Our eyes are now directed to Mississippi,
where the events of the next few days are now
looked for with most intense anxiety; this Il
| felt throughout this whole army, with referenc,
to the late movements, of General Grant
especially since the taking and destruction ol
Jackeon, Mississippi. The position of the army
is not by any means, as advantageous for Oh
advance as is generally supposed. The season
10 most unquestionably very fine for campaign
ing, but when 1t ia considered that suppliea Of
every kind, forage lor horses, ammunition. and
everything, must be transported, and that done
through an enemy's country, in the face Of an
active and powerful foe. with an army equal II
Rot superior in strength to ours, the difficulties
will be somewhat appreciated
ORGANIZATION OF BRACES ARMY.
The strength of General Bragg's army has
been variously estimated, but perhaps the fol-
lowing ia ss reliable as any estimate of IL that
could be obtained
The Commander. in Chief is General Brsxton
Bragg, of Louisiana
STAFF George w. Brent, Assistant Adjulant
General and Chief Of Staff; George G Garner,
Assistant Adjutant- G eneral.
RIGHT WING-Lieutenant- General Lsuaidas
Polk OF LOuisiana.
Alabama Division-Msjor- General John NJ.
Withers, of Alabama, with four brigades.
Kentucky Division-Major. General John G..
Breckinridge, Of Kentucky, four brigades.
Arkansas INSTRUMENTATION General Patrick
R. Claybourne, Arkansas, four bdgades.
LEFT WNa-Lieutenant General VIM, J..
Hardee, of Georgia, commanding.
Tennessee Division-Msjor, General Frank
Cheatbam, of Tennessee, four brigades.
McConn's Dlvision-Msjo General John
Porter McConn, OF Tennessee, four brigades
Also, an unattached brigade commanded BY
G General John b. jackson, Of Georgia.
CAvALRY-Four brigades of Wheeler's Divis
ion, Major-Ceneral Job Wheeler, of Georgia,
and three or four brlgades in Van Dorn's old
division.
Five divisions of Infantry, 81 brigadss, los
regiments, $4,000 men, suppo,ng 500 to each
regiment; 2 divisions of cavalry, 8 brigades, 40
regiments. $4,000 men, supposing 600 to each
regiment; 70 batteries, aod supposing lbs men
ESQ.
Deduct some 10000, moat probably detached
to Mississippi, and there remains some II, 600
or more effective men in General Bfagg's army,
awaiting our advance at Shelbyville and Tul-
lahoma, with his cavalry in strong force on
either flank.
Whether it, on the whole, would be better
for our army to advance, to remain ttstionary,
or TO march on Nashville, the base Of opera
tons, will depend very much on the result Of
General Grants efforts upon vicksburg. vicks.
burg taken, and bis army able to adSance east,

would be changed.

Spxcur. HATING IN BLoop.-In the midst Of this
terrible war, with the national capital In dan
ger and a neighboring State invaded, the bulls
and bears OF Wall street are still specializing in
gold and stocks ana blood. The stockholders
Of this city, Philadelphia and Washington are
eagerly watching the bloody drama now pro-
crossing around the capital, not because Of any
patriotic interest in the fate Of the country, but
in order to make money out Of the affair, no
matter which way i.may result. 1t is even
stated that some Of the government employees
have come on here to speculate upon informa-
ton which they have obtained from the War
Department In regard 70 the probable issue Of
the present campaign. This is the patriotism
o the nineteenth century. The Wall street
clique is thinking Of nothing but how to make
money, and none of our brokers and bankers
propose to raise money to send on troops tt
repel the invaders. The god Of Wall street u
the golden calf.

IL ENTENTE OOhDlAlE AdAN.-At DAu-
quot given by the Lord Mayor Of London the
other day Lord Palmerston declared that on
all questions Of peace and war, whether In the
5EAst or West, France and England were in per-
feet accord. We should take this as rather an
unfavorabls indication for us did we not recol-
lect that the famous entente corriiale Of Louis
Philippe's time was, like Pandora's box, prolific
of discord. Between the government Of Louis
Napoleon and that Of England there may be q
great show Of friendship; but there can never
be sincerity. The politics of both are diver
gent, and the necessities of the one consti-
eute the opportunities Of the other What
1ver they may assert to the contrary, suspicion
OF each other must be the ever dominant feel
ing. England may profess to be enchanted
with Louis Napoleon's successes in Mexico; but
she is in reality anything but pleased at them.
II France establishes herself there II will give
her wealth OF resources that will enable her
soon to outstrip the commerce of Great Britain.
For this reason England can never be in "per-
feet accord with her in regard to her American
policy. However much the former may desire
to see the Union broken up, she is still more
anxious to keep down the growing power and
commercial prosperity Of France. We there
fore apprehend nothing from this closer draw
ing together Of the affections Of the personali-
ties of the two governments. II It means any
thing 1t lie TO dissimulate some fresh. causes Tor
distrust and jealousy.

generailed. The slippery Tines neither admits
NOR denies, but says chose Of us who knew
what Hooker's movements had been for the last
fortnight found in them some things that were
not admirable, and others that were inexplioa-
ble"
. But the Times, Notwithstanding this knowl-
edge, misled the public, and continued to praise
everything that Hooker did, to the last mo-
ment Now that he is removed, it merely
Iipsinuates that, though he was a very good
corps commander, he was not competent, per-
lhaps, to handle large army. "If 80 it be-"
says the Times, 'that General Hooker has been
removed for good cause, the country will
;cheerfully acquiescc in the removal" Thus it
is that the donkey kicks the dead lion.
The successor Of Hooker-who Is the sixth
commander of the Army Of the Potomac-has
fine opportunity of making himself the man OF
the time. He boasts little, which is one good
sign, and is In striking contrast with the course
of two of bis predecessors in the command.
