A Budget of Blunders.

--The British Quarterly for July contains the following amusing statement of ‘"facts:"’

Be it remembered that since the 13th of April Fort Sumter has been in the hands of the Secessionists, and that the 10,000 Carolinians who took it only lost some 200 or 300 men. Fort Pickens, which commands the entrance of the Gulf of Mexico, is also in possession of the Southern Confederation, which possess Fort Monroe in Virginia, Fort McHenry, in Maryland, a large Fortress on Delaware, and the arsenal in New Albany and Kentucky.
