The scare is pretty we'll over, and th,
friends Of the country are feeling oheered
ct the prospect before ss Many thint
that We needed defeat 10 bring us up Z
duly also to make us fully pnderstanat the
ioe With whom We are eontsnding. w
now see that We have e foe who is deter.
mined 10 win or die-oRe determined d
sucoesa in his uahblS purpose if Il cost
the entire vAlne Of men and means in the
South. We have greatly under,sslimatsd
our enemies in military appointments and
valOr. Il was necessary to know this that
we may at once see the magnitude Of The
work before Us. iThere Is no reason why
we should lose another battle, and there Is
no visible reason Why We should have lost
that Of the 2lst inst, There is to NE 4
Providence in this thing, and / believe fof
wise purpose, showing US our weakness,
aud showing the strength Of the enemy.
The active movements Of the Southern
army show conolusiEely that they intend
to make the most Of their victory. THEFT
Whol6 army Is on the m6Ee -croWdinR on
our lines here, moving on Fort Monroe,
and pushing towards HaFpsr's Ferry. They
are we'll posted in regard 10 our rmcvements!
and hope 10 strike our weak points before
Ve1reoovsr from mihs disaster In this they
win be deceived, for We have q McCiellan
here and a Banks at Harper's Ferry.
Confidence is entirely restored here. In
the three days of General MeClellan's ad-
ministraiion, the appearance Of things 10 a
civilian is most marked. The hotels are
not now filed with officers, nor the streets
with drunken soldiers. The first order
given by the new commander was "to
your tents o Jacob y and it was obeyed.
Wagons were seen about the streets pick
ing up soldiers, aud none are now out ex-
cept by special order. Sunday has been a |
great day for visiting camps on the Vir- |
ginia side, but an order was published in |
forming gentlemen that if they we're
caught there, whether with pass or with |
out, they would be arrested and held until /
Monday morning. l am informed, and il |
came from Cabinet officer, that Gen Nc
Clellan s command is TO be an independent
one-that no active movement is to be /
made BY eur army, except it has his ap.
prObation-in fact, he is to be Commander
in-Chief Of the active forces, and has spe
cial command Of what was the Army Of /
the Potomac, and the Army Of Washington.
You will also see that experienced officers
are ordered to report themselves for active
duty, all tending to show an entire re.or-
gsni1Ation of the army.
More troops are pouring in, and the old
regiments now say, ave want Gen. Nc
Clellan to give us one more chance, aud we
will settle old scores, with large interest
added" In truth, the war feeling to day
is more than satisfactory. We feel that
We are 10 have live officers. The men are
Ill that can be asked.
On Saturday, Andrew johnson made a
most able speech in the Senate, one that
should go into the bands Of every South
5rl man. The House talked the Direct !
Tax Bill 70 death, and iRst5RR-,a' 81 different
nlssse is e ms shall hear from them to-day.
