TUESDAY, JULY 30, 1801.
Evils of Ilhoontoo.
Among am numerous spirited colobrations
of our late national anniversary, the details of
which have reached us from all parts of tho
country, we note ono, at Sinithlield, Bradford
county, in this, State• Now, wo rather like
Bradford county : having traversed a consider
able portion of it a few months slue% we be-
came favorably impressed. Even the frigid
habiliments of winter could not conceal from
as, at the thno, the beauty and fertility of its
hillsides, or tho thriving industry of its intel
ligent population. The appearance of andliar
names iu the details of a celebration in that
region, -therefore, naturally attracted our at
tention.
The address, in a neat pamphlet form, bear
ing the title prefixed to this article, was deli
vered by C. L. Ward, Esq., of Towanda. Ex
cept in reference to the present dreadful crisis
of the country, no one could hope for much
that was new in a Fourth of July address, even
from a pen as careful and cultivated as that
which our friend at Towanda is known to wield.
We think, however, our readers will agree
with us, that the following allusion to our de
parted patriots and sages is in excellent taste
at the present moment, as well as eminently
just :
"What true American soul ever entered
the festal hall to honor the natal day of Wash
ington that did not there throb more purely,
or yearn with a deeper devotion to the cause
of human freedom ? The glorious deeds, the
sentiments, and the bright example of oua
00UNTIVIOB FAMIER, are models for every Ame
rican to study and to venerate. • And while
they still visit his grave, or glorify the dawn
of his birth—while they experience fresh re
grets at the absence of such a leader, or ex
press renewed admiration of that great and
good man who fought for his country, who
labored for his country, and whose last wishes
were yet for his country—a spirit of similar
virtue is preserved, and it invigorates anew
the soul of our national existence.
or We are taught by our own experience, as
well as by the pen of inspiration, that the
patriotic and virtuous dead, through their use
ful labors and bright example, yet speak to
the living.' This sentiment, though promul
gated thousands of years•since, has the-attri
butes of universality and eternity. Most surely
it is not Abel alone (the accepted worshipper
and martyred brother) that speaks to us from
all the past : the wido world is filled with the
voices of the dead. In the private history
of each one of us, do we not find them
speaking to us in numberless events and as
sociations?. And this as well in the crowded
paths of life or the busy -throng of society
as by the secluded fireside or in the silent
chamber. Go where Wo will, the loved and
venerated dead are with us. Their well-re
membered tones mingle with the whispering
breeze, the rustling sowd of autumn's falling
leaf, or the glad music of spring time. An
eloquent, writer has well remarked other and
more substantial expressions of the presence
of the dead : Earth is filled with their enduring
labors.' Almost all the cherished literature,
the discoveries of science, the glories of art,
the everlasting temples, the dwelling places of
generations, the maxims and opinions of the
living, the institutions of sooiety, the fabrics
of empire—ALL are works of those who have
•passed away ; and by those,' they who arc dead
yet speak.'
cc 0, how solemn and impressive iu this dark
hour of our country's peril come tip to us
the voices and example .of our departed pa-'
triots I Not of Washington only, but also of
tho astute and philosophic Jefferson ; the
thoughtful and far. seeing titadison ; the stern,
sterling, and indomitable Jackson; the pro
found and logical Webster; and the kind,
persuasive, and patriotic Henry Clay ! To
this brilliant category, permit me now, with
the tearful eye and swelling heart of friend
ship, to add the faithful, fervid, and intropid
Douglas!
at I desire not to breathe a syllable hero to
day, tinged in the slightest degree with mere
party feeling. The noble example of kindness
and conciliation displayed but recently by the
two great men who a low months since divided
the suffrages of a free people for the highest
office in their gift is binding upon every ono
of us, in view of the common danger which
threatens our glorious 'Union ; and least of all
would I seek to disturb the harmony they have
inculcated, while standing, as it were, above
the now-made grave in which'one of them now
reposes forever I Yet Lfee.i. I should be alias,
not only to the highest impulses of friendship,
but would be shrinking from an honest tree
man's duty, if on this day, while recalling
many of the sublime teachings of the sages of
our country, I failed to pay a passing tribute
to the one, who has boon so recently and in
opportunely taken from us. To some of us,
it seems but yesterday that, we listened to the
tones of his .clarion voice, as he proclaimed
the eternal doctrines of man's right to •salt'-
g.
overnment—the, paramount sovereignty of
the people, in every organized community.
Re lived long enough, thank Heaven! to see
these principles adopted by even an opposing
and triumphant party, and, established through
out all our wide-spread domain, and in every
State and Territory of the land.
ce I have never been, in any sense, a man
worshipper; indeed, I have often found it
difficult to pay even the usual and formal meed
of honor and respect to the current creations
of popular fancy, many of whom I knew to
have reached their shifting and temporary
pedestals of power by some accidental combi
nation of fortunate circumstances, or by the
low arts and trickery of the demagogue. The
entry, and the parts played upon the great
theatre of human life, by such individuals,
however much they might plume themselves
as they passed across the public stage, have
generally tailed to impress me. But men like
those I have named, who, from the vigor of
their intellect, the force of their genius, or the
strength of their will, have exercised a deep
and powerful inftnence on their age and coun
try—shaping and moulding groat events to
their own cherished and patriotic purposes—
such men assume the proportions of the sub
litnest manhood, and properly become vs/aisles
or NATIONS. but anticipate the:inevitable
verdict of history in placing STEMEN A.
