POLITICAL GENERALS

AS TINS is about the only class we hear of now, il
would be well to give what General Raymond, Of
the Times, says:

On the strength Of these facts, we venture to
suggest that the attention of the Virginia auth or

dressed TO the work of fortifyinr the peninsuIs
which marked the progress of Lord CORVALLIS

ly constructed British intrenchments at Y ktown
they and our revolutionary allies had placed about
one hundred heavy guns in position, and were at
last obliged to carry the outworks, with great loss,
oy storming parties. We have understood that the
virginia authorities, in view of the very service on
which Gen. Butler has now entered early this
spring engaged a civil eCgneer-as much charac-
terized by the cautious slowness OF his movements
as by the mature study which he gives to his plans
to prepare defensive works on this Iine We do
not doubt, therefore, that the advancing army if it
really moves along this peninsula, will find its own
progress, as well that of the cooperating vessels
lmpeded by batteries on shore, and well garrisoned
reooubts and other earthworkS, with strong pro-
nles, at every available inland site from Yorktown
to Richmond.
Now, we take the liberty to suggest that to in

expensive an operation for the Object in view
we wo1ld say to the General therefore, if we
might venture to give an opinion on that point,
mat there are more roads leading from Hampton

Richmond on his way to w ashing ton, for the pur-

mat the firing OF the secession pickets upon the

the junction as the federal troops advanced. My
informant stated further, that the Confeder ate
forces would not commence fighting until the in

Lee has determined to allow them to advance inti-
