r: The silly talk of the New England manufacturers, that the agricultural interest paid but a small proportion of the tax, was unworthy of the Senate. The fact is, this who has been a godsend to the people of New England. Protected by an outrageous tariff from all foreign competition, they have had a rich harvest since the war commenced. There is not a manufacturing company in all New England that will not realize from ten to thirty per cent on its capital for the year ending the 1st of June. This is not confined to any one branch of industry, but includes all branches of manufacture. In the sale of cotton fabrics they have now a monopoly, and for twenty years there has not been such an amount of work done as has been done during the year just closed. The advantages reaped by New England from the war are not confined to the mere profits in dollars and cents upon the vast supplies it has sold, but it has enjoyed the more than equal advantage of having had full employment in i

nk fit to take, that was a matter for their discussion; but he was persuaded that there was not a man in England who would not show the feeling so well expressed by Sir James Walsh and Mr. Gregory. The motion was then agreed to. Latest dispatches The latest dispatches, dated at London and Liverpool on the 14th June, say: The steamer Scotia's advices of two days fighting at Richmond were eagerly canvassed on Change in Liverpool to-day. There has been no time for newspaper comments as yet. The news by the Scotia has no apparent effect on American securities or cotton. The advance in the latter to-day was caused by the ministerial refutation of the mediation rumors. The city article of the London Times again speculates on the impending financial crisis in America, regarding it, sooner or later, as inevitable. It is estimated that the cotton throughout England on the 1st of June was 428,000 bales, against 1,645,000 at the same date last year.

as we learn from a member of the 18th, Colonel Withers's regiment. It behaved with more than its usual gallantry. We have not been able to understand the exact number of wounded and killed in either the 8th, 18th, 19th, or 28th regiments composing it; but our informant, who is a member of the 18th, represents it as necessarily very large. Among the wounded is Adjutant McCulloch of the 18th, who has distinguished himself without being injured on the fields of Manassas, Williamsburg, the 1st of June, on Friday last, and seemed to bear a charmed life. He fell wounded most painfully in the arm. So cut up is this regiment by the four battles in which it has been engaged that it is now commanded by Captain Holland, of the Danville Blues, the second ranking captain in the regiment. Col. R. E. Withers. The many friends of this gallant officer will be glad to learn that well-grounded hopes of his recovery are entertained. He received three wounds--two of them slight, and the other

nded, but in the thorough and remeddess defeat of a movement, skillfully conceived, vigorously executed, and which had every reasonable promise of, success. The country is impatielit for another battle. Unless I am greatly nustaken, it will not have long to wait, though a day seems long, I am well aware, to an enger and unrefleeting public. I think it not at all unlikely that, if our army could have followed the rebels in full force into Richmond, after their repulse on Sunday, the 1st of June, the city might have fallen into our hands. But this was physically impossible. Only a portion of our forces — quite inadequate for such an enterprise — had crossed the Chickahominy; that portion had been most seriously weakened by the two days battle: there were but two or three bridges then constructed which were available for the transit of troops, and even those were swept away the next day by the terrible storm which followed the battle.--That engagement, moreover, disclosed some fa

Lates Fale Embode.by the "City of Baltimore." the War in America.British Opinion of the campaign on the Peninsula. &c., &c., &c., &c. The London Journals indulge in a variety of comments upon the struggle before Richmond on the first of May and the 1st of June some as a Federal victory, others as a drawn battles, with others again as a success for the Confederates. The London Times, in its consumption, then it must be very hard for a Confederates-General to win in the Northern States. In memories of the first day's fight, the Confederate and half a mile of the Federal battle field nineteen guns, and all the baggage, and yesterday lost the victory. There Federal General's dispatch, army in the Federal newspapers, all agree, that the second day's fight was a hard struggle, but result in much less circumstantially stated in their general officer's report. The London Times thinks it ... day drawn battle. The fight as the .... brought about the of troops had been t

One hundred dollars reward. --Ranaway from my factory in Danville, on Sunday, June 1st, my negro man Thornton, who calls himself Thornton Gregory. It is supposed that he will attempt to get to Richmond. I will give the above reward on his delivery to me in Danville, or to Mr. Coleman Wortham in Richmond. Thornton is of black complexion, about five feet ten inches high, spare make; is a boy of good countenance. He had on when he left dark pants and coat and a light vest. jy 8--10t* James Thomas, Jr.
