to operate against US, should hostilites actually
take place. In this connection it is interesting to
exhibit the strength Of her fleets in the waters OF
North America and the West Indies, the Gulf of
Mexico and the Pacific Ocean, as their united
force will no doubt operate against US in the event
Of war. With this view we publish the following

Captain Wilkes has broken the charm of

shall command the respect Of the sober second

effect in favor Of our government and our cause

MS GREENHow's INDIGNANT LETTER TO Mr.
SEwAAD.-We are indebted to the Richmond
Whig for the pungent letter which we publisl
to-day Of Mrs. Rose Greenhow to Mr.. Seward,
touching her late imprisonment in her ow1
house In Washington, as q secession emissary
Having been released and sent over into Seces
STA, she doubtless furnished copy Of the lette,
in question to the journal from which it is en-
tractsd. 1t is just such philippe az one would
expect, under the circumstances, from spirited
dashing, active and fearless female politician OF
the South Carolina school of secession malig.
nants. She complains bitterly of the rude
and offensive behavior of her jailors; but
she forgets that nen thus employed are
very seldom remarkable for the 70.
fnements and accomplishments, graoes
and gallantry Of the fashionable circles Of
Washington. She discourses duently; but flip.
PANTY upon the freedom of speech, and upon
her right to exercise il, and upon the cruel
tyranny of her imprisonment; but she forgetsl
that while at large in Washington she was q
dangerous agent Of hostile army besieging our
national capital. Grant all the personal rights
of freedom Of speech and action which M
Greenhow demands, in the midst Of this great
rebellion, and we may as we'll abolish our
armies, and turn over the country to unre-
strained ruffian'sm; for under this system of Ii
berty we should all be at The mercy Of rufaans
and robbers
In those gay secession circles which ruled
the Court and Cabinet Mt our federal city under
&e diluted rose water administration of Mr..
Buchanan, Mrs. Greenhow was bright and
shinisg light. She had no doubt shared with
that brilliant and charming coterie, of which
Mrs. Slidell and Mrs. Gwn were the ruling
spirits, that splendid secession idea of the easy
occupation Of Washington by JEFF. Davis, his
camp, Cabinet Congress and government and
that under this new regime the fascinating cote
RE aforesaid, including Mrs. Greenhow, would
be exalted to higher and an indefinite reign
Of beauty and glory. Mr. Seward, however,
interposed like an evil magician, and with u
wave of his powerful wand destroyed all these
beautiful castles in the clouds. And SO we can
excuse this piquant and pungent letter Of Mrs.
Greenhow. Even the great Napoleon, philoso-
pher as he was, when cooped up at st. Helena
could not refrain from scolding

SCARCITY or BEGGAns.--in spite Of the hard
ness OF the times and the increasing GOODNESS of
tic weather, there is a great scarcity Of beggars
in our streets The pay sent home by soldiers,
the open purses Of our citizens, the pro-
vision made by the Corporation and by So
cieties for the relief Of volunteers families
and tho proyidcntial miianess of the season ac-

benevolent people should see to it that this

How THE WAR PAYS ITs Own EXPENSES
BY the arrival of the steamer Illinois at For.
tress Monroe, we have advices from Port Royal
TO the 18th instant. Affairs there seem in tho
best possible condition. All Of the islands about
Port Royal have been seized and are now held
by The Union troops and the cotton upon these
isandsis being picked by the contrabands, under
the direction of our officers About t,so million
dollars soorth Of cotton has already been Sc
cured; and this sum will almost pay the expenses
Of the expedition. This is the way to make the
war pay for itself Our officers sent upon these
expeditions ought to be instructed to collect
the cotton as soon as our forces are landed, and
ship it Immediately 10 some Northern port. 1t
is wise Napoleoric rule of war to make the
enemy pay the expenses OF the army which
consners him.

Men IN UNIFORM ABOUT THE STRsEis.-There
are . great many discharged and retired sol
diers who glitter about our streets in uniforms
which they have not the slightest right to wear.
Many Of these fellows are as bogus as Peer Funk
watches, and bring discredit upon all genuine
soldiers A Provost Marshal ought to be ap-
pointed for this city, to overhaul these shoulder
strapped gentry and send them to their rcgi-
mcnts if they have any, or compel them to pro-
ducc their f,irloughs Or doY their uniforms.
True soldiers are always modest, and, as these
fellows lack 'modesty, it is very certain that
they are not true soldiers.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1861-12-16

Our GREAT ARAr-Is AEyDoDY MissEp!-
Although New York city has sent thousands Of
soldiers TO the wars our streets seem as crowded
as ever and Broadway is just as brilliantly
throngea as in times Of peace. Except by thu
friends and relatives of the absent soldiers, no
one appears to be missed. This one fact
speaks volumes for the great resources Of tho
North We can send out another half million
men, il necessary, and scarcely miss even them.
TIE Poos ANp THE HcLrpAYs.-The holidays
are now fast approaching, and already the an
nual fairs Tor the poor, tie widows and tho
ornbans are being held oil over the city. Now
IL the time for open purses and reaiN charity.
Many families have been deprived 81 their sup
porters by the war, and il hehoaves those Of us
Who have the means 70 assist these poor per-
sons. Charity is always o duty, but at tht, tina
il is also patriotic duty
