trust in princes. Nor is this all. The South, from its own experience of war, might be disposed not much to censure Great Britain for avoiding a dire alternative which has already entailed upon her an enormous national debt and national and indivil distress beyond computation. But it has become painfully evident to reflecting men in the South that the policy of Great Britain in this contest is impartial not so much in friendship as in enmity; that it seeks with equal regards the mutual dest India for its supplies. No other theory has been suggested which at all explains and harmonizes the whole policy of Great Britain in peace and war, towards the American States. The supreme malevolence of such counsel is no argument against thurers; and if I can permit its own people to suffer thus, for the purpose of working out the ultimate independence of Great Britain in the production of cotton, we cannot wonder that she is supremely indifferent to the distress of strangers.

arles Lewis and Mike Powers, who robbed him of a pocket-book containing sixty dollars. He was accosted by the two men with some common-place inquiry, and before he had time to reply one of them had clasped him about the arms, while the other seized him by the neck. Thus situated, he was powerless to give an alarm as to prevent the intended depredation. He was quickly relieved of his money and bade to proceed on, while the two robbers scampered off in an opposite direction. Making known the affair at the Provost Marshal's office, and describing the men, detectives Boyd, Carter, and Hammond were enabled to lay hold of them near the scene of their exploit. The pocket-book and money stolen from Mr. Quesenberry were found on their persons. After being brought before the Provost Marshal they were sent to the Mayor's office to be dealt with by the civil authorities. This is the second case of garroting that has occurred either in Richmond or on the suburbs within the last three weeks.

and has himself been beaten for the tenth time, in a pitched battle. After all his falsifications of its prophecies, the Herald still clings to the Little Napoleon. And it is right. He is beyond question the best General the Yankees have, if there be any best where all are so incomparably bad. Perhaps it would be more proper to say he is the least indifferent among them. He is certainly not so bad as the lying braggart and blackguard Pope, or the almost equally mendacious Halleck, or Buell, or Butler. The Yankees have not only no General, but it seems to us they have no materials out of which a General can be made. A generation devoted to money getting can hardly possess many of the heroic virtues, and among a people where the heroic virtues do not exist, the material for forming Generals cannot be found. The military academy at West Point has furnished the South with a number of Generals, worthy to rank with those of any service in the world. The camp of Gen. Lee, at this

me. We could see no resemblance between the movements of the great and the little Napoleon. We did not think, moreover, even though the smaller of the Napoleons were imbued with all the genius of the greater, his army was quite equal to that which captured Ulm, and which Thiers tells us was the finest the Emperor ever commanded. We could not be made to believe that Sickles was as daring a leader as Ney. McCall as thorough a soldier as Davoust, Reynolds as skillful a tactician as Soult, Heintzelman as great a strategist as Lannes, or Cooke such "a bold dragoon" as Murat.--All these the great Napoleon had with him at Ulm, each of them a tool in the hand of the master- workman, exactly adapted to execute the especial piece of work to which he might assign it. With less than all of them — not withstanding the high qualities of his almost unrivalled army — we did not believe he could have captured Ulm, and as the little Napoleon had them not, and as, moreover, Richmond was harder to tak

ce. So far from defeating us in eight distinct engagements, as the French defeated the Austrians before they enclosed them in Ulm, he himself was beaten in eight pitched battles before this city; and so far from entering Richmond in triumph, as Napoleon entered Ulm, he fled to the protection of his gunboats, and sneaked away like a thief in the night, after he had lost two thirds of his army. And now where is the little Napoleon! Has he struck any great blow to redeem the immeasurable disasteoint has furnished the South with a number of Generals, worthy to rank with those of any service in the world. The camp of Gen. Lee, at this moment, presents an array of names second to none which have been known to the world, since the days of Napoleon and his Marshals. We will not attempt to enumerate, for the number is so great that some of them would be sure to escape our memory, and it would be invidious not to name all, for all — each in his separate sphere — deserve to be named.
