Mr. Russell’s Letter te the Londen Times. [From the Special Cor. of the London Times } Wasnixerox, . §.—"Letus only hold on till October and we are safe.” That, or some- thing like it, was said to me over and over = in the South by men who play no incon erable part in the mystery drama of the Confederates. And when I asked one of these entlemen, more than two months ago, what Seance there was of the North giving the South all that time, I was answered almost in these words, “ We are bound to go to the assistance of Virginia. .The whole of the northern fron- tier ds in tions, which can be fed by the rail from South. The Aboli- tionists will come and give us battle. We are certain to 7 Gaps if they attack us, and the North will then learn itcan’t at once over- run us, as it fancied. The leaders will pause. There will be a reaction up there. We will work all the harder and all the better for our victory. Drilling our men and consojidating our resources. The northern cities will become discontented. Foreign nations will ask when the cotton ports are tobe open. The North will have no reply. We shall be better able to ht in November than we shall be to fight in une. Every week’s delay will add to the complications and weakness of the North, and the end of the year will find them farther from their sim than ever—divisions in their coun- oils, even disturbances in their Lg pecs while we, inspired by the approach of success, will exhibit increasing energy and unanimity.” A part of the programme has been already ac- complished, but it does not follow that the re- mainder of the prophecy will be fulfilled with as much nicety So far the result of the action of the 2Ist has been the prolengation of the warin America. The effect it may have had abroad will be known in a few days more. It is plain now that the Confederates were not only really unable to pursue their advantage, but that they were not at first aware of its extent. They enffer from deficient transport, and aro better prepared for defence than at- tack. Their army was almost as much ‘scared,’ to use an English word in an American way, asthe Federalists, if the reports are to believed of confusion, wavering and retreat in their ranks—and of the passionate exertions of the officers, as well as of their losses. In fact, the Confederates stand before the world strip- ofa deal of the strength of which they asted in actual numbers; and it iss poor cover to their weakness to put forward the as- sertion that only a small portion of their force , when it is notorious that they had all quarters for reinforcements, above all, when it is considered that, by using all the men at their disposal, they could have forced the mass of the Federalist army to sur- render prisoners of war, and have occupied the capital. Their operations up to this time indicate hesitation and want of vigor; but it is jast possible they may be preparing to strike some great blow. It is given out that General Beauregard has gone for a short time to Charleston. Gen. Johnston has not shown in any force infront of his old position about Harper's Ferry, nor bas he threatened the Fed- eralists under Gen. Banks, who are coverin the passage of the river from the Marylan: side. Before Hampton and Fortress Monroe there is an equal absence of offensi eading by Vienna and Fairfax Court House towards Manassas, at a considerable distance from the outposts and lines of t Federalists, and there is less of the wild, rilla sort of work between the two armies was formerly the case, but the attitude of t Confederates is not that of = very confident or rife, nor of the bot m aasee to take Washing- ton, nor even of th rnest promises to libe- rate Maryland and other afflicted portions of the sleveholding sisterhood. There may be licy in tl and, notwithstanding the grow! 2 opposi of one or two papers in the South to the men and measures of the war, the influence of Mr. Jefferson Davis is quite suf- ficient to induce the press to keep its peace, or adopt any tone he may suggest io furtherance of the common cause. ey can organize a tra! rteropsin time. There plenty of exc oem South if the planters can in their patriotism submit to ruin and send them from the fields. Horses in abundance can no doubt be procured from the southwest and led out of Kentucky. Twenty-five brass jieoes, one rifled thrown 30lb. shot = ll from a small bore, and perb: sev- eral other guns not enumerated, captured at Manassas, will go some way to e up for the want of field artillery, under which the Con- federates were laboring, and the areas’ 4 of ammunition of all sorts which fell into their hands must strengthen them in their weakest it. The thousands of muskets left on the will be no indifferent acquisition,and they have been already applied te arm men who cot previously with small regiments are <> happy by the blankets,overcoats, canteens, knapsac: pt accoutrements of all kinds distribut: them, to the great relief of the Confed- crate T . Meanwhile, the army of the maa complete reor- ganization in the face of the enemy. The old army of volunteers and three months’ men may be looked upon as annihilated, or at all events dissolved. It would be curious te ascertain how many of them will re-enlist. even under differ- ent officers. The affair at Manassas not only destroyed McDowell’s army, but it gave a heavy blow and great disceuragement to the very spiritof the American system, by which mon were placed in positions they had no fit- ness for, and large masses of armed men were assembled whom it were delusion to consider asanarmy. Mr. Davis saw the mischief long ago, and by special ast of Congress of the Con- federate States at ety he seized the power of a tin, rs. It may seem strange that the soldiers should not feel proper respect for the men they had selected to com- —— but none ri teoarton pot eoe | seleotion, particularly in the lower es, was injarious to all real discipline. if any officer insisted on obeying the rules and regulations of the army, he was by his nomina- tors as an engrateful fe who was using the tee ee vex and harrass p svete { ee ee ae retali- 6 and incurred the positivecontempt and aera of men who took little care toconceal their feelings. It is hard to teach Americans dis- cipline. Their regular army has been for the most part composed of Germans and Irish. The people are averse to obedience on priaci- ple; even children, as I have observed particularly in the North, are less m: Sble—"“biddable™ as mothers say—than in old-fashioned country where the fifth com- mandment is held in respect.

