From our army. No definite intelligence from our army was received yesterday through the usual channels of information. Baltimore papers, of the 9th, say that our cavalry was foraging in Pennsylvania. We learn that our commissary finds no difficulty in procuring bacon at 10 cents per pound in Maryland for Confederate money, and it is stated that Gen. Lee has intimated that no more stores need be sent him.

for it as attentive perusal The summer campaign which was to have given us the rebel capital, has come to a disastrous end Richmond is relieved, and Washington is besieged. That magnificent army, organized and drilled with so much care by McClellan a year ago, repulsed first on the Peninsula, has been again repulsed in its advance upon Richmond from the North, and now seeks safety for itself behind the forts which line the Potomac Disguise it as we may, the Union arms have been repeatedlyoverrides all others, and brands them as inferior. We all hope that all this is to be changed; but so we have been hoping for the whole year past. The very next step was always to turn the tide. We were to have "no more Bull Runs, " when McClellan took command. The enemy was to be "driven to the wall" after he had evacuated Yorktown.--The army of the Potomac, it was declared, shall enter Richmond, after it had suffered defeat behind its own fortifications. And there were to be no more
no ground for predicting better results so long as we employ the same means. We have the same Generals, the same policy, the same Government, the same President, and the same Cabinet as we have had hitherto. We enter upon the future under the same auspices precisely which have presided over our past disasters. What possible reason, then, have we to expect a change? The entire responsibility for all these calamities rests upon the Government — simply because all the power is in its hands. Grant that many of our commanding Generals are incompetent — that they waste in personal wrangling energy that should be given to the cause — that they are weak, irresolute, incapable, and therefore unsuccessful — the Government is responsible for their failures, because it has the power to displace them. A General may fail once through his own fault; if he fails a second time the fault rests with those who kept him there. War is no time for elaborate experiments, or for patching up shattered r

We were to have "no more Bull Runs, " when McClellan took command. The enemy was to be "driven to the wall" after he had evacuated Yorktown.--The army of the Potomac, it was declared, shall enter Richmond, after it had suffered defeat behind its own fortifications. And there were to be no more retreats on our side, after Pope took the lead toward the rebel capital. Yet, in spite of all these assurances, made with confidence, and eagerly welcomed by the credulous country, our armies are besieged, but all "safe" in the Potomac forts. Who can say that the tide of disaster has yet been stayed! What is there to turn it? We have fresh men in the field — but so we had before. Possibly the enemy cannot take the forts — and, possibly knowing that fact, they will not try. But if we can judge the future from the past, t
the same practical result can be achieved without separation. Affairs at New Orleans — the town BecomingToo Hot for Picayune. The last advices from New Orleans say an attack on Carrolton, five miles from that city, was daily expected. The old Confederate defensive works were being strengthened by the Federals to resist an attack. The guerrillas come daily to Algiers across the river from New Orleans. A Northern paper, of the 6th, says: Three days before the steamer left Gen. Butler dispatched a company of soldiers to make a reconnaissance beyond Algiers. The troops left early in the morning in the train, and after proceeding a short distance rebel pickets were seen advancing — The train was stopped and the troops alighted and an advance was ordered to feel their way. While engaged in this work a large force of guerrillas rushed from the woods, where they were previously imperceptible, and fired, killing and wounding our pickets before they had time to exchange bull
due them utterly or they will absolutely overcome us. After sixteen months of war they are flushed with hope and confidence; but their purpose is no stronger now than ever. They have always meant conquest of the North. They hoped it would come by peaceable secession, and then a peaceable surrender of the North under the name of reconstruction. But they believe now that the same practical result can be achieved without separation. Affairs at New Orleans — the town BecomingToo Hot for Picayune.

ve driven our troops back to the precise position they held after the battle of Bull Run more than one year ago. Our Generals do not seem to be aware whether they intend to attack us there, or push forward on some other time of operations. One thing may be deemed certain — they will not sit down in front of Washington and attempt to reduce it by siege.--They will either attempt a flank movement upon it, or what seems to us still more likely, they will push a powerful column directly into Pennsylvania and strike a blow at the Union cause on loyal soil. There is a class of public men who think it highly unwise to admit that we have suffered any serious reverses. They have copious explanations of the apparent checks our forces have sustained, and abundant assurances that they are all to be redeemed in the immediate future. We regret that we cannot share their credulous confidence. All their explanations cannot change this fact, that wherever we have met the rebels — whether behin
