The alleged efficiency of gun- boats against heavier vessels has been dis- roved. The Confederates appear to have wilt upon this theory at first, but their -‘mos- quito flotillas’’ have never succeeded. Neither at Port Royal er Roanoke did their swarm of inboats produce the least effect against the jarge ships of the Federals. Vessels of this class operating upon rivers, in conjunction with land forces, have proved of the greatest service; indeed, the Northerners owe most of their successes te them; but in narrow seas and inst heavy frigates or sloops the small craft have been found as useless asa fleet of canoes. No gunboats, as far as we can judge, will do the work of our Warriors@@or will any frigate, however well armed or commanded, be able to make wood stand against iron. Our obligations in this matter have proved costly. but it is evident that the “reconstruction of our navy’? was not commenced an hour too soon. BRITISH OPINION OF THE NAVAL BAT- TLE IN HAMPTON KOADS. ——s- — The ution im Naval Warfare. ee British Opinion of the Fight Betwsen the Merrimac and Monttor—All Praise to the Rebel Steamer and Nothing of the Union Vessel—Confusion and Mistakes of the London Journals. [From the La tied xno “ye The campaign in Virginia has at last 2. A naval battle and a ral advance of the Federal army on the Potomac are the events which we record to-day. The first of these is one of the mest interesting incidents that have marked the war. For the first time the new- est applications of science have been tested in 8 fight between foes of equal - Who would have thought it ble that after Eng- land and France had theorized so long on iron-plated and iron-prowed vessels the first real trial should be made by the inhabitants of the peaceful New World, tin unnatural strife, and furthermore, victory should rest with the party jess versed in naval tactics and construction ” Though for a long time there has been men- tion of the Merrimac in the Southern papers, we were not prepared for the achievements in the James river. The Confederate frigate seems to have gained an easy victory over her wooden opponents. The accounts of the action are rather vague, but it appears that she dis- abled the Cumberland and the Congress in a very short time, fulfilling in the most complete manner the expectations that have been formed concerning iron-plated vessels. She received the broadsides of two of her opponents ai hundred yards without sustaining any dam She then ran into the Cumberland with her iron prow and laid open her sides. Thus, both in defence and attack, the Merrimac has realized the calculation of European con- structors. It must now be looked upon as proved that wooden vessels go to sure and epeedy defeat whenever they venture iato action against an iron-plated adversary. Those who object to iron sides that they are not invulnerable, inasmuch as, however stron; the ship may be, cannon can be construe powerful enough to pierce it, must, we think, abandoned their toe eaptious criticism. We see in the Merrimac that a ressel can be made practically invainerable even to the heavy naval guns which are at present in use. Noth- ing now remains for our Admiralty but to dis- continue the building of wooden vessels, and to convert all that will bear it into machines of war resembling the Confederate frigate. The only real opponent which the Merrimac found was another iron plated frigate, and, had it not been for this vessel, it is believed that the Merrimac might have destroyed the whole Federal squadron. The Merrimac is described ss “covered with sloping iron plates, extending two feet below the water line, and meeting above like the roof of a house.”’ This peculiarity of construction may possibly not be necessary to efficiency; but, 48,8 vessel thus built has sctually made a great success, it would be worth while fully to examine the pinciple before constructing any more of our own on the pian already adopted The equipment of the Merrimac shows that there are good heads in the Navy Department of the South, and the gallant manner in which she was handled in action is a token that the Confederate courage is still as high as ever. Bat it is not se sea fights that the fortunes of the new Republic are to be determined. The brilliant affair of the James river wil!, no Joubt, do mach to reanimste the Southerners after their successive defeats, but in itself it is of +08 PRENTICEANA. Miss Anna E. Dickinson, a female abolition- ist, delivered a violertt anti-slavery lecture in Philadelphia tast week. Like the rest of the abolitionists, she argued that slavery is not constitutional, inasmuch as the word slaver: isn’t contained in the Constitution. Oh, well, the word lady isn’t contained in the Constitu- tion, but does Miss D infer that it is unconsti- tutional to be a iady ? An Englishman who has travelled all through our country says that the negroes of the Border States are finer specimens of hu- manity than those of the Cotton States or than the free colored men of the North. Perhaps in the Cotton States the race has degenerated by amalgamation with fire-eaters. and in the North by amalgamation with abolitionists. The Richmond Whig says that the Confed- erate Government is ‘‘an expensive Govern- ment after all.’’ Yes, those who have to en- dure the curse of living under it have good cause to know thatit is ‘‘an expensive Govern- ment after all’’—after ull they have got, and more teo We learn from those who have seen the reb- el troops that they seem very vain of their shirt-tails. Almost every man of them makes a large display of that beautiful decoration— displays it fying straight out behind him A Montgomery paper says that there has not been a fourth part as much rain in the South as in the North, se that, while our roads are all mud, theirs are hard and solid. In more senses than one the ways of the trans- gressors are hard. The Richmond Inquirer says that the Fede- ral Government is ‘worth nothing.’’ The reb- el Government is worth-less Congress seems likely to lay a heavy tax on dogs. We have no objection if they can make the dogs pay it. When you see a drunken rebel biack with mud, you may conclude that he has dyed in the last ditch The Mobile Register calls us an abolitionist. That's a black lie—though old enough to be gray. It is our glory to have taken one Nashville» and our shame not to have taken another. e~ a RC I Pi ES tle importance.

