General Joseph Johnston.

We observe that the intelligent Richmond cor
respondent of the London Morning Herald ex-
presses the fear that Gen Johnston may be in
1uenced in his present position by the popular
clanior He may dismiss all such apprehensions.
Gen Johnston does not hold la any degree of re
spect unenIighteued public opinion. He Is going
TO do just what he thinks best. and will stand
firm as a rock upon the basis of his own judg
ment. And n more solid judgment In the art OF
war no military man Of this day possesses. We
regard him as one Of the most consummate sol
diers whom this great struggle has produced. and
look forward with high and hopeful spirit TO the
future of his greet army. We have watched
him from the beginning. and our admiration OF
him il greater at this hour than when no fell like
thunderbolt upon the columns of the enemy at
Manassas. Gen. Joe. Johnston Is no ordinary
person. either ms soldier OF man, and we have
nm abiding faith that the fact will be demonstra
ted next spring beyond the caviIs Of the most
captious. In the meantime let the critics and
croakcrs Cultivate the virtue Of patience and
charity. Let thin try to form come faint con-
cepton Of their own perfect incompetency to sic
In judgment upon military men, and withhold
their censures til they have facts and results be-

New YoBK, August l8.--The Herald has
the following special from Msvtinsburg Va,
18th. There is much activity here to- night
in consequence Of the reported advance OF
the rebels. Skeddadlers have already COM
menced their Northern movement and came
down the valley bringing various reports
we have information of m engagement ct
Front Royal.
IL Is said that the enemy has been rein
forced by one Division Of Longstreets corps
and two cavalry divisions.
Prisoners are reported to have stated that
the whole rebel army is moving.
There is much excitement in the valley.
It is not supposed here by persons advised
that Early intends leaving the valley per-
manently unless defeated or driven out and
kept out by sending to him fresh troops
is convincing proof to this effect.
The rebels seem to have their very exist
encc in the valley, upon which they keep
up their force to threaten the Potomac line
and they keep large body Of troops in that
region.
The Richmond papers have the follow
ing:
MOBILE, August 11.-Heavy firing is re
ported at Fort Morgan Tuesday and We'd
nesday, and to-day the the telegraph wire
has been cut between the city and Fort Nor
gan.
Two vessels are off Dog river Bar this
gveniEg.
The Bay shores are covered with debris

Large quantities of tar pitch and terpen-
tine has been burned to prevent the enemy
from getting it.

feeling exists.

ments at Deep Bottom the Times's special
says:
Tuesday opened with brilliant prospect
of success. Greggs' cavalry rested Their
right on Charles City road to protect the
right wing of our forces, whose left flank
extends to James river.
The front If our line is only about si1
miles from Richmond.
Lee being thus held cannot prevent tn,
cutting Of "a canal across Dutch Gap, and j
he should attempt to mass his forces OF
either sids Of the river, exposed points or
the opposite side will fall into great danger
Our losses Sunday are estimated at abou
400 killed, wounded and missing. Thos'
Of the enemy somewhat less.
On Monday the loss Of the enemy wa
greater than ours. The firing was mostly
with musketry after we had got on TIN
encmy's flank and turned him, but yester
day morning the artillery on both sides wa
playing rather brishly.
New YORK, Aug. 1s.-The Worlds spec
ial says:
In response to the action Of the rebel au
thorities in sending 600 Union pris ners t
Charleston to be placed under fire, 600 rebe
officers are to be dispatched to that point il
few days. They will receive similar treat
ment to that bestowed upon our prisoners