The officer held it up to light, gauged the contents, smelt the mouth, and then teok along pull, which was followed by a sounding smack of the lips, and intensity. The bottle was restored; then “Shoulder afms—by the right—wheel—quick march,”’ and a went bottle, officer, and men. It would be very un- fir to assert that such officers are common and such practices usual; but that there is on questions of discipline an extraordinary deviation in _princip! timent and practice in American people from those of any o! military people, requires no proof when see Colonel Richardson, in an official dosument respecting the conduct of his troo; Manassas, accusing his senior officer, Colonel Miles, who was in command of a brigad di and incapabl field, in reply publi: statement, which appears in all the pa- pers, in which he says he was not drunk, and prays God to foi his taught by ex adversity—bitter to them—will force them to bend to discipline in order that they may conquer; and if they desire to carry on the campaign, and escape the Caudine Forks, they must stoop, people free, intelligent, and brave as they are have done, to the thrall of order and obedience. That much can be done by the judicious exercise of authority in en- forcing military rules and regulations among them, as mong the rest of mankind, is conclu- i jown in the great changes and im- P ents effected in the army of Washing- ton, and, above all, in the itself, by young General MaPlellan, who bids fair to be the next President, if his success is at all commen- sarate with the enormous praise and flattery, which, much against his will, are forced down his throat. Before his nomination the streets of the capital presented a spectacle the like of which was probably never seen in any civilized city. A routed, demoralized army, with just sufficient equipment to enable them to be a terror to civilians, and to inflict death and wounds in their drunken quarrele, crowded the thoroughfares, formidable only to those whom they were intended to protect. The hotels and bars were filled with officers whese regiments were in a state of complete disorganization. The small tradespeople trembled for their little stores. Suddenly out comes an order, which I £ ntire, lest it might be said the words I e used exaggerate the condition of affairs at the period in question. * * * * * * [Here Mr. Russell quotes Gen.

N. the cause, prevention and cure of red or leaf rust on wheat. I dediewe it is caused by high winds breaking the fibre of the leaf and lettin, the sap ooze out, and coming in contact wit! the atmosphere, forms the red rust. If this is 80, belts of timber would be a preventive, (the trees would be good whether they favored the wheat or not) and I would invite my brother farmers to note the appearance of this rust in coming years and see if it does not make its ap- pearance soon after one or more days of high wind. F. D. Love. In many ins es which have been brought to our notice this season, fields protected by groves of timber, or elevated ground, from the Severe wind (at the time the rust attacked the wheat \ gaa ly) were and #re entirely exempt from the It is now generally conceded that rust is a parasite, col the severe heatin, wind probably assisted to break the epidermis and afford a lodgment for the parasite. We = @ following from ‘Klippart’s wheat ant. . Rust is a mushroom of the family of the ure- dines. Itisdevoloped upon both surfaces of the leaves, upon the stubble and upon the heads of the graminw with the appearance of little oval points, pulverulent, projecting, at first ae. and afterward becoming black he little streak which it at first forms in par- allel lines at the side of the fibres, finally spread, and joining, form large patches. hen the rust attacks the grain only feebly, it does not appear to be very injurious to it, but when it is considerable, it occasions serious losses. Among all the graming wheat appears to be the favorite of rust. If the streaks formed by the rust be atten- tively examined upon the stalk, but partioular- ly upon the leaf of wheat, the epidermis will be found split in every instance, and it will not be difficult to perceive that the sap extra- vasated by this split gives birth to the mush- room, or at least that it serves as a receptacle to the spores of this mushroom, raised from the ages by the rains, carried through the air the winds, or, what is perhaps more prob- able, absorbed in the earth with the nourishing juices of the plant. Ithas been remarked that be rust ordinarily shows itself when a very hot sun suddenly succeeds rains which have been somewhat prolonged. It isat the time when the evaporation of the water left on the stocks and leaves, going on too rapidly, occas- ions cracks in theepidermis or vitreous var- nish, which covers all parts, i the sap to deflect from its ord ‘Y course, that ciroumstances favorable to the development of the mushroom sre presented its whether they come from the interior o: rior. From the time, also, whena si wheat (is attacked by rust in a som se- rious manner, it begins to languish; its leaves | 324 uick! ins to dry up, and when the rains ace var the malady proceeds from the stalk to the head, which also soon turns red. e husk or nearest envelope of the grain then drying and adhering to this, soon occasions its decomposition, as much by the moisture retain- ed itas that which is maintained by the of the mashroom fixed upon itsgiumes. Tew not be rare it these oases to see fields or seminiform germs of the grain, and d re elves there the 4 levelop themselves there, the great- er sit be th aasogetrny eae There are certain places; as inSouth Carolina, for ex- ample, where the cultivation of wheat had to be loned, because the natural humidity of the soil. conjoined with the mists, which pre- vail so ently in that country, too greatly r the developmentof rust. On the contra- , it has been remarked that, in the vicinity oF tn se, or improved by means of lime or lesobed ashes, or manured with sea plants, the rust never exhibits itself in such abundance as to cause any considerable dam- . The following seems to be the reason: *SThereis found upon most ofthe gramine and nates the clgus ef ths leaves by little teeth, esaw of extreme fineness, but al- le of scratching the fingers of those who carelessly roealmeyeeapriete hake rear dl rubbing these leaves in the direction of their length. The greater then, the thickness of this and the stronger the stalk, the soil, lime, ashes, ete., disposition of the mate- ich enter into the composition of the vitreous material with which it is covered, it will necessarily absorb a ter quantity, th tself in better condition to ¢ sea-weeds which by their position produce soda in quantity, which also enters into the composition of glass will produce the same effect. Thus, too, it has been remarked, that the rust has shown itself much more rarely in silieious or sandy grounds. The rust is the less injurious to grain the nearer it bas arrived at maturity at the time it is attacked by it. The damage which it re- ceives from the sup which it (the roet) lon of its nourishment intercepts to appropriate it to itself, or which it leads away from its ordi- nary channels, it (the grain) suffers the more it has great need of this nourishment. ~=h\=L=*h == ____=_=>_=E EE SICK AND WOUNDED SOLDIERS IN HOSPITAL.
