. What did I hear to-day as coming from the Commander-in Chief of the United States forces--from Gen. McClellan? That he dare not fight on the Potomac. So that we shall have no more battles, I trust, this fall. We have now got in the field some five hundred thousand men, who have congregated about Washington and vicinity, and this array has to be supported at an expense of two millions and a half a day, and yet we are to have no battles this fall. Why? Because the Commander-in-Chief said he dare not fight. Now, gentlemen, what is the English of all this?

A dumb Lever. At the time that Francis I., of France, was taken prisoner at the battle of Paris, one of his officers, the valorous Chevalter Beauregard, smitten by the charms of an Italian lady named Aurelfa, of a noble family, declared his passion to her. Aurelia, although she was flattered by the declaration, refused his, pretensions, on the ground of the levity of the French character and their national indiscretion. The extreme violence of the Chevalier's love urged him to propose to the lady to put his constancy to any proof she should think proper. Amelia accepted the proposition, and engaged to marry him if he would consent to remain dumb for six months. The Chevaller promised, and from that moment never opened his lips. He returned to Paris among his friends and relations, who lamented the singular infirmity he had brought with him from the army. Beauregard expressed only by signs. Physicians were sent for, but he refused their assistance. The captive k
