The CRIMEAN WAR.-Gen. Jesup, the Quarter
master General of the U. s. army, and an old SOL
der OF experience, commenting upon Marshal Vail
ants exposition of the Crimean War, says he
never able to comprehend before that exposition
the operations of the allied armies 10 the Crimea
which were in violation of the military axiom which
requires the army in the field to be driven out be
fore important fortress is attacked. The French
we're not able to do so for want of of trans
portatiOn, which prevented them going twenty-five
miles FROM their ships. For force of three hun
dred and nine thousand men they employed less than
half the number of animals fer all purposes during
the war which we supplied for draft and packing
alone for our army in Mexico, which never exceed
ed As, 900 men. Gen. j., says:
Il hope our county may never have occasion to
go to again, but the closely look into the
details, well as the strategic combination of Eu-
ropean armies, the less fear war. Those armies
have fair stock of professional intelligence, but il
they have genius, think it is genius in its decreP

Despatch from Capt. Davis, of the st.
MaTy's.

Capt. Davis Of the United States ship st. Mary'S,
Ia recent official dispatches TO the government, says
il was the opinion of those who bad better means
of knowing than hims If that month before those
dispatches were written General Walker could at
any moment have passed the enemy's line and main
tanned himself in the open country. Since then the
assertions have been numerous and frequent, not
only diminishing the numbers Of his army bet de-
morazing its character; that towards the end OF
April the only resort for Walker to cut his way
down TO the coast and take refuge, if possible, on
board the schooner Grenada.
According TO the best Intelligence, such an at
tempt would only have been the last effort of dis
pair, and have terminated fatally in less than FIVE
mile from Rivas. The time had therefore arrived
for determining the course to be pursued in the
case anticipated the Instructions received by Capt.
Davis in January lIst-tnat ia, in the event Of the
expulsion OF Walker ard his forces from Nicaragua
by the allied armies, and bis departure to the acja-
cent territories 10 Central America for the purpose
of hOstties and aggressive operations. The reason
assigned by Captain Davis for the seizure Of the
Grenada is that Walkers vessellost her nationality,
was belligerant aud should not therefore pass his
guns.

YroKsRuRe. SHREVEPORT AND TEXAS Rail

VIcKsBURG, SHREVEPORT AND TEXAS RAIL
ROAD. Imprint MOUe.-Col. Bonner, the
engineer in-chief of the above railroad, and
who arrived here few days since, informs US
that at meeting Of the Board held at Mon
roe on the "a instant, resolutions were adop-
ted, authorizing Or. Young, the President of
the Company, to issue bonds of the Company
to the amount of two million dollars, for the
more vigorous prosecution Of the work upon
the road. These bonds are TO bear eight per
cent interest, payable half yearly, and redeem
able by the Company in twenty years. To
secure the payment Of these bonds, the rail-
road lands and all rights and privileges Of the
Company will be pledged. DR. Young has
already set out for New York, and should his
mission prove succesful-of which we have no
doub,-the Company will be placed in posses
sion of abundant means TO complete the road
at an early day.
This is the most agreeable intelligence con-
nected with the interest aud progress of our
road that has reached us for many day. We
have always felt assured that such step
would at some time be taken, as the only one
10 insure the early completion of the road; but
our qualification is renewed and heightened
by the knowledge that the ali-important
measure has been adopted, and the conviction
that the Company have determined TO push
forward their ruad with the utmost energy

The discussion at somervi,Ie.

SoMERvILLE, June 8, 1857.
EDITORS NASHVILLE PATRIOT Yesterday bav
Ing been the day fixed upon by the candidates for
GOVERNOR to address the people of Fayette county,
a. this place, at early hour the streets of Som
ef''ile were thronged with Wings, Americans, and
oag-nicht Democrats, from every quarter of the
county. And especially, were the Sag-nicht DEM
ocrats out in force for not only had the news been
conveyed through the hills and bellows of the coun-
ty, that Mr.. Hatton was nothing in the hands OF
Gen. Harris, but the "war whoop" had been raised,
summouing the faithful to appear, in solid column,
to witness what skill, what ability, what adroit
ness, the General woul show, in Staying his com
petitor, and putting to fight the hosts Of the Amer
lean and Wing army. And in such numbers we're
they out, that some of the more Responding Of our
party and friends, were made to quake with fear,
upon the pending issue.
Well, the hour for which the great work was to
commence having rolled round, and the signal for
ralying given, Gen. Harris took the stand, and for
one hour and half, through the sophistry of the
demagogue, and the arts of the politician, he en-
deavored TO execute the mission confded to him by
the Sag Nicht Democracy. And wei would be have
succeeded. had the proceedings of the day stopped
with the closing of his speech. But, alasl for the
General and his cause; there were two acts in the
drama. Amidst an applause thaeindicated anything
else than total route OF the American forces, Mr..
Hatton rose to reply. And although a stranger,
and but little known by reputation to the vast crowd
of naorla who had assembled IN hear the discus
sion, it not long before it was fully manifested
upon the countensnces of the audience, that there
was a Snog from the cedar ridges of Lebanon 10
their very milst. Step by step did he fol-
low the General, exposing his sOphistry, here,
and making bare the arts of the politician
there, uatl not a vestige of the fine spun tale
of his competitor was left for his friends to rest
hope of conscious victory upon. Indeed, MesSrs.
Editors,-for have no idea of attempting a synop-
sis the debate,-it was great day for the Wings
and Americans of Fayette county. A better pleased
and eated set Of auditors, have not seen in many
day in the town of Somerville. And in fact, and
10 all candor, l have never witnessed a more COM
plete and Triumphant victory for any speaker of
my party, since have been allied with party poll
tics, saving that ever memorable one, gained by
COL John Netherland over COL John J. Potts, from
the same stand and before the same people, in
lS4S.
With Robert Hatton as our standard-bearer, and
from what saw and heard of him, can cordially
say, fear not the result next August.
GOOD NEWS.
We received yesterday letter, due some
days since, from Covington, giving descrip-
ton Of the glsdiatorial contest there. Our
correspondent was highly delighted with the
result, and claims for our gallant standard
bearer decided victory. Want of room COM
pes US to omit this letter

The Canvass.

An intelligent gentleman, who heard the de-
bate between the candidates for Governor at
Camden and Huntingdon, in private letter to
US, from the latter place, remarks:
"a will say to you that the accounts you have re-
ceived are not exaggerated. 1 never Witnessed a
more complete triumph than Hatton achieved over
Harris The democracy fel: it, and many of them
acknowledged it. Some of them went so far as to
say, that Harris views on the land question did not
suit them The canvass in this portion of the State
has opened auspicousy for Americanism. Resras-
sured that Hatton will acquit himself noby."
