THE LESSON.

The defeat of the National Army at Bulls

can see that it ought not to have been incurred.
Yet it amounts, 80 far as our troops are con.

patriots were worsted by Sixty to Seventy

were present under Beauregard at Manassas;
while Of the One Hundred Thousand patriots
confronting them on that line, but Fifty Thou

Mcdowell, and many Of these out Of reach
of the battlefield. That tells the whole story.

Of it all is that we were outrnaneuyered and

THE LATEST WAR NEWS,

The strange and disastrous retreat Of our
troops from their well-cOntested position at
Bulls Run to their old quarters at Arlington
yesterday formed the topic Of much gloomy con-
versatiOn aad somber conjecture. The earliest
dispatches were direc, and appalling in their
plain narrative. According to them the entire
army disintegrated, had fed and had been
more than deeimated by the foe. There was
not CLEAN Of light. As the day advanced,
however, the news changed in some Of its fea-
lures, and became less disheartenDg.
1t is difficult to give q perfectly clear and
coherent account of the afhir of Sunday. The
best will be found in our special dispatches from
Washington, where detailed and logical history
Of the day and night is given. One or two er-
rOrs, which now appear or have during the day
appeared to prevail 10 the minds Of the commu-
nifty, should be at once corrected. In the first
place, the disaster was simply and only the effect
Of q wild panci it was not defeat An army
will yield TO the former, while it would stand
against any positive force that could be brought
against it. The panic seized the troOps, aud
they ran; the enemy did not pursue. In the sec
ond place, the losses on our side are By no means
so great as they were at first reported. Each
dispatch reduces the list. 1t is certain that not
more than 1000 are killed, and some authorities
say that not more than 300 have fallen. The
enemy has suffered terribly, beyond q doubt;
while the killing was going on, our troops had
the real advantage, driving the Rebels before
them. 1t vas only when the fighting was done,
and the ridiculous panic turned the heads of the
men. that they seemed to waver. But what
losses we made happened in straightforward and
brave fighting, and will leave honorable scars
upon the army roll
The steadiness and courage Of the National
troops under fire were remarkable. The hottest
blaze Of artillery had 10 other effect upon them
than to excite in them a steadfast, enthusiastic
determination. They have been holly tried in the
battle, and have not been found wanting.

the army on the Potomac, and reorganization, re-
enforcement, and refreshment viii prepare the
