would not only be a.
ceptable
ceptable to the country, but to the soldiers in
the army, who, however brave and willing to
risk their lives in the cause of freedom and the
defence of their flag, are not disposed to throw
them away uselessly through the mismanage
ment of fresh-fledged militia generals.
How far the reorganization extends in this
column I am not informed, as the order was
promulgated only this afternoon, and I heard
it on the parade of one brigade only, at which
I was present. The 4th Connecticut, lst Wis
consin, and eleventh Pennsylvania Regiments,
which formed part of the 6th Brigade, Briga
dier James S. Negley, commanding, have been
formed into the 6th Brigade, with United States
Infantry and a battery attached. Brigadier
General Abercrombie, late of Gen. Patterson's
staff, commanding. Major Chapin, of the
Wisconsin. Regiment, has been appointed As
sistant Adjutant General, in the place of Gen.
Abercrombie, promoted.
The progress of drill among the volunteers
is very marked and creditable:.. month or so
in camp has made them very fair soldiers in
the ranks, and skillful in the handling of their
arms. That they will' be good soldiers in the
field, is unquestionable. - •
As this reform has commenced in Pennsylva
nia, we trust that it will be carried out in rela
tion to the officers from other states, and if we
are to have a thorough re-organization of the
volunteer force, let it be speedily accomplished.
We have the time to make these changes now,
and therefore should not delay until the hour
of battle arrives. Nor is it only necessary for
these changes to be - made in regard to the vol
unteer_force.. In the regular army the same
incompetency has been introduced, which must
be sooner or later changed, or the service dis
graced and destroyed.
Fitom Virginia late advices state that the
enemy were concentrating in great force at Big
Bethel, where they have erected several addi
tional batteries. It is said there are about 10,000
troops now at that point, among whom are up
wards of five hundred Baltimoreans; and if they
cannot bold it with this force against the Fed
eral troops that may be sent to attack them,
they will retreat to Yorktown, which is also
strongly entrenched, and priktected with a large
number of rifled cannon.
LEGISLATIVR RECESS.—The immortal Legisla
ture of Maryland has agreed to take a recess
until the 30th July at four dollars a day !. When
they meet on that day, the Union members
will not, go into session, but will appeal to the
good sense of their constituents to approve of
their course in refusing any longer to lend their
countenance, "by their presence, to such un
constitutional proceedings as have marked the
course of the present Legislature of Maryland.

THE REVELATIONS OF EDWARD EV-
BRETT.
We stated some time since that Hon. Ed
ward Everett had written a letter on the origin
of the conthern,conspi s incP,itri which he made
some startling .reivelatkins •in regard to the
manner in which this rebellion was concocted.
We also stated that Senator Douglas had been
engaged for some time before his death in pre
paring a similar letter on the history of this
conspiracy; it; noviaisertedl-lie pro
posed to prove that the conspiracy was, one of
long standing. It is even said that Senator
Douglas"-had been — ceffiiiiinit""df - that'fact for
several years, and it may be to this knowledge
that he was indebted for the hostility that
southern statesmen and politicians so bitterly
waged against hbn in the latter years of his
' life. lelr. Everett Writes from a personal know
and his wide acquaintance with southern
leaders, and the position which he has hem, as'
a prominent - advocate of southern interests,
give special significance to these disclosures..
Speaking of his own public policy, he says :
"I pursued this course for the sake of.
strengthening the hands of %the patriotic Union
men at the south ; although -- 1-was well aware,
partly from facts within ; ay personal knowledge, that
leading iouthan politicians had for thirty yea2:2 been:
resolved to break up the Union as' soon as they ceased
to control As' United Statessoverninint, and that
the slavery question was but a,pretext for keep
ing up agitation and rallying the, south."
The political, leaders studionsly planned to .
giveViotOry - :fo the Republicans, in the - Rresi :
dental eleadon, in order that they might seize
upon this as the occasion for the long-plotted
,
secession. , Stiy• Mr: Everett :
" "1 certainly: deprecated the choice of. a Presi
dent exclusivelk by the electoral vote of one
section of, the conntry, though consenting with
the greatest reluctance-to -be myself upon = one
of the opposing tickets. It was, however, fully
in the' poWei of the south to have produced. a
different result. - But the disunionists were deter
mined to have their own candidate, though mistaken, I
trust, in the belief that he shared their disloyal views.
