GREAT BArTLBs.-A losing gamester Is al.
ways desirous of putting everything upon the
hazard of o single die, and 1t Is 30 with despe-
rate generals, and with desperate men In every
situation. A lost campaign may be retrieved
BY signal victory, and cannot be more than
lost by signal defeat.
In the actual position Of affairs, It is not we,
but the rebels, who should desire great bat
tic. There Is always degree of uncertainty
about the Issue Of such battle liable as 1t is
to be controlled by many accidents, want OF
90 operation among the different divisions Of
the same army, panics, &C., &c. Such battle
subjects us to risks which we need not run
and gives the enemy chances, which he greatly
wants. Our true policy does not lie In that di-
rection at all. With our preponderancs in
numbers, and superior abundance Of powder
and munitions Of all sorts, the policy dictated
10 US by circumstances is that of small engage
menu and constant fighting. Where we are
near enough to the enemy for that purpose, no
opportunity Of combat on email scale should
be unsvailed Of. That line of tactics Is. sure
destroy him, as he cannot supply losses In
men 'ud materials a. we can. II Is the policy
o' sosoiIse safety. As to great battles, while
ws may win hem, 90 also we may lose them,
and We are not In predicament which compels
% to risk everything e9on the turn Of a single
card.

The BERAupA.-The story that this steamer,
which recently run the blockade and got into
Savannah, had 40, 900 stand Of arms, Is intrinsi-
cally improbable. The rebels would not risk
so much upon single venture. If they had
purchased 10000 stand Of arms, they would
be more likely to ship them by half dozen
steamers, so as to increase the chance Of get
ting part of thsm. Tho New York Tribune,
of yesterday, says:
"That the Bermuda has run the blockade,
we have no doubt A gentleman arrived here
last week from Savannah, by way Of Louis
isvile, who assures US of the fact, and as he is
vouched for to us as a man in whose word i'm
plicit reliance may be placed, we see no reason
for doubling his statement 1t is In itself
moreover, entirely credible.
| He assures US that Mr.. Edward G. Ander
sou, an ex Mayor Of Savannah, went over tc
England in Lord Ducie's yacht America, whict
was, if our memory serves US, in the port o
Charleston some time 10 June, for the express
purpose Of buying arms. The Bermuda wa
sent out by Mr.. Anderson and brought $500
Enfeld rifles purchased by him. This, we IN
deIstand from our Informant, Is only one iu
stallment Of Mr.. Anderson's purchases, as thre
to five more steamers are looked for with con
fdence at Savannah, all to bring arms. Tht
Bermuda gets, of course, o high freight OF
these arns, but ber profit will be still large
! on return cargo Of cotton, should she be o,
fortunate In getting out as she was In getting
in; and the double chance Of good voyag,
both ways is inducement enough for all thes'
steamers to take the risk Of capture"

Well, What OF TT

Shall we be pardoned for gently insinuating
our fears that the sensibilities Of that body Of
intelligent and patriotic citizens who applied,
by memorial, to the Secretary Of State, in ref
erence to certain Objectionable observations
emanating from an attdche Of the London
Times, now travelling in this country, have be-
come very acute-not to say morbid? 1t
would certainly be the gravs.t insult that one
could offer to these intelligent aud patriotic
citizens, to hint that our cause had become so
weak-had lost so much of its God-snointed
dignity, that Its high and holy front could be
blemished or humbled BY any Of the selfish,
senseless, or reckless surmises Of any paid and
special correspondent Of any newspaper in the
civilized world. Why then notice such trivial
matters In manner so entirely unsuited to
their trifing Import Why fret because a mote
comes between you and the sum- Suppose the
correspondent of the London Times does scrib-
bles And suppose the London Times does print
his scribbling, what Of 1t, after allS Of course
you are justified In feeling some regret that one
who has been honored with "a little brief au'
| thority" should turn It to such poor account.
his lack Of good taste and discrimination, but
for all this we are not impressed with the utility
Of an appeal to the Secretary Of State, whose
time is at present taken up with matters of In.
hnitely more Importance.
In bis reply to this memorial, Mr.. Seward
has said all that 1t Is possible and fitting to say
on the subject. The conclusions at which he
arrives are such as must inevitably presen,
themselves to the minds OF all sensible men
| We cannot see how the memorial helps the
matter at all, except 10 the matter Of making O
mountain out Of mole hill.
That cause, the righteousness Of which the
truly patriotic portion Of the American people
have arisen as one man to vindicate, has nc
need of defence from the pen Of any alien writer
In any county under the sun. Its most potent
pleader Is in the hearts Of its advocates. Lei
the nations talk. We look not to any but tc
our own people for an entire and implicit con
fdence in the ultimate success of this our right
full endeavor When we shall have accom-
plished II, then we shall have conquered the
respectful Acknowledgements Of the lockers. on
In the meantime, let us have no senseless whin
ing about minute obstacles in our path, which
1t Is wiser to step ouer than to pause and wastt
our precious time iu removing.
Let 1t not be said OF Americans that we d.
not sufficiently appreciate the dignity aud i'm
portance OF our position at the present moment
OF one thing rest assured. Everywhere, and II
all countries, the truth and the justice of oui
cause will raise up to us earnest and enthusiastic
allies among all generous, noble, aud homes
men. Even now, numbers Of the gallant spirit
are Fastening, all uuimplored, to our aid
drawn hither by the resistless eloquence of ou

From Fortroaa Monroe.

The Baltimore Patriot Of last evening says:
We learn from passenger who came up 10
the boat this morning from Old Point, that the
steamer Merrimsc, which was sunk In Norfolk
hsrbor and subsequently raised by the rebels
and put In complete repair, came down yester-
day afternoon to Sewell's Point, and remained
at anchor there under the protection Of the
guns of the battery on shore. Her object was
not known. She was heavily plated with rail-
road iron, supposed to be part Of those taken
BY thu rebels from the track Of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad near Martinsburg.
A woman dressed In mourning, who went
down In the boat from Baltimore on Saturday
evening, was arrested on her arrival at Old
Point, and upon her person were found num-
Der Of letters addressed to parties In the South.
A white man and black man, while attempt
ing to cross the Potomac In a boat near Aqua
Creek, were captured by Government steam

Fortress Monroe. The white man had eighty

hundred and seventy five dollars.
A number Of passengers were brought up In

TaE DELAWARE INDIANS AND THE WAR.-The
following address from the Delaware Nation oi
Indians has been sent to George Mcintosh, head
chief of the Creek Nation, with request that
It be communicated to some thirty other tribes
in the South and Southwest:
DELAWARE NATION, STATE OF KANSAS,
September oath, 1861.
Anderson Sarkoxie, head chief of the Della
wares, In tho State of Kansas, and Ne-cou-he-
quin second chief, and John Conner, third
chief, send to their grand children, of other
nations, their friendship, and ask of them not
to quarrel and shed blood about the condition
Of the country Let none Of the tribes war
against the Union, and the Great Father who
Is at the head of the Government, but let all of
them stand by the Union. If there should be
any division In any nation and any part of a
tribe attempt to assail and war against the
others, because they are for the preservation Of
the Union, then we, the chiefs of the Delawares,
promise and obligate ourselves to lend the
whole power OF the nation to aid and protect
such tribes as may be invaded. We say to our
Creek friends, and to all other nations that we
will stand and die by the Great Father, who is
now using all his lawful power to preserve the
Union; and we will permit no other nation to
war against the Union with impunity.
