and of unproductive if not imperilled capital, will unite in demanding that this be made a short war. Better employ in prosecuting it half a million of men for six months, than half that number for an indefinite period?better in every view and for every end. Jeff, argues with some shrewdness that President Lincoln has virtually acknowledged his Confederacy by calling out so many men to put it down.? But the presence for months of a secession army within a day's walk of the national metropolis is a good deal more to his purpose; and we feel that a disunion Congress meeting in security at Richmond, while the sitting of the National Congress at Washington is menaced by an imminent hostile army, will exert a fearful moral influence on the wrong side, not merely in this country, but in Europe. A rebellion which months are required to get ready to subdue glides insensibly into a revolution. A factious rebellion ought not to be starved out, but stamped out. And this Davis & Pn min Vio imnvt fio if fho rpnnisite ener gy is guided by the requisite ability. And it cannot be put dowD in any radically different way. That Naval Fight. The Raleigh State Journal of Wednesday publishes the following particulars of the naval encounter which our telegraphic reporter sends in the dispatches published this morning. A little steamer with one gun driving off one of Lincoln's war-steamers! So it runs all the time. What next?: "We learn that on Sunday morning, the 21st alt., the day of great victory at Manassa, the steamer Beaufort, Capt. Duvall, carrying one gun and 26 men, was attacked by a war steamer carrying 8 guns and 175 or 200 men, off Oregon Inlet. "The engagement commenced at a quarter past 10 o'clock, a m., and lasted threequarters of an hour; the gallant little Beaufort firing 8 shots, equal to 256 pounds of metal and 36 pounds of powder; the Liacolnite craft about IS shots, rifle caonon solid 32's and shell. The distance was about a mile and a quarter, aud most gallantly did the little Southern steamer sustain her position and the reputation of her flag; her first gun, as is supposed, striking the enemy between the main and mizzen mast, and most of the others taking effect in different parts of her unwieldy carca83. At all events she soon felt willing to get off the range of the Beaufort'* gun, and moved off sulkily and apparently in a leaking condition, keeptDg closely in shore in the direction of Hatteras. There is a battery on shore at Oregon Inlet, but for reasons unknown it did not co-operate with the Beaufort, the commandant refusing or neglecting to use the guns himself, or allowing the Beau/ort'e crew to use them. ? ? * - .t . C * 1 ? ?xnis, we Deneve, is me ursi uavai cucoanter between the fleets of belligerents, and to Lieut. Duvall and his gallant comrades belongs the honor of opening the ball on old ocean's waves. Nobody nor anything on the Beaufort was hurt." Maryland.?Our dispatches this morning announce that Gen. l)ix has a close watch upon the Maryland Legislature, in , order to prevent them from passing an ordinance of secession. The effeot of the defeat of the "grand j army" in Baltimore may be learned from j the following, which we And in the Rich-j moud Enquirer of Wednesday : "We state, upon unquestionable authori-1 ty, that the effect of the news of the fcdor-' al defeat upon the people of Maryland?the ! exultation on the one hand, and the con-j steruation on the other, bailies description, j In the city of Baltimore the demonstration j in favor of the Southern cause turned the i cheek of Lincoln's minions pale. Several i federal officers frankly ackowledeged to i citizens that they had been deceived?that , hundreds of men whom they had taken to be good Unionists were exultant at the news < from Virginia. Indeed, they said it was i hard to find a live Lincoluite outside ofji their invading forces. Nor were they with- j i out good reason to apprehend a revolt in ii their army ; for it was stated and believed i that a lumber of the troops stationed at j. the Relay House, on hearing the intelli-11 gence from Mauassa, openly cheered Jeff j Davis and the Southern Confederacy. Tnji most of the rural districts the feeling was 11 cordial and enthusiastic amoog the people ji for the Southern cause. Hundreds of fugi-11 tivee from the federal army had called upon j ] them, and begged for food and clothing, on i their way home, without leave of absence. [ "All accounts represent the