ARCHBISHOP HrGHEs OK THE WAR.-1he ser
mon ofvArchbishop Hughes on the war is emf
nently conservative and patriotic. He comes
Union and the constitution. and thinks the
whole people ought to demand to be drafted in
order to make short work of the war, and in
order to avoid the danger Of foreign intervcn-
ton in consequence OF protracting the struggle.
When he was in Europe he is reported 10 have
said in one OF his speeches that Ii JEFF. Davis
and the South should be successful he would
yield his allegiance to them But il is remark
able he does not say this now. The Archbishop
is satisfied since his return that the success of
the North is no longer doubtful. Hence he
ceases to argue upon the hypothesis Of South
ern success. The principle Of Dr.. Hughes and
the doctrine Of the Catholic Church agree in
rendering TO Cesar the things that are Caesars.
The Catholic Church Is ia favor OF the Powers
that be-" without regard TO the justice Of their
cause. Il is in favor OF existing organized
government, in contradistnction TO revolution
and anarchy, and also in favor OF unity and con-
solicitation, even to imperialism, in opposition 10
disintegration and schism. Archbishop Hughes,
therefore, as a churchInan, is on the side Of law
and order. How different is his course from
that Of the Cheevers aud Beechers, vino only
give the government conditional support and
do not pray for its success unless i proclaims
universal emancipation end arms the negroes.
The tendency of their action h 10 subvert ex-
listing institutions; the policy OF Archbishop
Hughes is TO preserve tho Union as II is slavery
included They throw vet blanket on war
like enthusiasm and discourage enIistments;
the Archbishop kindies martial ardor where it
did not exist before, aud fans II to fame
where it had been already kindled There can
be no doubt that under the incentives OF Dr.
Hughes vast numbers Of the Irish population
will at once volunteer to recruit the gallant
armies of the Union, instead Of waiting Tor the

The FIGHr or TAE Essex WITH THE ARKAN-
sAs.--NAvAL INErFscIENcY.-Sinc Commodore
now Admiral) Foote resigned the com
mand Of our Mississippi gunboat lotiila
matters have not been progressing very
well on that river. Flag Officer Davis has
failed to exhibit the qualities that were looked
for in the successor of that dashing but expe-
rienced officer. The attack on VicAsburg was
badly planned and was conducted with little
Judgment. The manner in which the rebel ram
Arkansas was allowed to escape from the Yazoo
river and run the gauntlet Of our upper feet
showed. to say the least of it, a great want OF
vigilance; and the failure to support the Essex
in ner gallant attempt TO cut her out from I'M
der tie rebel batteries seems to have been
caused entirely by the noncompliance of its
commander with the conditions Of the previous.
ly arranged plan Of operations. The facts, as
the fiotilla, have been fully confirmed by
the official report of Commander Porter,
of the Essex. He states that he was allowed to
remain under the fire Of the enemy's heaviest
batteries for upwards of an hour and thirty
minutes. as distance Of from eighty to one hum
dred yards. without the slightest effort being
made by either of the fleets to come TO his re-
lief He was, therefore, reluctantly compelled
to give orders to put the head Of the vessel
down stream. Now, the. initial movement.
according to the plan of operations, was to have
been made by Flag Officer Davis; and it is to
he inferred that, finding the guns Of the latter
did not engage the upper batteries, Captain
Farragut was led to believe that the Essex had
succeeded, or would succeed in accomplishing
the work alone.
Flag Officer Davis is evidently not the man
to command feet in important operations Of
this kind The facts, as they have transpired,
bear too unpleasant similarity to story told
OF him at Port Royal not to force us to this con-
clusion. II is stated that while he was second
in command to Commodore Dupont he was sent
with several vessels to make . reconnaissance
up the Savannah river. He took with
him an experienced pilot and. on recon
noitering the river, found that the
rebels had placed distractions across
the channel. Satisfied with ascertaining the
fact, he gave the order to return to the feet,
when the pilot demonstrated with him, stating
the distractions could be easily removed dur
ing the night, and Savannah captured. SAY
nothing about it." replied Davis; I'VE have
taken Hilton Head, and that viii suffice for the
present" We do not vouch for the truth of
this story; but 1t bears an unfortunate resem-
blance to the narrative OF the Eseex affair. given
by Commander Porter. Without laying too
much stress on the latter. we think there is suf
ticieHt in the facts that have been officially
brought under the notice Of the Department to
call for an investigation into Flag Officer Davis
conduct at vioksburg.

equal In numbers to bothf Our two armies,
approaching within striking distance, would
thus be in the position of an army cut in twain
on the field Of battle, and in danger Of being
utterly destroyed in detail.
What then, has become Of the Army Of the
Potomacs On Saturday morning at ei4t
O'Clock Gen. McClellans advance arrived o
williamsburg but by this time it is probable
that the whole peninsula has been abandoned
by our forces, excepting Yorktown and some
essential points of occupation in the neighbor-
hood Of Fortress Monroe. We are content for
the present with what has been accomplished
in the evacuation Of Harrisons Landing. In
moving onward to Richmond" we have been
twice repulsed by the same strategy OF the
enemy. At Manassas, leaving Gen. Patterson
asleep with . superior army in the Shenandoah
valley, the rebel Gen. 10. Johnston came up
with his fresh troops in season to turn q
victory won into disastrous defeat and
next, Stonewail Jackson steals away from the
fifty or sixty thousand men reserved by the
War Department to catch him, and, with forty
thousand unexpected men, turns the right flank
OF General Mcclellan on the Chickahominy.
This thing, we are now assured, with Gene
raj Halleck holding the reins, will not be per-
mitted the third time. On the contrary, while
we interpret this last retroerade movement Of
our Army of the Potomac as positively arrest
ing the advance of the rebel army from Rich
mond, we believe that, from the three, four or
Eve thousand fresh troops per day under the
new call pouring into Washington, we sha IL,
within twenty days, be able to move forward
an army in Virginia strong enough to enter the
rebel capital and hold it, perhaps, without an
other battle.

of credit by this House, that the countersign

And whereas, 1t is also reported that infor.
