?--that they can take its commendations for anything but insults? Where, except in Hayti, among the subjects of their friend and ally, Solouque, can they find an example to keep them in countenance? Let the public, however, take note of one statement which the Herald makes. We quote its own words: "Before the issue of the journals which contained these false predictions reached us, our five hundred thousand soldiers were encamped at Washington, Baltimore, Fortress Monroe, Cairo, Western Virginia and Missouri, and at our great recruiting stations." We know this statement to be false — utterly false. But when McClellan thinks proper to advance once more into Virginia, let the Herald remember what it now says, and let it not attempt to induce the impression that he failed (as he most assuredly will) from want of sufficient force. We are assured by the Herald that a glorious future is dawning upon the Yankee nation. "The Administration now begins to emulate the energy of the

"Henceforth if we cannot count on victory, we can at least reckon on the avoidance of such humiliations as the affairs of Bull Run and Big Bethel brought on our arms." This means, we presume, that when the Yankees are whipped again they are determined not to throw away their guns, knapsacks, haversacks, shoes and blankets. The Herald then tells us that in April, eightyether you cannot get an opportunity. When our men drive you from the next height, do not run into shelter like the genuine heroes of Ball Run, but support your advanced guard with your whole force. Send on your man McClellan, if you really mean for him to advance. Cease swaggering and lying, and turn to fighting, if you do not wish to retain among the nations the reputation which you earned at Bull Run — that of the most arrant poltroons that ever hid a lily liver under a bullying exterior.

thoroughly that all reports concur in the assurance that if our army had proceeded at any time within a week it could have taken Washington without firing a gun, if the whole Federal force has been exterminated in Missouri, and Ben McCulloch is in full march for St. Louis, it has all been nothing more than a joke on the part of the Lincoln Government, who, until now, would never permit anything earnest or serious to enter into their calculations. At last, however, the glorious affair of Cape Hatteras, which consists in the capture of two sand-banks and 700 men, by a powerful fleet that never came within reach of the batteries on shore, the proclamation of Fremont in Missouri, and the stern discipline of McClellan, which has brought the "Grand Army" into such a state of efficiency that "it is ready for an advance into Virginia," have put an end to the jokes of the Cabinet, which, it is to be presumed, have not taken very well of late.

This means, we presume, that when the Yankees are whipped again they are determined not to throw away their guns, knapsacks, haversacks, shoes and blankets. The Herald then tells us that in April, eighty thousand men marched to the defence of Washington, a palpable refutation of its own lie, to the effect that there were but eighteen thousand at Manassas. It sounds the praise of old Scott, for the infamous subjugation of Maryland, and it then tells us that when this was completed, "the nation, (that is the Yankees,) felt that the capital was safe." Aye ! But did they feel so on the night of the 21st of July? Did they feel so the next day, or the next week? Does it owe its safety, at this day, to anything but the magnanimity of our Generals, who scorned to take advantage of a fallen enemy, when he lay entirely at their mercy?--After the disgraceful rout at Manassas, and the disgraceful scenes that followed hard upon

Their skirmishers drive yours like whipped curs before them whenever they dare to come in their way. You lie in your works like ground-hogs, rooting in the earth for safety ! Afford you an opportunity ! Why, you miserable slave of a Baboon, the Confederate colors are in sight of the Capital at Washington ! Come out if you dare from your dens, and see whether you cannot get an opportunity. When our men drive you from the next height, do not run into shelter like the genuine heroes of Ball Run, but support your advanced guard with your whole force.

s entire strength, from the circumstance of its having at home a body of tillers who were fit for nothing else but to till the soil, whereas the North could not subtract more than a certain portion of its population from agriculture — that the South held in its hands the great maple which commanded the commerce of the world, and which it was impossible to substitute from any quarter — that the South had no cause to dread the rivalry of India, as the New York Times had foolishly asserted. Jeff. Davis and the Southern Government underwent every morning the infliction of that nauseous flattery which seems as natural to the Herald as its slaver is to the boa constrictor, and is about as tolerable to its victim. There were no statesmen like the Southern statesmen — there was no wisdom like the wisdom of the Southern Government.--We were never among the number of those who placed any confidence in the affected zeal of Bennett for the South.
