Gen. Pope, it is stated, have arrived at West
Point early this morning.
Extracts from Charleston papers about the
battle published in the Mercury, say tAe Fed
erals charged the confederate battery three times
with the bayonet, once without cartridges.
1t mentions that the 10Th New York regiment
was very gallant, and says after three charges
hndlng that the battery was unyieding, "a flank
movement was tried, aud for time threatened
the rebels seriously.
Finally the latter were reinforced ut crittl-

Their own loss was first stated 10 be 40 killed
aud 100 wounded, but later accounts say it Was
heavier.
The rebels say the federals carried off their
wounded, which must have numbered 200 or
300. The account is evidently one sided and
1t will doubtless prove exaggerated as to our
loss and more serious atttir 10 the rebels than
stated in the Mercury.

is reason to believe that battleswill be fought

The End of the Yankee Generals.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, of the Sth
inst, has the following summary of the
fates Of the different Yankee Generals:
Ever since the war began we have been
subjected to one cause of trouble, one
element OF 6iscord, which few. if any,
were wise enough 10 prognosticate. Con-
tentions among Generals. failures in car

commanders and the Government. They

and Johnston's sudden departure from
Winchester, while facing Patterson's ar

numerous than edifying. Fremont, twice
relieved Of important commands, is once
more er route for Washington, to "try,
try again." Stone, suddenly deposed, is
imprisoned. Benham, twice arrested for
not having done what was expected Of
him on the battlefield, or doing 100
much, is deposed from his command and
rank. Mcclellan is superseded by Hal.
leck in the supreme command. Pope,
expressly ordered from the West TO show
his quality in Virginia, Is sent, after fail
ure-from whatever cause--to the North
west to war with the savage. Sherman is
relieved at Port Royal, and Hunter his
successor, returns as all suppose, because
his views and the Presidents do not
agree on an important war topic. At
length Mcclellan is ordered to report at
Trenton, that is, in tho land of nowhere;
Fitz John Porter is brought before court
martial on grave charges; Griffin is also
to be tried, it is said Buell's conduct is
subjected to rigorous inquiry; Pope's let

Rumors have whispered that Burnside
is to be superseded and impicate Gen.
Meigs. These, we may hope are not
true. We shall make no individual COM
ments; let us look at the general fact
What catalogue! To what are such
troubles due? In part to the fact that
when our army sprung into being, like
mysterious growth in single night, Gen
erals were appointed who wore the uni
form. but most of them needed educa
ton; they had no experience in the great
school of commanders; they were by no
means equal TO the task Of at once hand
ling great armies. Due allowance was to
be made; too much should not have been
expected of them, nor should there have
been SO much preliminary eulogy.
