arrived out On the 18th, and their news was
received with great interest. The fighting be-
fore Richmond was eagerly canyassed. Some
Journals regard it as = great reverse for the
North, aud reproach the American Govern
ment for treating it in any other light. Others
contend that General Mcclellan bus sustained
20 serious disaster. and ia practically nearer
Richmond and may congratulate himself on
thr war. Hopes are freely expressed that
more pacific councils viii soon prevail at
Washington.
The London Tsnes is particularly bitter aud
sarcastic, and treats the matter as decided
rebel victory. It thinks that there are good
evidences in the North that the beginning Of
the end is not far of. In another article it
denounces the insolence Of Gen. Butler in hfs
Intercourse with foreign consnls, and says that
is not the way to conciliate ueutrals and supe'
1iors. He should consider whether he Is not
doing more harm than good to the Federal
cause.

The people are thoroughly alive to the
war and its demands. They have no res ..
ervation OF men OF money to make Three
hundred thousand men are called fol.
There is general feeling that the number
should haSe been half million. These
mcn must be forthcoming. The people,
both by Individual and public action,
have offered liberal bouu,ies aud
to these enlistments are responding. But
let us not deceive ourselves. The summer
must rot be passed in inaction- It will not
do to spend millions Of money upon in
complete organizations Of regiments aud
companies, continued in our home camps
far into the fall. Every man Of the new
call should be in the field IN early autumn.
At present rate Of enrolment this cannot
be done What is needed is something that
shall give spur to enllstments; which
should remind volunteers that there is &
limit fixed. danitestlY this will be gained
by the announcement that after given
