it to cay that the Hail. the largest in this city,was

4rnpWaRD TO RICHmoND -,

It il stated on the authority Of the
Washington correspondent Of the New
York Commercial Adoertise7, that, when the
CIV Of "Forward to RichmondF -'Tas hrst
raised in the country, there were at
g sMarassas hut three thousand rebel
II troops and twelve hundred negroes, who
=" were engaged in constructing masked bat
..:er;es. two Of which, after much e1ertion,
"ve1e completed. At the time We made
the advance movement, the negro help
<.1.sd been increased to three thousand
4sseven hundred, and the masked batteries
.hetween Bull Run and Manassas were
{. <.uumbered as high as twenty-seEen."
If this is true, and We do not doubt it,
II ho, we ask, is to be blamed for delaying
,,,e onward movement until all these forsl-
fca,;ons were completed? Who is to
;,ianae for fighting the battle, after the
movement was made, against the odds our
men couutered-Patterson meanwhile
1vine On his arms, without being called
r1.on to take part in the strife?
Every day adds 10 the conviction OF the
country that 81 Forward to Richmond = was
the tue policy, and that the day at Aa'
nsssas was los. only by succession O.
b,up1ers and stup;dities that would hsvt

KENTUCKY ELECTION.

Kentucky has spoken again for the

lie recent special election for Members Of |
Cc5gress, she gave 10000 majority for the |
lpion. This time the majority. is even
e-fase7- approaching, as far as heard
..lvaa, almost to unGnimity and more gra-
flying because It declares for an uncoadi-
tiunal Union! The Legislature seems to
be all Union, though some Of the south-
ern and western counties may be relied
lpon to furnish a minority, to consist Of
perhaps Dozen We're it not that Gov.
Magofin stands in the way, and gives not
enly countenance but open support to

loyA cause as any Of the States upon her
northern border. One thing, however,
is made certain: that no eunuch policy Of
-rcutrality" will henceforth be allowed
TO sufe the free voice Of her people; and
let US hope that if it be needful, for -hls
ind, to re-organize the State Government
The Members Of the Legislature will no
he less ready to apply The knife than wer'
the men Of Missouri and Virginia. Th
