None of our readers can have failed
to observe the lamentable mortality
among the general officers Of our army
in the recent conflict in Virginia, Al
least twelve well known Major and
Brigadier Generals have been killed,
wounded or captured. By reason of this
fact some anxiety has been expressed
lest these continued losses should
cripple the operations Of the army, and
interfere with its successful working In
view, however, of the great surplus OF
generals in our service, there need
never be any lack in that respect, and
a fresh supply can be sent down by
every train if necessary. Tho reserve
army, for example, organized al Wash
ingtOn under General Crittenden, and
now going forward 10 reinforce Grant,
carries with it, in command Of brig
aides, no less than five capable generals
Tyler, Lockwood, Roberts, Grose and
De Trobriand We have all over the
north able generals, who have had eS-
perience in this war, and who are now
not in active service.
But General Grant seems 10 have a
shrewd way of relieving himself Of the
difficulty, as is illustrated by his dis
position Of Robinson division when ii
had lost all its generals. Finding the
division much reduced in numbers he
broke il up and distributed the regi-
ments among other depleted divisions
This simple and easy method gets rid
of superfluous officers, and at the same
time raises several divisions TO an eff
cient standard which were previously
very weak. Grant, therefore, will have
enough generals left to manage his
men. and when more are needed, they
will be sent 10 him with fresh reinforce
ments, as the government Is now doing
He forms his officers sunder his own
system, and as his campaigns prove, he
does it Well-Norh Amcrican

Workers to crack. When the Grand
Gulf left New York, February 23d. the
Conqueror laid at Marston a Powers
coal yard loading coal Her log shows
her sailing for Matanzas, her partial
unlading; thence to Nassau. y. p.
We should ike to know what has be-
came of that coal after reackiag Ma
tanzas and Nassau, we hazard an opin-
ion (H01,gh it is asserted that a sailor
has no right to think), that the loval
and patriotic Individual who shipped
anthracite coal to a neutral port, fre-
quented by the Confederates and
their allies, knew the destination of
the ship before she left the wharf in
New York. Her sale and changes of
name is so plainly traitorous, that if the
overlooks such a transac-
ton, there will be no Justice IN the
future in crying out against England.
Much has been said and written in
regard to the negligence and short
sightedness of our Secretary of the Ma
Wy. Such aspersions are either from
Ignorance or from wilful maliciousness,
for it is notorious fact that many a
vessel which has been able to steam
faster than the average of blockade
runners and English built boats, when
in the merchant service, has, when
bought by Department and transferred
to the Navy, at once fallen off in speed
from one to three knots. This certain
ly cannot be the fault of the Secretary
or his associates, nor of the builders Of
the boat; for if those under him had
been as faithful to the public interest
in handling their vessels as he has
been in procuring them, blockade run
ners would long since have been scar
Ger. Such, however, we are happy to
state, has not been the fate of the
Grand Gulf
This vessel was built in 1868, by
Messrs. c. Il r. Poillon, is about one
thousand and two hundred tons, carries
a battery Of eight-inch guns, two thirty
Founders and one hundred FOUNDER
ParrOtt was a fast vessel before she en-
tered the Navy, and is a fast vessel now.
Her prizes, the Banshee, the Mary Anna,
and the Young Republic, attest the
truth Of this statement And the value
of those prizes would pay for the Grand
Gulf half dozen times over. We can
not award too much praise to our senior
engineer, Mr.. George W Shank, of your
city, whose loyalty to his country, whose
untiring zeal in the service, and whose
unceasing care of an engine at times
strainedtO her utmost, merit the thanks
Cor appreciation of the Department.

Night Attack by the Rebel IrOR-Clad
North Carolina.

Orr NEw INLET, Y. C. May I, 1S64-On
the night of the 9th lust, az halfpast
seven clock, the rebel iron-clad North
Carolina came out under cover Of the
darkness, and attacked the United
States steamer Nansemond, with the
evident purpose Of running her down.
The intention was discerned in time to
avoid her, but we narrowly escaped
being injured from her shot and shell
The NansemOnd fired several shots st
her, but owing TO the light ca
hbre other guns they had no effect on
the rebel irOn-clad Our vessels made
signals to the feet of approaching
danger. Several vessels. whose station
was convenient, stood for the scene.
thinking that il was q blockade run
ner trying to escape out
Anime p. n the steamer britannia
saw her and opened fire upon her,
which the rebel iron-clad returned,
without however, inflicting any damage
to the Britannia The night was very
dark, and we could not see a greater
distance than fifty yards off At day
light the rebel Monitor was discovered
BY the steamer Howqua, four and three
quarter miles of shore, close by, and
steering direct for her. The latter i'm
mediately opened fre, striking her
four times, thel shot glancing oil her
ike peas. One shell from the iron
clad ricohetted and passed through the
smokestaek of the Howqua. At day
light, the whole of the fleet coming up
to the scene ofactiOn, the iron-clad put
for the bar as fast as possible, accompa-
MED by four wooden vessels, all armed
with heavy guns. The rebels received
a hot salutation from Fort Fisher a.
theypassed.
The wooden vessels which accOmpa-
MED her out, no doubt, wereintended 10
tow her captures to Wilmington; but l
am happy to state that they returned
disappointed, and without inflicting any
damage, comparatively speaking to any
OF the feet of small gunbOats. / sup
pose the attack will be renewed tonight,
or perhaps they viii try their fortuue
on the Western bar, and / believe they
will meet with no better success. The
North Carolina has FIVE guns IN all IN
side her roof, and to al appearance is a
very formidable war vessel She has
one gun on each end of the roof, and
three in midships; the latter cau be
worked on either side. The guns on
the bow and stern can be used as broad
sides, bringing at one discharge FIVE
guns on a side if necessary.
The iron-clad Raleigh is aground in
the river a little above Fort Fisher, and
no doubt will get off with the next high
tides The two vessels were intended
to come cut together, and if they had a
great deal of disaster might have re
suited to our fleet, consisting at present
of but a small class Of vessels, with one
exception, and she was ten miles of du-
ring the attack, and consequently did
not come into the station until the day
was well advanced, and the iron-clad
inside Of Cape Fear river, foiled in her
attempt

Q, NJ. DEPARrMEST-Ws made q short
visit yesterday to the stables Of the Quar-
iermaster's Department, located at the
upper end of Water Street, and we're sur
prissd at their great extent and greatly
pleased With the neat and excellent
manner in which they are kept.
The grounds are quite extensive, and
are very judieiOusly arranged, and are
occupied by stables sufficient to accom-
modatc about 500 horses, with corn.
cribs, hay houses, quarters for the men,
&c, SC. Also, large lots for cattle and
mules, of both of which the Quarter,
master has large number on hand,
from which be is shipping daily. Every
thing indicates marks Of the best of o.
der and discipline, and we doubt if any
QuarternAstsr' Departmental the Who'll,
country is better conducted, or kept il
better order.
We had no idea Of the vast amount o
business transacted by the eommandan
Of the post, Capt Ehrman, until we visit
ed the stables, warehouses, &c, in an
around the city.

10 the President as follows:
Mr.. PresideHt, | have the honor Of

assured we are aiding in rejoicing to
the proud position Of President Of the
United States one so highly worthy Of it;
one among not the least of whose claims
is that be was the emancipation Of four
million Of bondmen.
