The virulent and utterly unwarrant
ed and and unexplained irritation
against England manifested by the
United States [or as we now calf them,
the federalists], is the astonishment of
all beholders. It is not confined to one
part or to one class.. It seems to be
ielt equally by the people,by the press,
by the Government, the diplomatists
and [strange to say] even by the En
glish correspondents of London news-

tions, I left fee city of Richmond on the
7th of July, a* 6.o’clock A. XL as bear
er of dispnehes to I 1 is Excellency
Abraham Lincoln, President of the
United Stater. At Manassas, I re
ceived a letter from Gen. Beauregard
to Gen. McDowell, commanding the
United States forces at Arlington.-—
From Manassas, I proceeded to Fairfax
court house, where I was furnished by
Gen. Bonhain an escort of fourteen
cavalry undtr the commant. of Lieut.
Breckenridgf, of the Virginia cavalry.
Proceeding on the direct road "to Al
exandria'to its j incture with the road
to Arlington, I met a detachment of
cavalry under the comtnaud of Col.
Porter, U. S. A., about three miles from
the junction; from wl ich place 1 sf nt

By nature the position is one of the

is easily made impassable by the fell

it is defence to itself. The key to the

Well: we will suppose them to be

as they expect to he. V\e will for the , , . . L ,, L „
conditions within this Confederacy, and
all have been furnished with rations
for thcii subsistence, such are allowed
to our own troops. It ts only since
the news has been received of the
treatment of the prisoners taken on the
Savannah, that I have been compelled
to withdraw these indulgeneies, and to
hold the prisoners taken by us in strict
confinement.
A just regard to humanity and to 'he
honor of this government now requires
ine to state explicitly,that painful as will
moment put aside the two possibilities
of the blockade being evaded by a fair
proportion of enterprising merchant
men, or raised by Confederate priva
teers and cruisers—even if no other
contingencies should interfere. Is it so
certain that mere defeat in the field,
added to all the inconveniences aml
privations consequent upon an inter
rupted commerce, will induce the
Southerners to confess themselves van
quished, and submit to accept terms at
the dictation of the conqueror ? Docs
any one acquainted with the temper ot
the Southerner—who unites all the fiery
pride of the Frenchman with all the
stubborn pride of an Englishman-—
believe that defeat and privation will
.Jo more than envenom and exasperate
the strife? Has it not been apparent
from the beginning of the dispute that
fanatical passion and uot calculating
sense has guided the whole people ;
and that now their cause has become
deal out to the prisoners held by it the
same file as shall be experienced by
those captured on the Savannah; and. if
driven to the terrible necessity of re
taliation by your execution of any of
the officets or crew of the Savannah,
that retaliation will extend so far as
shall be requiste to secure the aban
donment of a practice unknown to the
warfare of civilized man; and so bar
barous as to disgrace the the nation
which shall be guilty of inaugurating
it.
With this view, and because it may
not have reached you, I now renew the
proposition made tb the commander of
the blockading squadron, to exchange
for the prisoners taken on the Savannah,
an equal number of those now held by
us, according to rank.
I am, sir, yours &c.,
Jeffesbon Davis, President, and
fifty men can detend against a whole
army. It was at one of these points
that the Washington Artillery were at
first encamped, and though only halt
the battalion was then there, aml we
had only one company ot infantry to
support us, we slept as sound'y under
the protection of our guns as* it vve had
been in a tort of the amplest dimen
sions.
Of the fortifications suporadded here
by Gen. Beauregard to those of nature,
it is, of coarse, not proper for me to
speak. The general reader, in fact,
will have a sufficiently precise idea of
them by conceiving a line of forts some
two miles in extent, zigzag in form,
with angles, salients, bastions, case
mates, and everything t! at properly be
long to works of this kind.
The strength and advantages of this
position at Manassas are very much iu
creased by the fact that fourteen miles
further on is a position of similar for
mation, while the country between is
admirably adapted to the subsistence
and entrenchment of troops in num
bers as large as they can be easily
manmuvred on the real battle-field
Water is good and abundant; forage
as it is everywhere found in the rich
farming districts of Virginia, and the
communication with all parts ot the
country easy.
Here, overlooking an extensive plain,
watered by mountain streams which
ultimately find their way to the Poto
mac, and divided into verdant fields of
wheat, and oats, and corn, pasture and

Potomac. They are South Carolinians,

The General’s mess is very much
in keeping with his character, and sim
ple enough for Napoleon himself. It
is served nn a long pine table, set in
an open piazza of the farm house, and
all his friends arc hospitably welcomed
to it three times a day. The General

guests on the other; the rest of the

The Federal defeat is attributed iu the
inactivity of Gen. Patterson, who received
a dozen official orders to engage Gen John- I

treat was nothing more or less than a stam

were unavailing to arrest the panic.
