Those who have taken their views of the Atoen.- cau Civil War from the representations of ti 'orth must Low begin to have some doubts of thei. n wisdom. Happy is it for England, and happy it be, we believe, for America, that they are a Finall minority, and that the great body of the r. ition has judged for itself in so important a matter. Had our Government and people been led way in the early part of this year to cheer on the crusade of the North, to echo its assertions about the weakness of the Secessionist movement, and to j )in in predicting the Union's speedy victory, what would have been our position now ? Instead of standing in a decent neutrality between two power ful and incensed nations, for so must they now be filled; instead of being able when the time comes 1) speak with the calm of impartiality and the con fidence derived from just anticipations, we should hive been merely a set of partisans doomed to ex- Plain away our hasty enthusiasm. Whatever may he the end of this American contest, Englishmen will be happy that they counselled peace. Should the Confederates establish their independence, they will not be able to accuse us of trying to strangle their nationality in the cradle. Should the present differences result in a" transaction" by which the old Union shall be soldered together for a time, then neither party will have it to say that the burdens left by a season of civil strife were increased by our evil counsels. If anything were needed to confirm this country in its policy, the present situation of nffairs would be quite enough. It is now plain that this must be a gigantic war. It is but four or five months since we were told that a single encounter would decide matters. Those who pro fessed to know the character of the Southerner and his opponent assured us that the former was a mere noisy swaggerer, who might fight pretty well I for a single day, but would be soon overthrown by the stern moral man of the North. How complete has been the mistake of those who took this view of the combatants may be judged from the present state of the campaign. General M'Clellan has, according to the testi mony of all, a very excellent body of men under his command. The active spirits from every Northern State have flocked to the war. These are far supe rior both in bodily strength and in mental culture to the average of European troops. A large part of them have been accustomed to the use of arms from early youth; they are quick and intelligent, fairly obedient to their officers, and they have already made very great advances in military dis cipline. Of these men there are said to be 200,00 n in or near Washinton. If we take this estimate as exaggerated, and reduce the number to 100,000, still we have an army most formidable in numbers and in the material of which it is composed. This great force has every military appliance which a wealthy and ingenious nation of twenty millions can give it. Rifles of the best construction, powder of the first quality, and guns of the most convenient calibre, both for the field and for sieges, are bought or manufactured in abundance by the United States Government. No better tents and blankets and greatcoats and stockings, we may be sure were ever furnished to an army. The men aro paid at an extravagantly high rate, and are able to provide themselves:with all they want, and even more than is good for them. The whole of the horse-breed ing West is open to furnish the means of transport. Thousands of mechanics out of work are ready to make carts and ambulance waggons, and all that an invading force requires. Such is the new army of the Potomac, and a more powerful one is seldom seen even on an European stage. Oa the other hand there are the Confederates, of whom all that we know is derived from Northern sources or comes to us from some chance traveller who has escaped by a circuitous route from the blockaded territory. If we take what their oppo nents say of them as true, they are the dupes or the slaves of a bold faction, which alone prolongs the war. Nothing is more constantly repeated than that an Union majority exists in every seceded State except South Carolina. Thus, of the six or seven millions of Whites in th e South, half must be reckoned as neutral, and the twenty millions of the North are really bearded by only three millions of traitors, who are, moreover, kept in constant fear by four millions of Negroes. This feeble and desperate faction is shut up in a country which can neither obtain the materials of war nor the neces saries of every-day life from abroad. It wants sulphur and lead, it wants tea and coffee and wine ; according to the Northern accounts, it wants even wheat-flour and woollen cloth. That it has little money everybody knows • and it has not the oppor tunity, even if it had the credit, to obtain a loan. The material deficiencies of the South