The general situation OF affsirs remains sbOst
the same as last week at this time with the
exec epiion that our forces near HarpeF's Ferry
have made an advance movement to cross the
Potomac. There has been good deal OF ae.
tivity in the army and navy departments, and
several skirmishes have taken place. but no
serious battle has yet been fought. The ont.

Spain in ST. Domingo. and Of the maritime
powers of Europe in Mexico Before this war
we we're in no condition to contend with q
power like Great Britain. When the war end,
we shall be able 10 hold our own not only
against Eosland, but against any combination
of foreign powers. We shall have a first
army and a 6rst.class navy, ample resources
and thorough aud complete military and ma
val organization.
But the chief advantage which the war will
confer upon the country will be the diversion Of
at least a part of the national intellect and en-.
ergy from the mere pursuit of gain, and the
elevation of q substantial section ofour people
to n.bler and higher aims. 1t can net but
leave behind it a pretty general conviction
that there really is something in this world bet
