months in Paris. lie evaded espionage,

From the Richmond Wing, OH inst.
An article from the New York Tribune
gives some account of the progress which
the enemy is making upon the WATER
With the vessels, money and credit they
stole from us, they hope to be able to fit
out navy of tremendous force, which
will enable them to make predatory de-
scents all along our coast. There is no
doubt but that this is the sort of war
which they design wagng against u.s.
With the command of the sea and by
means Of gun-boats, constructed for shall
low waters, they expect to burn our cit
les, steal our property and paralyze us in
any aggressive movement we may medi-
tate. OF course, such warfare would
conquer nothing-it would be very little
different from piracy: but it would be
annoying and intolerable, We must ar
rest it-.and that soon-and the way
to do it is by bold, prompt and de-
cisive stroke at the heart of the
enemy. We can only stop this piratical
war, recover our portion Of the navy and
other property in the old United States
partnership, and conquer lasting peace,
ON the banks of the Delaware and Hud-
son. Thther we must go at all hazards
and at any cost.

What q Spanish General Saw in the
Federal Army.

General Lana, the Spanish officer men.
toned in Mr.. Russell's last letter as on n
visit to Washington, writes letter to the
Dinio de Ia Hajana Just after the baltic
of Manassas, from which we take n
graphic and amusing extract:
1t is necessary 10 see this place to DO
convinced OF what is occurring, and to
form an idea of what kind of an affair an
army is composed of men without sny
military habits, and led by officers
chiefs and generals-for the most part
devoid of the necessary military khowl-
edge. Excepting the war material in
the transportation department, such as
wagons. gun-carriages, ambulances, &C.,
which is magnificent, all else is confu-
sion of i'll clad men, without any military
! instruction, and, what is worse, without
trying to acquire it, according to appear
ances, since during the time remained
there have seen them pass days and
nights in the camps without doing any
thlng, with the exception of battalion
drill for short while in the morning.
and again in the evening. As far as !
have been able to observe, they have no
large fields for maneuvring or target ex-
ercises, which surprised me- since know
the tondness they have for it in this coun-
try. Nothing impresses you that .hero
are seventy thousand men in the neigh
borhood preparing for war. Silence and
tranquility reign in the city and camps,
heither more nor less than if everything
were in a normal state.
For all have searched, have not
succeeded in finding either cavalry or
artillery. True the latter they abandon.
ed on the Bull Run field Of battle, and
the former they have never had, except
in comparatively insignificant numbers.
What they have is draught guns, the
harness and gun carriages are all bran
new, since they lost those they previous
ly had in the battle, and that, too, in
great numbers-as every one says.
Certainly, all that money can procure
is had here in abundance; but there are
things which cannot be improyised.-
Hence it is that, according to my opin-
ion, these gentry will be beaten as often as
they 60 int9 battle-at least for the pres
ent.
Nothing of all that is said by tho
Southern papers on the result of the bat
tie is exaggerated. Here it is known per-
tectly well that the Federalists, besides
having run away helter-skelter lost about
$4,000 muskets, seventy-odd cannon all
their wagons and provisions, field train,
tents, and great part of their KNAPP
sacks. 1t is only necessary to take
peep at an encampment, to notice that
not one of these latter is to be SEEM
The soldiers use no more clothing nor
uniform than what we understand by
barrack dress, and their clothes are SO
cumsily worn, dirty and molly, that it is
necessary to see 10 believe. Boards and
long hair are also very much in fashion:
! wonder if they imagine the enemy will
be frightened by showing them dishevelil
ed heads and dirty, hairy faces.

Our GcnaralS.

While petty iealousies abound in petty
places, and efforts are put forth to excite
personal rivaries, it is pleasing TO read the
following from the Richmond Examiner:
The armies of Gems. J Johnston and Beau
regard have been temporarily combined
and styled the Army Of the Potomac"
While united for certain purposes, they
arc stIl distinct as ever in their organiz iza-
tions and in the details of command.-
Gen. Beaurogard is at the head Of the first
corps and Gen. Johnston of the second.
While the latter is the ranking officer of
seniority OF appointment, and could, ac-
cording TO regulation, assume entire COM
mund of the army, yet, with that defer
cnce for the feelings and soldicry reputa-
tion Of his illUstrious comrnde, he has
waived this right, and RENTS to him the
full enjoyment of all the authority ard
prerogative which he had anterior to his
own arrival ut Manassas. The commands
are in all essentials distinct, and no order
of general character is ever issued by
Gen. Johnston without full and free in
terohange Of opinion with Gen. Bcaurc-
gard. To say that this conduct is not
appreciated by Gen. Beauregard would
do gross injustice TO that gallant officer,
and it gives us pleasure to inform our
readers that nothing can exceed the mu-
tual feeling of affection, respect and con-
fidence existing between our two distn-
gtiissta Generals. There is no clashing
of authority, no contention, no heart.
burning. Everything moves on in tho
army with the most perfect accord and
good feeling.

Shortly afterwards the Federal scouts dis
