more arrived at 2:3o a. n, from Liverpool
the 18th, via Queenstown the 18th June.
English papers regard the battle before
Richmond from different points of view.
Some contend that it was certainly victory
for the Federals, others look upon it as a
drawn battle, and some give the palm to The
Confederates sG
The Times thinks it very hard foc Con-
| federate General to win victory in North
ern paper, and insinuates that the first day
fight was brought about ~ generalship; but
this success was not neutralized BY the second
| days drawn battle. These battles tell no
more than that both parties are strong enough
to shed each others Blood, and weak enough
to do it.
| Tie Daily News treats the affair as a deoi-
ded victory for the Nationals. 1t regards it
as good illustration of the soundness of
the British policy of refraining from media
| tion.
The Star and Telegraph also claim vic
tory for the Nationals.
| The Morning Post argues that the Nation
| ais were worsted, and says no one can read
McClellan's dispatch without being con-
WINGED that it tells a story of surprise and
| defeat.
The Herald thinks McClellan's plans dis
turbed, and perhaps spoiled, by the vigilance
/ Of the enemy.
The Times, in second article, thinks such
battles cannot fail to have q strong effect on
| the Northern mind, and shows the difficulties
| of the task undertaken.
Every month shows the impossibility more
clearly of restoring the Union by force Of
arms. 1t hopes if hot weather suspends hos

1t was confidently affirmed last evening that
the Monitor had reached Rockets, and that
the city of Richmond is at its mercy.
An intelligent prisoner, captured by Gen.
MCCLELLAN, states that the rebel loss in
killed, wounded and missing is 10000, and
that one-third of these fell in the battle of
Tuesday.
The friends of the Union may dismiss their
fears about the safety of the Federal army at
Richmond. The city ia certain to fall into

The CALL FOR VeLUNTEERs.-We print
elsewhere the correspondence between the
Governors of the loyal States and the Presi-
dent, calling into the field an additional force
Of three hundred thousand men, so as to
bring this unnecessary and injurious civil war
to satisfactory and speedy conclusion" We
can but wish that the call had been made
earlier, but it is not too late. The greatest
blunder of the War Department was in stop
ping enlistments at time when the system
had been perfected, the recruiting stations
opened, and the machinery in good working
order.
The call of the President comes at a time
when the hearts of our people are profoundly
stirred by the events that have transpired
within the past week in front of Richmond.
The disaster that may have overtaken our out
numbered forces there has weakened public
faith in the ultimate triumph of the National
arms, but the people see in these events the
postponement Of the final decisive struggle,
and the protraction of the war. If one or
five hundred thousand more men are needed
to bring it to q successful conclusion, they will
be furnished. The people have never failed
to respond to the call of the Government, and
will not be found wanting in this, the final
crisis of the rebellion Cincinnati Com

lately saw bracelet of gold, representing a

with emeralds, rubies, and sapphires. This
serpent, which twined around the arm three
times, confined the fulness of the sleeve in q
very graceful manner. The brooch for fasten-

also in the form of serpent, and set with jew

broidered in beautifully shaded silks, on drat
colored or white mousseline do laine, have the
most elegant effect imaginable. Flounces and

WASHINGTON, june 27.-The appointment
of Gen. Pope to the command of all the troops
heretofore under Mcdowell, Fremont and
Banks, gives great satisfaction here. The
President has not only conforned to the best
military advice he could obtain, but he has
satisfied the demand Of the public. 1t was
the unanimous sentiment of the members of
Congress that one man should have command
of all the the troops in the East that are not
under Gen. McClellen-I mean, of course
the troops in the field. There were differences
of opinion as to the man who should be honor
ed with the command, but all agreed that it
was time the separate commands were abolish
ished. Gen. Pope knew nothing whatever of
the intention of the government night before
last. He arrived here during the absence of
the President and simply knew that he was
sent for to come to Washington. His friends
were sure the President meant to employ him
in this vicinity, but had no absolute knowledge
Of the fact. Yesterday Gen Pope was sent FOL
and the matter was arranged.

