Coming to Richmond. The first detachment of Scott's army, which was to have arrived in Richmond on the 29th of July, was, after all, only three days behind time. Among them are a part of the Zouaves, whose regiment was annihilated in the late battle, and whose old Colonel, Ellsworth, was killed by the patriot Jackson.

gh it must be borne in mind that the Federeralists have since met with a disastrous reverse: Scott's Plan of operations. The following plan of the campaign, on the part of the Federal authorr, and by land through Kentucky to meet Gen. McClellan at that place. The great object of Gen. Scott is to occupy Richmond and Memphis for two objects — he as a basis for future winter operationsnorthern ports, and thereby secure the peace of those countries. We have no doubt such is Gen. Scott's of operations — necessarily so. Gen. McClellan can do no more good in Virginia. Gen. Fremon ascertained that the rebel forces number about thirty-eight thousand in and about Manassas. Gen. Scott received this information to-day, and was asked by a member of Congress what was the strength f the Union force? "It is enough," was the iconic reply of the General. Turning the subject, Gen. Scott went on to pay Congress a compliment for the handsome and prompt manner in which it had voted
