THE STRENGTH OF MANAssAs.-A
well known correspondent of the Journal
of Commerce, who visited Manassas with
an excursion party on Friday, fully con
firms the statement of olr own correspon-
don't as 90 the strength of the works and
the number of rebel troops that have been
in possession. OF the strength of Manas-
sas works he says - t#
"I shall not pause here TO speak of the
strength of this celebrated spot, further
than to say in passing, that it is one of the
strongest military positions in the world.
The reasons for this opinion I shall give
when ] describe the ground in another
letter-but it is enough at present to re-
mark, that if 100000 men had advanced
from Washington upon these entrench-
ments, do not believe that 10000 would
have reached the Notifications on the
summit of the slope. The cannon of the
rebels commanded every inch OF the ap-
preach within mile and halt, and there
was neither tree, nor shrub, nor hill, nor
hollow to protect an attacking column
from the deadly fire of 100 guns. Only
in the rear was there any possible method
of dislodqing them"
Again the writer says of the number of
troops that might have been accommoda-
ted -
1--WE ran down from the junction,
mile or so from the station at which we
had stopped. No railroad buildings
stand at the junction. ] presume none
ever stood there. But the huts of the re-
bells abound in this vicinity, and their
white tents are still standing in great
numbers near by. Indeed for three miles
along the road the place must have been
like succession of large villages, and it
still presents that appearance.
With entire respect to those reliable
gentlemen, the newspaper correspon-
dents, who have lately circulated the state
ment that there were not accommodations
for $4,000 men at Manassas, must very
distinctly say that they knew better when
they wrote the statement. No man who
has sufficient brains to correspond with a
third rate paper, could look on the huts
now standing, and the ruins of those
which were burned, without knowing
that they would comfortably hold many
more than 100, 900 men, and with such q
slowing as was practiced at Sabastopol
in 1855, they could lodge 100000. ]
speak of only the huts and tents along the
railway-otbers were abundant down to.
ward Bull Run and Centreville. This
by no means proves the number of the
enemy to have been great, but it disap.
proves the falsehood which was designed
to establish the theory that they were few
in number"

started, after having accomplished its
mission very satisfactorily, in spite of the
extreme rigor of the weather. The old

light on meteorology and natural history.

of the Gulf stream, reaches as far as
