On two occasion* within tbe pea* week aCoafede-late army, defending a moat important poition ofthe Confederacy, and condacUngitsoM, m fir aa its

infantry and artillery were reneernel, with all thel ii;..titi\ natural to if, ha* been defeated and com-p. Bed to tall back by the eondiirt of trw*cavalrypl.t cd to eorer one of its wines, which appear* tobare given wayahn.vst as aonn as %\\ opposingcav-alry of theenemy male am appear «m-c. This ~r .c-am-eaace naturallyfatten an inquirywith whichthe public journals were rife but a year ago, andwbtt h it i* of the last importance to pu-di to some-thinghks* » definite answer. Why is ft, that tanctndi-y ha*, throughout this war, proved so obvi-ou-ty inferior in eWcienry to both the other arms ofthe* svrviccI Why is it that, in pointof fact, it hasim-v.r, on any occasion, pliyitltherob whiihbasal-wapt hen*totore been thought to b«- peculiarly itsown ? Why is it tham on army containing thou-sands upon thousandsof soldiers who have been in itb.- habit of b tcbing and riding the Wildcat jhoi-*c» from their boyhood, and who are, :iv hatha .wilingthe best riders in the world, then*should be absolutely no cavalry, if we are to undei*stand by that term inch v spe« ies ot force an goes

a bf tliat name in every army of Europe t "lt i«,"s,iv- Colonel Snhaller, " tlie onlyweapon whu h cantike .d, mi.!.*, of a beaten enemy, pifrsuc and r..utbiiii -tlcuc- it has been fostered and trained inevery wctl-regalatcd military system. Frcdciicth*' Uro.it owesbis most signal victories to the ini-pc-tuousattacks*or his Hussars. Napoleon hurledbi- mass.esof heavy cavalry against Uie decisive» point, and felt a -tin dof victory. The Folish cav-alry dashed into manyaRostdan square in 1830andls.ii. Tbe cavalry charges of Inkerman and flatscliiM arc immortal. On the plainsof Italy, bothFrench and Austrian horsemen, in the late war,pei termed prodigies. And ail these blightdeeds ofanus were performedbymen who had tobe taughtto tide after th.y were twentyyearsofage, and uponhorses that had been broken bg riding-masters whothennelres would not have dared to mount,a wildy amy horse, asour caralrists do."

The* fact ia, our cavalry have degenerated int?what Mai minit .nils, ia the samework to which theabove extract is part of a note, " dragoons."- Ofthese, tfle someauthor say«, "in principle, they aiyenUiely uiouuted iufantry , they ought always t"have preserved this character. In that capacity,dragoons con render, iva thousaud circa instancesimmense services, such as detochmenta tor surprisesii. retrograde move-ments, and, above all, in pur-suits. But it would be necessary, in conformity totheir constitution, to mount them upon horses too-.mail to Is- placed in line, otherwise the aspirationsand pretensions of colonels will soon convert theminto cavalry, and they will then become bothAnf-infantry andbod ninth y."

ss.. aa> - Marnioitt;aud we havetbe strongest proofivWhat is occurring every day in the Confe-daracy ,th .t he spoke- the truth. Of cavalry, as such, wehive none. Our whole force onhorseback is mountedn.i oiti t. oi, as Marmant calls it, "dragoons." Itis in amphibiousaffair, indeed; neither cavalry norinfantry,but partakingof the worst points of both.Thesuperior --kill of our countrymen in riding is,absolutely thrown away. The spur which Frederic jtaughthis cavalry to depend on is of nouse except I*n getting out of danger. Thesabre is never usedat all. Themeu ride up and fire theirrevolvers ; andthis they are taught to call charging. The actualshock of cavalry combat, where force meets force inthe headlongcharge, is utterly unknown to our sys-tem. The so-called cavalrydismount, diga ditch,orget behind trees and pop away at each other alter. he fashion of Indian fighters in the impenetrableforests of the far West. Itis no wonder that horse-menthus trainedshould givewayuponthe firstsymp-tom of a bona fide charge. How different wa* Mar-mont's idea of what cavalry ought to be when hewrote the following:"Horsemanship is everything .' It subjugatesand