Donowat high upon this roll of fame. With
no peculiar advantages at the outset, except
those with which Nature had endowed him;
born in comparative obscurity, and bowed
down by the privations of poverty, he yet
elevated himself, at last, among the most
brilliant intellects of our land. In the fulness
of his strength, he gave many undoubted
proofs that he loved his country and gloried
in its freedom; and in the last trembling
accents which fell from his lips, as the rude
hand of death closed them forever, he urged
a proper and solemn lesson of duty upon his
countrymen: Sustain the Constitution, and be
obedient to the laws.",
Editor of The Press
From a private letter received from Fort Fil
more dated June 29th, we hear that a few days
previous a band of 'realms and Californians had
driven off the horses belonging to Captain Bdiott's
company, Regiment Mounted Riflemen. As the
men were at dinner (with the exception of two
herders, who were taken prisoners, bound, and
carried Ave miles from the poet), the thieves were
an hour gone before the truth was known. Lieut.
W. B. Lane, commanding company, started in
pursuit, found the trail, but was unable to overtake
`the parry. An express wag sent to Colonel Ma
goffin, living at Fort Bliss (brother of the atvernor
r of Kentucky), demanding restoration of the ani
mals. Of course, nothing was known of the ma- '
readers, and with but none disabled horses (all
that is left to company "A"), and' no other mounted
force at the poet, further pursuit was impossible.
All the Infantry has been ordered in from tZ ew
Mexloo, their pieces to be supplied by Mexican
volunteers. Much dissatisfaction Is expressed by
the officers and men at the Rifle Regiment at the
prospect of being commanded by a Mexican oolo•
net. Why not bring in these loyal °Moors and
"men, and entrust the frontier to Mexican volun
teers? The regiment needs reorganisation; offi•"
cars have resigned, and men deserted, until bat a.
skeleton of a regiment Is left, and that mattered
over mob -an extent of territory as to be utterly
ineflioient. •
Letter from "Harvey Bin,
Correepondenoe of The Hem]
WAsuracron, July 28, 1861.
Letters received hero from Louisville, Ky.,
coming trout reliable sources, state that the
enlistments for the Confederate army, whiCh
have been going on there, have boon stopped
by the death of John W. Tompkins, who was
at the head of the movement. Your readers
have hoard, by telegraph, the cause of his
death. Ho was shouting for Jell. Davis, after
the first news from Itlanassaa, awl, with his
brother Secessionists, was very jubilant and
insulting. Ile was ordered by a police officer
to keep the peace, but refused, and attempted
to draw his knife and pistol, when ho was shot
by the ()dicer. Tompkins was a very violent
and dangerous man ; had been engaged in
many tights, nud has met the fate which was
to have boon anticipated. The newly-up.
Pointed district attorney, James Harlan, Esq.,
has been active in his efforts to suppress
those enlistments, and will - promptly order ar
rests, should they be recommenced. for he
has
. now a lull force of deputy marshals to
compel obedience to file laws and put down
treason against the Governinent.
I do not, however, anticipate a reoponieg
of any Secession .rendezvous in Kentucky,
tore the State Guard, the nucleus - around
which all the Disunionists have centred, is
virtually dissolved. Major General Buckner,
the acting inspector general, Colonels Thos.
H. Hunt and Roger W. Hanson; have re
signed, and nearly all the other officers who
have sympathized with the Tennessee rebels
will soon follow null.. In the meantime, the
blockade of the Nashville Railroad is fully
enforced, and has ceased to create any ex
citement. If the Kentucky authorities will
show that they are able to prevent the Ship
ment of contraband articles through their
State to the Confederates, I have high autho
rity for stating that Secretary: Chase would
willingly open all the means of commercial
intercommunication between Cincinnati and
other river cities with Louisville; but so long
as traitors at the latter place are ready to sell
their country, as Iscariot did his Saviour, for
,the greed of gold, it cannot'be expected that
:the Government will countermand ita present
.rigid prohibition; Indeed,.it would .be .wrong
to do so. •
The smuggling of goods from Kentucky to
the rebellious Stales has not boon confined to
those whose necessities compel them to deal
in contraband on account of hard times. It
has, like piracy and robbery, been dignified
by the Confederates, among whom it may be
truly said, c 4 there be land rats and there be
water rats." HO whose education and ante.
codenta should have taught them better, have
been engaged in it, and I have heard of a lu
dicrous incident concerning the complicity of
James B. Clay with it, that "degenerate son
of a noble sire." Ho started from Lexington
with several partners and a large number of
wagons loaded with bacon and other barreled
provisions, destined for Tennessee, by the way
of the Cumberland Gap. Halting places had
been pro-engaged at the farms of persons
sympathizing with the Secessionists, and the
journey was unattended by any untoward in
cident until the provision train reached
the mountain regions about the head
waters of the Cumberland river, in the
Congressional district represented by the
Hon. George W. Dunlap. Here dwells a
noble race of men,
like the Rhettans, the
early tenants of the hills of Switzerland, who
dnnk in liberty with the pure air of their
eagle-nested homes, and revel in the love of
freedom like the majestic bird, the standard
bearer of our country's flag. When they
board of the approach of the contraband arti
cles, these loyal Union mountaineers assem
bled in force, with the rifles and shot guns to
which they aro accustomed from infancy, and
made the teamsters unload, leave their pro
visions, and turn their horses' heads towards
home, with a sharp intimation that a repetition
of such dastardly conduct would not bo so
lightly punished, but that In the future life as
well as property might be confiscated. Clay
and his co-workers in this disgraceful traffic
always kept prudently in the rear, and gave
as an excuse that their team was foundered,
but when the retreat commenced the recovery
of their nags was a perfect miracle of veteri
nary practice ! HARVEY BIRCH.