arenotorious ; if, then, its political state were such as is repre sented, the army it puts in the field must be most contemptible. What is a minority of rowdies from a few States of the Union against the national forces, supported by the good-will of every State but one ? It seems to us that the theory of a divided South must have been given up even by those Washington politicians who held to it with such tenacity. Else why does not General M'Clellan, with his hundred thousand men, advance and disperse the rebels in his front ? The truth is that gradually, but surely, the conviction has come over his Government that among the hills and woods of Virginia there is a force not unequal to their own ; that this force, though far from being well provided with the means of campaigning, is yet able to make a desperate struggle for the positions it holds, and that the capture of these positions will have but little effect in reducing the country to obedience. While the argument about the Union party in the South is still repeated by the few advocates of the war who remain in England, it has been allowed to die out beyond the Atlantic. Such an army as General Johnson commands in Virginia could not be sup ported except by the efforts of the whole Confe derate people, and General M'Clellan shows his consciousness of the enemy's strength when he allows week after week to pass away in preparations and reconnaissances. The autumn is over ; the winter, which on the Potomac, is always very cold or very wet, is at hand ; and yet the Federal army has not opened the campaign. These fine troops, now far more fitted for war than any that ever fought against the British, are kept close in their quarters, and if they advance will move with the utmost slowness and caution. In the meantime the Federals are pressed even in their own capital. The Confederates have now closed the Potomac by batteries, which, though they may, it is said, be made untenable by shells from the other side, have for the present stopped the sup• plies for man and beast which were previously re ceived up the river. At various points in the long curve which the Potomac makes the Southerners were erecting their batteries, which seem to be too formidable for the Federal vessels to attack. But the event from which we can gain the best insight into the course of the campaign is the severe defeat which the Northerners suffered at Leesburg, and which, if later rumours be true, was followed by a still more important reverse a day or two after wards. The well-written narrative we gave of it was taken from the New York Tribune, which cannot ' he suspected of any favour towards the enemy, and it may, therefore, be concluded that these facts' are sufficiently accurate. In this bloody encounter one must readily admit that no disgrace attached to the Northern troops, who seem to have done all that can be expected of men. But the lesson should not be lost on those who have been all their lives boast ing of the repulses which they have inflicted on British colonies. The battle was the usual American battle, such as has been fought in three great wars already, and is now likely to determine the event of a fourth. In f ac t, th e accoun t we pu bli s h ed yes terday might, with changed names and numbers, apply almost accurately to the battle on the Monon gahela, in Which Braddock was defeated more th an a hundr e d ears ago, and which first brought the name of 'W as ,, um ton into notice. Th e pedantic veteran, wh o , w i th g marched his head f u ll of th e art of war, throughthe wilderness as if it were Flanders, and had eihalf his force destroyed by sharpshooters f rom h n e d trees, was but the forerunner of a Biirgoyn and a Pakenham, and now he has a successorin a Federal command er . One cannot read with out pity the os fate of thes e b river unfortunate men, brought up a high bank, into " a fi eld which acres, extendedroad back altogether some 12 or 15 occuied a very short distance, and Wa s on three sides bordered by thick woods." Of cours e , the rebels were familiar with the ground, and kn e precisely where to direct their volleys." o As e2:071 new line was formed the rebel volleys w ou ld seem to meet them and separate them, as if by lightnin g strokes, into broken and scattered groups." The end was a perfect rout. The drowning of the men in attempting to recross the river was a dreadful incident. Out of 1,800 men the loss, according to the official report, was 680. This battle is impor tant as being, perhaps, the type of those to come. What can the Federals hope for in a country like Virginia but a succession of Leesburg?, fought against enemies strongly posted, and ending in de feats or dearly purchased victories almost as fatal as defeats ? The terror inspired by the excesses of the Northern soldiers, which, bad enough in reality, are immensely exaggerated by Southern