Address to the Army from liens. Beaure
gard and Johnston.
The following eloquent address of our Gen
erals to the army under their command will
excite the patriotic emotions of every South
ern reader:
Hbadqcabtxrs Amur cr the Potomac, \
Manassas, July 26, 1801. /
Soldiers oj the Confederate Statee :
One week age a countless host of men or
ganised into an army, with all the appoint
ments which mordern art and practiced skill
could devise, iuvsded the soil of Virginia.—
Tbeir people sounded their approach with tri
umphant displays of the anticipated victory.
Their Generals came in almost royal 8tate;
the great Ministers, Senators, and women
to witness the immolation of our army, and
the subjugation of our pcopla, and to cele
brate the result with wild revelry.
It is with the profoundeet emotions of grat
ituile to an over-ruliog God, whoso hand is
manifest in protecting our homes and our lib
erties, that we, your Generals commanding,
are enabled, in the name of our whole couu
try, to tbank you for that patriotio courage,
that heroic gallantry, that devoted daring ex
hibited by you in the actions of the 18th and
21st, by whioh the hosts of the enemy were
scattered, and a signal and glorious victory
obtained.
The two affairs of the 18th and 21st were
but the sustained and oontinued effort of your
patriotism against the constantly recurring
columns of an enemy fully treble your num
ber; aud tbeir efforts were crowned on the
evening of the 21st with a victory so completo
that the Invaders are driven disgracefully from
the field, and made to fly in disorderly rout
bask to their entrenchments, a distance of
over thirty miles.
They left upon the field nearly every piece
of their artillery, baggage, stores, &o., and
every one of the wounded, and dead, amount
ing together with the prisoners to many thou
sands. And thus the Northern hosts were
driven from Virginia.
Soldiers ! ws congrstulats you on an evsnt
which enaurea the liberty of our oountry.—
We congratulate every man of you, whose
glorious privilege It was to participate in this
triumph of courage and of truth—to fight in
the battle of Manassas. You have oreated
an epoch in the history of Liberty, and un
born nations will rise up and call you “ bless
ed.”
Continue this nobis devotion, looking al
ways to tbs protection of a jost God, sod be
fore time grows much older, we will be hail
ed as the deliverers of a nation of ten mil
lions of people.
Comrade*! our brothers who have fallen
have earned undying renown upon earth, and
thsir blood shed in our holy cause is a precious
and acceptable sacrifice to the Father of Truth
and of Right.
Their graves are beside the tomb of Wash
inton ; their spirits have joined with bis in
sternal communion.
Ws will hold fast to tbs soil in which the
dust of Washington is thus mingled with the
dust of our brothers. Ws will transmit this
lend free to our children, or we will fall into
the fresh graves of our brothers-in-arms.—
We drop one tear on tbeir laurels, and move
forward to avenge them.
Soldiers ! ws congratulate you ou a glori
ous, triumphant, aud complete victory, and ws
tbaak you for doing your whole duty in the
vervice of your country.

future Cotton Field.
Whers 1 In “Queeulaml,” a new Austral
ian colony, according to a recent statement
made by Dr. Dunmore Lang, who has publish
ed awork called “Queenlaad,Australia, a high
ly ellgble field for emigration, and the future
ootton field of Great Britien.” Here Is an ac
oount of the colony and its climate :
“ It is hounded on the North by the Iodisn
Ocean, on the South by New South Wales, on
the East by the Paeifio Ooean, and on the
West by the one hundred and twenty-ninth
Meridian. The greater part is within the
tropioe, but inasmuch as the temperature of
the Southern hemisphere is geneially lower
than ’that of the Northern, (he heat, though
considerable, is not excessive. The sum
mers are a little hotter than those of Maderia;
tbs winters a little colder. Europeans require
n few months to get aoclimated ; hat, when
that is effected, the oountry ie foaad very
healthy. The land ie watered by a large num
ber of beautiful streams, and Dr. Lang under
takes "to demonstrate lbs perfect suitability
of the soil and climate for tbs growth, by
means of European laborers, of ootton, eu
gar, and other tropical productions, elsewhere
raised almost exelusivety by colored and slave
labor.”
"European laborers" will never cultivate
with any success, cotton, sugar aud other tro
pical productions. Even old Lord Brougham,
whs did so much for the abolition erueade
tells Exeter Hall lhai ii> impolitic ta agiiat•
at present, mnei realiseihenoneeenaeat white
hireling labor in Cotton, sugar and rioe ielda.
Sambo can stand the sun, drink in tropical
malaria, do any amount of plait at ion work,
and get flit in (he birgnln.—Hew Orkam Del-