PHILADELPH[A, TUESDAY, JULY 30, 1861.
What the Crisis Demands.
NEwrox, N. J., July . 23,1861:
To the Editor of t/ce Press:
The Immediate causes of this terrible disaster,'
whose oonsequenoos at home and abroad none can
estimate, seem to me twe•fold. : First, the insane ,
cry of certain editors for an immediate advance
upon Kiohmond, whioh operating upon the public,
and upon Congress, has produced snob. a preszare
at Washington as to induce Gen. bleott to consent
to an advance before he was ready, and in . viola
tion of his previous plans. Second, the unaccounta
ble course of Gon. Patterson in allowing Johnson
to effect a junction with Beauregard, another,edi
tion of Marshall Grouchy. The lesson to be
learned from both causes, is to conduct the war on
military principles, regardless of the ravings of
editors, actuated by anything bid s good motives,
end to confide no longer in inoxperienood or
inefficient commanders to direct important move.
went 8.
The Administration ought, at once, to call into
the field the force authorized by Congress, for it
will take many weeks to get them equipped,
armed, provisioned; and fully prepared to'
move. At least 75,000 should be conCentra
ted at Cairo, to march, in the fall, down the
MlaYiesippi, and furnished with plated gun-boatt
to go in advance and destroy the batteries, this
affording an opportunity to take provisions, and
stores. aad munitions, and some of the troops down
the river, keeping pace with the land column.
Another equal force should be organized in Ohio,
with adequate transportation, as noon as possible,
so as to march across from the Ohio river to Booth
western Virginia, strengthening the Union men in
Kentucky and Tennessee, and cutting off the rebel
communications between Virginia and the South
west. In addition to this, we should have in Vir
ginia, east of the Blue Ridge, at least 75,000 more
men than wilt remain after the three-months
volunteers have left. 'Until these preparations are
oomplete, make no onward movements except
where we are certain of at least an rqnality of
force, with reserves to hold what we have, and
make losses good. When everything is ready,
strike, and strike terribly—follow blow with blow
—drive them out of Virginia—leave force enough
there to secure the State, .and operate with land
and naval forces simultaneously upon Charleston
and New Orleans, and, if possible, to raise force
enough also upon Savannah, and Mobile, and Pen
sanola The South have had the advantage is Vir
ginia of being at the centre, where they could con
centrate their whole force at one point, while we
have boon operating around the oireamference,
unable to concentrate; we mast avoid that in fa
titre by attacking their vulnerable points all at
Once, in aeon force as to prevent a concentration
on their part, and inner° sueoess. In addition to
plated vessels on the Mississippi, we should oon•
street enough to operate against their sea ports;
such can be got as would bid defiance to the fortl
floatione protesting those places—fortifications that
would soon sink any ships we now have. It we
take this coarse we can, with God's blessing,
finish the war in a year, or lege, and avoid Euro
pean complications, and it will be =oh the
cheapest in the end, as well ss most saving of life.
The opposite coarse will lead to at least a four
years war, the recognition of the South by Euro
pean Powers, and perhaps a war with some of
them, and the ultimate triumph of the South,
with more States in their Confederacy than now.
Be muoh for the proximate clauses of the late dis
aster, and the way to prevent a disastrous issue to
the war. But there are causes book of these, and
if they are ignored, and the lesson they teaoh un
heeded, all our efforts will be in vain. I would be
doing violence to my own deep-seated convictions,
and neglecting what seems a plain duty, if, while
writing, I should omit to mention them. God,
reigns now, and governs the world now by his con
trolling Providence, ae much as he did in the time
of the Jews, and there is much in their history by
whioh we may now profit. When the eleven tribes
went to war with Benjamin, on account of the out
rage to the Levite, they went In a spirit of arro
gant boasting, and were twice signally defeated,
and did not sawed till they humbled themselves
and repented—Judges. chaps. 19, 20, and 21.
When Gideon and his 300 men -delivered la:ael
from the Midissitish host, they went forth in an
humble spirit of dependence upon God, and he
sent a nocturnal panic among the enemy, who
destroyed each ether—Judges. chap 7 So he
sent his angel by night and slew 185 000 of the
Assyrians-2d Kings, chap. 19 Many more snob
instances might be selected from the Old Testa
ment, but these are enough for my purpose; so,
tee, could many be pointed out in our own early
history, and in the history of our English Forams
ancestors. God can cause ono to chase a thousand
as well now as then. It is true that tie age of
miracles has passed, but all history, as well as the
Bible, teaches that God punishes nations for their
national sins as muok as ever, and delights to
humble the pride, arrogenoy, and self-confidenoe
of nations as well as of individuals. Infidels,
and those nominal Christians who practically
are infidels, may sneer at these doctrines, but
they nevertheless will remain as firm and true as
God himself, and I shall have no hope of ultimate
success in this war tilt our rulers and people prac
tically acknowledge them. Have we no national
sine to be humbled for, and repent of? Was there.
ever so proud, vain glorious, and boastful a nation,'
offensively so to all the nations of the earth ? In
stead of thanking God sincerely for the countless.
blessings conferred upon the nation, and &Anew
lodging our dependence upon Him, our uttteh-:
boasted Constitution does not even acknowledge
the existence of a God, and we have claimed for
ourselves, through our Constitution, Union and
laws, the work of our own hands, and for •our ta
lents, bravery, energy, industry, and civilization,
the whole credit of our growth, prosperity and
greatness, and have been continually , boasting of
what we would be in the future. While erecting a
'magnificent Capitol at Washington, and, in the
pride of our hearts, saying of it and our country,
"Is not this great Babylon that I have built for
the house of the Kingdom by the might of my
power, and for the honor of ray majesty "—Daniel,
4, 30 We have forgotten the fate of Nebuohednez
zar ; God can as easily overthrow our mueh
baasted Union and Constitution, and strike down
the neUort, as he could send him forth to eat grass
with the beasts of the field. While enjoying reli•
OM advantage, snob as no nation ever enjoyed,
we hate, in our love of money and worship of our
golden idol; bsen as "truly idolutrous as were