Southern .ChiyaIry,.

Under this head the st. John IN. b. Globe
having been asked to say few words for the
Southerners, quotes from the London Times
an account of the reception of the Prince of
Wales in Richmond in 1850, promising that
"the Prince travelled over most Of the North
ern, and many of the Western States, and was
everywhere received with the respect due to
his position" The fact that the Prince of
Wales was insulted in Richmond alone, will
be remembered by our readers. 1t is curious
however to notice the change which two short
years may work in human opinions. The
Times of 1860 thus described the populace of
the capitalcity of Secessia:
"The Prince and his suite went with the
Mayor of Richmond to visit the Capitol, and,
there being no police, the crowd proceeded to
press on the party, and to subject them TO ev-
cry kind of insulting remark. 1t must be pre-
missed that notrhere in the free States is there
TO be found, among the natice Americans at
least, class so rutidnty and deprared as are
the loWer class Of ,chites at the South. These
worthless are the drinking, staggering, swear
ing, gambling, revolver-and- d-bowe-k -kniie-using
gentry, who furnish so many paragraphs TO the
newspapers, and hare almost come TO be taken
as the type Of the american character. Fan
cy mob of four or five hundred shareholders
horsedealers, small planters, liqnor-store keep
ers and loungers, and you will probably have
the crowd that rushed after the Prince of
Wales and the Duke of Newcastle. Accus-
toned to uncontrolled dominion over the
streets, ready for any deed of violence. from
the tarring and feathering OF an abolitionist,
TO the burning alive of an insurgent negro, a
Southern mob is capable of being led away by
any worthless fellow who gets its ear, and
when once excited is soon beyond the control
even Of its leaders. 1t appears that at Rich
mond the crowd began by being merely Curl
Gus and jocose. They pushed in, and allowed
the Princes party no privacy whatever.
While examining statue of Washington, the
Prince was saluted with such remarks as HE
Washington socked it into you at the Revo-
luton He gave you English squirts the col
ic.' we reckon you do love Washington
oh certain As the party walked to the SEN
ate Chamber the crowd started at run. and nc
tually pushed them inside the door. The par
ty would have been glad to stay but it was
impossible. They walked still followed by
the rude populace, to the Governors house,
where the closed doors allowed them to
breathe freely, and TO be presented to the la
dies Then their carriages slipped unobserved
round the corner, and eluding their tormentors
the party rode back 10 the hotel. " to find
another crowd pregnant with similar ideas of
hospitality"

HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT No. CARDINAL
kinston, December 14th, 1862.
TO Maj. Gen. Hdlteck:-I have the honor to
inform you that left Newbern for this place
on the 11th inst, but owing to bad roads and
consequent delays to my trains, &C., did not
reach the South West Creek, five miles from
this town, until the 18th inst.
The enemy were posted there but by heavy
artillery fire in front, and vigorous infantry
attack on either flank, succeeded in forcing
passage, and without much loss. This morn
ing l advanced on the town, and found the en-
emy strongly posted at a defile through
marsh bordering on creek. The position was
so well chosen that very little of our artillery
could be brought in play. The main attack,
therefore, was made by the infantry, assisted
by few guns pushed forward in the roads.-
After five hours hard fight, we succeeded in
driving the enemy from their position. We
followed them rapidly to the river The bridge
over the Neuse River at this point was pre-
pared for firing, and was fired in six places,
but we were SO close behind them that we
saved the bridge. The enemy retreated pre-
cipitately by the Goldsboro' and Pikeville
roads. Their force was about 5000 men, with
twenty pieces of artillery. The result is, we
have taken kinston, captured eleven pieces of
artillery, and taken from 400 to 500 prisoners,
and found large amount of quartermasters
and commissary stores Our loss will not ex-
ceed 200 killed and wounded. l am, with
great respect,
Your obedent servant,
