Editors Dispatch. In your jour-
nal Of yesterday see card copied fIom the
WhiS, from the pen Of General Beauregard
We, who are in the service rs privates and
non commissioned officers, have not MANY
opportunities Of seeing the daily papers, and,
thus keeping on the surface of event, we
thought not Of the wrangling of politicians
but were credulous enough to imagine that
these self-sscrincing patriots, who were filling
lucrative offices, far out of range aud. shear
irg OF the enemy guns" regarded our Gen.
raj as we regard him--the pride OF our army
But reading the card alluded to dispels the
illusion. The best efforts of our Government
should be directed to but one ohiect-the sup
port OF our Generals in the ardusus work be-
fore them. If 1t does this it will receive the
support and confidence of Sll good men. Bnt
let partiality rule the day, and acknowledged
incompetents be crowded into Office, TO the
exclusion OF better men, and it will receive
the condemnation it deserves from every lover
of his country. Let the Government d its
work wholly and unstintingly, and let
Bull Kun and Manassas testify how we will
do ours.
General Johnston is regarded In this army
rs an accomplished soldier, capable OF weav-
Ing web OF strategy which would defy the
combined intellect ofthes old army TO unray.
81, and as chivalrous, high-toned gentle
man. as his conduct on the 2lst Of July viii
testify. But as the representative of the rank
and fie Of this army, say. without fear Of
contradiction. that tsn-ral G. T. BeAure-
politicians beware how tiley charge him with
ought Incompatible with his character a. .

old name, "n gentleman. -

SAIL AND STEAM.-If the old blowhards of
quarter OF century ago could rise from
their graves, they would weep and wall over
the inno> ations which steam has introduced
in the naval profession. A Rear Admiral of
the French Navy, in a late work on the navies
of France, truly says that "the employment Of
steam has done away with much of the hard.
ship of the profession. There is no longer
that continual struggle with the elements.''-
There is, therefore, no longer any necessity
forthe seamanship which that struggle required
and developed, nor that lofty courage and en-
durance which grow out of hardship and
peril. The consequence is that while ships
have become more perfect and powerful ma
chimes, seamen have deteriorated, and become
mere stokers and ferrymen. The South will
suffer no injury from this change, because it
can build navy upon the models of existing
improvements, and man it without requiring
for that purpose thoroughbred sailors, of whom
1t has very few. AT the same time, the facil-
tiles which steam affords an enemy for sud
den descent upon an exposed sea coast viii
require ns to pay more attention to laud bat
teries, and keep up "a strong coast guard

TIE PERILs OF PEAcE.-De Bows No

titled the Perils of Peace The obvious
danger Of an immense Yankee immigration,

at the ballot box, unless such restrictions
are placed upon the exercise of suffrage,
as will prevent them from ever having vote
are painted in letters Of light. We have often
referred to this danger, as one which, if not
provided against in time, will render all the
blood and treasure expended in the war en-
tirely profitless. The same writer also con-
tends that, whilst our present foreign popu-
lation, which has proved so gallant and faith
full in the Southern cause, should retain the
possession OF every right which they now
have, the same privilege should not be con-
ferred upon future emigrapts to this x ,.try
He also expresses the opinion that no Euro
pean, and we may add, Northern citizen, now
residing in the South, unless it be one who is
still an alien in feeling, will condemn feel
ing which does not deprive Northerners or
foreigners now visiting here, of any righ.
which they possess, but only proposes to ex
clude hereafter those who are now endeavor-
ing to deprive every Southern man of his lib
critics.

GENERAL McCLELLAN.-The late speech Of
General Nc Clellan, on accepting sword pre-
sented to him by Philadelphians contains one
undoubted fact. He says he has not yet done
anything to merit such an honor. This is more
modest than his boasting proclamation that he
had put an end to Secession in Western Vir-
ginia, and his more recent pronunciamento
from Washington" Soldiers, we have seen
our last defeat. No more defeats; no more
retreats You stand by me, and I'll stand by
you'-which had al immediate commentary
in the fastest time ever made by the Yankees
themselves, in that wonderful toot-race at Lew
insville, and lately in the Overwhelming rout
at Leesburg. 1t is also more truthful than
his report of the kiAed and wounded at Rich
Mountain. And if he has done nothing to
merit sword, pray, what has he accom-
plished, to be made Lieutenant General? 1t
could be said at least Of old Scott that he had
enjoyed great reputation, but Mcclellan is
absolutely an unknown man. Nothing out
small success, achieved by the aid of .re-
mendous odds, over few hundred Virgini.ns,
In Western Virginia, has given him that
prestige with the infatuated Yankee nation
which has induced them to place him over The
head Of old officers of their service, Of r1en
like Wool, who, il he had sword pre-.
sented to him, could not say, without palpable
aliectation of modesty, that he had never done
anything to deserve such a tribute The Lin
coin Government, as well as the Northern mob
of which it is the representative and the tool, is
as unjust to it's friends, when it can make no
further use of them, as it is to its enemies.
When Mcclellan says he has done nothing
yet to deserve sword, he utters u truth,
which is illustrated by townsville and Lees
burg; when he intimates that he will here
after, we must be prepared for doubling whe-
ther man who, on his own showing, has
never yet done anything worth special honor,
can accomplish more than General Scott and
the combined military talent of the United
States Army have been able to achieve.

TuE LADIES' HoxsE.-Col. Harris, of the
Ohio Field Notes, an acknowledged auihortyo on
the subject, writes as follows in regard to the
best kind of a horse for lady, his manage
'uent etc.: =
The bride Of q lady's horse sh. uld be a.
single rein cnrb-never q snaffis to be pulled
upon-requiring the strength of a thread only
to guide and direct the animal, and dra wn
only when the horse is req uired to be stopped;
at all times TO be kept slightly in hand, or be
permitted to lie gently on the arched neck of
the beautiful creature, permitting him 10 look
abroad upon things, and see the road he is
travelling; starting with a bound into q
graceful canter at the leaning forward of the
rider without the use of the whip or other in
centive.
We had supposed double bride was pre-.
ferable-that is, curb and snahle, either Of
which cc uld be used as occasion required -
The majority of English ladies use such
bride. s5 q.
