OUR VICTORY AT ROANOSE
By ief'erence to our telegraphic col
umn it will Le seen that the Burnside
expedition bas been signally successful.
The att4elc'cipen the Island up until
Saturday evening, was vigorously
re
sisted 3 theyh repulsed Burnside twice,
but at length they were fo - rced to give
up their position, which is now in the
possession of our victorious soldiers.—
On Sittig:l4.ole fatal blows were struck
that clinic the .rebels from Elizabeth
City.
Thia.auccess is crushiu r to the rebels;
the Vitkinia papers, it mill be seen, se
knowlAke it to be most disastrous, say
ing thWtheit is in it no bright side
for their declining cause This crush
ing biome will spread a gloom through:
out thoeuntir,kßeuth, disheartening their
peoplefswhilmit will at the same time
prove Viiplendid stimulant to 'arouse
our fortiesin—Kentucky, who are pre.
paringlorim overwhelming attack upon
Columbus' and BOwling Green. Gen.
McClellan knew what he was saying
when hef--is"lform-ed the country that
when the goveinment did begin to
move, the fighting would be quick,
desperate and decisive.
There, is_ nother important and grat
ifying item of intelligence by telegraph
to which we also direct attention. It is
the bursting Union sentiment away in
Alabama, reported by those who re
turned.td-Fort Henry after their visit
up the Upper Tennessee.

THE DANGER TO NEW Oil-
LEANS
The operations of our gun boats on
the Ohio and Mississippi are beginning
to attract the attention of the people
along the Mississippi coast, and espe ,
cially those of Louisiana and New Or
lean7. The Delta, of a recent date, af
ter expressing its belief that Now Or
leans is prepared to resist an attack
fram sea, speaks in this way of the
consequence of our being succesE•ful at
the approaching struggle at Columbus
'But, what is the fact in regard to the
route down the river from Com mbite.?—
Should Columbus fall, what is to prevent
the enemy hom sweeping down the riv
er with an immense fleet of gun-boats
and floating batteries which he has been
so long preparing at St. Louis and Cairo,
and wit] a hundred thousand men un
der Gen. Halleck, to attack us on one
side, while an expedition, striking up
From the sea, would attack us on the
tithe'? Who can answer? Do prepara
tions for defence in rapid progreas an
swer? Where are the delenoci: Who
is engaged in the preparation,? These
questions admit .f no satisfactory an
seer. •
"Our dependence at present for the
safety of the city from the approach of a
formidable expedition down the river,
is upon Columbus. That is the North
ern key to the Mississippi delta. That
in possession of the tnemy, the flood
gates of invasion will be opened. Our
situation would not be hopeless, for the
soul of Southern men, fighting a war of
independence, must not dream of des
pair; but we would be confronted with
ten ibis danger and the whole country
exposed to fearful evils. On one condi
tion only can we realize a full assurance
that such dangers will not occur, and
that such evils will never impend."
Gen. Beauregarct's New Position
The 'Petersburg (Va.) Erpres.s, in its
i 8911.3 of Saturday, proft saes to have the
most reliable authority for stating that
this distinguished officer has been as
sig ed to the e.mmand of our forces in
New Orleans.
A dispatch was received in this city
Thursday night by a military gentleman
of high position irons .Macas , uts, signed
by (gin. 8., announcing this fact. Mince
it .s known that he has been transferr«i
from the army of the Po!ona%c there con
be no Impropriety in abating that New Urldun.s
will be the scene of ALS fumy-6 operations, and
we therefore do not hesitate to give it
publicity in these columns.
An English Spy
A New York paper says that a few
days ago, a high public official of Cana
da arrived at this port from England,
and, contrary to his usual custom, put
up at an out-of the-way sort of hotel ove r
in Brooklyn. it is said that a person cot.
responding with his description paid
daily visit to the Navy Yard, and was at
considerable pains to make himself ac
quainted with th e resources of that place.
The report further is, that the same per
sonage paid a visit to Fort Hamilton,
Fort Columbus, Fort Richmond and oth
er important military posts in this har
bor—with what motive nobody pre
tends to say, but a good many people
are guessing. At a moment when we
were on the verge of a war with Eng
land, it certainly does not look well to
have a British offices hus perambulating
about our navy yards and fortilioationa,
and theofficials in charge of them should
be instructed to show alt such appli
isints, in future, to the only tort which
bir Allan omitted to visit—Fort Lafay
ette.

