Bragg can choose his own battle ground.
THE situation seems very favorable to US,
hut We wait for further news. =
GAscONADE EXTRAORDINARY the
10th day of September-the very day on
which the battle terminating in the rout
of Rosecrans and his army was fought
the New York Herald told its readers
that Meade and Rosecrans were both
moving on the rebel capital, (th's city,
the one through Virginia and the other
through Georgia; that the rebels were
in the utmost terror at the anticipated
success of these movements, which were
to he executed simultaneously; that
Bragg had collected 100, 900 men from
the odds and ends of Joe Johnstons
army, the Vicksburg paroled prisoners,
&c; but that, composed as it is OF such
crude and discordant materials, vt can
not stand day before the disciplined
and victorious legions of Rosecrans. y
Before the newsboys were done distr'bu-
ting the newspaper containing this gas
conade the ''disciplincd legions' OF Rose
Grams were already in full retreat before
this army of ''crude and discordant ma
terials," and twentytfour hours after they
found themselves compelled to take leave
in the night, leaving their killed and
wounded to be buried or nursed by their
enemy The He1uidhas also heard that
Little Rock is in the hands Of its friends,
and from the capture of this insignificant
town it argues that Arkansas and Loui-
siana are entirely subducd, and that
Price is falling back into Texas, Just in

CUES that, if the Administration will
.'hurry up the work and make It's hay
while the sun shines" it may be able to
end the rebellion in two months, which
is all Of the year that is left for cam
paigning purposes; but that if ii does
not hurry up, and make hay" as add
vised, jeff. Davis" may have lease for
another six months. Was ever boasting
SO preposterous.
But the Xerald is not contented with
annihilating JEFF. Davis and his Re-
public. Nothing less will satisfy its
fiery valor than tilt with England and
France combined 1t marshals its troops
and boasts of their qualities, and really,
il there is no mistake. they must be able
to take creation by storm. 1t says, NV c

and appliances unparalleled III the ms
tory of the civilized world" And yet,
after struggle of two years and half.
they have been unable to subdue peo-
pie numbering but one-third of their
population. Any impartial man would
set them down as miserable, cowartlly,
degenerate race. But they are not so
in the estimation of the Herald 1t goes
on to say, 1--WE have an army larger than
could be raised by any Power in Europe,
with the single exception, perhaps, oil
Russia" 1t ought to have added that
10 army in Europe ever has been so often
or so completely logged; but for such an
addition it substitutes the following
.'This army is splendidly disciplined and
equipped, and is armed with the best
and most effective weapons. Ii has
seen service during several cam
paigns, and fought and won battles, COM
pared to which Austerlitz, Waterloo,
Solferino, and Sebastopol were mere
child's play! Prodigious.!, Where
these mighty battles were fought and
where they were won, is mystery
Certainly not on this continent, nor since
the beginning of this war. Within that
time, and upon that arena, it has usually
been the fortune Of that army to be
logged whenever it came in contact with
the Conlederates. We are, however, not
surprised at the enthusiasm of the Herald
when We reflect that in the same article
it calls the captures Of Hilton Head and
New Orleans greater fcats than the de.
strnction Of the Spanish Armada and the
battle Of Nile! After this, ii is not to be
wondered at, that the HeraM should
spread ITSELF in speaking of the iron
ciads, those boosted ministers of Yankee
wrath, which bombarded brick fort for
two months without being able to take
it. Such implements of destruction
must At course be very terrible to John
