Sail and steam. --If the old blowhards of a quarter of a century ago could rise from their graves, they would weep and wail over the innovations which steam has introduced in the naval profession. A Rear Admiral of the French Navy, in a late work on the navies of France, truly says that "the employment of steam has done away with much of the hardship of the profession. There is no longer that continual struggle with the elements."--There is, therefore, no longer any necessity for the seamanship which that struggle required and developed, nor that lofty courage and endurance which grow out of hardship and peril. The consequence is that while ships have become more perfect and powerful machines, seamen have deteriorated, and become mere stokers and ferrymen. The South will suffer no injury from this change, because it can build a navy upon the models of existing improvements, and man it without requiring for that purpose thoroughbred sailors, of whom it has very few.

A tribute to Gen. Beauregard. Camp Near Centreville, Nov. 9, 1861. Editors Dispatch.--Gentlemen: In your journal of yesterday I see a card copied from the Whig, from the pen of General Beauregard.

We, who are in the service as privates and non-commissioned officers, have not many opportunities of seeing the daily papers, and thus keeping on the surface of event, we thought not of the wrangling of politicians, but were credulous enough to imagine that those self-sacrificing patriots, estify. But as the representative of the rank and file of this army, I say, without fear of contradiction, that General G. T. Beauregard is our man-- the man of the army. And let politicians beware how they charge him with ought incompatible with hi gallant soldier, pure patriot, and that grand old name, "a gentleman."

Let the Government do its work wholly and unstintingly, and let Bull Run and Manassas testify how we will do ours. General Johnston is regarded in this army as an accomplished soldier, capable of weaving a web of strategy which would defy the combined intellect of the old army to unravel, and as a chivalrous, high-toned gentleman, as his conduct on the 21st of July will testify.

We, who are in the service as privates and non-commissioned officers, have not many opportunities of seeing the daily papers, and thus keeping on the surface of event, we thought not of the wrangling of politicians, but were credulous enough to imagine that those self-sacrificing patriots, who were filling lucrative offices, far out of range and "hearing of the enemy's guns," regarded our General as we regard him — the pride of our army. But reading the card alluded to dispels the illusion. The best efforts of our Government should be directed to but one object — the support of our Generals in the arduous work before them.

The power brought against it was mightier than bayonets, and sentinels challenged in vain; the rain descended, the flood came, and washed away the canal banks — and great was the wash thereof! The election passed off quietly in this county. A very small vote was polled.--This is to be regretted; for it was hoped that every voter remaining in the county would turn out and swell the vote as much as possible for Davis and Stephens, thereby showing that we endorse the administration of the new-born Government. The meagre vote cast by no means indicates the feeling of the people. We all give a hearty approval of the acts of the Executive; and if the Yankees can get any comfort from the meagerness of the vote, and wish to try it on with the hope, of success, predicated on those grounds, they will "not only be deceived, but likewise sucked in."
