Kerr says the great difficulty in this war has been ‘bad bossin.” The phrase may be homely or inelegant, but the fact cannot be denied. If this nation is split asunder by this rebellion it will be owing to ‘bad bossin” and nothing else. The loyal States have the power of every description to crush‘ the rebelliun and restore the unity of the States. They have put into the field the best armies the world ever saw, in whom is the spirit to conquer. The'resources of the free States have been proved to be equal to every emergency. As a war power the North has shown itself on a Jevel with the most powerful nations on the globe. From the commencement of this war we \haveneeded only good, management, and that, beyond dispute, has been'sndly wanting. The Generals on whom thé country most relied, McClellan and Buel, have been slower than cold molasses in an Artic winter. ‘Two years have dragged away and where are we? As fast as the old conmandera have been shoved aside, activity of some sort bas followed. But, as yet, the coming man is 2 coming man. His welcome countenance has not yet beamed on the. country. The people anxiously await his advent. They are sick ,.und tired of the bulletins of slothful Generals, now, announcing they have changed their-base of operations successfully in the face of a superior force, and all is well, when in fact they have been whipped like blazes; then, that tlie rebels cannot escape out uf Maryland, but allow the-evacuation to take place ; and last, that the Gapsof the Blue Ridge have been seized andLee, in the Valley of the Shenandoah, has been outflanked, when three weeks before, the Commander-in-Chief of the rebels, reached Richmond with almost his entire command, leaving a few in the valley of the Shenadvah.to occupy the attention of the immense army of the United States.— The people are sick and tired and disgusted with such military exhibitions. It isno wonder the slow coaches are put aside for faster conveyances. Burnside has been placed at the head of oo ike armies and he has commanded a halt.— Some may suppose the old practi ces are about tu be followed by the new commander. — We hope not. He has probably found on assuming the chief command, that the plan of offensive operations adopted by McCleljan are defective in some respects owing to an unexpected disposition of the forees of the enemy. A day or two of time is necessary for the new commander to get his harness to fit exactly. Burnside is an active. and, so far, successful General. We know nothing of his genius. He may be a ‘'bad boss,” like his predecessor; but the Administration ought to know who among our Generals is best fitted for the place. We confide in the authorities at Washington, though it must be admitted they have been guilty of some very ‘bad bossin” since the war commenced. —_— ALTITUDE OF PasseEs.--The Union of the 13th, has an article on the altitude of the Passes in the Sierra Nevada. Johnson's Pass is made by Professor Whitney tu be 7,312 feet above the sea level. _The Truckee Pass is 7,027 feet in altitude, and the Yuba Gap is stated at 6,752 ‘eet. The altitude of Yuba Gap was taken by Goddard. Eugineer ‘James makes the Yuba Gap 700 feet lower than Johnson’s, or about 6,612 teet. The Union says, probably,an instrumental survey would show but little difference in elevation 4 between the Johnson, Truckee and Henness passes. But the Truckee pass is hard by the Henness, and we are assured by those wko know, that there is a marked difference bes tween the two, and in favor of Mele _ GENERAL Burnsipe.—Gen.

