TRIBUNE's DISPATCH.
WASHINGTON, August 2s.-Mr. Adams,
Minister to England, writes that in the
British mind the independence of the reb-
els is fully admitted as military and po-
litical necessity; that their acknowledgment
by England is but question of time and
prudent courtesy; that Britain is impatient
to get cotton from the South in exchange
for manufactured goods. She is anxious
no to lose the northern markets, and is I'M
willing to part with the hope of breaking
down the Morrill, tariff by the same means
with which she chained the north with the
Walker tariff, and two or three more sue
cesses like that of Bulls Run will entitle
the Shareholders to immediate recognition.

The following is an extract from
letter received 10 Boston, from a Vir-
ginia lady, now residing in Washington:
"Senator JOhnson's friend, -, of
Tennessee, is now stopping with us, his
brother with Mary, They are both so
earnest in the Union cause risking
their lives, property, and everything
earthly that we feel much interested in
them. On his way from Tennessee, -
travelled part Of tho way with Georgian
who had been at the battle of Bulls
Run, and, mistaking him for a Seees-
sionist, talked freely with him. He
says Southornors arc astonishod at the
Northern troops; they fight like tigers;
so steady, so cool. A Louisiana regi
ment, the Chain Gang Regiment,
brought of, to my knowledge but -
men; an Alabama and a Georgia regi-
ment were nearly annihilated. In fact,
he says: Sir, it was a victory on the
part Of our troops, but a dear bought
one. You know they will not allow any
paper or individual TO publish over 3 900
killed and wounded; aud 1 bRotg posi-.
lively it was full 5000, and few more
such Victories would break us up