Batt ~The Moacssakccctast of tae pte ese Number iis don't seem to fit our Foote Navy « Work of Necessity [Prom the London Times, March > ] When Presiden: ! ‘avis, in his recent message tu his constituents, reviewed the position of the Southern Confederacy, he expressed the hope that the navy of the seceding States would soon contribute something towards the success of the cause. Those expectations have certainly been justified by the naval victory which we yesterday reported—a victory gained over a Federal force of great strength, and in exactly. They say that the secession ladies are shock- ingly bitter. We suspect they are; ut any rate we wouldn't have one of them touch our lips for the world. ‘Ye shouldn’t expect to get the bitter out of cur mouth for a month If Gen. McClellan shall win, 2s we trust he soon will, a great victory, we wonder which will acatter in the greater consternation—his enemies before him or his enemies behind him. If rebel ladies, by insulting Unio officers and soilders, show that they don’t understand the proprieties of their station, they had bet- ter be taken to the statfon-house to learn. The Editor of the N. 0. Delta swears that he will never support the Stars and Stripes. He may have to support the stripes if he doesn’t behave himself. We shouldn't wonder if, wherever rebels against the Constitution, such as .Wendell Phillips, make appointments to lecture, the patriotic hens were to commence laying rotten eggs @ week beforehand. The Charleston Mercury thinks that the Southera Confederacy will soon be delivered. We wonder what sort of a little monster the brat will be. The Democrat thinks that Henry A. Wise is not a coward. Perhaps he isn’t; but, if he were one, he would endaubiedly act very much as he does The fact that a man may have gone to a military muster when he was a boy is hardly 4 sufficient reason for making him a Brigadier General.

The Congress and the Cum- berland carried between them seventy-four guns; and the Minnesota and the St. Lawrence ninety more. The Minnesota, however, got aground, and could, therefore, neither come up herself ner tow the St. Lawrence into ac- tion. The es and her attendants had -. consequently only one frigate and a sloop to deal with, and it seems thet she took the re cbes to herself, and left the frigate.to the other steamers. The Cumberland had not a chance against her. She received two broadsides one hundred yard’s distance without sustain. ing any damage, and then deliberately ran into the sloop with an iron prow constructed for this special purpose, and cut her sides open After this she poured a broadside into her an- tu jist, dashed ather once more, and then left her to sink. Nothing could be more suc- cessful or destructive than her maneuvres. Next morning, however, she found an enemy more worthy of her. During the night the new floating battery, called the Monitor, came round to retrieve the honor of the Federal flag. This 1s the vessel designed by Mr. J. Ericsson, » of New York, and is ove of the three iron-clad structures recommended by the Federal Com- usissioners for adoption in A: ining that she has been the original specifications. i. ing battery, propelled by steam at a slow rate, and not qualified for much beyond coast ser- viee, in smooth water. She isof 1,200 tons burthen only, is 172 feet long, and has 41 feet breadth of beam. The general plan of the ves- sel was so novel a3 to surprise even a people secustomed to daring inventions, but she seems to have fulfilled the hopes of the projector. What armament she actually carried we have not yet learned; but as soon as the Merrimae saw ber she attacked her, and then ensued the first battle ever fought between iron-clad ships ‘Lhe results were most remarkabic. The two vessels engaged each other at close quarters for five hours, after which period, but then only, was the armor of one of them perforated by shot. It was the Monitor which thus drew the first blood, and the Merrimac then retired. It does not seem, however, that s! as dis- abled, snd we are expressly assured that on board the Monitor not a man was hurt. Pacts like these may well induce us to re- fect. We find that a wooden vessel when matched against an iron one is literally as + helpless as was predieted.

The Moni- ‘or was to be finished in one hundred days, and the Constitution which constitutes it a country! The Germans tell us much about ‘the grape eure.”’ We guess that the grape-vine cure will have to be tried upon this rebellion. Our military authorities will not hang fire, however large a business they may do in hang- ing fire-eaters. A New Orleans paper mockingly proffers us the freedom of that city. That city has no freedom Let Jeff Davis just wait till he gets to the end of the rope, and then he can have full swing. BALTIMORE PREssrteRY—Second Day's Pro- eredings.—Body met at 9% o'clock.
