The panic which seized Gen. McDoWelps
army on Sunday night, brings to mind the
still more frightfu1 panic which seized upon
the rear guard and reserves Of the French
army at SoNerino. After the victory had
been Won, and while the Austrians werei in
full retreat, body Of French horsemen gal
loped down to the rear to deliver an order
or to bring the news to their comrades.
Some one seeing them coming exclaimed
"the Austrians; the Austrians :are upon
us" Instantly terrific flight commenced,
old and grizzly Zouayes mounted artillery
horses, cut them loose and galloped off.
In the space Of few seconds some
forty thousand men, infantry, cavalry, ar
1illery, baggage trains, ambulances, strag-
4lers, we're rushing and roaring down the
road to Mantua, knocking each other down,
trnmp1ing the dead and dying under their
feet, and hundreds falling exhausted and

r rOT 50 BAD AS REPORTED.
IL ~


The first reports Of the battle at Manas-
sas made our defeat far worse than it actu-
ally was. Every subsequent dispatch re-
duced the amount Of injury the National
troops received. The loss Of life was less,
the number Of cannon left behind was
fewer than the earlier rumors had them.
Nor was the panic so bad, nor the eonfd-
sion eo great as first represented.
When the whole truth becomes known,
it will be found, that VIC have suffered
much less than even the most favorable
dispatches published this morning, repre-.
sent. What last evening was sadly be-
lieyed to be an utter rout, which might re-
suit in the occupation Of Washington by
the rebels, will prove to have been merely
check to the advance movement Of the
Grand Army, delaying the capture o1
Richmond for few weeks at far
thcst. The few pieces Of artillery
lest, will quickly be replaced by the Vul-
cans Of the North. The workshops Of the
Union States are turning out an incalcula'
bic quantity Of warlike material every
week. More is being done now in day
towards equipping the army, than coult
be accomplished last May, in week. Tht
wound our side has received, is only {
scratch which will heal over in an incredi
BILE short space of time. The place in tn
ranks, of every brave fellow who fell a
Bulls Run, will soon be filled by tcl
equally as brave men, who will rally III
| der the starry banner to ayenge his fal
and brdise the secession serpent's head be
| reath their heels.

COURAGE, UNION MEN: :

Let no loyal man be discouraged by the
reverse sustained by the National troops
ct Bulls Run. 1t requires defeat or tive
TO warm up The blood of the Mortimer
and put them in proper fighting mood.
Like the great Antaeas, who, when thrown
to the ground, gathered strength from the
contact with mother earth and arose re-
freshed and stronger than before, to renew
the contest, SO Of the Sons ef Liberty
the loss Of this battle will only nerve
them to greater efforts. Tic great
Northern hive will send forth its legions
in numbers like the sands Of the sea shore.
SmartiDg under the late defeat every SOL
Jier will bum with desire to ayengc it.
A stream Of regiments will flow into
Washington and pour across "Long
Bridge" and ere long the forward move
ment will recommence to progress south
ward with irresistible force, until the last
rebel in arms is subdued.
The liberties Of this Nation we're not
achieved by one battle, nor can they be lost
by one battle, however disastrous. The
defeat which Washington's army suffered
at Long Island was relatively far more
disastrous and discouraging than the
reverse sustained by the Nationa
troops at Manassas. Yet Washington
and his brave Continentals retrieV
ed that gloomy day at Yorktown
where the red-coat and tory were t1tl6r)J
annibi1ated, and the Etar-spangled banne1
waved in triumph over the tallen foe. Il
will it be in this struggle. The crack .
the rebel slavc-driver's whip will cause nj

overcome the whole moral, physical an'
material strength Of twenty millions c
free people, before they consummate th
destruction Of the Union.

THE FUTURE.

Whatever may have been the extent OF
the disaster to Gen. McDowells army On
Sunday night, and it could not seemingly
have BEEN worse, The consequences will be
only mightier uprising Of the people IN
behalf Of their beloved Union and Consti-
tuition, a firmer resolve to conquer the |
traitors, more gigantic preparation and
more nervous energy for the work to be |
accomplished. For every soldier driven
back from Manassas to the Potomac, there
are twenty who will march to contest
again the ground which has been lost
Mortifcaton may we'll mingle With our
so1row for the dead and wounded, but d<s-
ra;y ntrer. The Roundheads were beaten
On almost every field for two years until
the war produced Cromwell and his Iron
tides. Long Island and Bunker FILLS dear
to every American heart, were British VIC
tories. Yet the great triumph Of our fore
fathers dates from those defeats. So will
it be now. The reverse Of QUE army, be it
more OF less fatal, will prove the seed Of
the triumph which is sure to come. If
this is 10 be war Of years instead OF
months, so let it be. Ifit calls for armies
of half million instead Of one-tenth that
number, they are to be had for the asking.
Already we have the evidence that such is
