Hasten slowly" is found to be such good
motto for the normal conditions of life, that
we are apt to think that slowness is mill
tary virtue. But with nearly all the great
military names which have come down to
VS., quictness must be largely associated
Napoleon, Frederick the Great, Nelson,
Washington, were all rapid in combination
and movement. The rebels have announc
ed that they were ousted from Missouri and
Maryland by being surprised; the sudden
occupation Of Cairo early in the war was
the hectic spot on the rebellionin Kentucky;
and if we mistake not, the late movements
of Gen. Fremont in Virginia will stand a.
vindicaton of not only his fame, but Of
the energetic style Of warfare, which ha,
been but little used in this contest. II Gin

General Fremont.

IL is somewhat awkward crisis for those
who have been for some time reminding us
of Fremont's "incompetency, and that
the same was implied in his being placed in
the Mountain Department, where nothing
was to be done, as the Herald chucklcd -
The nation now has to contemplate in his
Department the finest march and tho most
brilliant movement which have occurred
since the days of Napoleon. One day we
are sitting in gloom and misgiving, seeing
the tide Of rebellion sweep back ovcr third
Of Virginia, whence it had been driven back
by much toll and patience, and the loss Of
many brave mon; for few heavier blows
have come than when we heard that our d.
vided army was defending the passes of the
Potomac against fearful invasion. But
almost with the next mornings sunrise
there is a burst Of light from behind the
cloud. Fremont presses on over rugged
steeps--asain Pathfinder -i6rding rivers,
trampling thickots, wading swamps; retakss
town after town, speeds like an avenger af +.
ter the fleeing traitors, and regains for ma :
tion almost panic stricken all il had LOST
Western Virginia and the Piedmont are
again ours; and with reasonable vigilance
we need nev or lose them again.
The nation will look upon Fremont as the
representative warrior in this conflict. He
is one Of the Generals, and their number is
quite limited, who are aware that this is a
war and not political difference. -
There isno mercy in firing blank cartridges
at an enemy" said Napoleon. General II.
seems to concur in this sentiment As a
warrior he wrote when in the field in Mis-
souri,. "If anything stands in my way, un-
hesitatingly strike it, and In the same
spirit he inauguratsd his entrance upon the
Mountain Department with the execution
OF the murderers ofa loyal youth. His ad-
ministration Of his department has been
characterised'by energy, rapidity, nerve, aaa
an absolute steadfastnsss TO his purpose and
devotion TO country. 4
There is popular tendency To undsrrate
in mil itary affairs the virtue Of rapidity -

"The life ofthe Flesh Is IN hhe. Blood" was
said by ipspiIption long before Harveys dis

"A battle before Richmond has at last put
TO the test tho rebel boasts as to what they
would do with Gen. McClellan's army when
they should ret il beyond the protection Of
the gunboats. Though the advantage of a
sudden movement against the weakest point
in our lines, gave the enemy q temporary
success, the final result has not been such AS

ed and demoralized troops, or occasion any
fears as to our Ultimate possession OF the re-

The attack commenced shortly after one

on his weakened forces. The right of the
line was held by his first Brigade, under
Gen. II. NJ. Naglee, as brave and valiant
an officer az il to be found in the army of
the Potomac. Gen Naglee's pickets ex-
tended across the railroad running parallel
with the Williansburgh road, about mile
to the right to noar the sixth mile post
from Richmond, and 80 on further TO the

Another Letter from ship Island.

