AN IRISH OPlNlON-THE BLACK HORSE
CAVALRY SUPPOSED TO BE NEGROES.
Inc long expected battle has at last been fought
between the Northerns and Southerns in the fratri-
cldai contest being waged in America, and the
result Is astounding. NoOne who took calm con-
slderate view Of the position and resources Of the
secessionISts, that did not express bis belief that
sooner or later terms would have to be come--that
II the Southerns persisted in seeding from the
Union, the Northerns, no matter how they mirht
puster ana Drag, would be unable to compel sub.
mission. Hence, the best friends Of America wish
ca lot peaceful solution of the question But the
Northern blood was up. The Yankee sprit was
aroused the " lick creation" style was adopted in
the press and on the platform and volunteers rpsh
ed with enthusiasm to the Union standard and in
snch numbers that one would imagine the South
would succumb without striking a blow Eut

initiating defeats recorded in history. A an army

details OF this great carnage yst received and the
accounts are furnished by tho correspondents of
the New ork journals, who fully and fairly admit
the terrible reverse sustained by General Scott
The Sixty-nnh fought brilliantly and suffered
most severely. II daring and courage, and the
ready sacrifice of life could have gained the vic

single handed. But, strange to say, it would ap-

Inc Northerns had no calvary, were completely
uhpfePared Tor campaign, and except the Sixty
nlnth regiment, behaved like poltroons. The Off
GERS were incapable. The generals appear to have
oeen ignorant OF the science of war. The soldiers
mad neither courage nor humanity for in their
tumuituors hight they left their wounded compan-
plteouS and heart-rendiny appeals were made for
succor by the poor sufferers. The South has
always produced the best and abIest men Tho
southern Generals seem to have had a plan of
action. The NortherDs were the invaGers-the
Southerns were prepared to meet them. Jetferson
DAVIS Is himself a soldier, and commanded in nar
sou. General Beauregard is said TO he one of the
'eVerest captains OF the age, and General Johnston
whose timely approach like Bucher at Watarloo
decided the fortunes of the day. is one of the most
popular commanders in America At four o'cInrk

JAPAN.
The correspondent of the New York IVorIJ |
writing from Yeddo gives the following acccuut of
he design on the part of the Japanese 10 profit by
heir late intercourse with the United States:
Mura-gaEl-n0-kaml had been appointed to the |
goyernment of Hakodate (not Hakodadil, aud the |
aikun was desjrous that he should better ascertain
he mineral resources of the island Of Yeddo He |
Knew that there were lead copper, silver and |
perhaps gold mines, and coal beds in the island |
cut to what extent and whether they were such as |
10 repay f"V the working. none of the Japanese
were competent to tell. Still the newly appointed
governor was persuaded there was much undis-
covered wealth in that island. and therefore he had
oeen instructed to request Mr.. Harris to procure
"a with mining operations, and competent to make |
J thorough geological survey of the island tn bs |
'np"yed by the Japanese government and paid by |
ne same Tor their services. Furthermorc the Gov |
,rpor oi hakodate desired MIR. Harris to procure |
rom the United States horse-cart and haroncbe
WITH top that might be drawn back, both Il |
Nnich might soTve as masters or models after
Rhlch the japanese could themselves construct |
uch vehIcies. The cart Is to serve for mining pur
poses, or whatever uses it NAV be found best to |
ubserve, aDd the barouche is wanted for the Gov |
'rnor OF Hakodate, and probably for the convent
'aHl no-kamI to have Carriage for his own use at
,nce that be desires to purchase vehicle belong
nG to the American Consul at kanagawa which is |
ira"n by pair Of ponies, and if no succeeds he |
Will ship both carriage ard horses to Hakodate at
'ncc, by Japanese schooner now in the bay,

America to learn that "Tommy" is we'll and resi- |

eiF9d IN America has n0t spoiled him. He thinks
no united States the best country in the world |
hich is not to be wondered al considering the dis
plays ne saw there of novelties and spendor and |
ne attentions bestowed upon him in particular. | |
I'M giad to see that he is desirous to perfect his
