The Strength Of Manassas.


To attack the Confederate forces ut Manas-
sas with vast army Of even the best troops in
the world, would be q mighty undertaking.
The Richmond papers boast, that, IN that
stronghold, hundred men car successfully
resist and repel q Thousand. Perhaps they
could if the attack were as rash aud preelpltate
az some Of our Eastern civilians evidently
think that it ought to be. The greatest
Southern Genurals and civil engineers selected
Manassas as the strongest posltion by nature
In Virginia, and sRch 1t undoubtedly Was.
For six months they have, with all possible
RESOURCES at their command, been adding to
its natural st, ,ergth By oil the modes OF tortl-
ficaticn known to military science. From the
two thousand heavy cannon, many Of them of
moustrous eize, seized by the Confederate in
The Goeport Navy Yard, and from the many
hundreds Of columbiads and guns OF III cali
bres manufactured at the TTedegar Works in
Richmond, they have received just as many
and lust such pieces of artillery as they could
| plant to advantage. If they wanted fifteen
! hundred pieces of heavy artillery to be placed
| in hundred batteries, they have have bad
them, and placed them according to taeal
pleasure At several points Of necessary ap'
proach to their main positions, they have
placed mines Of guppowder to be sprung al
any moment, and carry horrible slaug ghte1
| among their assaiIants. These are facts, and
although thoughtless editors, writing to ere
ate sensation, may ignore them, the coh
mani1era of our armies will scarcely do So:
We have confidence, strong confidence that
in spite Of all obstacles, however tfemend01s

The attack Of Gen. Floyd upon the Fed

! Of The Gauley river, and that Rosecrans

Both the charge and the inference is Ut

Judge Higgins, and if elected 10 the Con-
yention, he pledges himself to use all his
influence and power to have it done away

stltuted. This is one of several important
: judicial reforms which he will advocate in
the Convention, if made delegate. The
allegation made against him is as false asst
is mean, and the paper making it knew
thatit was false; but it was done to preju-
dice tue minds Of voters and defeat his
election.
