WASHINGTON, July "a correspondent Of
newspaper dating of Vieksburg has stated
that the cause OF the almost criminal delay in
taking Nlcksburgh is attributed to Instructions
from the Secretary Of the Navy to Com. Farrs
gu, compelling him To remain silent aud mac
tive before that devoted city.
The fact is the Secretary has given no instruc-
lions VI any character. In the language OF a dis
tingushed Office, our vessels could not climb
hills, and the condition of the Army of the
West is such that cooperating land force is
not available.
The place could not be held by the Navy if
the batteries were slenced, as Van Dorm with u
large rebel force, is lying back OF tho city -
The Navy it may be stated, is co-operator
with the land forces in the capture OF places
protected as Vlcksourgh is, by land and water
delences Our nayal forces have not been Idle
before Vicksburgh, but success has been delayed
owing Ia reasons stated.

Fill up the Old Regiments.

The New York Eueniug Post has az abe
and opportuue article, urging the impor-
tarce of filling up the old regiments now in
the field, before the new regiments are Or
ganized. 1t says: The urgent need to-day
is to recruit their ranks--to fill up to the
maximum standard the brave organizations
which now, after the sickness and battle, of
a year, are mere Skeletons" We copy the
following excellent suggestion:
The strenuous effort of every great gen.
eral has been to recruit the tried reg jments
with new men. 1t was the study Of Napo-
leon, when be returned from his disas rus
Russian campaign with a broken army, and
the danger was imminent, 10 place new re-
cruits by the side Of veterans, and TO keep
alive the old organizations with their officers
aud historic g0ries. When he returned
from Elba his first act was to call abon, h,m
from Spain and Italy all MS non-commi~-
stoned officers to lead his new recruits and
on the field OF Waterloo, WHEN tie Old
Guard, (Which never Surrendered" pusseo
from time into history tie Young recruits
of which it waa in coed part composed

of the great masters Of war. We are N 10

The Causes Of Our Present Position.

Ihere is 10 blinking or Disgusting the
iact thf he country ie in g-o"'~- peril to-
day tb-3 at any time since the outbreak Of
the war; After fifteen months OF fighting,
the Government, backed with 20 100000 of
true people and all the money it has asked
for, finds itself acting on the defensive, and
menaced with the danger of revolt by the
Border States and by that of foreign in.
tervention. The Albany Journal gives the
following version of the causes that have
produced this calamitous result
The rebellion, in its progress, but for the
frantic zeal of those who aided in preciplr
tating it, would have indicated the means
by which it could have been and should be
crushed. Slavery, by its madness, would
have brought about its own destruction.
But in anticipating and in attempting to
force "events," instead of awaiting their
development, the best hopes and highest
prospects of the Union have been thwarted.
The more than sncendiary the scarcely lees
than internal spirit represented by MIR.
Sumner in the Senate, Wendell Phillips in
the forum, and the 1ribmnes of the Press,
has united the Southern people and now
threatens to divide the North. The speech
es, lectures and fulminations from these
sources have been used by secession lead
ers and journals to aggravate and intensity
Southern hostility. Instead of having, as
would long since have been developed, pow>
erful minorities of Union men in the insur
gent States, we now see men, women and
children banded together against Us, fight
ing, as they believe, for all that is hallowed
by domestic relations and social ties. The
real character of the rebellion, in the eyes of
its victims, has thus been changed. The
ambitious, wicked, fratricidal leaders-Da
Wis, SlideI, Toombs, Mason, &c.-epjoy the
advantages of changed issue, 10 which
their great crime is merged

of the condition of matters at the West
THE MORTAR BOATS TO BE SENT TO FORTRESS
MONROE.
The Vicksburg enterprise seems to be
partially abandoned. Twelve of the sixs
teen mortar boats hava been ordered to
report at Fortress Monroe. They are con.
voyed around by Captain Davis, who goes
in his flag ship. Thus our friends, the NOR.
tar boat men, will have an opportunity to
revisit the scenes of their youth.
THE PROP 0sED CANAL AT vICKsBURG.
The canal is progressing satisfactorily. It
is impossible to guess what is 60 ng to be
the precise result of the ditch. Some think
that it will require more head on the river
than it will have before the fall rains to
force through this new place q channel suf.
tciently large to carry steamboat safely
through. Others say that in a day after
the levee is cut the boats will be running
through. Of conrse, no one can tell what
bars or other obstacles will be formed
either in the new canal or where it empties
into the old one. Of course, some very
considerable disturbance may be expected
1t seems to me hazardous sort of an ex~
pertinent. But if it succeeds it will be the
neatest venture of the whole war.

there is no enemy in force west of the river.

about it. This "said TO be" is about play.
ed out. Hindman was said to be after Cur.
tis, with gigantic army. The fact is, the
secessionists are fed upon hopes. They are
species of chameleon, and live upon air.
The West is, so far as actual warfare is
concerned, subdued. The rebel forces are
scattered all over the country. They will
not again concentrate unless it should be
determined again to SHIFT the scene of the
war from the East to the West. We must
occupy the important posts. shoot off the
guerillas, keep sufficient force in the field
to protect property, and encourage the citi.
zens to re open and keep open the avenues
Of trade. War is going to be the most val.
liable agency in recaiming this people.
