Our CAVALRY FoRcEs.-The recent great
battle between General Pleasantons cavalry
forces and those of the rebel Stuart, in which
the former were victorious goes to prove the
superiority of that branch of our service. It
was supposed by the rebels that their cavalry
was able to defeat ours under any circum-
stances; the repulse of their Wanted General
Stuart will dispel the illusion 1t must be
evident that were our cavalry forces tripled we
could soon put an end to the raids Of the rebels,
and in fact penetrate into regions in the South
which as yet have not suffered from the effects
Of the war; Had we, say fifty thousand cavalry,
under the command Of such officers as Pleas
anton, Buford, Gregg, Fitzpatrick, the dashing
English baronet Sir Percy Wyndham, Stahl and
Grierson, we could soon show to the world that
Northerners make as good cavalry as the rebels
fact which would be proved to the great dis
comAture Of the latter. They from the first
understood the utility Of large cavalry force.
1t was, owing to this foresight, that they were
enabled to commit 50 many depredations upon
our soil. Our administration has seemed I'M
willing to take the lesson taught them by the
euCCeSoIul Tbnlo VI Tue IeuekS, Out INV, tuut OuI
own forces are proving the great efficiency Of
this branch Of the service, we may reasonably
look for large increase Of our cavalry.
With fifty thousand mounted men we could
prevent the rebels from making those captures
Of horses which give them the opportunity or
recruiting their broken down cavalry, and as a
speedy result the effectiveness Of this rebel arm
would soon be impaired. We should hear no
more Of such daring raids as they are in the
habit Of making II they were aware that an
overwhelming force Of cavalry was ever ready
to swoop down upon them should they dare in
wade our soil. We could also then cut to pieces
the enemy when in retreat. In fact, the need Of
large cavalry force is so imperative that the
War Department should see to Its imme-
date enrolment. There are officers, men and
horses enough. The government could easily
raise cavalry force Of one hundred thousand;
there should be no delay in this matter. By
all means let us have an overwhelming cavalry
force.

4 PROSECUTION OF THE NEW6PAPERS.-le 10
announced that 1t Is the intention Of the Secre-
tary Of War to prosecute, under the recent
act, Of Congress, all newspapers that have
copied an article originally published by the
Philadelphia Inquirer, disclosing the positions
Of the several corps Of the Army Of the Poto-
mac. That is right. Mr.. Stanton is at last
beginning to do what he ought to have done at
first. He falls back upon the law when he
finds despotic force will not answer. It is a
slight symptom Of returning sanity BY all
means let all offending newspapers be prose-
cuted according to law. And, as the telegraphic
communication in question has appeared in
every journal in the United States the Secretary
of War will have his hands full for the next two
years, particularly as the prosecuted papers
will have strong defence in the fact that the
despatch was published with the permission
and sanction Of the military censor, and conse-
quently the official sanction of the War Depart.
ment. The subordinate officials of Mr.. Stanton
ought TO be prosecuted as accessories. By his
direction the censors undertake to superintend
whatever comes by telegraph, and to prohibit
what is contraband. Consequently what they
do not prohibit they sanction. But it seems
that they are SO unfit for their positions that
they strain at a gnat while they swallow a
camel. They make erasures and corrections
which are frivolous and absurd, while they
sometimes, as In the case of the Philadelphia
Inquirer, permit what is vital to escape them.
If there are to be censors, let MS have censors
| who know the business, and have at least q
| little common sense.

How .MnR0Y WAS SURPRIsEp.-H appetN
from correspondent of one of the Richmond
papers that having first occupied every road
that approached Winchester, Ewell made a
road leaving the valley turnpike near Kerns-
town, and stretching across the ROmney road,
and for six miles further on, bearing towards
the Martinsburg road. BY this means he led q
portion OF his army half way round the town.
and attacked Milroy on the flank and ress. The
writer says "thc surprise was complete" Mil
roy told the President last winter that if he
wanted military success he must get rid of West
Point officers But could any West Point officer
behave so badly as this. suffering himself to be
completely surprised, and then running away
without a decent eight, and causing nearly his
whole command to be captured outside the
Notifications, while he left his wife and daugh-
ter in the hands of the rebels one Of whose
journals urges the criminal prosecution Of the
former for having in hes possession dresses be-
longing to Virginia ladies, which, It is alleged,
General Milroy captured and gave her. See an
article from an unchlvalrous Richmond paper,
which we copy elsewhere. It is added by
another journal that the reason of Milroy max
ing such precipitate retreat was the fear of
execution in the event Of his being taken pris-
oner, as reward had been offered by the Con-
federates for his capture, in consequence OF dep
relations upon unofsendng citizens in West
ern Virginia. How Is it possible for success to
be achieved with such tools! Why IL be not al
once brought to account by tho War Depart
ment for the shameful loss Of his posts Why
does not General Schenck place him under ar
rest and have him tried by court martial

amendment the bill UNDERWRITING persons for
the suspension OF the writ OF habeas corpus
Mr.. Feesenden called up the bill making ap-
preparations for the support OF the Military
Academy at West Point.
Mr.: Wade was opposed to the bill and BE-
lisred the academy had been het-bed OF seces
sion, and had there been no West Pslnt there
would have been no rebellion. The officers
from that school be believed were an obsruc-
ton the army.
Mr.. Wilson thought disleyalty could not b
charged against w est Point. About $50 officers
had remained loyal, 10 from the Southern and
10 from Northern Statc- had resigned. l35 from
slavehoiding states, 50 from seeded states had

Mr.. Nesmith thought that an Institution
which had educated such men as Winthrop,

loyalty.
