The English Fleet I'm the Gulf.

Perhaps everybody does not know what a
formidable feet of British ships of war are
now occupying our Gulf waters-lying right
within striking distance of Lincoln's block
aders whom they are watching with sleepless
vigilance, and ''evident anxiety to pick a
quarrel with on this blockade question" We
have good authority for stating that the Brit
ish feet of the Gulf, under Admiral Milne,
numbers no less than thirty-ive men of war,
each carrying heavy metal and equipped on a
war footing We know, of course, that this
armada is not here to operate against the
Confederacy. We know this without the
avowal of the British government, aud every
other authority, that its object is to oversee
and investigate the doings of LiDcoln's block
aders.
Being opposed to the operations of our enc
mics, the British feet is necessarily in quasi,
but as yet Inactive, alliance with us. 1t is in
our waters as a naval "corps of observation"
and in force which gives it power at any time
to become "a corps of operation" Here in
our waters it will stay, awaitin ga possible,
perhaps probable, moment of action when the
British government may deem it necessary
to raise the blockade. Should the war not be
sooner concluded, we may expect that during
the latter part of next fall Great Britain. and
perhaps France, will offer to mediate. If the
infatuated North rejects propositions, we may
expect to hear from the British fleet of the
Gulf. The way it will run off the Lincolnite
ships. and open our ports, will be caution
to tyrants.
The tone of Admiral Mines report to the
British Government, the substance of which
We have published, indicates more fully than
anything has done heretofore. the position of
Great Britain with regard to the blockade.

THE DEADLY RIFLE.-The returns of 'kill-
ed and wounded" at the battle of Bull Run
are necessarily imperfect, but enough have
been received to show that the losses among
officers, especially commissioned" ones, are
much larger in proportion to their number,
than those amongst privates. The killed are
2 Colonies, l Lieutenant Colonel, Majors
l6 Captains, and Lieutenants; and the
wounded, 2 Acting Major Generals. Colo
nels, Lieutenant Colonel, Majors, l6 Cap
tains, and 33 Lieutenants. The casualties
among captains are particularly noticeable
Making every allowance for the extra expo
sure of officers on horseback and those on foot
in front, or at the sides of their companions,
there is still no doubt that large number of
the killed and disabled on that fatal day,
were singled out and shot by expert marks
men, who were enabled to take deliberate
aim from rifle pits or behind trees. The dis
lance between the hostile forces was repeat
eddy small enough to permit the picking off
of individuals with perfect certainty by any
person moderately skilled in the use of the
rife. What loss was sustained among the
officers of the enemy is not kno Rn; but, as
many thousands of the United States forces
engaged whre also ARMED with rifles, it may
fairly be supposed that the sharp-shooters in
our ranks used these weapons with deadly
effects upon the wearers of shoulder straps
and swords wherever they could be seen.-

TIE BOWIE KEIFE.-An officer in the Con-
fcderate service writing to US says: THE
Yankees are badly frightened. They say
they had us badly whipped several times at
Manassas, but that our boys were such fools
they did MT know it. They give up that the
charges our men made with their Bowie
Knives were the most awful and appalling
events of the day, and no soldiers on earth
could stand before them. One Maine man
says Louisiana Zouave cut his arm nearly
of at the shoulder. while he was on his knees
begging for mercy. He says he does MT think
the ZouaVe knew what he was about, so fu-
rious and terrible was the temper of that he
roie hour. The Bowie Knife is now the king
of weapons. The Tennessee Regiments should
be supplied Immediately, particularly Hat
rows. who have no bayonets. Sharpe 4
Hamilton, of your city, make an excellent
article, and very cheap" We commend the
subject to the attention of our military au-
thorities.

A Tack In the Northern Shoe

The n. Y. Herald says the large hotels of
that city are nearly empty. The proprietors
are unable to pay their rents, and they are
losing considerable sums every week by keep
ing them open. In previous summers all
these houses were crowded with fashionable
tourists, especially Southerners; but now. how
great the changel The same paper also says:
"Jef. Davis has played havoc with the fash
ionable watering places. Poperty and des-
titution are described as reigning there su-
preme. AT Sharon, which was last year so
crowded that numbers could not get accom-
mediation, there are not as many visitors as
would pay the servants wages. Even the
old equity and rheumatic habdtges, who have
never before been known to miss season,
are absent" Newport, Saratoga, Cape May
and Nahant present the same vacuous and
dreary aspect. The large barracks of hotels
which fashionable caprice has helped to build
no are full only of the echoes made by few
unemployed walters. 1t has been stated that
the cottages at Newport are almost all occu-
pied; but, the fact of their being go does not
help the hotels. They are occupied by fam
les that either own them or that find an
economy in hiring them for the season, thus
reducing the expense of their costly town es-
Establishments.
Notwithstanding the efforts made by the
hotel proprietors to put the best face on
things, it is evident that there will be grand
smash up this season at what are called the
first class watering places. The expenses of
the large hotels are frightful, and one season
like the present is sufficient to absorb all the
profits of past years. Between the period
cal recurrence of commercial panics and the
distress caused by the war, this class of prop
erty gin soon cease to have any value"