army under |i McDowell as entirely demoralized. The j i returning soldiers do not hesitate to speuk: i to friend or foe of the hopelessness of the j subjugation cause. The troops who are| passing for borne, on their discharge, are i' like boys just let out of school for a holi-j1 day ; while those on their way to the feder- j' al capital wear very gloomy faces." < *> ?? Ely's Experience and Good Promi-i sf.s.?There are a great many prisoners in! Richmond, among them Ely, a Congress- j man. He says he had no idea of being ou > the battle ground, but Foster (a Senator), j came by him in a carriage and asked birn t to ride, and he went, and the first thiog hej knew of it the carriage run against some artillery and broke down, lie jumped out, and the bullets hailed so fast and thick that! he run and got behind a tree. Presently j some men come along, and thinking they were United States, he hailed them. Saidj one of them, '-who the h?1 are you " "I J am Ely, a member of Congress. "The| h?1 you are?come along with me, Mr. Ely." They carried him (this is Ely's story told to Pryor) to Col. Cash, I think, and he says Cash nearly frightened him to death, telling him, "damn him, he believed he would hang him there and then, and let it be thought he was killed in battle." Ely sent for Pryor, cried and hung around his neck and begged him to get him out.? Said he never made a speech against the South, that ho was always opposed to the way the administration was doing, and that if they would let him go he icouh/ have our privateers released, (hat they should'ut he hung, and that he would vote and speak right. When they marched Ely to jail into the room where the common soldiers were, which stunk like a jail will, crowded, he stopped on the threshold and said gracious mercy, you are not going to put me in with all these common soldiers, are you. The sentinel fixed his bayonet; and said, get in or I'll stave this bayonet through you. He sent for Wigfall and asked him what he supposed would be done with him. "Wigfall said "hang you, G?d d?n you, hang you." ita?- The Northern telegraphic reports state that the federals lost only six hundred killed aDd wounded in the battle of Manassas, and in the same breath call for eighty thousand fighting men. The people will say: "If you lost but six hundred men, what do you want with more ? If you lost twenty-thousand, we are not going to volunteer to follow in /he same icalce." Russell Leaving. A Manassas correspondent of the New York Commercial writes to that paper concerning the departure of the London Times' correspondent from the field of battle on Sunday, 21st. The Commercial, it is well to say, is a strong Black Republican paper ! "Last Sunday afternoon, Mr. G. P. Putnam, of this city, and a friend, were leisure-: ly walking on the road between Fairfax and Centreville, Virginia, at a point where a Michigan regiment was drawn up across the road. At this moment, from the dirccrection of Centreville, there came rushing onward a confused mass of transportation and artillery wagons, abulances, Congress men, carriages, horsemen, pedestrians. &c., all in headlong flight, on the way to Washington on "important business." Among these a solitary horseman, English as to his aspect, and fat and ruddy as to his appearance, galloped up with great rapidity, and demanded in stammering tones a passage through the line. His stammering utterance was more confused, owing to the doubt in his own mind whether he was at the mercy of a Union or a Secession regiment. The colonel refused to allow him to pass, but finally yielded, on his asserting that he was a civilian, and that he had a pass from General Scott. The pass showed that he was Wm. H. Russeil, LL. D., and the pussy Englishman gave new meaning to the fateful day of lBull* Run. ? ??p?? ? Thomas Francis Meaqher and xne New York Sixty-Ninth Regiment.? We learn from the New York Tribune, of the 26th ultimo, that Thomas Francis Meagher declared at Centreville that "the Southern Confederacy ought to be recognized to-morrow; they have beaten us handsomely, and are entitled to it." The Richmond Dispatch of Thursday confirms the report, as follows : Capt. Thomas F. Meagher, we are credibly informed, has undergone a complete conversion. A gentleman who has been upon a visit to Rio, happened to be in I Washington on the memorable 21st, and J conversed with a Roman Catholic clergy.' man, who had then just parted with Mr. I Meagher. The