The Havoc of War.

The following picture of the mansion of
an ex. Congressman is from the neighbour
hood OF the chain bridge:
| rode around with forsgiDg party.
We entered his fine old mansion, and |
could not but weep over the sad changes
which could see had taken place within a
few hours-within no living soul was left.
The soldiers entered for time | stood
back, but when | did 60 in what sight
presented itself. Already the floors were
covered knee deep with books and papers,
which it must have required long life of
toll and trouble to amass, fine swinging mir
rOrs shivered into thousands of pieces-a fit
emblem of the sad condition to which efforts
are being made to reduce this glorious
GOverDment--each piece rejecting minia-
ture images of what the whole had shown,
but never again to reflect those pigmy
images in one vast whole. In the large and
spacious drawing room soon stood the ruins
of one of those od-fashioned side-boards,
around which has grown so much of the
reputation of Southern high life and hospi
tally; its doors, wrenched from their
hinges, lay scattered on the floor; large
mahogany sofas, with their covers torn off,
marble top tables, stationery, china, stoves
and spittOons, were there in one promiscu-
Gus heap of ruins. stepped into the library,
hoping to bring away some relic that had
been untouched by the soldiers, but 1 Was
too late--all here was ruin.
looked on the vast orchards, the beau
tiful flower garden, the long rows of laden
grape vines, the broad acres of corn and
clover. Just then, company after company
from the different regiments came up; gates
were thrown open, fences thrown down, and
horses, cattle and mules were destroying all
these evidences of prosperity and comfort.
And this IS but one feature in the great
haggard countenance of war which stares at
us whenever we look at Virginias " sacred

alone would give interest to a whole volume,

The Weather and the War.

From The New York Times, 18th.
We presume the rain of yesterday was
the Equinoctal, and that it was as severe
in Virginia as in New York. Ii so, it is
very likely to prove the turning point in
the war. Should the Potomac be rendered
unfordable tor week, as has been frequent
ly the case during the summer, all plans OF
the rebels for crossing it into Maryland
must be abandoned. In this time the vast
forces we are collecting upon its banks will
render all attempts to force a passage
hopeless Such, we assume, will be the
fact. What will be the effect upon the rebel
army? VIII it waste upon the intrench~
ments defending Washington, constructed
with consummate art, and defended by
more than 100000 men This would be
an act of madness. But if neither alterna-
tive should be taken, what will be the pol
icy of the rebels Will they remain be
hind their intrenchments at Manassas !?
This is hardly credible, as by universal
confession, even of themselves, it is an insa-
luxurious and inconveHient site tor great
camp. Can the army remain there an
Indifferent spectator of our operations upon
the Southern coast, which will soon assume
a magnitude which must crush we'll
grounded fears OF their success. 1t is
vastly more important for the rebels to
defend their cotton and rice fields than
Virginia. These support the war, While
Virginia, in addition to moderate supply
of certain kinds OF food, is only the theatre
for its operations.
The rebels must be greatly exercised in
their dilemma. They have allowed, from
inability to move when we were weak, the
golden moment pass for the capture of
Washington. The prestige of Bull Run is
all lost. From General McClellan's policy
they must fight, if they fight at any time fer
a mouth to come, under such disadvantages
as to render success hopeless. 10 retreat
South would be a fatal step. But OF all the
alternatives presented, this appears to be
most probable. A retrOgrade movement
will be made, not SC much In obedience to
the command OF its chief, as from the gra-
dual withdrawal from the army Of detach-
ments of troops of the several States, called
home for self defence. The South is almost
entirely undefended at its most vulnerable
points We presume the policy of our 60
vernment is now we'll settled, which is to
wait an attack upon the Entertainments at
Washington, till it has forwarded one or
more powerful expeditions to operate upon
the Southern seacoast. When these shall
have effected landing, General Mcclellan

A SepOy Landlord.