HENNESS.—-More than seven years ago, ‘solitary and alone,” we began calling attention to the advantages offered by the Henness route for a transmontane wagon road, and-we have continued writing at short intervals upon the subjectever since. We became early satisfied that the interests of Nevada and of this county, were te be promoted by the construction of .a road through the Henness Pass, and we have not ceased to ugitate the watter. We have incessantly worked to induce Sacramentans to see that their iuter~ ests were jeopardized by the course they were pursuing towards Placerville,and by the steps the people of Marysville were taking to construet the Truckee Turnpike. We failed. Nevada lost, and Sacramento lost heavily, by inaction, or misdirected energies. The truths we have disseminated concerning the Henness route are beginning to be appreciated. The cock and bull stories told about the route deterred teamsters fora long time from trying the route. The fears these stories have left on the minds of men, are well set forth in the article we are about to quote —an article that is gratefully received by us after almost unrequitted service of more than seven years in favor of a route that the lead~ ing presses of the State appearedto combine during that time to keep indiscredit. The Terviterial Enterprize speaks thus handsomely of the Henness Route, from personal: know ledge : This route is fast coming into favor-among teamsters engaged in freighting to this Territory. Many who have made the trip over the mountains by this route this fall for the first time, and with many misgivings as to its practicability, now declare that they will herea(ter drive over no other. Weare unable to account for the great ignorance which has so long prevailed among persons engaged in the transportation of goods and merchandise to’ this Territory, in regard te the many advantagéa of this route over all others for heavily loaded teams. The road passes along the courses of rivers and brooks, and through a succession of flats and valleys, overa smooth and level country. The grade over the divides between these valleys is so slight as to offer but a trifling obstacle to the passage of teams with the heaviest loads. Thereis no place where doubling, or detention of any kind, is necessary with a team of trustworthiness, and teamsters need not fear to try the road with full loads. We passed over the route a few weeks since. and in several instances were not alittle amused at the questions asked us by the teamsters making their first trip over the road. Allappeared to have ime bibed the notion that they were somewhere to meet with a terribly steep mountain, and were anxious to know just where they would encounter this object of their dread. “ Aint there a bad hill at the summit?” “ Nary hill. You will not know when you have crossed the snmimit without some person well acquainted with the route informs you.” ‘ Where is Dog Valléy Hill?” ‘It is the hill you cross just before arriving at O’Neil’s station. The grade is excellent, and you will find no diffi. culty there. There is a short but not difficulé pull to the top, then five miles of a gradually sloping road to the valley of the Truckee.” * Well, I was never on this road before What J have seen of it is splendid, but I don’t want to get into trouble.” Mr. Teamster cracks his whip; his eight or ten mnles bend brav ly te their load, shaking a shower of musical notes from’their bells, the wheels of the ponderous “prairie schooner” feel the “strain” and commence their slow pace forward, but there is still a slight pressure on the heart of Mr. Teamster, and hé is only half convinced that he is not going to encounter some insurmountable obstacle. There are stations at intervals of six or eight miles along the entire route, where ample accom. modations will be found for both men and animals, with springs, brooks, rivers and lakes at convenient distances for watering teams. EscaPED CoNnvVICTS—STATE POLIcy.— There appears to be a radical error in the attitude of the Scate towards prisoners after they have escaped from her prison, We recollect that a few yearsago,a citizen made an application to the Legislature for indeinaity for losses sustained from the devastations of escaped convicts, and was refused, although his case was anextremely hard one. and called for the commiseration of every cognizant of the facts. Now, that citzen paid his taxes for the benefit of a protecting government, and if the Gevernment did wot take proper care of dangerous men after they had been put in its custody by the courts, itis responsible for the negligence and damage. In another respect the State is at fault.— After suffertng prisoners to escape, the laws seem to be expressly framed for the purpose of never retaking aid returning them. The price paid for apprehending and returning escaped convicts will not pay an officer's exenses. ‘There are escaped convicts about ere and at Grasa Valley, but the officers are not well enough paid to justify them in’ making an arrest. The man who was to the treuble of arresting and transporting “Salt Lake” to the State Prison lately, paid out in actual expenses one hundred and fifty dollars moré than he received from the State. There should be sme provision in law for paying victs, which would justify an officer in une dertaking the work, Officers now-a-days do noet_receive such salariesis that they can atford to spend many hundred dollars for the good of the public. men for arresting and returning escaped con. LATER FROM THE EAST. New York, Nov. 13th.—A Nashville dis. patch to the Tribune says that the main rebel force under Polk and Bnckner is falling back southward. Bragg has resumed command, Gen. Joe Johnston's health being too. bad for field servicey Gen. Rosecrans has ordered the impréisment of négroes belonging to the rébels for fatigue duty. He has also organized a negro: pioneer corps. At present ourAdvance_is only upon the Northern bank of the Rappahannock, though Union scouting cavealry parties now there, veriture into Culpepper county, from one to five miles from the river. It is not believed at headquarters that the rebels now will venture to accept the chance for 4 serious battle oa this side of the Rappidan. Fortress Monroe, Nov. 11.—The Riehmond Enquirer of the 10th, says: ‘ Significant movements are progressing along the entire line. Gen. Lee’s army is stirring. Startling events seem to be rapidly approaching, promisirg a sharp and decisive winter campaign. In a few days a considerable change will probably take place in the present inactive state ef affairs.” LA FELIx, sister of the immortal Rachel, is causing immense sensation in Paris, ina new play at the Gaiete.