latter is represented as stating that he had never seen nor heaid of! such determined bravery?nor did he believe it was equaled in history?as thatmanifested by the Southern troops. They I > - j ? i e 1:1 I were evidently actuaieu uy a mve ui nucry, > felt that they were defending their liberties,! deserved liberty, and rather than fight a-! gain against them, he would volunteer in' their cause. Our informant states, in ad-! dition, that the telegram which represents! the Sixty-ninth Regiment as ready and wii-i liog to re-enlist, is totally false. Of all the i "Grand Army," this regiment bore itself! the most gallantly at Manassas; but it is | satisfied. Its members have been shame-' fully misled aud deluded, and they return j home to New York immediately, sorely re-1 penting of ever having placed confidence, in Republican falsehoods. How the News was Received at! Philadelphia.?Forney's Press thus tells | us how the news of the terrible defeat of j the Federals at Manassas was received in. that city: "The streets were speedily filled with! hundreds of nervous, pallid citizens, who j spoke in low fitful language of the probable | effect of the rcpuise upon the prolongation | of the war, the courage of our soldierly,' and the inhuman exultation of the rebels. Had an epidemic swept over the city, or desolation entered into its houses, or each man fo!t in hisa heart, the fuhled death, nr 'v,v ~ 7 ~ ' I anything of individual or personal rnisfor-! tune occurred, there might have been some! cheerfulness to light up the anxious faces.! In this case, however, it was an imperilled nation which implied to every Philadelphian in imperilled home and a disgraced people. "The brightness of the sky seemed suddenly overcast, the quick pulses of the morning beat slowly and sadly; there was sorrow in every household, and the terrors of war came home to our once happy peo-; pie in all their ignominy and acuteness. We heard of a number of cases wherei weak and aged citizens fell half lifeless at j the first intimation, and many were taken j ro their beds, under circumstances of almost hopeless recovery " Tiie Reaction.?The Democracy of Iowa have held a State Convention, in which resolutions were unanimously passed, con- \ demnatory of Lincoln's war, and in favor; of peace. In Maine, a State Convention of all opposed to Lincoln's war, has been called by j the Democratic State CeDtrul Committee In New Hampshire, the Democrats, those who voted for Douglas as well as those who voted for Rreckiuridge, are opposed to the war, and have called a State Convention of all who are in favor of a prompt cessation of hostilities and the recognition of the Confederate States. The same action has been takeu by the j Democratic State Central Committee of O-1 hio. We saw a letter the other day from a gentlemen in Western New York, a lilack Republican, to his son in this city, in which j it was stated that if any more soldiers are I obtaiued in this vicinity, they wili be drafted, as no more will volunteer. More than fifty newspapers in the Freej States have already taken bold and manly i ground against the usurpations of Abraham I Lincoln. Army Order. War Department, Adj't Gen's Office, Washington, July 19, 1801. Major-General Robert Patterson, of the] Pennsylvania Volunteers, will be honor-1 ably discharged from the service of the United States on the 27th inst., when his term of duty will expire. Brevet MajorGen. Cadwallader, also of the Pennsylvan! ia Volunteers, will be honorably discharged upon the receipt of this order, his term of service expires to-day. By order : L. THOMAS. Adj. Gen. - Lord Lyons.?It is stated that Lord Lyons, on seeing the fugitive federals making their way back to Washington in forlorn plight from the battle of Bull Run, j quietly remarked, that he hoped Mr. Lincoln's Government would not any longer think hard of the British Government for j recognizing the Southerners as "belliger'ents" at least. j How they Meant to have Celebrai ted our Defeat.?We have understood from an army officer, who was in the fight at Bull Kan, that ladies' wearing apparel was certainly taken among the effects of the enemy. They were ball dresses. A printing press was also found, and invitation cards, showing that a grand ball was to come off in Richmond on the Monday night succeeding, for which the enemy had provided all kinds of confectionery. What a pity that such a nice programme was spoiled? Promotion of Brigadier-General