Napoleon once remarked, "show me where the enemy is strongest, and there I will attack them." Now, the victory at Port Royal has not diminished the effective strength of the Confederate army at Manassas, and there is very little question that Gen. McClellan, aware of the vital importance of a blow in Virginia, will, ere long, strike treason to the ground there, where
