Topography of the Seat of War.

The Washington correspondent of the New
York Post thus describes the topography be-
tween the Potomac River and Manassas Gap
junction, which seems destined to become the
theatre Of important military events
" From the Chain Bridge, which is three
miles above Georgetown, to Alexandria, dis
lance of about ten miles-there is a continuous
chain Of hills half mile to mile and half
back from the Potomac Entertainments are
thrown up quite distance north Of Georgetown
across the river, and 80 at different points be-
low to Alexandria. The Chain Bridge, Aque-
duct, and especially the Long Bridge are very
strongly guarded, and every prominent hill is,
or 8 Don will be extended.
Arlington flights are right opposite George
| town, nearly two miles back from the river.
Reaches Spring, which is frequently spoken of
| is about two miles distant, southwest of the
Long Bridge, little off from the road to Fair
fax Court House. Arlington House is about
five miles north or northeast of Alexandria.
Falls Church is a little northern village SIX
miles straight west of Georgetown. Bailey's
Cross Roads is five miles due west of this Long
Bridge, and the road from the bridge, which
leads directly past Bailey's, is the road to
Fairfax Court House. The last named place
is eighteen miles from Washington and four
teen from Alexandria. This was the scene Of
Lieutenant Tompkins exploit last Friday NOR
ming and lie was then about thirteen miles
distant from the main body Of the rebel regi-

From the Potomac to the heights, west, the
ascent is somewhat abrupt; but from the
heights westward it is very gradual. Atleast
ten miles of the Loudon and Hampshire Rail.

Alexandria road is none of it in our possession
Our troops tore up the track to Springfield
station, nine miles distant from Alexandria
Beyond this point the road is in good condition,
and it is reported that the trains occasionally
even run from the junction as far as Springfield
station

Baltimore.

The Mob City evidently needs more punish
ing. The late accounts again place her in
very questionable attitude. The hoois and
horns of Secession are every day sticking out
more and more palpably to view. All the
Union members Of the city police have been re-
moved, or in some way got rid of by the
plotting traitors that are suffered to remain
and rule there unhuns. Since the withdrawal
of the chief part of our forces from the city,
these yet unhumbled traitors have grown as
tonishingly impudent and almost daily insult
the troops yet stationed in the vicinity. Near
ly or quite all the Union Flags that, after their
fright and submission, were raised in every part
of the city, have, it is said, been covertly re,
moved while Marshal Kane has been heard to
boast that the authorities at Washington dare
not now arrest him, as in case of such an at
tempt. he would raise secession force in the
city and vicinity which would drive every
Union man, troops and all, from the place.
There is an old storm of wrath laid by in
store for Baltimore, and let her beware how
much farther she ventures in the course her con-
duct is now indicating, lest no consideration OF
our abused forbearance and mercy will be suf6-
cient to prevent it from bursting in fury and
dcsolation on her devoted head.
GONE WITH OUR TEARS AND BLESSINGS
CAPITAL GUARDS, whose orderly conduct during
the whole of the five or six weeks they have
been drilling in this village has commanded
such universal respect, left Montpelier for their
general rendezvous at Burlington, in an extra
train at about o'clock this morning The
depot was crowded with the relatives, personal
friends, and sympathizers of the soldiers, and
the parting scene among them was as touching
as the heartfelt and prolonged cheers which fol-
lowed them, as the train moved off, were signif-
cant and animating. This is very unusually
stalwart and powerful company of citizen SOL
diery, as is sufficiently shown in their average
weight of one hundred and sixty pounds-an
average nearly ten pounds greater than is found
recorded in the annals of the general run in
American Military companies in this country.

For our part we had hoped TO see the De

crush out the little clique OF traitors
throughout the State who fought against
Douglas and are now found arrayed
against the government, at a time when
opposition is only to aid rebellion, and
facilitate the destruction of the Union.