Cannot our Banks arrange in some way
to aid this Road, so that it can at least be
completed to the Tennessee River? This
road has become latterly, q necessity mill
itary necessity. 1t is the only road, lying
within our own borders, that will give us an
open communication with the Mississippi
River, and thereby enable US to concentrate
any number of troops at any given point
with rapidity and certainty. We own no
stock in this Road, never expect to own any
are not interested to the extent of a single
farthing in it in any way, either directly or
Indirectly, but as one Of the padpLs, and there
fore interested in everything that can tend to
our common security and safety, We say. this
enterprise should be carried out, and that
speedily. We have talked 10 many of our
most influential and clear headed citizens on
this subject, and we have heard but one re-
mark. 1.-THE Nashville and North Western
Railroad should be completed" 1t is no
longer matter of dollars and cents, it Is a
question of life and death, as it may be-
Even though it should only reach the Ten
nessee River, we will have placed ourselves
in a position of successful defense. We will
have an outlet and an inlet not liable to
be discrranged by the operations of the enc
my, particularly since this Road is to be con-
nected with The n. and G. r r.
We do not know what securities the n. and
N. W. z. 3 can give, for we have never con-
suited with its officers and managers on that
subject, but We have no doub, they have Sc
curities in the shape of State Bonds, or it may
be of other Bonds, which would justify our
Banks in extending aud to the enterprise.
1t Is no longer special matter of interest
to the Directors of the Road. 1t Is no longer
. question of dividends, but 1t Ia matter of
direct interest to every citizen here, to know
how long this Road shall remain in q state of
incompletion.
1t is a shame, that while we do not know
at what moment Mr.. Lincoln's troops NAV
assail us, we are supinely Indifferent to the
means Of successfully meeting the invasion.
If our Banks could get from the and N.
". r. r. satisfactory sureties, we do not see
how they could refuse to aid the enterprise
They would accomplish at all events, what
Banks rarely do-a general acknowledge
ment from the public Of their profound graf
itude, and we sincerely hope they viii do this
at once. CITIZEN.

PALNERsToN Shows HIS HAND.-There Is
Lordship of the British Treasury vacant
by the resignation of Mr.. Bagwell, an Irish
member, who resigned because he was dis
satisfied with the conduct of the Palmerston
Cabinet In multiplying the postal contract with
the Galway and American Steamboat Com
pany. To whom, of all men in the House of
Commons, has Lord Palmerston offered this
Office, worth $4,000 yearf To noEe but
Mr.. Gregory, the parliamentary champion
and mouth-piece of "the so-called Southern
Confederacy." Mr.. Gregory has refused the
office, probably from conviction that the
county of Galway would not re-elect him.
But Lord PaImerston's having offered to
make this person member OF the British
Government exposes his own Southern pro-
clivities, If 1t does nothing else. His conduct
Is significant and suggestive. 1t shows his
hand with the RnaVs in it as principal

TIE EsENY's Loss.-It is impossible, says
the Hartford Tines. to get correct list of the
killed and wounded-and we refrain from
publishing the imperfect and uncertain lists
which appear in some of the papers. Our loss
and casualties among officers seems to have
been disproportionately large. 1t is known
that IS, 900 men marched to the battle, and
that several regiments joined his army on the
way. The number of the same army now &C.
cordirg to the accounts from Washington,
seems to be 40 900. This would leave Is, 900
TO &c, 900 unaccounted for.

fred, it is known, is quietly making a tour in
Canada. A pretty good anecdote is told Of
him:
"The Doctor" famous jockey, who had
the contract to furnish thirty horses for the
suit of the Prince of Wales throughout the
tour at eight dollars each per day, drove
Prince Alfred to the Falls of Montmorenci.
The DR." remarked to Alfred: II drove the

Prince. Eyes, and b. R. Fl. gave me this
gold watch" You are lucky fellow"
replied Prince Alfred, "that is more than he
ever did for me-" The "Dr" subsidized.