Beauregard.?On yesterday, in executive session of Congress, the President sent in j a communication nominating G T. Beauj regard to the rank of full "General" in the Confederate Army, in which nomination Congress unanimously concurred. The proper official title of this rank, according *<-. tlio nnf Pnnrtroco rvreranizincr thp ftrmV. IU IUU UUI KJi. VWU^iVPU v^*Q ? ? - ? J J approved May 16, 1861, is simply " 'General' instead of Brigadier-Generalthe former denomination being the highest military grade known to the Confederate States. Congress has also provided, in the organization cf the army, that the appointments to the rank of "General" shall be made by selection from the army?thus limiting this rank to rewards, as in the present instance, for distinguished military services. The nomination was ratified without the usual reference, as a mark of compliment from Congress. The commission of General Beauregard is to date from the 21st of Jaly, 1861, the date of the victory at Manassas. Richmond Examiner, 31sr. Handcuffs for the South.?The Southern press should keep before the people of the South and of the world the astounding and unparalleled fact, that the army which invaded Virginia brought with them thirty thousand handcuffs, which were taken with the other spoils from the enemy ! This surpasses all that we have ever heard of Russian or Austrian despotism. It is almost impossible to realize that, in the United States, boasting itself as the freest and the most civilized of all nations, the most deliberate, inhuman and atrocious plan should have been formed to degrade and enslave a free people of which there is any record in this or any other age. Who ever heard, even in despotic Europe, of an invading army travelling with thirty thousand handcuffs as a part of its equipments ? Richmond Dispatch Our Commissioners in Europe.?A New York letter in the Philadelphia Led yer has the following significant paragraph: Private advices from London, received yesterday by the steamer Xeio Yuri;, say that the Commissioners of the 0. S. A. (all three of them) had returned from Paris.? Though not countenanced officially, a leadiuu commercial authority hints that the Manchester Cotton Lords were hand in glove with them. It is also mentioned, as a significant fact, iu the same counectioo, that the vacancy occasioned in the British Cabinet by the retirement of the Minister of War is likely to be filled by Mr. Gregory, M P. fromGalway, an individual who has made himself notorious for his unseemly zeal in urging, in the House of Cotn-j mons, the recognition of the Confederacy. Col. E. M. Law. From dispatches from Manassas we are sorry to learn that this gentleman, formerly Captain of the Alabama Zouave*, was wounded at the battle of Manassas, lie i was shot with a Minnie ball in the left arm. Col. Law is a native of South Carolina, but has resided in Tuskegee for some time.? He is a regular graduate of the South Carolina Military Institute, and is one of the "rising stars" iu the Confederate Army.?By the death of Col. Egbert Jones of Huutsville, be is made Colonel of the 4th Alabama Regiment lie will lead them anywhere, that the honor of battle can be ?\lnf?L-ort ?Tn<ibrpfii'j> I Aln.A Sf.ntp*. - V / ? Admiral Milne on the Blockade. The Pensacola correspondent of the New York Times states that Admiral Milne has sent a report of the blockade to the British Admiralty, in which he says that he considers that the blockade is totally inefficient. The Admiral mention numerous cases of ships, barks and brigs escaping the cruisers. A grace of fifteen days was given to vessels under certain circum-! stauces, which were so confusedly explain- j ed, that no one could properly understand them. Three British ships, laden with cotton, in the harbor of Mobile, were compelled to pack up and go away, to fulfill this requirement; while, under almost similar circumstances, four barks and brigs were permitted to commence loading at another point, on the twentieth day afcr the announcement of the blockade. Valuable Trophies. ? Among the spoils taken on the field, on the eventful contest of the 21st, was the celebrated 11. Island Battery, Captain Tornkins It was composed of six rifled cannon, made by Senator James, manned by 130 men, with 98 horses The guns weigh nearly 875 pounds each, and can be fired with astonishing accuracy. Each gun is provided with a kind of telescopic arrangement instead of the ordinary sight, and by means of this can strike a tree which may be so far distant as to be hardly perceptible to the na ked eye. The guns are nominally 6-pounders, but the shells used weigh nearly fourteen pounds, and are self-exploding. The guns comprising this battery were made for the State of Alabama, but after that State seceded, the captain refused to carry out his contract. 