We shall hear no mere cf the rc;>:l
navy. The loss Of the Etrrinlac ny ner
dismal suicide was accepted abroad, us VIC
learned ty the adyices Of the City Of Wash
ington, Oh Friday, as the retirement Of
the rebels from the contest by water" but
tie phrase vii! be changed when the ccvs
Of the last ot the naval fights Of this war
falls on English cars, that chroniclel in
another eoluilr, III our Sunday nights dis
patches The tluc jackets Of the Federal
navy have rounded up their work glorious
", and the word "rudrcmc1t" is inarpi-
carllc fror, its bearing Il sense Of vclun-
1ary action. Tic rebel navy exists nc
more, but not by its own act. 1t was
driven under and out Of sight hy the sores
of runishments, and in one Of the stoutcs
encounters in the annals Of naval warfare
The victory We welcome for its mora
effect st home and abroad. Il worthil,
follows in list which demonstrates That III
United States will hereafter sand as q frs
class naval power, and will induce pre1o1
tlonate respect and awe abroad. Nor is tn
work Of our tars left where the shore eyae
rations and surrcndcrs have placed Ii
contest in the field. 1t is cleanly don
and finished, and the account rendered i
rich columns of prize money, or IN sunke
uu,Ss. sorclv battered and riadlcd- It is
little interesting to remember that the rel
els led Us iu irorl-clad vessels, but with o.
later 11o1itor their t.1er1imac CAME to grit
They put ailoat their rams and, giyi1
them that start, we overlook them, and Il
crushing encounters hcfole Memphis to
where the superiority lay.
The work is done, and little moro 7
rnains for our no1,le sailors than to bccon
for time the armed patrols Of our Goa
and rivers, with keen vengeance in sto
for all who shall attempt to Interrupt t
resumption of peaceful commerce. Mo
forward the columns in the field and SO
the last rebel army will join tue lost na
~essia- The scattered work OF p'
;s,,;n- ~. >rrillas on land, and pirates
-rn+a- =r7,, Ia promptly done. In fact
latter no ]orger cx5s4 n. r. 1. s, w

Triyatee1s, sealed them in ho4- ~ 1,o't
shut t1scnl out TO wander helpless,
mort +, port without means or opportun>
TO keep themselves in repairs and stoE
and their part in the rebellion was o.
sufficient to declare their INTENT and
1.rbarity Of their purpose, and then le:
item withoa. sympathy in their spet
taecadencc.
The Federal navy has wrought ever =
.nd clo1iously in this war, from the t
when Dupont opened his guns on
Roya1, to this last fight before HEMP
Tic rat,lcsntkc flag disappears fort
from above the deck Of a war vessel
And when we come 70 study the cnt
4his cjyil war. and marvel how peace $
revisit the jarring scctlons-when tre*
il dumb, aud the traitors all punished,
derive additional assurance that
will be well, from the fact
Of our noble navy many q son OF
South has proved true to the Cnlon'
fur love Of the whole country aud Il
perpetuity has had gallant part IN
victory over its enemies. TIE LIST OF
heroes in this war bears many such NJ
and in our victorious Mississippi Il
were many Southern officers sons Of
nessee and Kentucky and North Car
who knew Only in those that opposed
glorious old hag common enemy, Ut
from whatever SECTION or State. The
the naval fights is Vorthilg located in
ing the broad Mississippi to the vast /
commerce of which it is the natural
mel. and whose peaceful flow will 81
be restored.
