General Sherman need not say that he cannot restrain his troops.--If he cannot, he is unfit for his position.

The speech of Captain Winslow, of the Kearsarge, who was lately complimented with a dinner in Philadelphia, will also make pleasant reading for an English breakfast table. The gallant Captain declared it was fitting that the fight should take place where it did, to show that the United States is as invincible upon the sea as upon the land; and wound up with quoting a remark of one of his sailors to a Frenchman--"the Alabama's officers were Americans; her crew were Englishmen that is the reason we sent her to the bottom"--which was received with loud cheers. We understand Captain Winslow to mean by this that Englishmen can be more easily whipped than Confederates.

Commodore Porter has lately made a report of the operations of the monitors and iron-clads in the assault upon Fort Fisher which will attract attention abroad, from the information which it gives of the working of this new class of vessels in a heavy sea and bad weather, as well as their capacities of attack and defence.