I make this charge against them without scruple, jus
tified by subsequent events, as well as by the language
of th'e entire Union' press at the south during the can-
"After the election was decided, the disunidn
ists would not wait for overt ads, because they
knew none could or would be committed. They
knew that there was an anti-Republican
ityin the Senate, and that there would be one
in the present House.: They 'precipitated' the rup
ture of the Union, because they knew that, if they
waited, even the pretext would fail."
Mr. Everett, it will be, remembered, was very
anxious for the success of the Peace Congress,
and the adoption of the "Crittenden," the
"Border State," or some other compromise. He
•
now throws the blame of the failure of that
Congress not upon the impracticableness of Re
publicans, but upon the determination of the
secessionists to break up the
"These conciliatory demonstrations had no,
effecting in staying the progress of secession,
I because the leaders of that resolution were determined
not to be satisfied; and to maintain their policy,
which, in the light of the constitution, is sim
ply rebellion and treason, they have appealed
to the sword."
Mr. Everett repels with indignation the pre
tenee of the south that she only asks to be let
alone.
"You say that the South desires nothing hit
peace, and ask, whether the north will not 'let
you alone?' But, mY good friend, the South
demands a great deal more than 'peace.',She
claims the capital of the country, althoug 'she
has but a third of its population. She clabms .
the outlet of Chesapeake. Bay and its tributa
ries ; the right to command the most direct
route to the Atlantic from Ohip
jvvpUlalAoll atllOnnt6 tO
five and a half millions —(the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad) ; the right to dragoon the state
of Maryland and_the western part of your own
state, with Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee,
into joining the southern confederacy; the right
to occupy thefortresses which. protect the trade
of the Gulf of Mexico; the right to shut up the
outlets of the Ohio, ississiPpi, and the Mis
souri; and, finally, she claims the'right of any
state that chooses to pass a law to that effect to
break up'" the Union. In' enforcing these un
constitutional, monstrous and unheard of usur
pations, she asks to be 'let alone ;' .'and when
the Government of the United States, in obedi
ence to the soleion oaths of its Members, (from
which the leaders of the revolt dispense them
selves,) take measures to defend itself, the capi
tal of the Union, the public establishments,
and the rights of the whole people against this
invasion ion° . b 'premeditated by ambitious and
disappointedpoliticians, (for Mr. A. H. Stevens
truly declares that to be the source of a great
part of our troubles,) she exclaims that the.
North seeks to 'subjugate the south.' 0 •
"But I pray you believe me that I speak not
only. my own conviction, but that of the entire
north, when I say that we. feel that tin conflict
has been forced upon us, to gratify the aspirations
of ambitious men ; that it is our duty to ourselves,
to our children, and to the whole people, to sustain
the government; and that it is, if possible, more
the interest of the south than of the north that
this attempt to break up the Union should
fail." .
These revelations conclusively proVe that
this rebellion is the result of the deliberation
of years. It was not concocted to counteract
any political action of the north. It Was not
brought about by the mere loss of office. It
was planned and created to destroy the free
dom of speech, the liberty of the press, and
the equality of mankind, so far as their social
and political relations were concerned in this
government. This was the deliberate design
and determination'of the traitors. This is their
proclaimed purpose now—and yet, in the face
of this design and purpose, there are those who
talk of compromise. There are those in every
community north who propose to settle this
question by a compromise that is only asked
by the traitors of the south to afford them time
to gather new strength for. their rebellion, and
corrupt, if possible, the masses of the north
who are to be cajoled by,this cry of, compro
mise. The people - must begin to watch the
movement for compromise. They must 'begin
now to demand immediate action against the
rebels-_ 7 or ,at least sternly to resistany legisla
tion of Congress that will , interfere with the
arrangements or plans of the administration
completely to crush out this rebellion.
