most peculiar phenomenon, whica we have
ever seen. On either side Of the moon,

and hues Of the rainbow Two similar
'treaks Of lght passed entirely through
the circle, crossing the moon in the CEN

The Tempest of War.

Around Cd Point Comfort the fields look
as they do in Eastern Europe in the track
of the Russian armies--utterly swept clean
of fences, crops and sometimes trees, as if
a flock of desOlation locusts had flown over.
The track now Of the grand army in Vir-
ginia is a trail of observation-disclosures de-
strOyed, houses abandoned, crops consumed.
Scarcely human being not connected with
the army appears. The tremendous words
of the old Roman historian come up to
mind " They make solitude and call it
peace!' Not all of this, of course, is due
to our troops. The secessonists began by
driving out and prosecuting the Union men,
and now 'lete, in their turn, flee. The Bit
terests OF al hatreds appears to be, that of

The State which has lived on the basest
traffic that ever disgraced humanity, now,
for the sake of no interests OF her own, must
see her bueatiful fields utterly burned and de-
vastated by the storm of war. This fearful
contest has only begun. 1t will grow more
bloody and devastating. We believe every
county in the richest portion of the State
will be utterly trampled and wasted. We
expect to hear of towns burned, and miles
of rich forests consumed-perhaps by the
citizens themselves, in their desperation.

Pennsylvania Generals.

Special despatch to the Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON, July 25-S P. NJ.
Gen. Mccall, the newly appointed Ma.
jor General of the Pennsylvania three years
volun teers, (appointed by Gov. Curtin has
arrived here with the first instalment of the
new levy, and more are to come speedily.
Gen. Mccall is graduate at West Point,
was former officer in the regular army,
and won three blevets for valor in the Mex
lean war, besides being personal tavOrito
with Gen. Taylor. 1t is to be hoped we
shall suffer no disappointment in his case
such as is now being intensified in the case
of General Patterson. This officer (Patter.
sony has actually sent home, as it appears
here, several regiments of three months
men from Pennsylvania and Indiana, who
offered to serve ten days longer and until
Banks might take command. The demor-
alization of his splendid corps is such as to
require all the administrative ability of
General Banks to repair damages. The
feeling against General Patterson here, in
Philadelphia and among his own troops is
very strong. Gen. Banks cannot take COM
mand in that quarter moment too soon.
We have no doubt, here, that Gen. John
seon has gone back to Winchester with bis
column, hoping to find Pattersons column
so demoralized as to fall an easy enemy, and
leave him in possession, once more, of the
positions of the upper Potomac.
He will find, in General Banks, policy
quite unlike that to which be has been &C.
custOmed.
-Four regiments have arrived here to-day,
three from Pennsylvania and one from New
York, the latter being one of the so called
Sickles Brigade. We hear of numerous
other regiments on the way here. All the
former interest of our people is beginning
to be manifested over the arrival of fresh
troops. We need them all, and they were
never more heartily welcomed.

The Missouri correspondent OF the New
York Times writes
One of the principal features OF the march
are General Lyon and his German body
guard. The latter is composed of ten ath-
!etic St. Louis butchers, each mounted on
a powerful! horse and armed with heavy
cavalry sword and pair of navy revolvers;
each wears light hat, turned up on the left
side, aud decorated with white ostrich
plume. Almost any time General Lyon,
accompanied by half dozen OF these say
age looking fellows, may be seen squirting
along the liac, or a small squad OF them, or
singly galloping tierccly to the front or rear
or straight out into TIE open country. III
the General goes into house half dozen
OF them will be seen in front standing like
iron statues at the brides of their horses
if he scOurs along in advance OF the train,
the clanking of their long sabers is heard
beside him-stop where he will, there may
be always seen IA stold squad of horsemen
awaiting patiently his movement. They
are fearless riders-jump fences on dead
run, leap bitches, gallop down st:ep de-
scents, and, in fact, never ride less fast than
their horses can run, unless compelled by
some urgent necessity. Independent of their
duty as bOdy-guards they act as messen
gers, scouts, &C., and in consequence, have
plenty to do. They are commanded by a
Lieutenant ; and from their appearance
and daring horsemanship will, if the occa-
sion demands, whip dozen times their
weight in chivalry.

Above you have all the facts, which, |
have reason to believe, are by this time be-
fore the English Government. The docu
ment from which l make this extract is said
to be almost perfect copy of the Admi-
rails official report, the nature of which is
as fully understood in America and British
circles in Havana, as we know the IRE
pressible tone of hostility towards our coun
try which Britons give utterance to. 1t is
right to say that, in order to make the ad.
miral's statement brief, have not followed
his exact and careful style.
There is some news here, but not much.
Billy Wilson's Zouaves are becoming accli
mated to Florida, and have only had three
desperate rows since they arrived. There
was nobody hurt" however. Two or
three hours of each day find them drilling
on the Island, which they have explored
" from the centre all round to the sea-" l
am told, but cannot vOuch for the story,
that three or four of them few evenings
since, sent petition 10 Col. Brown, asking
leave TO reconnOtre in the Warrington
Navy Yard" Suicidal as the proposition
appears on its face, it is not unlikely to
have emanated from the brave Zoo Zoos,
as they are very fond OF calling themselves.
They have galIows erected and hang in
effigy few prominent secessionists every
evening. Poor Bragg and JEFF Davis are
sent down the trap as regularly as the night
falls [ believe there will be a court martial
convened here, for the trial of some unruly
fellows, in few days, but the rules of the
service will not permit me to send you any
particulars OF such matters.
The British feet here is to be increased
by the Mercy Adriadne, Challenger, Rnal-
do, and Driver, and some thirteen gun
boats. There will then be over thirty-fve
vessels, manned by some 3,40O men, under
the command of our friend, Admiral NJ ilne.

The LeXislature.

The Senate, ON Saturday, laid on the table

bilities of the State, in which he recommends

por ton. The bill concerning the Covington

garded as a menace or threat to Virginia !;
third, authorizing the Governor, in order to

All the Foreign Appointments from the
Free States.

The present Admins tration is acting lite
rally upon the maxim, ''To the victors belong
the spoils.'' In the late purely sectional con-
test, the -slaveholding section has been
the victor, and the spoils of battle have been
awarded to it with a sectional exclusiveness
that satisfies even the New York Tribune. As
honest men know no party where their coun-
try is concerned, so dishonest men know no
country where their party is involved. ABRA-
HAN admits none to his bosom but the faithful
Of the free States. He ignores alike the par
ties formerly known in the South as Demo-
Gratis and Wings, permitting neither of them
TO have so much as a crumb from his imperial
table. The Washington correspondent of the
New York Express says:

OPPOSITION LINE PoR MT. VBRSoS.-Our
brethren from the North now hunting Office
in Washington have created great astonish-
ment by the wonderful exercise OF their legs.
Although Washington Is justly styled the
''city of magnificent distances IT Is too small
to call into play the full use of their powers
With carpet bag in hand, they walk to the
Capitol, Presidents House, Georgetown and
Mt. Vernon. They have walked all the hacks
and omnibusses down in Washing ton and are
now trying their legs against the Mt. Vernon
steamer line. They will doubtless give up
their last undertaking as it will be seen by the
following notice that it involves loss OF shoe
leather without any pecunary gain
ssNote-All persons visiting Mount Vernon
by the land route will be required to pay the
same amount as entrance fee that Is charged
those going by water, viz: 20 cents
The publication of this notice in view OF
the above fac will readily be seen is clearly
in self-defence, and with this advantage In
their favor, the steamer will not be run OFF by
the overland foot line whilst the charges are
the same.--1ler (Va) Sentinel.