Important Resolutions.
Senator Sumner has been for some
"time engaged in perfecting a preamble
and series of resolutions declaratory of
the; relations between the United States
and tbotereitory Once occupied by eTr•
tate States, and now usurped by pretend
goVerninents, without constitutional
ifght- Tiker Ptfticka',4 ll ati by . the self

persons held under those governments
inilavery "have become free, and that,
under the Constitution, they Cannot be
again enslaved." 'I hese resolutions,
providing virtually for the emancipa ion
of slavery in all the rebel States, have
been submitted to members of the Cib , f
inet, Senators and Representatives.
A Difficulty with Sutlers
A "ciiffi•iulty has occurred with the Sut
lers of Sickles' Brigade, end they have
all been placed under arrest. It grew
out of a quarrel about per centage with
the former regimental sutler, ea-Canal
Commissioner Silas Seymour, of New
York. • ,
Captain Thornton Smith, formerly
candidate for Inspector in the Philadel
phia Brigade, Quartermaster, has been
super ceded by Johny Austin, formerly
'keeper of Washington Market Ii otel,

`the Sullen' stocks to be seized, and sold
by mill ary , men.

stoned officers iind privates of (14 First
Regiment of -the .Pennsylvania-Reserve
corps: It has been said, my fellow-sol
diera, long ago and by a great man,
that there were occasions when silence
was eloquent. My swelling heart much
better befits meat this time for that kind
of eloquence than for any other; and if
1 could trust the electricity that passes
from heart to heart in a kindred band,
it would be better, perhaps for me to
depend upon the eloquence of that si
lence. But to-day, the first bright one
of many you have endured in the rain
and mud, I should forget myself did I
ndt attempt, at least, to say soirething
in re.ponse to the eloquent gentleman
who has just addressed me on your be
halt, and endeavor at least to return in
wordr, however feeble, my sincere
thanks for this magnificent donation.
Much as I have been accustomed to
r,j , eak for others, 1 find itnow a very dif
ficult task to express my gratitude to
you for this merle of the respect, es
teem, and confidence of the non-com
missioned officers and privates of the
,regiment which I have the honor to
command. We have been together dur
ing many, to us new and untried, scenes;
we are ,tutring a soldier's triumphs and
tri4i., as we hope one day to share his
reward In the approbation of our coun
trymen•
Tbe tone of the Engtigh and French
press, as conveyed to WI in the Alri,m,
which arrived on Friday last, is adverse
to our country, and is evidently intend
ed to revive the waning cause of the so
called Confederate Ftates and to reil
lu toe their camp-fires. The news comes,
you observe, by the Africa, a most -
propriale channel, it strikes me, for com
fort to the rebel gentry. Toe Enclish and
Preach now talk of what they will not
uo, and speak of us as they never spoke
betoie. My tellowaoldierir let this im
perious style but serve to rouse us for
whatever may be in the future. ' Come
weal, come woe,'t the col hers of the Re
pullc will renerve their arms and stand
tillttialer to shoulder, until the last reb

My fellow soldiers there is one thing
which I think you should let he known
an i heard more frequently. You know
it and your officers know it, around the

which a man may not live to redeem;
but there is one thing I desire to say to
this regiment, that, of all the tokens of
pul , lic respect, confidence and estevm
that 1 have ever received, this is the
proudert cud the dearest. For,
when an officer has the affection of those
under his command, he has gained a
great step, and when this weapon falls
from my nerveless grasp, and the heart
that now beats in sympathy and unison
with } ours is hushed forever, then, and
not tiii ii • n, can the recollection be for

pardon it, for you have made me so. If
UM proud to receive this present, it is
your respect and esteem that has made
me so. And to you, sir, for the kind
terms in which you have been pleased
to convey this evidence of the kindness
and reguid of your fellow soldiers, per

The liabel Enlistments
A Wa.,hiugtun correspondent corrects
an impression that is abroad, relative
to the time rebel enlistments expires :
There were n A more than ten thous
and troops—that is, regular twelve
months troops—in the South at the time
that Sumter fell. The present rebel
army has been organized since that time,
contemporaneously with our own. A
few regiments, which will disband be
tween now and May, will not sensibly
deminish the effioiency of the army, so
far as numbers are concerned; but it is
known that troops whose term of en
listment is nearly expired will not fight
with the same ardor as those whose
military career is before them. This
feet we learned, to our cost, at Bull
Run. If the war should be prolonged
to May, the defective organization of
the Rebel army will become of nee to
us, but until that time we must expect
to meet them in as great numbers as
heretofore In connection with this
matter it is well tif state that now it is
known that the total effective force of
the Rebel army can not exceed three
hundred thousand men. The Rebel
newspapers admit that they haktilonly
arms for two hundred and twenty-five
thousand men, comprising old flint-lock
muskets that were stolen from the
United States arsenals, and not more
than fifty thowLand English rifled mus
kets, which we knew now are not an ef
fective weapon. Against this Rebel
force we will have an army of six hun
dred thousand men, as well armed and i
equipped as any troops in the world.—
When the fight commences it will be
found not only that our troops are bet
ter armed, but that we have at least two
cannons to the Rebels' one on every field
where we engage them.

This portion of Missouri, a corres
pondent of the St. Louis Republican
says, already resembles Texas in the
days when outlaws ruled, and lynch law
alone protected the hearth-stone, and a
short shrift and rope with the power to
offer them, will drive the invaders
away, and should Columbus fall, the
farmers will themselves assist to defend
their homes. In the late expedition
two thousand infantry and four or five
hundred cavalry:were engaged. To meet
this Imp°Aug force were two or three
small gangs of halfistarved wretches,
whose principal boast is that of absorb.
ing an unlimited quantity of whisky
and rain without injury, and who could
hide in the thickets or play leisurely
around, while our army plunged des
perately along through water and mud.