44#^ Increasing Our Forces ?The Secretary of War of the Confederate States has made his report. We learn from the Richmond Examiner that it demands a large increase of the forces oi the Confederate States, footing up, with those already iu the field, full 500,000 men. The Secretary is understood to give in his report an able and j elaborate summary of our military operations for the past ninety days, embracing jtuany valuable and interesting details. T. . L _ l j /i :.i 4 j it is 10 va aopeu uiau v^uugiess, wiuiuul ! unnecessary delay, will vote the War Deipartinent the full extent of its call for i troops This is a great war, and can be made long or short just in proportion to the amount of energy and resources thrown into it at the outset. Aholition Congressmen in Batile. ?A correspondent of the New York Daily Times has the following : "Congress adjourned Friday until Monday, expressly to allow the members to see the show. Neither Congress nor the Union wish to see another such a sight. At the grand stampede civilians were awfully soared, and I think several of thein were taken prisoners. I witnessed some terrific feats of running among them. Many lost their carriages, and, for anght I know, are skulking about the woods now. One very fat Congressman offered an artilleryman ?20 for a horse; but after he had the horse, he found it so hard to mount that he turned pale all over. He John Oilpined along, near my legs, until his horse threw him, when his agony was fearful. Three of us boosted him up, and he cut again as though the d?1 was after him. That M. C. will never go to the wars again." Treachery and its Reward.?The Richmond Examiner, of yesterday, says: There is no doubt that the vilest treachery was practiced on the Manassas Railroad, to defeat a junction between the forces of Gens. Johnson and Beauregard. The train conductor, when seized and charged with his treason, confessed to having been tampered with by the enemy, and to have received the sum of eight hundred dollars to cod trive to defeat the union of our forces. So scon as he reached Manassas, he was tried, and ordered, by Gen. Beauregard, to be shot. It is only by such stern and severe examples, that treason can be put down, and our soldiers preserved from destruction. Our informant learned that, on the same day, a like stern visitation of jus tice was meted out to a recreant Georgian, caught in the act of piloting the enemy in their maroh on our lines. Narrow Escape.?Owen Lovjoy was on the battle field. How he escaped is thus described by a correspondent: Owen Lovejoy, whose morbid hatred of the Southerners appears frequently to tempt him into dangers his fanaticism cannot appreciate, narrowly escaped beiDg made a prisoner. Twice he had loaned the horses which lie had been provided to officers of the Federal requesting their use, aud when at last the retreat was began Lovejoy found his attempt to rejoin the retiring army frustrated by a column of the enemy, which intercepted his progress in that direction. He then boldly struck for the woods, and, his flight quickened by a proper estimation of the dangers which would attend his capture, he succeeded in safely traversing seveu miles of intervening woods and reaching Centreville, where he was supplied with means of reaching Washington. The Twenty-First op July.?On the 21st of July, 1403, the great battle of Shrewsbury took place between Henry IV. aud Henry Percy, in which several earls, 2300 gentlemen, and G000 privates were slain. On the 21st of July, 1708, the battle of the Pyramids in E?rypt. The French, under Bonaparte, met Murad and twenty-two other Beys, defeated them, took forty cannon and all the baggage and provisions of the enemy. Cairo surrendered to him, and the whole of Lower Kgypt bowed before the prowess of his arms. On the 21st of July, 1801, the army of the Southern Confederacy met the United States army at Stone Bridge, in Virginia, and gained a signal victory, slaughtering the enemy most frightfully. Building cp of the Navy.?We learn l that the proposition, which has already obtained the