Too report is in favor of authorizing the cominittco to sott'o ttie judi nie nt obtained against the city, March 21st, 1S59, for provided th it can bo settled for $7,000. Al the last meeting of the Board the mailer was referred with power to the Finance Committee in connection with tho Mayor.

Comptroller and Corporation Counsel, Aid. McLaughlin moved a reconsideration of this refer Our Generals and the War. Louis YI V. made a Marshal of one of his Generals after losing the most important town and fortress in his dominions it is not often that ru. lers can afford to be so gencrons and so just.

Of the fighting man success is the test; Napoleon never displayed so much genius as in conducting the retreat which ended at Paris and in his abdication but military men only can see capacity of this kind the people must have a tangible resultthey see the great general only in the light of such victories as Austrelitz and Marengo. De. feat is fatal to a commander, no matter what skill and courage he may show; soldiers, like others are apt to place the blame ordiscomliture on others rather than themselves if they are de. fi ated by snperiormtmbei's t've commander should not have brought them into action if by equal or smaller numbers it is because they were not shil fully arranged. Success only can inspire the confidence of soldiers, and when confidence i3 lack a the ablest chieftain can donothing.

The pro. grits of events is displacing rapidly the Generals on our side in this war. Gen. Butler after his march on Annapolis and his energetic proclamation therefrom wi's regarded as the coming man; a great Jbi trt mid fifteen thousand men was placed under hi control. Beyond holding Fortress Monroe lw is not able to do anything every attempt io extend his lines has been a disaster The people begin to murmur and remind one another that Butler is merely a sharp lawyer and that it is a great mistake to suppose tint such a man can know anything of warfare.

The Aatiomil lisaster.

It wouM be folly to shut our eyes to the magm. tudeand consequences of the defeat which overtook the Federal army at Bull's Rud. It was an overwhelming disaBter. The loss in killed and wounded though less than the first accounts of the buttle indicated, is undoubtedly immense aim the capture of guns and ammunition by the rebelB, thus augmenting their own warlike stores and diminishing those of the Government, renders the defeat of our troops fruitful of disastrous results. More than all is the demoralising effect of the panic which caused premature lliglit.

Yet all these icsults were tuch as might have been foreseen and of which those whose discernment was not clouded by the mUl of passion or the delirium of an irrational enthusiasm, had dim and sad lorebodings. It is a lamentable consideration that the lliglit of the United States army will go forth io the world as an imputation on northern courage and give a color of vcrilication to the Southern estimate of the northern ter in ihis rtspect. And yet in realily ihe ignominious flight of the troops was no evidence of exceptional pusillanimity in those who tied. volunteer army thai ever was called into existence will stand lire under disadvantageous circumstances after three months preparation.

Gentle men I return without my approval the res luuon adopted hv jour honorable body on theSih mstant, directing tho Commissioner of liepalrs and Supplies to me into contract with Geo. "tVinckler for building a house for Engine Company Xo.

0, lv. for tlio sum ol for the following reasons On the Sth of June last I vetoed a resolution awarding tin contruet for bull ling this house to John lloss, for if on the ground not only that it exceeded the appropriation made therefor, but also for llio additional reason that the amount in the treasury (about $2,300) in my indcrmcnt. amnio to erect a good, substantial structure for the purpose intended. The fact that your honorable body did not reconsider the resolution, but caused the matter to be readvertised for proposals, led inc lo be licve that the change urged by me to be made had received your sanction. On re exumining the plans and specifications forming Hie ba is of the contract now ordered lo be entered into, I find no change has been made, either in reference to the plan or alze of the building.

It is true that in order lo reduce the cost, and bring it within the amount appropriated, portions of tlio 'work to he dune and materials lo be furnisliod arc stricken from the specifications thus proceeding only in part lor the carrying out of the original intention, and furnishing the city an incomplete structure, to perfect which an additional outlay would hereafter be made. This would indirectly be obtaining the" object sought for, assent to which had been before ilenicd. I am satisfied that your hon. body, if aware of this will not give it your countenance. I am informed by experts that an engineer house, finished complete in all its parts, though perhaps less elegant and attractive in appearance than the one proposed but in all other respects substantial and commodious, and as fully adapted lo the wants of the company, can be creeled and finished tor ihe sum set apart for the purpose.

The plans and specifications, be drawn in a manner to accomplish this desirable result. 1 also return, without my nimroval. tho resolution by your lion, body al same meeting, ordering a similar contract to be made with John Keill, for building house for Hose Company No. 1, E. for Iho sum of SlTS f.

My reasons for this are to some extent tho same in fne oilier ease. The whole of the money in the Treasury for the purpose would, in the event of the proposed contract being made, become exhausted, and leave no balance out of whieh to defray the expense which would inevitably have to be incurred for completing the work, should it be done in conformity with Hie: present imperfectly drawn specifications, in hich much of the work as ihown in ihe plans is omitted, noi really indispensable, not provided for in either. The whole plan in its present shape is moreover drawn in so expensive a style of areliiteelure that the house cannot be built for the amount of money in the Treasury applicable thereto, and unless materially changed, a further appropriation will be needed. 1 need not again repeat what I have often expressed, that it is important that all expenditures "Idkcep within the appropriations made whenever ii i issible. JMAmix ivALBFi.Eiscu, Mayor.