The particulars OF the destruction of q
railroad train near ST. Joseph. Missouri,
where scores of innocent travellers met a
horrible death or were so mutilated that
instant death would have been a mercy,
and that this calamity was caused by the
pro-slavery Sepoys of that region, have all
been told, but here is new fact in relation
to it which we find ia the Daily Nebrdskian:
In st. Joseph, when the bridge burning
fiends returned from their work of murder,
and told Of the destruction they had caused,
and the hearthstODes they had made desolate
the lives destroyed and hearts broken,
when the sad tidings should be made known
to anxious frends--the proprietors OF the
Pacific Hotel threw open their doors, and,
spreading their tables with rich food and
costly wines, invited them to feast such
as no other body of men ever par.
took of in that city. This, too, is the
very house before which the dead and
wounded were placed, and while the groans
and cries of the latter, commingled with the
lamentations of friends, who were searching
amid the pile of backened and disfgured
dead for the faces OF loved ones, were borne
upon doors and while the spirits OF the
murdered dead were lowering around the
very windows of the festive ball.

Immense Armies.
on he Cincinnati Enquirer.

From he Cincinnati Enquirer.
There is little doubt that the armies now
now in Washington aud its vicinity amount
to the immense aggregate OF near 100000
men on. each side, or near 100000 combat
ants. Whenever a general battle shall
occur, it will not only have no parallel on
the Western Continent in the forces en-
gagged, but hardly one in the history even of
modern Europe will vie with it. The great
battles OF Napoleon were generally fought
with numbers far inferior to those now un
der the walls of Washington. For instance,
at Austeritz, where Napoleon defeated the
combined armies OF Russia and Austria, be
had but $4,000 troops: the Lies had
100000. al Jena and "A uerstadt, where
he broke the power of Prussia, his forces
were not over 10000 strong. At the
great battle of Wagram, fought with the
Austrians on the banks Of the Danube in
1909, he had but 10000 men. At Boro
dino, under the walls of Moscow, he had but
10000 to oppose the Russians. At Wa
terlOO be did not have 20 exceed $4,000
troops. Not one of the battles in Italy or
Spain even equaed this last number. The
only battle field we now recoect of where
the cOmbatantS were as numerous as thOse
around Washington, Was Leipsic, in 1913,
where Napoleon had $4,000, and the
Allies--Russians, Austrians, Prussians
Swedes, and Germans--numbered 100000.
Nearly half million of men took part in
this tremendous battle, which was known as
the Combat OF the Giants. 1t lasted three
days, and ended in complete overthrow of
Napoleon, who was driven into France,
where series Of disasters commenced that
did not end until Napoleon abdicated his
crown, and was exiled to the Island of Eliza.
in 1914 No battle was ever fought on the
soil of the United States where 10000
combatants took part in it on both sides.
From these figures we can judge of what a
battle we have reason to expect when the
hosts of McCleIlen and Beauregard, more
than twice the number of those OF Napoleon
and Wellington at Waterloo, come in
collision on the banks of the Potomac. 1t
will then be an event that will be the great
military feature, probably, for ages to come
OF martial proves in America. Wash.
iDgtOn never had thirty thousand men in one
army under his command; jackson never
bad fifteen thousand, and Scott never before
the present year had seen twenty thousand
troops under his orders. Great is the
ability required to maneuver aud handle
such large body of men, ard bring them
AL into action at the proper time and place.
The late battle at Bull Run extended over
seven miles from one end of our Ii, e to
another. At Washington, probably, the
battle may be raging over q field double
this size.
10 know what is going on 10 such an
amphltheater, and to be prepared to order
up reserves and strengthen every exposed
point, requires the highest degree of in>
tellect. At the battle of Bull Run half OF

and commerce. In religion Hesse Darn
stadt is mainly Lutheran and Calvanstic,
though it contains above 100000 of Roman
Catholics. La 1888 the military establish
ment of the Grand Duchy was fixed at
6.288 men but the war establishment was
raised to lO,5l4 in 1855. Its population,
according TO the census of 1851, was
3543l4.
Prince Ere lerick William Louis, the

The Arrested Maryland Legislators.

AAo AEesIou MaryianO 1@kisIatOrss
The Baltimore american Of Thursday last
says:
"The following is list of the members
of the Maryland Legislature brought down
from Frederick in the train and disembarked

"Some were in good spirits, whilst
others were greatly depressed, all of course
considering themselves deeply aggrieved.
According to all accounts, however, they
ruled the Union men of the legislature and
OF Frederick with rod of iron at the last
