INCAPABILITY OF THE BRITISH
OFFICEIiS.
"With nn army of British privates
and French officers," said Bonaparte,
near the end of his days, ''I could
conquer the world !" The judgment
of the great Corsican as to the in
competency of England's officers has
"been ratified by ninny wars. The
" blunder of Gen. White in sending a
force against a far larger army which
iras in a strong position ought to
compel his retirement from the army,
but it was not so destructive in its
consequences as was the folly of
Pakenham at New Orleans in 1815,
in attacking Jackson's forces which
were behind the cotton bales, when
lie could have flanked them with com
paratively little trouble. Gage made
a similar blunder at Bunker Hill.
uecumcniiy the mttisb gained a
"victory there, for they gained the
ground fought over, but it was at
such a loss of life and it brought out
tho Gghting qualities of the handful
of Americans so clearly that it was
morally a defeat.
In each case, and in many others
which could be cited, the mistake of
the British officers was partly due to
ohtuseness -and partly to contempt
for the fighting qualities of their
enemies. When Montcalm, during
the conflict known in American
history as the French and Indian
war, but which, in its larger aspect,
is known to the world as the seven
years' war, was stationed at Ticon
deroga with 3000 men to hold it
against the British advance under
Abercombie, the British having an
army of 15,000, some of bis officers
-wanted him to retreat, and many of
xnem Believed an attach would mean
not only French defeat, but the
capture of the whole French army.
Montcalm evidently knew Abcr
crombie, however, and consequently
held his ground. White's intellectu
al ancestor, Abercrombie, committed
a far more serious and costly blunder
than White, for he allowed Montcalm
to fortify his position, which, on one
side, was of great natural strength, f?9, t is the latest discovered digest

ho attacked it on that side instead of can approach it in efficiency. It in-
on the aides in which it was weak. ?iLel,eea?.nd??rnia,ie.ntlypures
refused to bring up his artillery, nnd
consequently the largest -and most
finely equipped British army which
bad ever appeared on the American
continent along to that time was
beaten with a loss of 2U00 men by a
farce numbering scarcely one-flfih of
its own.
Tho fighting qualities of the Brit
ish at Ticonderoga were superb, as
they proved to be At New Oi leans,
Bunker Hill and in the Transvaal,
but no amount of bravery on tho part
of private soldiers and lino of officers
can compensate for the stupidity of
commanders. When the youthful
Washington tried to teach the im-
pulsive and supercilious Braddock
the way In which to fight tko Indians
and tuo French, the latter of whom
fought in the Indian stylo when this
was advisable, Braddock refused to
hear him, but British historians arc
pretty well agreed that if the com
mander at that time had been Wash
ington instead of Bfnddoek the
French Fort Duquesno would have
been captured nnd the massacre of
British and colonial troops by the
Indians would have boon averted.
But neither Braddock's blunder nor
that of Aborcrombie in the same war
taught the British officers the rudi
ments of their trade, and this was
one of the reasons why, in the war a
dozen years afterward, the Americans
were successful, even under seriously
adverse conditions, in most of their
campaigns, and independence was
gained.
