Cornelis never recovered — and on the 19th October, Cornwallis surrendered. We recall these things to recollection, this time, because it strikes us that is a similarity in our present contion to that of our fathers in the begining of 1781. Hood, like Gates, has been feated and Savannah has been taken Charleston has not been captured, Hood's defeat was far from being so nal. as that of Gates. Richmond is in our hands; whereas, at the opening of the year 1781, Arnold was master When GHood's defeat was far from being so nal. as that of Gates. Richmond is in our hands; whereas, at the opening of the year 1781, Arnold was master When Green joined the army of to South, in December, he found it reeded mere handful, intimidated by death, and altogether incapable of making any great exertion. The forces of Beauregard, on the contrary, are numerous and well disciplined, and its officers are able and experienced soldiers. The vicbry which has just been achieved over the Yankee armada at Wilmington may be fairly set off against the defeat of Ferguson at King's mountain.

will be seen there is a great controversy amongst them as to who is to blame for the recent disgraceful failure of the Butler-Porter expedition. The Herald, Times and Philadelphia Inquirer attempt to make Old Butler the scapegoat; but the Tribune takes up for Butler manfully, and throws the blame of the failure upon the navy. It matters little to us how this question is settled, but we hope the quarrel may be long and heated. Our people know that, under Providence, the successful repulse of the grand armada was duel to the skill of generals and the splendid courage of our troops.

General Hood's official report of the battle of Nashville has not yet come to hand. Until it reaches us, we will not know the truth concerning the battle of Nashville and the subsequent retreat of his army. His dispatches should reach us in a very short time.