report, will make Virginians sell every mile of their coun try dearly, and leave nothing but a desert as they retreat. The blood of the South has been thoroughly roused against the " invaders," and the way in which the Confederate soldiers " crowded the high bank a nd Poured an incessant fire into the scattering fugitiveei" s h"ca the who t were plunging into the Potomac ducted. wer" in which the war will be con content that „ t raay our Government and people be 'A have, as far as is in their power, A deputation from the District Board of the parish of Fulham yesterday waited upon the Board to pre sent a memorial, urging the commencement forth with of the main drainage works for that district. The deputation consisted of Messrs. Crooke, Morri son, Coxhead, Hesketh, Hurst, Barnett, M'Crae, Ayres, Bean (surveyor), an d Li ve l y ( c l erk). The memorial stated that a large portion of this densely populated parish was entirely undrained, by reason of the sewage falling into the Thames and creating an enormous and pestilential mud bank, extending from the Creek to the Suspension-bridge, and they considered that the construction of local sewers in such places under present circumstances would be removing the evil from one place to create as great a nuisance in another. The open Stamfordbrook received a large amount of sewage from Harlsden• green, East Acton, and Turnham-green, spreading its baneful influence over a considerable portion of the best property through which it runs, to the great depreciation of the value of the property and an injury to the public health. In the parish of Fulham similar evils existed, and for a great extent open ditches of considerable length, formerly tidal, have, by frequent cleansing, had their beds lowered beneath the levels of the outfalls, and were thus converted into elongated cesspools, constantly charged with the most offensive and deleterious matter. Large areas, with a crowded population, were without any sewerage whatever, the whole being riddled with cesspools, which by percolation were poisoning the wells and rendering them unfit for domestic purposes, while the costly works of the Counters Creek Sewer had been of no benefit to them, being cut off by the West London Railway and the Kensington Canal. The inhabitants had cheerfully contributed to the main drainage rate, as the means for the removal of these evils, and they , trusted that the main drainage works for this dis trict would he commenced forthwith. An English gentleman had an Irish servant, whom he took as his attendant to a Highland grouse-shooting. The expense of the sport to the Englishman had been very great ; a large rent for muir, new guns, and muniments of war on grouse, high-bred dogs, a fashionable shooting costume, and a countless number of incidental charges. Unfor tunately, the sportsman was less expert than extra vagant. Like a friend of our own, of whom we have heard old Willie M— speak, " he was grand at the shooting, but no very guid at the killing ;" so, after the first week of the war, as the master and man were seated on a rock consoling themselves under the fatigue and disappointment of unsuccessful pursuit, the Englishman says, " Well, Pat, this is expensive work. I've been calculating that every one of these birds cost me above £50." " Faith, your honour," says Pat," throwing a dash of humour into the sympathising simplicity of his reply, " I'm sorry for that, but it's lucky there's no more of them." A traveller in Ireland, having been inclined to deny that the peasantry were humorous, was told to ask any question at the first labouring man he met on the road. Accordingly, on seeing a sturdy fellow breaking stones,:he says, " Now, my man, if the devil were to come here just now, whether would he take you or me P" " Me, to be sure,"says the man, "for he is certain of your honour at any time." A poor old Irish cripple sat begging at a bridge, urging his appeal to the charity of passengers with the eager and versatile eloquence of his coun try — a gentleman and lady —young, gay, and handsome, with that peculiar look of gratified and complacent consciousness which indicates the first few weeks of married life—crossed the bridge. They regarded not the petitions of the beggar ; so, just as they passed him, he exclaimed, " May the blessing of the Lord, which brings love, and joy, and wealth, and a fine family, follow you all the days of your life ;" a pause ; the couple passed heedlessly on, and the beg- gar, with a fine touch of caustic humour, added, " and never overtake you." Dean Ramsay tells us of a Scotsman whose ten der toe was trodden on; the offender said, " I'm very sorry, sir; I beg your pardon • and the onlyllaaer who , esaksirn2r and not mTo ouledgment w - as, " andi you've' as muckle our rh mind, on beinge there was some hiser u t prayers eh on the moved toes of not to humour in this.