Another Sensation in New York.
drrlval of Prince Napoleon and Clotilde
The Prince Maintains a Strict Incognito
New York has another sensation, in the person
of Prince Napoleon and the Prinoess Clotilde. It
appears from tho following report from the Herald,
that the party desired to remain in atriot ittoognito,
but the reporters were too sharp for them :
TUN /12111. VAL
Although It has been known for some time past
that Prince Napoleon, Brat cousin of the Emperor
ottherfattelf- his consort, the Princess Cie
tilde, d.eughter of Wertni-Bmniimiiel„King e of
were about to pay a visit to this country, and, not
withstanding , this announcement of the fact that
they had arrived at Ealifax, and might be expected
in New York at any moment, the actual arrival of
the Prince's steam yacht, Jerome Napoleon, on
Saturday afternoon, with the prinosly couple on
board, was disposed of within the compass of the
following four lines of shipping news :
AIIIIIVAD —French . gunboat Jerome Napoleon,
Bunion commanding, Tarlton May 21, via Halifax
July 22. The Jarmo Napoleon is a propeller of
250 horse power, carrier, a crow of 118 officers and
men, and two 12 pounders.
So atriot was the incognsto and. Buell the indif
ference of the members of the press, amidst the
exoitement of the present unnatural contest, to
any more sensations from abroad. A year ago,.
I when the Piinee of Wales, under the cncoguito
of the Baron Renfrew, visited this country, the
people were thrown into a furor of excitement. It'
mattered not that the Prince chose to come among
us as a private gentleman. It we.. determined to
receive him as a prince, and the son of the ball
sovereign, wife, and mother that fills a thione,'
and nothing loss; and such a reception was so-!
corded him by this republican nation as never;
prince. had been honored with before. his pro
grass, from his arrival at Newfoundland and
throughout the Brilieh Provinces and the United
States, was duly heralded forth to the world,
and every city, town, and village rivalled each
other in doing him honor.
Prince Napoleon Bonaparte has now arrived,
and bow great the change! Ile enters the bay of
Now York, passes in a carriage through our prin
cipal street in open daylight, and spends several
hours in one of our great hotels , and the newspa
pers of the following morning do net .00ntaln the
slightest hint of his arrival. Such is one of the
significaet lessons of the hour.
VIZ IMPERIAL PANTY AND RITITS
So secret are the Prince's movements that hardly
anything oould be learned of his intentions or even
of the per smind of hie suite.
Last night, however, we learned that the Impe
rial pr-rty oonsists of the following ladies and gen
tlemen • •