We make the following extracts from
an interesting letter received from the
Hospital Stewart of the Seventh Vermont
Regiment, dated Ship Island, May 9th.
From Camp Phelps in Rut-
land to New York we had splendid ride,
and arrived sleepy, hungry, and half dead.
During a portion of the way the cars
moved as fast as person would walk
when in a business hurry. For one |
was glad to step upon the pavement
From the cars we GO sick and myself }
were carried in horse railroad car to
the Aston House, and were furnished with
nice sitting room, which was most ac-
ceptible to those poor fellows, who ought
not to have been so long time without
proper food and rest. We remained
there until called upon by % of the
sons of Vermont to dine at the Park
Barracks. The dinner consisted of bean
soup and bread, cold which was good
enough for me, but rather hard for the
sick ones. Several, not being able to
walk to the barracks, were left at the As
tor House. After our return they were
served in a stylish manner with a splen-
did dinner, really fit TO eat.
On Friday last it was rumored that
the 18th Conn. Regiment was under the
hammar for New Orleans. On Saturday,
as everything was keeping the even
tenor of its way" an order for a detach-
ment of the 7th Vermont was received,
and Immediately executed, and Cos. C,
(Middlebury,) B, (Brandon,) and parts
of Cos. d. Rutland and G, (Cavendish,)
were under weigh by four o'clock, P. NJ
for We have since learned theywent to
garrison the forts on the east side of lake
Ponchartrain.-ED. HERALD to be bet
ter known in the future. The Eighth
Vermont expect to leave tonight. We
all expect to leave this delightful place
every day, and hope we will, for want
to travel. The island looks quite lonely
now, for we can look out of out tents and
behold the water on the northern shore,
whereas the prospect heretofore was hid
den by the tents of the numerous regi-
ments encamped thereon. The two bat
teries attached to the 9Th Vermont have
gone forth on an errand of death or lib
erty, and hope to be heard loudly speak
ing for the latter. y
All expect to 60 somewhere soon, tho
nobody knows when. Quite number of
soldiers are to be discharged from service
because of disability. Who they are, or
when they will return, cannot now be
told.

= The Courier of last week is unu-
sually dull and stupid. 1t will hadrly pay
perusal. We have never known friend
Cain to be so decidedly ,oeak as he is this
week He endeavors to be funny at our
expense, but his wit is coarse and vulgar.
We are really ashamed of him. Because
we showed him to be an ass, few days
ago, he seems to think it very funny to
call us an ass. But that is very coarse
bar-room slang. Anybody can make
mouths at ones sister. The rest of his
paper is filed with articles defending
vallandigham, and other sympathizers
with treason. 1t is dull paper-but it
is noteworthy that Cain goes against
hanging JEFF Davis;-of course he does.
We are tempted to ask the Courier, "Can
a naval ram butt, ioether or no ?"

THE FRENCH MINISTER'S VISIT
AN AUTHENTIC ACCOUNT.

AN AUTHENTIC ACCOUNT.
Washington, May 21.-The following
are the facts relative to Count Mercier's
visit to Richmond
In conversation with Mr.. Seward M.
Mercier expressed regret that he could
not see Richmond and judge for himself
about the views and expectations of the
rebels. Mr.. Seward said there was no
objection on the part of of our Govern
ment to his doing so, and wished that ev-
cry Foreign Minister might go and see
for himself how hopeless the instruction
was. M. MERCER went to Richmond I'M
officially, with no expectation of speaking
for or acting for his Government and COM
promising his relations with our Govern
ment.
The President was consulted previous
to his going and approved of it. When
he returned he called Immediately on Mr..
Seward and afterwards on the President,
communicating frankly the impressions
he received He allowed no one at Rich
mond to say anything to him that he
should not be at liberty to say to Mr.. Sc
ward-and communicated nothing to the
rebels from this Government nor any
thing from them. He he'd no official
communication with any one, nor did he
permit himself to receive official atten-
tons. His whole conduct in the trans
action was discreet, loyal and friendly.

N. P. BANKS,
Mai. Gen. Commanding


Hon. E. NJ Stanton:
The rebels attacked us this morning at
daylight in great forces. Their fooce was
estimated at $4,000, consisting of Ewell's and
Jackson's division.
The fire Of the pickets began with the
light and was followed by the artillery, until
the lines were fully under fire on both sides
The left wing stood firmly, holding its ground
we'll and the right did the same for a time
when two regiments broke lines under fire OF
the enemy.
The right wing fell back and we were or
dered to withdraw, and the troops passed
through town in considerable confusion
They were quickly reformed on the other
side and conducted their march in good Or
der to Martinsburg where they arrived at
2:40 p. m, distance of 22 miles.
Our trains are in advance and will cross
the river in safety. Our entire force engaged
was less than four thousand, consisting of
Gordon's and Donnelly's brigade with two
regiments of cavalry under Gen. Hatch, and
two batteries of artillery.
Our loss was considerable as was that of
the enemy, but cannot now be stated.
We were reinforced by the 18th Maine,
which did good service, and regiment OF
cavalry.