They should divest their minds of any impression as to the ship not being lucky ; they had great difficulties to overcome, and it only ro quired perseverance to surmount every obstacle. They had a good property, and, at all events, the holders of the preference shares had good security. The directors had recently been offered £150,000 for the ship, but they refused it, believing it to be worth much more. The first and second mortgages of £60,000, including the proposed £25,000 would be amply covered by even the present offer of £150,000 for the ship. Captain CARNEGIE seconded the motion for the adoption of the report. A long discussion ensued on the management of the ship, and respecting other matters of a personal nature, chiefly as to the qualifications of the various officers, in which Captain Austin, Mr. Taylor, the Rev. Mr. Nicholson, and other proprietors took part. IrswicH LIFEBOAT FUND.—A general collection is to be made on Sunday, November 10, in the churches and chapels of Ipswich, and an auxiiiary public meeting will be hold in the council chamber on Monday, November 11, for the purpose of raising a fund to purchase a lifeboat, to bo presented by the town to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. About XlOO has been already subscribed, and, from the great sympathy shown by the several ministers and people, there is no doubt that the requisite sum will be raised, an example which we trust will bo speedily followed by other towns of equal importance, whereby the funds of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution may be greatly in creased. Lords Rendlesham and Henniker, Sir Fitzroy Kelly, M.P., J. Cobbold, Esq., M.P., Hugh Adair, Esq., M.P., C. Austin, Esq. (high steward of the borough), the Mayor, E. Grimwade, Esq., the Hon. F. De Groy, John Berners, Esq„ A. Arcodockne, Esq., George Josselyn, Esq., Robert Ransome, Escp, C. Tyrrell, Esq., and many other influential gentlemen, are patrons of this benevolent project. Mr. CROOKES addressed the Board in support of the memorial, and said that the evils complained of in the memorial extended over an area of 10 square miles, with 40,000 inhabitants. There had been attempts made to remedy these evils by means of a temporary character, but they had been. found to be altogether ineffectual until their local drainage could be passed into a large outfall sewer. They had received frequent complaints fnom the inhabit ants, and the medical officer had strengthened them in the opinion that they were suffering from the want of proper drainage. Mr. STEVENS moved that the memorial be referred to the Main Drainage Committee for consideration and report, and said he believed the Board would - The CHAIRMAN stated that a strict inquiry would take place as to the cause of the accident, but that inquiry had been delayed for the purpose of protect ing the interests of the shareholders.

" Well," said the hedger and ditcher, " keep on just as you aro going about a mile and a half. There, at the cross roads, you will see a minister who will direct you to the left a couple of miles, and there, at the fork of the road, is another minister, who will direct you to the right about three miles ; and so on at every fork and cross of the road is a minister to tell you which road to take." " Ah," said the parson, "what do you call ministers ?" " Why," said the other, " thoso things which stand up at the cross and forks of the road with something like a hand on them." •' Fingerboards, you mean," said the preacher; w hy do you call them ministers ?"

Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL thought they should leave the inquiry in the hands of the directors. He be lieved they were devoted to the interests of the company. 'There were many erroneous notions with regard to the capabilities of the ship. She was de- signed to trade between England and Australia, and when it was considered that the fastest ships took GO days to make the voyage to Australia, and that their great ship would perform the distance in 40 days, he thought they should immediately direct their attention to putting her on that line, which would pay them handsomely. If they had only half a cargo of goods and half the number of passengers they could accommodate, they would make an im mense profit. He then contrasted the strength of the ship with that of the ordinary vessels in having successfully resisted the usual effects of rolling help. lessly in the trough of the sea for two or three days without springing a leak or starting a rivet. That was a proof of the excellence of their ship. He then explained that the rudder head had been made so as to give way before th© rudder ; otherwise, he _ ~ .. .. acquit him of any charge of neglect in not press ing upon them on all occasions the necessity of commencing and completing the main drainage works for the parish of Fulham, and he trusted the time was not far distant, and that none would be lost in giving some satisfactory answer to the gen tlemen who formed the deputation.

The man had not effected the insurance, but being unwilling to lose so large a premium, instantly filled up the policy, and returned for answer, " The withdrawal is too late, the insurance has been effected, and the premium must be paid." To which message he received this brief reply :—" Friend, I am sorry for thee, for thee will be a great sufferer ; I have heard of the vessel ; vessel and cargo are both lost."