and driven with the Prinotses Clotiide, the Duels
ere de Abrantes, and the °mottles do Mentholon,
to the New York Hotel, where , they remained for
about four boure, and then returned on board the
Jerome Napoleon. So etriot was the incognito
that the names of the imperial party were DOC re
gistered on the hotel book, and the public were
consequently kept in tho dark relative to the mi.
portent arrival.

TINNY EXPHOT TO VISIT WASHINGTON
Yesterday afternoon one of our reporters went
off to the Jerome Napoleon, a beautiful vessel
lying at the entrance of the North river, and had
an, interview with the Count de fdedun, who po
litely informed him that as the Prince travelled
inoog , he was not permitted to disclose anything
respecting the imperial party further than the bare
fact of their arrival from lialifax at four o'clock
on Saturday afternoon, and that the President has
been notified of their arrival. This would seem to
indicate an early visit to Washington. The Count
is quite a young man, rather swarthy, but decidedly
good looking. lie speaks English fluently, but
with the peculiarity of the French accent, which
not one Frenchman in ten thousand can entirely
overcome. He was dressed in a naval uniform.
At four o'clock in;the afternoon the of of the
Excelsior Brigade, now stationed at Camp Soot;
Staten Island, were surprised by a oleic from the
Prince and his suite, nooompanied by the French
consul. As three of the regiments forming this
brigade have been sent to the Seat of war, the
Prince did not witness such a military display as
he would have seen Lind •he arrived a week ago.
So sudden and unexpected was the visit of his Im
periaLliighness that the oilmen looked on the
statent as a joke too , good to be true ; but ott
coming to the ground where the Prince was, our
rounded by his suite, the well known features of
the first Napoleon set all doubts at rest. Besides,
some of the offloers bad seen the Prince in Paris,
and therefore know him at a glance
A gourd was itumediately towed out, and his
Imperial Ifightkees received by Colonel Graham,
of the Fifth, and Colonel Fairman, of the Fourth
Mums. Every attention that the suddenness of
the visit would permit was extended to the illus
trious visitor. The Frenob Zouaves and other
organisations at the post ,ware turned out Cap
tain Bruen, of the Ordnance Department ; Brigade
Surgeon Tingley, Adjutant Gilbert, Paymuter
Warman, Lieutenant Young, and Acting Aid and
Lieutenant Laurier, private secretary of General
Sickles. were present on the occasion. •
The Prices arrived in a private carriage. lle, as
.Well as the gentlemen- who accompanied him, was
dressed like a private citizen. Ile made very par
ticular inquiries as to thegeneral organization of
troops throughout the republic, and as to the new
bare and efficiency of the various regiments. Be
ing satisfied on this head, he next inquired hOw it
was that coral: , of our brigades oomprised two or
three. and others four er five regiments. It was
represented to him that the different States offered
their quota of men according to the proportion of
population, A large State giving a brigade of- the
highest nuniber, and a smell one giving one of two
regiments; but ihe Penne was also assured that a
new regulation had been issued fixing the mini
mum of all brigades at four regiments. Ile de

