Mr.. CHAsE's FINANCIAL PoIICY.--The
Ouebec Chronicl', the organ OF the Cana
dian Government, having bDconie tired Of
incessamiIy predicting the bankruptcy ei
the United States. at length acknowledges
that all its predictions were at fault, aud in
late number says:
The manner in which the Federal govern
ment has pioted the Northern States through
the financial difficulties of the war is not the
least suggestive of the lessons we are called to
study. Public bankruptcy was predleted as an
inevitable consequence Of the enormous exPen-
diture rendered necessary by the conflict. ! ne
London money market, it was said, would De
closed against the Federal administration; no
loan could be negotiated in its behalf; and the
occurrence of general financial collapse was
indicated as a result not far distant. What IS
the fact, however. Why, that the North has
sustained a war outlay almost unprecedented
in amount without evincing sign of cxhaus-
tation. 1t has not been found necessary to
cross the Atlantic in search Of accommodation.
The States have themselves furnished the means
required, and are prepared to furnish more i
more be wanted.

CAsEY's DIVISION AT FAIR OAKs.-Gcu
Mcclellan, ia bis first dispa,ch relative TO
the battle of Fair Oaks, or Seven Pines as
it is called by some correspondents, stated
that Casey's division broke and fed "unac-
countably aud discrediIably;" but the full
accounts Of the battle show that this cell
sure was unmerited. Casey's regiments,
although they were composed Of compara-
lively raw troops. fought with determined
bravery for several hours and held in check
three times their own numbers with the
steadiness of veterans, and thus enabled the
other divisions TO come up and turn the tide
of battle. When they at length broke their
officers ere not able to rally them in time
to be ofany further service during The day,
but il is seldom that raw troops ever can be
rallied after their lines are once broken in
battle. The correspondent of the New York
Herald, in his account Of the battle, thus a.
ludcs to Casey divisions:
1t was now halfpast four. The attack began
shortly after twelve clock, and the battle was
in full fury at two. Thus for three hours and 4
half Gen. Casey, with six thousand raw troops,
had sustained the whole weight of the rebel on
set-an onset made in force at least triple his
own, and with the very oldest regiments of the
Southern army. From Casey's front to the point
of his last resistance it is not half mile, and
it had taken the enemy three hours and half
to advance that half mile. Thus Casey had stood
in the way to some purpose. lie had given the
enemy three hours and half OF hard night; ne
had lost by casualties nearly every fourth man
that he had in the hcld-a large per centage.
He had lost many of his best officers, including
his gallant and capable Chief of Artillery, Col.
Bailey, and now at last he was compelled, with
heavy heart, to relinquish the unequal stiug-
gle. Let those who are disposed to speak OF
how Casey gave way remember exactly what
Casey did.

New PROGRAMME OF THE REBELs.-A
Chicago dispatch gives the following from
the Memphis Avalanche of July Sd:
We understand from well informed sources
South, that the leaders Of the Southern move
ment have determined on new programme.
1t is said that the new policy is to fight as long
as it is possible to do so, but when they can do
so no longer, instead Of surrandering and hav-
ing their property con6scated and themselves
disfranchised, the leaders will make a direct
proposition to either France or England to be
come colony or appendagc. 1t is further said
that the Southern leaders prefer, il the alterna-
tive is forced upon them, to become subjects Of
Napoleon. This may be reason why Napol-
con is engaged with cOlonizing schemes in Mex
leo. We give the above as the probable-nayi
almost certain-pOlicy Of the Confederate lead
ers, il they should be driven to the wall. We
have good reason for the belief that it is then
solemnly declared policy in the emergency sup
posed.

PRoGREss OF OUR IRON-CLAD FLEET
Three large and splendid impregnable war
steamers, on the plan Of the Ericsson's MoRS-
tor, are nearing completion in this city. The
builder is Thomas +. Rowland. These vessels
will be finished OH the stocks, and they are to
be launced about the first Of August. Three
other boats of the same kind are building at
Boston, Mass, two at Chester, Pa, and one at
Wilmington, Dell making nine in all. In ADJ
dition to these. the government is building sew
eral other iron-clad vessels of the strongest
character, so that we shall soon be in posses
sion Of an iron-clad fleet that will be aSle to
compete with any of the naval powers of the
world. 1t will not be long before every haTeoF
and river of rebeldom will be fully commanded
by these terrible messengers of destruction.
With all the vital points and avenues of their

cessionists will at best have very brief and
