Will the War be of Long Duration


We are encouraged 10 believe not. In
taking as extended and impartial view
Of the field rs possible, and comparing
fact with fact, we are constrained to hope
that the Southern rebellion will be speed
lily put down, and the honor and stability
of the Government fully indicated with
far less bloodshed than has hitherto been
anticipated. What hopes have the Sc
cessionists of ultimately succeeding9 On
what basis of calculation do they predi-
cate a belief that alone they can subvert
the present Government and effect its re-
organization at pleasure. England stands
aloof. France gives no encouragement
of aid. Their munitions of war are far
from plentiful. Money, the bone and sim
ew of war, is attainable with great diff
Guilty, and in sums altogether inadequate
to effect their purpose. Provisions are
becoming scarce generally, and in places
not few, starvation seems inevitable, and
the efectual blockade of harbors and
channels of intercommunication with the
outer world leave no encouragement of
speedy relief Many Of their soldiery
complain Of the inability of the confede-
rate officers, and the long delay in strik-
ing the first blow which they have been
assured would lead them to certain victo-
ry and glory. The leaders themselves
seem to fear the result Of conflict and
study m honorable delay, or one that
shall seem to be such. In the mean time
the Government are concentrating troops
at every available point whore blow
can be struck with the greatest precision
and with the most disastrous effect upon
the head of the rebelious. Munitions of
war, men, money and sympathy are not
wanted on the part Of the Government,
and it will succeed. Let the secessionists
therefore be wise, come back to their al
legiance, restore to the Government
what belongs thereto, so far as
they may be able, and thus prevent the
shedding of fraternal blood-for all this
they will ere long be compelled to do with
out doubt. May their rulers be wise.
Be wise now. Spare the effusion of blood.
Save the Confederate States from COM
pletc bankruptcy, while it is possible and
retreat while retreat they may and not
when they must.

What General Scott Says.

The Chicago Tribune says that Gen.
Scott has declared to Senator Trumbull,
Hon. S. Colfax and others, within week,
that the rebellion would be crushed inside
Of eleven months from the day the rebel
flag was hoisted over Fort Sumpter. He
expects to have the rebels whipped into
obedience to the constitution and the laws
before the first year of Lincoln's term
expires. What General Scott promises
he rarely failsto perform.
To assure Mr.. Colfax, and enable him
from personal knowledge to pacify and
content the eager and impatient people
whose feelings he represented, Gen. Scott
laid before him and fully explained the
plans which he had matured for the cam
paign. Mr.. Colfax, astonished with the
inevitable certainty of the results which
the veteran campaigner demonstrated be-
fore him, confessed, with reverence, his
conviction that the cause of the Union
was safe beyond peradventure or possibil-
ity in the hands Of Gen. Scott, and went
from his presence assured that the people
have only to wait with patience for the
inevitable triumph over treason and re-
bellion which they are so eager TO con-
sun1mate.

night from Fortress Monroe. At the
same time troops from Newport moved
forward to form junction with the reg
ulars from Fortress Monroe, at Little
Bethel, about halfway between Hampton
and Great Bethel.
Owing to q misunderstanding in rela-
lation 10 tho signals, the United States
troops fred upon each other, killing one
and wounding two. The mistake at Lit
tie Bethel being ascertained, the buildings
were fired, and the troops advanced upon
Great Bethel, but our three small pieces
of artillery we're unable to cope with the
heavy rifled cannon of the enemy. The
rebel battery was completely masked
No men could be seen, only the flashes OF
the guns.
There were probably less than 1000
men behind the battery.
After being exposed to the fire of the
rebels for about an hour the troops were
ordered to retreat.
There are probably about rs killed and
100 of the Federal troops wounded.
Lieut.. Butler deserves the greatest
credit for bringing off the killed and
wounded.
Great Indignation is manifested against
Brigadier General Pierce.

ARMY CoNTRAcTs.-W Whilst complaints
are being made in other States, at the
manner in which Contractors for army
supplies are filling their contracts, says
the Grand Rapids Enquirer, it is crafty
ing to bear evidence of the honorable and
satisfactory manner in which the contracts
for the supply ofthe Third Regiment have
been performed. A correspondent of the
Detroit advertiser speaks in the follow
ing just terms of the filling of the cloth
ing contract:
"From conversation with three of the
commissioned officers, we learned with
great satisfaction that the clothing fur
nished by the Hon. LEWIS PORTER, Ex-
Senator from this county, who is the
contractor, comes fully up to the stand
ard required by Government, in point of
material and manufacture. Inspector
Major Lefingwell, gentleman of distinc-
ton connected with the military board of
the State, with other competent assistants,
have been engaged during the entire week
in the arduous labor of inspection, and
they are emphatic in their approval of the
manner Mr.. Porter has fulfilled the con-
tract"
