THE HATrEEAs AFFAIR
7Tho New York World, Of the 7th inst E,
seems to regard the Hatteras capture as a
rather poor job: -t
The sharp criticisms on General Butler and
lommodore Stringham in the lews ars.rs,
for not completing their work on the North
carolina coast, and Capturing Beaufort and
the other iniets, is having its effect here
Successful as ii appeared at first sight, there
are those who do not seruple to declare tha [
the whole WAS a blnnder, and showed AN en- =
tire want OF purpose. when it might have
been made the most telling blow of the war
HAD the Carolina and Georgia coasts been at
tackled two months ago, there would never
nave been IA concentration OF Con fedora to
troops in Virginia, we would not have lost
the battle of Manassas, and the Capital to-
day would not be beleagured by the Con tedn-
rate armies. We Will probably learn how to
do things properly by aud by.
RECRUITING AT HARRISBURG
The Harrisburg Patriot, of last SATURDAY,
says:
Recruiting in our city is a dull and slow
business. In some OF the Offices scarcely one
man day is picked mp" If every i've reei-
ments now having offices opened for enlisting
recruits would join IL forming one regiment

GREAT BUSINESS.
Some excitement was caused on one Of the
streets OF Baltimore last Saturday, by "a Pc
HceInan attempting to remove IL Cr:iyat of OBJ
roNioUs colors from the person OF u Young
man named james Carey, who successfully
resisted him. The same evening two little
daughters of Charlie. II. Myers Esq, lner-
chant, We're arrested on the street near their
IA Tiers door, and carried To the station hous"
because some portion of their dress bore HE
combination OF the prohibited colors.
..st GAMBLING HOUSE ARRESTS.
We copy the following from the Washing
ton Star of Saturday evening
Yesterday afternoon the second Ward was
considerably excited by rumors OF important
arrests Made in connection with the opera
tons going on TO recover money lost by a pay
master in the navy, who had been :irrcs ied -

The Washington correspondent Of the Balti-
more Sun gives some fur her particulars
The closing of the Roman temple OF Ianus
was not much more novel than the sudden
shutting up, one and ali, of the sporting es-
adjustments, faro banks, &c, OF this city,
on Friday evening last. 1t seems that the
Provost Marshal on that day arrested DR..
Hayden and his partner, proprietors of an up
town concern, where Paymaster Gallaher, Of
the Navy, ii is alleged, had lost Il very large
amount of Government money at n game of
roulette. 1t is also stated that very consid-
cradle sum was lost at the same game at q
more pretentious estabi shment hard by
whose manager has gone North.
Thus far it is ascertained that the alleged
dedication of Purser Gallaher as appearing
at the Fourth Auditors office, is rising one
hundred thousand dollars, (which figure ii is
stated, Will be greatly enlarged. But it is
possible that vouchers for expenditures on
naval account may be produced to diminish
the sum rather than TO increase 1t. Ii SO, the

AT this many ask if the Northern States of
America conquer the Southern will then. an

later will they not come again into collision

this, 1t seems either that slavery must be
broken down, radically and immetiiately or
there must be introduced into the United
