Hrom tho Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.
America has given Europe a sensation
The naval action or Newport News, between
the Merrimac and the Monitor, has produced
a greater amount of excitement than any
other event Of our civil war. In England
the excitement approaches alarm and terror.

GERS, the essayists, the ship-builders-all are

on the subject. The newspapers are iull Of
it, and the Times, which, in its character of
1.-THE leading Journal" seeks to 20 ahead Of
all others, says that stone forts and wooden
war vessels are worthless, and announces
the startling fact, In capital letters, that the
British "men OF war are reduced to two"
The little Monitor has done this. She ia
regarded az having proved herself more
than match for the Merrimac, which had
already proved herself more than match
for our finest wooden frigates. The cheap
ness Of the Monitor, and the rapidity with
which che was built, recommended her espe-
cially to the English, and they are clamoring
for a feet OF Monitors. They are even
clamoring for the abandonment, as worse
than worthless, of the hundreds of great
wooden steamers that now compose the
British navy. Captain Ericsson's little ma
rine warrior has virtually reduced the force
by which Britannia rules the waves, to the
two iron-clad vessels. that at present COM
pose her whole force, OF that clRss. She has
been more than a Monitor; she has become
an extln9uisher and terror. She has des-
troyed the selfcOnldenee of the greatest
naval power on earth, and she has reduced
to almost nothing, the value OF a feet on
which hundreds Of millions sterling have
been expended.
On the continent there is scarcely less stir
about the Monitor than thete ia England.

the Austrian governments are recovering

AFFECTING DIsCovERY.--A Sergeant of
the Second Kentucky had q strange pre-

Secessionist, was wounded in the Pitts

found him badly wounded. Both Of the