breaks the horse. Maua-uvreswdl always be per-formed with sufficient correctness when the soldiers. are good horsemen. Encouragement of nil kinds ?should be given to obtain this result." Our troopsw.mt no encouragement whatever to make themform themselves into good horsemen. They aresuch already They consUtute such abody of ridersus tlie world never saw. Rut all thi- is utterlythr«wu away. A very indifferent horseman wouldanswer all the ends of our drill as well as the mostsplendidrider in theworld. Hecan ride up, fireoffarevolver, wheel to the right about, and gtdlopaway ,or he can throw the bridle of his horse tosomecomrade, dismount, bike a tree, and pop awaypike- anIndian. We are told that the natureof ourcountryis such that our cavalry caiinot charge as-n Europe*. Tartton's Legion, then, wasall a myth,we suppose. There never was such a body oftroops as the Queen's Rangers, under Simcoe.?L c's Legion was tbe- fabricabon of some crazyrebel during the revolution. Tarlton did notchargeMorgan at the Cowpens, and William Wash-ingtondid not charge Tarlton in turn. Lee didnotchargeTarlton in the lane in front of Guilford ju»tbefore the battle, and Tarlton did not charge ourleft wing {.a the- woods, too,) at that battle undercover of the smoke raised by a bady ot infantrywho find especially forthat purpose. These* areallinventions?pure inventions. The country wouldnot have admitted any uf these things. It was iu-fiiittoly more wooded then than it is now. Ofcourse it could not have been. When we read,tberei*o«*, that Tarlton charged the disordered ranksol Gates at Camden, and produced an irrepressiblestampede, and that he pursued tho fugitives formiles upon miles, cuthng them dojvn by the dc-aetiat every step, we an* reading of something alto-gether imaginary?something existing only in fhcheated fancies of the writers. The men who came?nan the Waxhiw settlements to a certain court-house, not many miles from this city, and there ex-hibited the terrible wounds that TarltoaUmen hadinflicted iii charging them, lied of course. Theface- or the country waa very woody. How couldTarlton chargethere ?

We -believe the excuse about th.-jiatur. of the, countryto be utterly unfounded. An authorwhomwe have quoted before?Colonel Schaller?pro-nounces it to be so in the following words: "No

"instances of what cavalry can do are necessary;history luriii-.hea thousands of them; *aud if onewould . tili-tid that the nature of the ground with- usbi -aich as to forbid auythiug like acHirgu or ef-.fceUvc putamt,he but shows ignorance of the to-pography of European battle-field:,!" There it is.the whole truth, we doubt not. To teU us at thistime of day that cavalry cannot chargeaad purs ueii the countries where Tarlton and Washington

urg.-d and pursued eighty years ago ia prcpos-roua.Gormen want nothing more than to be taughtte use of the sabre, and the practice of chargingith that weapon. Among the mounted men ktSMM be a portion, at least, of these; and they thesst riders, ou the beat horses. Do not makeouuted infantry of mil the cavalry force. Letcry squadron have a certain number of mounted\u25a0fanny, aay forty, as Marmont adviseein his book,Inch Colonel Seballet bos translated cxpraealy forie aae of our army, and which ha- thescal of

ia.Md. Nt Davit* approbation, and, we understand,erf moat other military nun. Let the cavalry bewade cavalry sure enough. We have very goodidbcen.; aucb as Hampton, Forrest, Fita LeeWickkam, be. Let them be instructed* to teach& their menthe v*« of the aabre, or to have itmoght,\u25a0 and the evolutions m-ccaaary for cavalry. Then,W when we inflict another defeat on theenemy, theremay be some hope of throwing a body of cavalry

* upou his disordered forcesand gaining a deciaivevictory. Then we shall have no more long, ntur-derou*., indecisive battles. Th.-n there will be bodiesid troops who both tint and will protect thecountrybom pillage.

We cannot understand why Graint choose* todraw siuh a doapicalde pictureof our army, seeingthat it is theaimc which Hogged bim so often and*o

eevcrcly lart rammer.

Nay.! when hecalls for one hundred thou.tv»nd men more be lU-ht tb.M cripples, ihibinn andold men, stolen fiom the cradle,traejaaj from thhospital*., or snatched from the grave, he ought toconsider bow biftcily he isrrilc. ting upon ths)valorof hi* Yankee tioc.pt.