ing from Gnirot Prirmiesion to visit Pane under the
title of Count de MontfOrt; but his relations with
the. demoorritie - party,. and his ultra opinions
in , favor of republicanism, very soon brought
him under the szeplition of the Government,

to him to leave ~ the country. Some time after

formally reoeived' the' petition of his father, the

of every good citizen to ,take part with the repub

marked that he voted 'with - the"minerity against
the banishment of the Orreabi family. On the 10th
of February,lB49, he was appointed ambassador
to the Court of Madrid, but but letters of authority
were soon after revoked, In consequence of his
leaving his post without leave, .and he was IMO
octotled by M. Bourgoing This not of severity in
duced him to enter, with greater alacrity, into the
views 'of the Democratic opposition ; and during
the sittings of the Legislature, la which be still
represented La Corse, he always sat on the opposi

sures than he had for the..Goverument in 1851,
but übstained from taking pert inAlle outrageous
discussions that marked, the close of the Assembly.
Immediately . alter the coup.dziLaL9f.lBs.2 he re•
tired into private life. This retirement, however,
was not of very long duration, for, at the end of
the same year, on the roatoration of the Empire,
Prince Napoleon, in virtue of his relationship to
the Emperor, and by a decree of the Senatue Con •
eultum of 234 of December, took the style and
title of a French Prince, being, after his father
Jerome, the next heir to the throne of Prance,
and by right, as, such, he took his place in the Se
nate and the Connell of State. At the same time
he received the 03 rand Cross of the Legion of
Honor, and, without having served, the rank of a
general of divieort. When war was declared
against Russia, ho expressed a desire to share
the glories of the campaign, and, on the; 10th of
April, ho embarked at Marseilles fur the scene of
the struggle, and commanded a division of the
infantry of reserve at the battles cf the Alma and
I 'Amman. A short time afterwards the feeble.
seas of his health, and, perhaps, also the publica
tion of a brochure at Brussels, containing some
very free comments on the plan of the campaign
adopted in the Crimea, caused him to be recalled
to Francs. A mission more conformable to his
talent. now awaited him. lie was' ppointed pre
sident of the Imperial Commission of the Univer
sal Exposition of 1855 He manifested, in the
labor that devolved on him in connection with this
great scheme, the most active zeal, and a firm
desire to carry out the work to perfection, which
was fully appresdated by the foreign jurors and all
the exhibitors. Those who are so inclined may
judge of this by the book which has boon dedicated
to him, under the titio of " Visite du Prince Na
poleon a l'Exposition Universelle " After the
birth of a direct heir to the Imperial Crown, he
accepted .a portfolio in the Ministry. In 1857 he
undertook a voyage to the North seas,. which
has been the subject of an excellent work,
by Mr. Charles Edmund, entitled " Voyage dane
los Mere du Nord a bond de la Corvette La
Keine Hortense " On the 24th of June, 1858,
Prince Napoleon was placed at the head of the new- 1
ly.oreated ministry for Algeria and tba colonies
On the 30th of January he married the Princess
Clotildo Mario Therese de Savoy, daughter of
Victor Emmanuel. Ring of Sardmia. The Princess
was born on the 2d of &lamb, 1843. This family
alliance was determined on by an intimate under
standing between the two sovereigns and the reeip
rooal interests of France and Piedmont; but the
negotiations to bring it about were delayed more
thane year. The marriage was regarded as the
sign of a closer political alliance—a supposition
that was verified by the war that was almost Im
mediately entered upon with Austria for Italian
independence. As soon as the war broke out
Prince Napoleon was sent to Livournia; with a
corps d'ormce of forty thousand men, for the pro
tection of Tuscany. By the death of Prince Je
rome, Prince Napoleon stands, next after the
Prince Imperial, heir to the throne of the Napo
leone, and takes rank aa a Marshal of France.
The next act of the Prince's life, which has
brought him prominently forward before the
world, is the suit of 'Madame Patterson Bonaparte
against him, to obtain her marital rights as the
widow of the late Prince Jerome Bonaparte, father
of Prince Napoleon, to vindicate her fair fame and
establish the legitimacy of her eon. The suit and
its' results, in the defeat of Madame Bonaparte,
are too recent and well known to require more
than a bare allusion to them.

