lson, as the head of the Committee on Military Affairs in the Senate, occupies an official position in the legislative branch of the Government which the President is bound to respect, and hence the views and suggestions of Mr. Wilson in regard to the management and conduct of the war must command in a liberal degree the confidence of the President, whatever may be the peculiar differences of opinion between these two public agents. Our readers will remember that when the rebel army, in March last, evacuated Manassas, a regular onslaught of the abolition radicals of Congress was made upon Gen. McClellan. He was jeered with the clamor that he had "out camped the rebels;" that he had been frightened all winter by a lot of "quaker guns;" that he had permitted the enemy to slip through his fingers, because he was too much a pro-slavery apologist to believe the "intelligent contrabands" who in season informed him now Johnston was evacuating his Potomac line, that McClellan's army, fi

They are supplied from General McDowell; but thus depleted, McDowell becomes apprehensive of danger and calls for other troops. They are supplied from the army of Gen. Banks, who has thus been pounced upon, cut up, despoiled, and driven out by those watchful rebel guerrillas, Generals Johnson and Ewell. But why was not Gen. Banks reinforced from some other quarter? We answer, that it was because Mr. Senator Wilson, the head of the Military Committee of the Senate, and his Congressional Abolition clique, after the rebel evacuate on of Manassas, brought about the suspension of volunteering; that the hostility of this clique to Gen.

McClellan, to stop recruiting for the army, when fifty thousand would lead to a general engagement in the afternoon. Gen. McClellan disposed of his troops in such a manner as to be prepaocess of advancing may be slow. Thus far the strategy of McClellan has been superb. He has felt his way to the very doors o

That paper says that the United States Ministers in London and Paris had been "told to assure the Governments that plans are being matured for a mitigation of the blockade." The writer entertains no doubt of the sincerity of the intention of the Federal Cabinet in this direction, and states that with the fall of Nhievement, so far as commercial benefits to Europe were to be expected from it. The impression in Manchester, at the latest moment, was to the effect that the fall of New Orleans would bring forward more cotton. The Opinion Nationals of Paris--Prince Napoleon's organ — says that M Mercier's visit visit to Richmond had reference merely to a French tobacco stock. The affair was still, however, the cause of much political speculation in Paris. Count de Persigny had, it was said, be

This is our solution of this unfortunate repulse of General Banks. We trace it to the enmity of Senators Wilson, Trumbull, Sumner and others of that clique in the Senate, and to Thaddeus Stevens, Lovejoy and their abolition brethren of the House; and to their successful tricks and intrigues to break up the army and the plans of Gen. McClellan, to stop recruiting for the army, when fifty thousand more men were needed to secure our conquests in Virginia, and a hundred thousand more to push the rebels speedily out of the State. Let the responsibility then rest where it belongs. We cannot consent that either the President or the Secretary of War shall be made the scapegoat for a

ly conducted and was perfectly successful, with exception of the casualties mentioned above. Last evening I went out on a foraging expedition for the benefit of the faithful horse, and stopped at a fine plantation owned by a widow lady named Crump, who has three sons serving in the rebel army. An able-bodied, considerably bleached out, intelligent contraband, said that his mistress had, "done gone to Richmond last Wednesday, and took along a tight smart lot of slaves;" he was to have gonewoods." Some bottled porter was found in the house, which upon examination by the surgeon was found to have been poisoned. The negro said that on Thursday, the 15th inst., General Johnston and staff were having dinner prepared at the house of a Dr. Crump, near the cross-roads, when the scouts reported the near approach of our forces. The announcement caused a stampede of the dinnerless party. A forward movement was made yesterday, and the Chickahominy river, where it was supposed the ene

mpede of the dinnerless party. A forward movement was made yesterday, and the Chickahominy river, where it was supposed the enemy would make a stand, was passed by our forces without molestation.--The enemy were evidently afraid of a flank movement. Whiskey rations are now served out to the soldiers morning and evening, to counteract the influences of the malaria. Foreign news. The European news by the Kangaroo and Hibernian, telegraphed from Cape Race, is dated to the 16th of May--five days later than our advices by the Scouts. The Canada, at Queenstown and Liverpool; had reported the New Orleans by the Union army, and, her news being subsequently confirmed, the event was very widely commented on by the London journals. The fact produced no influence on the Liverpool cotton market at first, but American descriptions of the staple experienced a decline at the latest date of the Kangaroo.

Late Northern news. Our Northern papers, of the 29th, furnish some additional items of news: The Federal disaster in the Valley--Yankee opinion. [From the New York Herald, May 29.] Where lies the responsibility for the late disastrous repulse of the remnant of the army of General Banks from the great Valley of Virginia. The newspapers of the indignant North, to a considerable extent, are pouring out their vials of wrath upon the head of Secretary Staunton. One of this class of journals, for instance, denounces his "management of the War Department" as "An intolerable nuisance which ought to be abated," while another describes the unfortunate Secretary "an official who possesses patriotism without discretion and enthusiasm without judgment, and who is as ready to exaggerate the terrors of his work to-day as he was to rush upon them yesterday. " But Mr. Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, audacity saddles the whole responsibility in the premises upon the President, who ha
