Progress Of the War.

The Yankees have taken another step
towards the invasion and subjugation OF
the South by flying precipitately before
one.fourth their number Of Confederate
at the late battle near Leesburg. Anoih.
or and a signal difference between the
manifesto and the performance has been
illustrated.by the rapid flight Of super.
or iorce and Yankee volor, so conspicu-
ously displayed at the Manassas races
again challenges our admiration by th'
pedestrian performances Of the Warriors o
Leesburg.
No one is surprised at this result, forno
one doubts as to the issue whenever tie
two armies meet in any proportion shor
of six 0r eight to one. At Bethel W.
fought them five to one and drove then
back, and now we dispense and scatter
them with one fourth their number, will
inferior artillery, and with no advantage
of position or entertainments.
1t is not necessary to assert that Yal-
KEGS are deficient in courage, to accoun
for these repeated repulses by an inferi' J
force. It is sufficient to say that they arr
fighting in wrong cause and that they
know it, and that the stoutest heart quail
when conscious Of guilt. Even as brave
man, convicted of cheating at a card-table'
cannot bring himself to the point of re
senting a denunciaton therefor, so the
Yankee feels his arm palsied and bis cour
age oozing out the moment he finds him
self confronted by those whom he know
he has injured and oppressed. This wal
will set aside the Napoleonic idea thai
Providence smiles upon the heaviest ar.
tillery, and will revive the fno sentiment
Of the days of chivalry that the wager o.
battle is always decided by the justice Of
the cause.
We can we'll imagine, if these people
have a proper conception Of the disgrace
Of the. performance, how they will feel
over the fact that they have been driven
into the river by one-fourth of their mum
Der, in their eager haste TO escape the
deadly storm Of the Confederate bullets.
The story of the swine that rushed into
the sea, when possessed with the evil spi
rit, as related in holy writ, will suggest it.
self to every one as a performance now re-
peated by subaqueous Yankees, drenched
and drowned in their mad struggles to
escape from the pursuing foe.
How many more defeats it will take to
convince these people that the South can
not be conquered; how many more lives
are to be sacrN6ced, and how many more
millions are to be squandered in the PIE

President and Vice President OF the Con
federate States, as we'll as members OF the
Confederate Congress who are TO take
fheir seats under the permanent oonstitu'
ton of the Conrederacy. Davis and
Stephens have no opposition for the high
positions they now fill and with the ex-
ception here and there Of an inapeasble
croaker the country, with unanimous
voice, declares them to be the right men
for the crisis-nay, more, that JeH DAVIS

people struggling for safety and life, Tor
independence and liberty. lie will rank
in the eyes Of posterity, and on the pages
of history, side by side with Washington
II seems Providehtial too that the hearts
of our people should have united upon a
man for the second Office, who in case OF

high qualities, moral and intellectual, to
take his place and guide tho destinies OF
the Coniederacy.

were not united in favor OF separation

THEY ALL AGREE. The policy which
has controlled our military operations on
the Potomac since the battle Of Manassas
has been the subject of much natural
speculation and some writer's have even
undertaken to penetrate the councils oil
our generals and other military authori-
ties and assign to each prominent person
age his peculiar views. Among these
statements, one which recently appeared
in Charleston contemporary alleged that
there was u serious discrepancy Of opinion
as to our proper course among Generals
Johnston, Beauregard and Smith and
also that Gen. Beauregard, Immediately
after the battle Of Manassas, had applied
to President Davis for leave to advance
and had been peremptorily refused