attention of Congress, to make a general offer to purchase such foreign steamers as may run the blockade into our ports, is likely to be favorably entertained. This plan to build up a navy is adapted to present necessities. The difficulties in the way of building war vespels in the South are the present limited facilities for forging, shafting, &c. The establishment of lar e machine shops to do the heaviest engine work, as at the Washington navy-yard, would displace the only difficulties in our way of building for ourselves naval steamers to compete with those of the Yankees. The People want Peace. ? Under this! head the Pittsbure Reouhlikaner has the i o I following, (copied from another German j paper, and originally published in that! language.) The Pittsburg Dispatch vouch-! es for the correctness of the translation : "The people want peace! About one! thousand Gormaus of this town went to war. But what were their motives for going!' Certainly not patriotism, misconception or delusion?but want of employment, poverty and family misery. They couldn't cam enough to live on neither for themselves nor their families, and they relied on the aid of sooiety ; but in this expectation, also, deceit and disappointment was their fate." One op the Connecticut Boys.?The letters which the Yankees left behind them in their flight from Stone Bridge afford some indication of the moral, religion and political sentiment of Northern people.? We have seen several, among which is onej addressed to one of the Connecticut boys, from which we copy a few words: "There is no news here at present, except that exGovernor Seymour has turned traitor, with eighteen others in the Legislature. Why, William, there is more damned traitors| here than there is in the South. South Carolina has now in Virginia the following Regiments : Kershaw's. Williams', Sloan's, Cash's Bacon's Blandiug's, Winder's, Hampton's and Jenkins'. Col. Orr's Regiment is expected to day, and that of Colonel Maxcy Gregg, early next week?making an aggregate of eleven regiments. Besides these, three others are organized and under orders?Cols. Hagood, McGowan and Nelson. These regiments are all full, aud will average 1000 each.? Richmond Examiner. I S&* The Yankee Government has determind to create a military prison for the incarceration of the Southern array and navy officers and has set apart Fort Lafayette, in New York harbor, for that pupose. In this connection we may mention that of the 30,000 handcuffs taken at Manassas, a large proportion were in boxes marked significantly "for officers." It is reliably stated, on the most undoubted evidence, that when the news was received at Washington of the capture of Sherman's battery, Gen. Scott privately or dered six cannon to be taken from the Navy Yard and sent to Alexandria, with horses, and have them brought back to Washington with the announcement that it was Sherman's battery. Not Panic-Stricken, hut ''Thrashed."?A captain of the federal army, who was fully in the great fight last Sunday week, on being asked by some of his Washington friends to explain the cause of the panic which produced the disaster to their arms, answerd, "Don't talk about panic! We were3oundly thrashed, and had to get away to escape annihilation." The Stories op the Prisoners.?We 1 hear of bat one account, with few accepcions, from all the prisoners taken by our men everywhere, and that is, they came here without any intention of fighting the South, but were compelled to unite in the invading movement, and that if they were home they would never be caught in such a scrape again. The last assertion may be true, but not a word of the rest. The circumstances under which they left the North are known to the South as well as to themselves, and their very name and organization, volunteers, contradicts every word they utter. We confess we have more respect for the most impudent among them? J Colonel Corcoran, for example, who, we un- -v derstand, says : "I went into the business with my whole soul, and I wouldnt't take my parole if they'd give it to me." We once heard of a noted Yankee exploiter, who said in a burst of enthusiasm over some successful humbug he had played off upon our countrymen : "I do like the Southern \ people; they are so credulous." That ' seems to be the general opinion in the North.?Richmond Dispatch. YORKVILLE FEMALE COLLEGE. THE exercises of this Institution will be rcRuined on MONDAY, tilt: 18th instnnt.
