GEN. DRRcKINRIDE.- This gallant GEN
eral, whose manly form was as conspicu-
Gus among the Southern Chieftains in tho
bloody battles of Shiloh, Murireesboro'
and Chickamauga, as was ever that OF
Harry of Navarro among his plumed
knights, was unhorsed and ten porarily
disabled in the fight on Friday. BY the
fall of his faithful charger, that was ;a
stantly killed, his left leg, we are sorry
to learn, was temporarily disabled. II is
cheering, however, to know that in few
days he will be again in his saddle, ready
to lead his veteran division to victory
Brcckinridae came not into the army an
unknown kuight, with visor down, but as
the representative of nearly the united
electoral vote of the Southern States in
the last Presidential contest under the
old Union. Hence, the eyes Of the neo-
Die have ever been upon. him, and he has
vet 10 disappcint their expectations. Sir
Walter Scott would have been better
poet had he not been SO great a novelist.
and Gen. Breckinridge would already
have gained more Fenown as a warrior
had he not previously attained so high
position as statesman. But, indeDen.
dent OF this, in the estimation Of our pen-
pie, he has achieved much, and with the
continued protection OF merciiul Prov
idence will. as the war continues, do
more, so that when il closes land the end
seems not distant, the brave KentuclSiap
will appear prominent among the ccnirs,
group of the heroes that led the uncon
querable legions who gained our ind

bottoms Bridge is three miles lower
down The Chickahominy than the point
at which the railroad crosses that stream,
and is some seven or eight miles f-om
Cold Harbor, the battle field of Friday.
Mcclellan bridge is some three miles
above the railroad bridge. TO these three
points the indications are that Grant is at
tsmpting to force his way. He was de-
feated on Friday at Cold Harbor, and il
he does not renew the effort on thesam
field soon, the probability is he will seek
10 accomplish his purpose by making a
wide circuit around our right flank by The
road leading TO Taylorsyiile in New Kent.
In case he should fail to get to Butler, the
latter may move to his assistance by the
road just mentioned.

NAVY FAILUaEs. Oar navy, which, dur
irg The last three years, has cost such an
ifcalculablc amount OF money, appears
to be aring badly at the hands of the
rebels, who are expected to prove utterly
poweiless upon the water. They have
destroyed three Of our war vessels in
James river; in the inland waters of
North Carolina rebel RAM that cost not
more than $4,000 has proved an over
match for seven Of Our best gunboats; at
Wilmington they have brought out 4
whole fleet, including one iron clad, on
an experimental trip, directly by our.
blockading fleet in Red river they have
made havoc Of a good many Of our YES.
sells, including one ortwo gurboais; and
atCharleston and Mobile they have fleets
Of armed vessels which may soon prove
damaging or even destructive TO the
blocladers.
We cannot help thinking, in view Of al
things that the Navy Department has
been managed by its present head long
enough. Ever since the fight between
the first Monitor and the Merimac, be
has monitor upon the brain-no, The
skull. There is not one Of our monitors
in which we should have confidence If
she were to be attacked by ono OF the
most powerful Of the rebel rams Louis
