The Monroe Doctrine.

The formal reafirmation of the Monroe
doctrine, so to speak, in the House of
Representatives, yesterday, by unanimous
vote will be likely to create something of
breeze in Lo, don and Paris-but especi..
ally in Paris. The news will go out by the
steamer leaving this port on Wednesday
We have no idea that the action of Con-
gress in this matter will nave the slightest
effect in restraining the ambitious projects
of the Emperor of the French in Mexico 1t
will not induce his man Friday, Prince
Macmillan, to stay at home. 1t certainly
will not pre- vent the coronation II that
worthy, in the halls of the Montezumas, in
the course of the coming summer; for the
fact is, armies and heets-big guns, big
ships, and an abundance of gunpowder-are
the only "acts of Congress- these crowned
heads learn to respect. If we have these
We can compel them to respect us; if We
have them not, we but "resolve" in Wash
ington, in vain. s.
The surest way to maintain the Monroe
doctrine,-nay, the only way, to keep the
crowned heads away from this continent
is to bring our rebellion to close, by every
honorable means as soon as possible, and
thereby restore peace and fraternity at
home. Nothing else will do In Union
only is there strengh-and the despotisms
of the Old World, are not in the habit of
respecting any Republic, or any Govern
ment, that is not sure to be thus strong.

Gen. Sickles, in speaking lately at Albany
noted that the Army was never as strong
90 nor in as good condition as at present.
We hope much from the completeness of the
military organizations, and trust the best
anticipations of the bitter enemies of Nc
Ceilsn will not be disappointed in regard
Pa. to military success. In 1861, as the World
very well says:
2gssg Mcclellan had an army and its material
to create; Grants army is already in Che
- Sc Z kfisld and fully equipped. McClellan's army
from generals to privates, was mass OF
b-9 raw recruits with every thing to learn while
Grants are veterans, and fit for any military
,i duty. Mcclellan had to organize the whole
.a machinery of supplying an army; yet Grant
.-I has only to give the order and everything
needful for million of soldiers could reach
- him in week. McClean's army was want
,.rol ing in numbers, discipline clothing, equip
a,i. ments, arms, everything in iacr, while
r,s Grants army wants for nothing. Yet dur
ing the months of November and December
lA.. of 1861, and January and February 1862,
the country rang with the clamors of the
radical, against the TAI lness of Gen. Nc
Cellau. BUT nov Mt whisper against
'.' Gen. Grant Undr the pressure Of these
people, 1inco n per.mtorily ordered Gen.
Mcclellan to advance on the 22d of Febru

and no signs of an immediate movement.

We have no doubt that Gen. Grant is do
ing the best he can, but it is impossible no.
to contrast the good treatment he receives

upon Gen. Mcclellan two years and hall