MAYAIIIIMi, July 22.—The bloodiest battle, and
one of the most important which have taken place
en this continent, took. place at Bull Run, near
Manassas, yesterday (Sunday), July 21. The Fe
deralists had about 35,000 men engaged, and in
the hottest of the fight the• Confederate States had
about 15,000 only of their men engaged. The Fe
derate endeavored to turn Manama on the left of
our army, where lien. Johnston had command.
General Beauregard commanded on the right wing,
and President Davis had charge of the centre.
The Federate were repulsed with the loss of about
' 10,000 men. Our loaf is said to be about 1,500 in
killed and wounded: Ellsworth's &eaves fought
with great bravery, and were almost entirely an
nihilated. They were found piled up on each other

MIES OF THE BATTLE
The despatch of President Davie says that the
severest fighting of the battle of the 21st was on
our left flank. Those who gave attention to our
description of the localities in Monday's issues will
recognize the "Stone Bridge" as the scene of this
terrible collision. That point where the turnpike
road crosses Bull Run was on the extreme left of
our line. The enemy made a desperate effort to
carry it, and thus turn our flank ; but (leo John

attempt, piled the field of oonfliot with their Hain,
and put them to flight, as stated in the President's

informs Conran that the invader of our soil has
been driven back, that our altars have been puri
fied and our homes moored from the ruthless hand
ef an unprincipled foe. But, sir, it has been at a
coat that will bring sorrow Into many families ;
wet with fanning tears the cheeks of many widows
and orphans, and into many happy homes bring
grief and deeoislion ; and I presume, sir, Congress
' wilt be little disposed, on such an occasion, to go on
with their usuaLbueiness. I have, therefore, taken
the liberty of , offering a series of resolutions, which
I will:submit to Congress; and ash their adoption :
Resolved, That we recognize the hand of the
Most Righ God, the King of Kings and Lord of
Lords, in the glorious victory with which He has
crowned our arms at Manumit; and that the peo.
pie of these Confederate States are invited, by ap
propriate services on the ensuing Sabbath, to offer
up . their united thanksgivings and prayers for this
mighty dellverauoa.
Resolved, That we deeply deplore the necessity
which has washed the soil of our country with the
blood of so many of our noble eons, and that we
offer to their respective families and friends our
warmest and most cordial sympathies, assuring
them that the sacrifice made will be oonsecrated
in the hearts of our people, and will there enshrine
the names of the , gallant dead, as the champions of
free and constitutional Government
Resolved, That we approve the y :prompt and
patriotic efforts of the Mayor of the oily of Rich
mond to make provisions for the wounded, and
that a committee of one member Irma each State ,
be appointed to co-operate in the plan.
Resolved, That Congress do new adjourn.
The resolutione were unsuicsously adopted, and
Congreaa adjourned to meet to-morrow at 12 M.
