not coincide with the opinion Of newspaper

OF the Commander in- Chief He says:
The Lord be praised for endowing one
man IN this fast, bustling age with the gra-
ces Of silence and patience. Even the Ho-

Scott at this hour, calmly gathering his
thundes-bolis. Said gentleman to him

they expect successful results. War is my

sir, requires money, men, time and Pa

Lincoln has assured me that SHALL HAVE

RtaohED RETURN OF THE SUMTER T

RtMoRED RETURN OF THE SUMTER TO
New ORLEANS, WITH RIFLES, &c.-The
Memphis Aualanchs of July 18th, says:
Our fellow citizen. Capt. J. C. McManus,
the owner of the Vicksburg Mail Line of
steamers, left New Orleans on Tuesday
and arrived in this city yesterday. He
states that dispatch had been received
from Berwick's Bay, to the effec! that the
C. s. war steamer Sumter, Captain Ra-
phael Semmes ian account of whose run
ming the blockade last week we published)
had returned, bringing fifty-fye thousand
Enfield rifles, together with other accoutre-
ments, and large number IF rif1ed cannon.
1t seems that the Sumter met, near Gu
ba, an English vessel that was on her way
to New Orleans with these arms, which
had been ordeted previously. They were
transferred TO the Sumter, and that vessel
had arrived at the Balize in safety. 1t is
fact that will reflect credit upon the gal
liant officers who accompanied it, and il
shows how effective Lincoln's blockade is
The same gentleman informs US tha
over ten Thousand bogsheads of tobacco
were disposed of in New Orleans in one
day during last week. The tobacco is in
tended for the French market, aud the
French purchasers paid for it in gold, in
stead of bills, as heretofore. This informa
tion, we believe, may be reliee upon. The
tobacco must be taken to France, and will
60 there in Franch bottoms. IfOld Abe'l
vessels undertake to prevent it, the distin
guished Railsplitter will have fight on hi
| hands, in which somebody" will be hurt

H The Unionists in Baltimore geuer-
flly attribute the defeat of the Union forces
to the inactivity of General Patterson, who
it is reported was dozen times officially
telegraphed to engage Gen. Johnston at
any odds on Sunday. Thirty arrests were
made for attempts TO incIte mob.
The Heralds despatch. of the 22j says.
The rebels outnumbered US three to one
After the day had been won by US. fresh
rebel troops were substituted for those who
were defeated.
The ammunition of our artillery had been
expended in the contest. AS the caissohs
were rushing at full speed to the rear for a
new supply of ammunition, the movement
was construed by. teamsters and civilians
there into retreat, and a panic among
them occurred.
They ran for their horses, and without
waiting TO ascertain lxGfacts, they cut The
traces Of the wagon horses and commenced
a pre:ipitate retreat. The CONSERVATION
thus created was communicated to the SOL
diers 10 the rear OF the column, at the very
moment when charge of fresh cavalry
from Manosses junction was made upon
them. 1t was nothing more nor less than
a stampede. The enemy were themselves
unaware of it.
The result is, in great measure, attribu-
ted 10 the tardiness of Patterson.
Gov. Sprague's bravery during the whole
day challenged universal admiration, and,
aided BY Mr.. Caster, Paymaster ofthe l4th
New York, succeeded in bringing some de-
gree of order, out of this chaos.
The brave Rhode Islanders were formed
in the rear TO be ready.to oppose the ad-
vance ofpursuers.
The number of killed and wounded has
been greatly exaggerated. Mcdowell be-
haved with the greatest bravery; but this
was unavailing 10 arrest a panic in the rear.
The Fire Zouaves fought like devils
The N. Y. fist, 14th and 9th, the Min
nesota and Maine regiments were the praise
of all. They were moved down like grass
by the batteries upon which they advanced.
The flag of the Maine regiment was COM
pletely riddled.
Col. Wilcox of the lst Michigan regi-
ment was wounded and taken prisoner.
Col Wood of the N. Y. l4th, was woun.
ded and taken prisoner.
It is now estimated that the killed on
cur side amounts 10 between 800 to 500.
Capt D. H. Tillinghast, and Ass stan'
Quarter Master of the U. s. Army, is re-
ported dead. Capt. AYres of the U. S
Army is not taken prisoner or killed as re
ported:
The whole of Sherman's battery is safe
