Continued Preparation of line Fiunitions

Notwithstanding the immense quantities OF
the munitions Of war prepared for government
at the 7arous .arsenals, the demand is still
active, and the work is continued both day and
night. At the Watertown Arsenal one hln-
dred thousand cartridges are made per day,
besides many other articles, including gun
carriages. &c, &c. Here, also, under Inc
supervision Of al Austrian captain, who
has received six months furlough, new kind
of rocket is manufactured, which, like the
famous Greek fire. Of old, is unquenchable
with water, and which, it is thought will be
of considerable benefit in the future operations
of the aruy.--Nea York Herald.

ii,hed in your paper Of the lOth, who still re-
main in the serrica Of Incoln's despotism, you
number Major F. \. Page, Assistant Adlutant
General, with the rest. This is mistake, no
doubt, as Major Page has been dead more
than twelve months, having died at Fort
Smith, Ark He was as fine Southern mau
as any that lives now, and l can safely say,
from my intimate knowledge Of his sentiments
in regard to the rights OF the South, that ne
would have hailed the separation of the South
from tho North with as great joy as the strong
est spcessiorist 10 be found, and would, ] an
confident have been, from the very first, where
all true virginans should he. cel confident
much injustice to so pure mal.

Our Forces In the Northwest.

Considerable misapprehensioa seems to az
ist in regard to the respective positions Of Lee
and Rosencranz. Contrary to the impression
Of many persons, the headquarters Of the two
generals are seventy-fye miles distant from
each other, Clarksburg being the headquarters
Of Rosencranz, and Lees camp being between
Huttonsvlle and Huntersville, in Poeahontas
county. Rosencranz, though the ranking off.
Ger in Northwestern Virginia, is not the off,
Ger Immediately in command of the forces as
sailing General Lee 1t is understood that
General Reynolds is their commander 1t is
not supposed that any OF the. forces that at.
tackled Floyd on Gauley river, On Tuesday,
were taken from General Reynolds command.
They we're troops that had been stationed at
different points in North.W estern Virginia,
and some three or four newly arrived regi.
ments from Ohio. General Reynolds camp is
at the junction of the Staunton and Parkcrs-
burg, and Of the II uttonsville and HunterSvile
turnpike roads. The other camp of the Yam
kec army is on the Staunton and Parkersburg
turnpike, on Chest Mountain, eight miles east
of Huttonsvile. Seven miles east Of this
camp, on the same road, at the foot Of Cheat
Mountain, in Pocahontas county, on Green
brer river, is the camp Of our General Fl. R.
Jackson. General Lees camp, as already
stated, is on the Huttonsville and HGatcrsVillc
road, eighteen miles above the former place

The intelligence from Cuba. if true, shows
that Spain has directed the Captain General
there, practically to acknowledge the separate
nationality Of the Confederate Republic. Spain
is just such a government as might be expect,
cd most promptly to take such step. Proud
and chiyalrous and high toned, her very weak
ness among the nations makes it the more
incumbent upon her to accede 10 those calls
which Justice endorses, but which prudence
fcrbids. England and France are in condition
10 consult merely their interests OF preJudlces'
Their conceded power protects them from the
imputstion Of fear, ard permits them to be
selfish without shame. Spain, OIL the contrary
is uader obligation to take counsel only OF her
sense Of honor.
The generous course OF Spain will no DOUBT
cnure to her interest in the future relations oi

A HAPPY MIsHAP.-A curious little an
ecdote respecting the Prince of Wales has
caused considerable merriment at Cambridge
during the last few days. 1t is said that in
anticipation of visit from the Prince to
the noble chapel of his college, the chief of
the establishment-of which, for obvious
reasons, we forbear giving the name-di-
rected the verger to give him notice of the
arrival of his Royal Highuess. After wait
ing some hours in a state of fearful sus-
pense, the reverend gentleman sent for the
verger:
9 Has the Prince been announced 2" he
asked.
No, your honor" quoth the verger.
And you are quite sure, verger2A
Hi ham there has been nobody to see
the chapel hOnly a hold gentleman wot as
brought is son hup to college,
A description of the old gentleman and
his son followed, and the master of the COL
lege soon became convinced that they were
no other than General Bruce and his Royal
Highness, who had been quietly and uncer-
enormously inspecting the noble building
