CoUardly COlonels.

A Washington correspondent OF the
New York Tribune, in speaking of the
retreat and panic after the battle OF Ma
nassas, says:
"a Massachusetts, Colonel was met in
the retreat three miles ahead of his regi-
ment, which he assured an inquirer was
cut to pieces. No remonstrances availed
to induce him TO turn back, or to wait for
his men. Subsequently he excused him,
self by saying that he received sun
stroke, the effects of which Gid not seem,
however, to have diminished his pace to-
ward Washington. a Wisconsin Colonel
behaved but little better. r.
The Wisconsin Colonel who ran three
miles ahead Of his troops, is the cowardly
PECK, Of the Second Regiment from this
State. 1t is now said he has resigned bis
post. We fear more OF our political Col
onels will prove no better when they como

Colonel in August, 1859, and served with

brought before the public, by his refusal
to parade his regiment on the occasion of
the reception of the Prince of Wales.

Various are the causes given for the
defeat of our army, and its rapid retreat
from Bulls Run to Arlington Heights, a
distance OF twenty-five or thirty miles
some ascribing it to the teamsters cutting
the traces of the artillery horses, and 9th
ers to the interference of Republican
members of Congress with the officers in
command The latter is the more likely
of the two, but the New York Horald
gives the most plausible reason. Il says
it has been a Waterloo defeat. But tie
defeat is in q great measure due to other
than accidental causes. The troops were
not Offered as they ought to have been.
Mere politicians held important commands,
for which they were DO more fit than so
many tailors and bricklayers. This could
not prove otherwise than disastrous to an
army fighting against good troops, well
officered. But the chief cause was the
premature bounding on of Gen. ScoTT BY
tie Republican press of New York, and
by the fanatical school of Republican pol
iticians. Gen. ScoTr was abused through
all the moods and lenses because he was
not fast enough, and because he would not
send his army at once against the rebels
before it was properly ofiicered and Or
ganized. There was no. sufficient prepa-
ration for SO great an undertaking; and it
is now known that i. was against his judg-
ment Gen. Scorr permitted the army to
advance, and only when he was actually
ordered to do so by the government.
