ingtOn.

To persons unacquainted with the science of
war. it may appear strange that the two contend
ing armies now in the field in sight of each other,
do not Immediately come into collision; and no
doubt many have come to the conclusion that
there will be no great battle after all. That is
very unsafe conclusion. 1t is evident that the
generals on either side are maneuvering in order
to obtain some important point which would
throw the chances of victory in favor of the army
which gained the vantage ground The risk of a
general battle with many troops is immense,
and neither side seems willing to take the initiative
at a disadvantage, though either would gladly
give light on their own ground.
The responsibility is great and the generals
are naturally cautious. Davis, it appears to us /,
Is too much so for success. He seems to have
lost his opportunity. In revolution and in war
the assailing party are, for the most part ANNA
ted with greater courage and fight better than the
party who remain on the defensive. Napoleon
never waited to be attacked.
That there will be a great battle, however,
there seems to be no reason to doubt. When
General Scott is ready he will make such an at
tack as will prove successful. At present he is
outnumbered by the enemy; but that will not
long be the case. There is only one thing can
prevent battle, and that is that the rebel Gen
erals lay down their arms and submit the ques
tons at issue to the arbitration of the people, or
their representatives to the United States Con-
gress, or to a convention of tie people of all the
States. By adopting this course they may save
their necks from the halter and the country from
the effuson of blood. But if they will persist in
settling the question by the arbitrament of the
sword, then they must perish by the sword. The
integrity of the Union must be maintained at all
hazards. But General Scott, secure with his in
trenchments at Washington, as was the Duke of
Wellington within his famous lines of Torres
Vedras, will run no risk.-N. Y. Herald.

The Eufure.

The New York Tribune of Tuesday last con-
tains the following comments upon the present
aspect Of public affairs which reproduce as the
impressions of the leading Republican organ of
the North: I'VE once again call attention to the
structures of our Washington correspondent upon
the course of public affairs. He states that the
reason why Harper's Ferry was not occupied by
the national troops week ago is that the Gen.
eral commanding there is imbecile or traitorous.
and failed to obey the orders of Gen. ScoTr. Not
withstanding this, no investigation has been Or
dered nor any reprimand administered, any more
than in the case of the blunders and the slaughter
at Great Bethel and Vienna. But the most start
ling point of our correspondents letter is the
statement that no vigorous military movement is
intended by the Administration, or. to speak more
exactly by the Cabinet, the war is to be dragged
along until the people, weary of armies without
action, and taxes without triumphs, be brought
10 consent TO some compromise like that Of Mr..
CRIrTESDEN. If this purpose, anything APP
preaching it, is really entertained by the Cabinet,
or by any members Of it, we warn those gentle
men that they can not much longer remain in the
service of the United States. Indeed, they might
as well begin to pack their trunks now"

Affairs at Rich mond.

Parties who have been in Richmond, Va, for
some six or eight days past on business, and left
there on Monday morning, arriving in Baltimore
the same evening, represent military movement
in that region of Virginia on formidable
scale.
From the best sources of information it wa.
evident there could not be less than 30 900 Con
federate troops in and around the immediate vi
cinity of Richmond all well armed and thorough
ly drilled.
The place is fortified in the strongest manner
on each side and at every point likely to be ap-
preached by the enemy. More troops, from States
further South, offering than could be accept
ed. The New Orleans Zouave regiment is said
to be Incompatible and terrible in appearance.
But one feeling runs through the entire army,
animating equally civilian and soldier, including
men, women and children. and that was to strike
at the hazard of life, fortune, honor, everything
for the defense of their homes and what they con-
slider to be their inaenable rights The troops
are represented as being in good spirits, with
plenty to eat, drink and wear.
Conflicts with the Government forces we're ex-
pected daily 1t was supposed in Richmond that
engagements would take place very soon near
Leesburg, Williamsport, and other places where
the Federal troops from the West were preparing
to penetrate. Large forces of the Confederates
had gone out in that direction. The citizens OF
Richmond, with few exceptions, remain in the
city.
Ii is said the soldiers are anxious to meet their
foe and think only of victory at whatever sacri-
fee As with the Government at Washington,
great secrecy is observed with reference to the
movements of troops, military designs, &c.

we make loyal people out of the citizens of
these rebellious Statesf The theory of our Gov
eminent and the vitality of our institutions rest
upon the consent of the governed. Can we have
union with people who are hostile to the Gov
eminent? Can we force them to taken part in a
Government to which they have sworn opposition,
from which they have cut themselves loose? five
subdue the armed forces of the Confederate
States, can we force them to remain in the Union
withous changing the character of our Govern
ment? The spirit of our institutions have been
changed since the war began, perhaps from the
necessity of the case, and revolutions never go
backward. These issues will soon be forced upon
the consideration of the people Of the country.
and if we have but one Government in the future
there can be no doubt it will be essentially
changed,

Financial and Commercial Summary
for the Past Week.

There has been no new feature developed in the
money market since our last. The amount of
acceptable paper offering continues quite light,
and such is in demand by our banking houses at
l0@l2 per cent. per annum. There is, in fact,
little or no legitimate demand for money from our
merchants, and hence the extreme light offerings
of first class business paper.
The numerous State and United States loans
now advertised for, offer the most admirable op
portunitiss for safe and profitable investment, by
which capitalists will be able to realize from to
per cent. per annum, tree from taxation; and no
doubt that a large amount of the idle capital now
in the hands of the community will be invested
in this way, as the bonds of any of the free
States or of the United States, constitute as good
security any extant. OF this there is, we pre-
sumo, no doubt. Exchange is a shade easier,
with moderate demand, but our quotations are
about the same those given in our last, with
the exception that Baltimore is nominal. We
would state that the inside quotations, refer only,
to the Valley Bank and we would also say that
about the middle of the week, rates for all ruled
shade higher than our quotations, the selling
rate being y and the buying d prem. The
rates at the close were follows:
Buying Selling
