in his for coat and accompanied BY his Esqui-
maux dogs, travelled with Beal's Pauoroma of
the Arctic Regions, some two or three years
since, is now serving in the ranks of the 10th
regiment Of Indiana, and has done good SER
vice in Western Virginia. He accompanied
Dr.. Kane on his perilous voyage to the Arc
tic Regions. and is of the right stuff for sol.

T The Chicago Tribune says ''it would do
vShy hsssS SOOu W ICCOuuS tuC CouSCS WHICH,
led to reverses suffered in the battle at Ma
nassas." Il is beginning to be generally ad-
mitted that the principal cause Of that disas-
ter. vas that the federal troops we're sent in
to the fight before they we're prepared for it,
in obedience TO the counsel of such Man asses
as the New York Tribune and its Chicago echo.
" Mr.. JEFF. Davis says he took q, 900 stands
OF arms at Bulls Run; but, considering that we
had only 1000 men engaged in all, and that
the great majority Of them brought their guns
with them out of the action, and have them
still, we fear that the ilIustrous JEFF has rather
stretched point in stating the quantity of his
warlike trophy York Tribune. -a
u JEFF Thompson, the noted Secession lea
der. says, in his proclamation to the citizens Of
South Missouri, "Come and join Us; We have
forty thousand Belgian muskcts coming. but
bring your guns with you, if you have got any
81 have millions of money" said . dsshing
gent to the girl about to run away with him,
'but you might as we'll scrape up ali the jewel
~ and spare change you have got. "--LouisUille

u Il Is established that the sesesssionists
had 81 900 men within their lines at Bulls
Ruu on the morning of the battle, and that Jeff
Davis in person brought up IL 600 more from
Richmond, who reached them about noon
They had therefore fully three times as many
as Gen. Mcdowell, and four times as many as
were brought into action on our side. On the
other hand, it must be admitted the responder.
ance in spectators on our side was very great.
u Some of the good people may wonde,
what Cen Mcclellan was making calls upon the
Houses of Congress for. If they had looked
sharply, they would have discovered that there
was coincidence between bis calls upon Con
gress and the passage of the important and nee
essary Law forbiddins the sale of Intoxicating
liquors to the soldiers in the District of Colum

D A GRAND Army TO GATHER AT ST. LOUIS
We learn that orders have been issued, BY
which force of some twenty or thirty regi
ments will be concentrated at St. Louis within
a week or ten days from date. The object is t.
form an efficient camp of instruction for thi'
region and to prosecute vigorous military opera
ations from this important point. The level ant
excessive erea west of the Fair Grounds has beer
selected as the site for the grand camp.-St
Louis Democrat.
J, u The Direct Tax Bill passed by Congress
, levies over 81 900 on Kansas. Kansas ha
furnished four or Eve regiments, for active ser
vice during the war. Her situation is more ex
posed than that of any other loyal State. Ye
she is left unprotected, and without even tn
arms to protect herself! Why is the Govern
ment thus negligent
T Coon FOR An Ex EDlroR-The name @
the Captain who it was remarked, marched hi
company from Bull Run, in perfect order an
with perfect GOODNESS, was Joseph Hawley, Car

All honor, says the Tribune, to the journalist

u We clip the following from the Mon
gomery (Ala.) Confederation, Of July %:
:, The Norfolk Day Book reports nightly rio
a / II tu8t city Uct"ccu tuC cosuiCaS ehu viz ~
Gems, and also states that the soldiers have eI

horrible depredations.
: U "Od Dave Atchison," the "whiskey ba
: rel" as Brown!ow calls him, who participate
!. in the engagement at Carthage, and witnesse
l Seigel's maneuvers, says he is the best con
( mander in America, without any exception
!. which is saying good deal, coming from Il
8 source it does.
u A Virginia correspondent of the Men
phis Argus says that Gen. Mcclellan 'is u
doubleday the ablest Abolition officer" al
!. that his way of bouncing upon two or thr
!. hundred of our men, like wild cat out of q
v woods, must be stopped" So he says Genel
Lee was sent to Western Virginia.
FL u In less than three days after the defeat
:. Manassas, more than 100000 fresh voluntee
we're offered TO the United States GovernmeI

DAYS. Defeats strengthen the United Stat
Government more than victories ever streDgt
