McClellan took to Fortress Monroe, and the number of reinforcements supplied him up to and including the 25th day of June, 1862.

They marched on Manassas and found thirty-two wooden guns and eleven hundred dead horses. He believed that th

A dispatch from Memphis, dated 6th inst., states that the ram Lioness had arrived there from Vicksburg with dates to 2d inst. The canal being cut across the point of land opposite Vicksburg was nearly completed. A large number of negroes had been collected to work on the canal from the various plantations in the vicinity, and in all cases Government receipts were given for them. Several thousand more were about to be engaged on the work. It is supposed that when the ditch is finished the river will cut a wide channel during high water, forever leaving Vicksburg an inland village. The bombardment has bee

We do not mean, of course, to wink out of sight the serious character of recent events on the Peninsula or to blind ourselves or our readers to the fact of the check our arms have received there. But these ought not to discourage or overwhelm us. On the contrary, they should serve us to new determination and new effort. Safe! [From the Tribune, (Editorial,) July 5.] In this long week of varied feeling, of intense anxiety at one moment, of hope the next, no word so cheering has come to us as that we publish this morning, in a Washington telegram, from the Richmond Examiner. The army is safe! We all felt, whether we said so or not, how much depended on this one point — had the fighting stopped? Had our weary and exhausted troops been able at last to threw back the advancing multitude of over whelming numbers, which had dashed themselves against

nfidence in the Government and its agents. Whatever strengthens this, aids the common cause; whatever and whoever weakens it, inflicts upon that cause a blow which may be fatal. Before Richmond. [From the New York Tribune, (Editorial,) July 4.] The painful suspense of the last few days was, in a measure, relieved yesterday by the intelligence received from Gen. McClellan's army. For nearly a week that army has fought against overpowering numbers, and though compelled to fall bacnd elsewhere in Eastern Virginia, will be disposed of so as to effectually prevent any other northward movements of this rebel, if he be alive, or of his ghost, if he be dead. A day of excitement in New York. [From the New York Tribune, July 4.] Yesterday was a day of intense excitement. It has had few equals in this country. The ambiguous utterances of the morning papers — the sullen silence of the Government — the evident restraint of comment — the ill concealed anxiety of tho<

f; and the army is safe! Terrible as our loss has doubts less been, though we have lost men by thousands, and guns, perhaps, by hundreds, yet we announce the news with gladness, and full of cheer, that the army still presents a bold, unbroken front, and the Confederates have fallen back to throw themselves around their capital for its protection. Under the circumstances, we can ask no better news than this. The situation and its consequences. [From the N. Y. Herald, (Editorial,) July 6th.] General McClellan has failed to take Richmond and has suffered serious losses in men, artillery and warlike materials and stores in his struggle to extricate himself from a position rendered untenable from the heavy reinforcements sent in to the army of the Confederates, and from the very scanty reinforcements to his own.
