On lanu the Confederate flag yct fIrs; nor is
it borne only in masterly retreats. The Fede-
raj General Pope has the candor TO admit that
his division had been attacked at Pennington
Greek, five miles northwest Of Corinth, by
twenty thousand Confedcra:os, and after five
hours fighting had been driven across the
creek. Tnc.rcsl history Of this affair is, OF
course, very different from that which we are
allowed to icceive; but as tho fact that the
Conr.deratcs did not pursue 10 probably au-
thentic, it is not likely to have boer victory
of sufficient Importance to have any great in
Guence on tue issue OF the war.

The heels Of tie retreatiDg army Of Rich

enormous armies in the fald, it would be
premature to say that the Confederate pow
er is altogether broken, although 1t is
imnossiblo to repress some feelings CT disap-
nointment at the want of enterprise shown by
the Confederate seamen, who might surely
have done something even with their inferior

The North has not OILY the sea and the rivers
omen to provision aud supply its troops, but it
has the workshops of the world to supply
them with arms and military stores. On the
other hand, the South must by this time be in
nocd of almost every military necessity. The
contest cannot now be equal, and the South.
erners must be almost as inferior in point o.
arms to their invaders as Montezuma waa te
C,rtcz. AT this momont it is the whole worlt
.,o;n,t the South, and the surprise should be
not that they draw back, from tho coast ane
tho river banks but that they make front q
all AGAINST their we'll equipped invaders This
can only be done in the bitterness of their hs
tred and their confidence in the impossibiltJ
Of their entire subjugation.

i, the North, the conscript who objects, or talks

Why man may not sVield power, and be a