Ordered pru.ied and laid on the table. Ari'OlNTMENT OF A WATER COMM1SSIOXE11. Aid. Taylor, 4th ward, moved that the communication of the Mayor relative to the appointment of a Water Commissioner, be taken from the table. Aid.

O'Keefe hoped not. lie did not see the necessity for bringing up this matter while there was so much business await ng the action of Ihe Board. The interest of the city haB suffered from the delay caused by motions for suspending the rules; there was business now awaiting the action of the Board of much more importance lhan the appointment of a Water Commissioner. Aid. Tcrnan took the same ground.

Ho had several important reports to present, but he felt a delicacy in asking a suspension of the rules for the purpose. He couhf noi see what object there could he in talcing the communication up. i there was no likelihood ot any choice' being effected this evening. The vote was taken on the suspension of the rules. The vote was strictly a party one to 8 tho Republicans voting for taking the communication from the table, and the Democrats against the motion.

The motion to take from the table was declared to be lout. Aid. Eisher raised the point of order that a suspension of tho rules was not necessary, communications from the May or being always in order, ami can be taken up at any time al this singe of the business. The Chair decided thepoinl of order not well taken a communication from the Mayor is in order al this stage of the business, but this communication having been laid on the table, it is by that taken out of this order of business. Aid.

Fisher appealed from the decision of the Chair. Aid. Strong thought Ihftt according to Parliamentary law tnd llic absence of any special rule of the Board the Alderman of ihelEKh was correct, but if ihe Aid. would refer to rule 4, he would see that ihe epiesiion was there provided for. He thought the Chair had decided correctly.

M. F. Odeli1 The Now York papers have Colonel VB killed, whereas he is only wounded, and thitt fatally. We joice to hear it. So it may be many others whose friends now mourn theiri posed loss.

The Noble Conduct of the Thirteen Regiment. The Thirteenth Regiment were making pre: i tions to come home, their term of three mo service having expired to day but the glr news of the disastrous defeat of the Un forces having reached them, they consulte gcthcr, and unanimously resolved to enlis ir the war. A messenger was sent to Washin to offer their services to the War Departn All would have been glad to see their frieuiHd acquaintances, who were making preparatioio receive them and give them a glorious welck but the retreat of that splendid column fired ir zeal for the cause they themselves had takelp arms, and they determined to lend a helping id in wiping out the disgrace which has temporSy and only temporarily overtaken our fols and clouded the glorious banner of the Uijn All honor and praise to the glorious Thirteeh. Such men as they arc reeded, and they are rpy and willing to take fbe part assigned to thcin the Ik Id of battle. The regiment is not tly composed of excellent material, but is splentjly disciplined, and we doubt if double their nutier in a fair field fight could withstand them.

Tiir brethren of the Fourteenth fought like las Their Colonel is wounded, and Lieutenant pi ocel, with many of the rank and file, are iw lying on the gory field of battle. They did Unduly and they did it well. Veterans in army vice could not have done better, and the meof the Thirteenth are ready to avenge their deh They will doubtless be accepted for the the probability is that they will take the field n. der General McClellan, who according to list advices, is to take supreme command of thias yet defeated eolumr. THE KILLED ASD TIIE WOU.VDEn.

There are many reports as to the killed ad wonnded in the 14th regiment, and it is safeto say that very little reliable intelligence has been received in regard thereto. Parents, sos brothers, friends, are all intensely anxious to 'earn the facts, and many take it for granted tat not having heard of those they desire to bar from since the battle, that they are amongst be slaiD. The report yesterday was that seveity were killed. This we believe to be grossly ad cruelly exaggerated. We do not believe that lie killed, wounded and missing exceed half tint number.

The reports about the Fire Zoutres were that all bnt tw'o hundred had been kilid, but up to last night'over six hundred had reprt ed themselves at the encampment. So with oiler regiments, and so it will be with the 14th wltn all the facts are known. Lieut. Col. Fowleris reported killed, but even that is not absolutely certain.

Still it may be so. A better officer oi a more humane, kind, man never existed. His hss will be greatly felt. The following are the names of those who wire probably killed and wounded, from Brooklyi' and those who are known here KILLED. Lieutenant Colonel Fowler, Fourteenth Eeginictit.

It is also reported that Brock Carroll of the 12 Regiment is killed. He was formerly a policeman of the precinct. There is likewise a report that private Fagan of the 14th was wounded, and Lawrence Hanley of the same regiment. THE 7iST REGIMENT. The 71st regiment, which suffered so severely contains a large number of the young men of Brooklyn.

Amongst them is a son, brother and brother in law of Demas Strong, Alderl man of the 13th ward. The Alderman received the following dispatch from his son last evctiing "Washington, July 22, ISfil. I am here. Bill and George are ail right, but have not come in yet. Seventy first badly cut up.

now OUR TROOPS F0U0UT. The editor of the New York Times writes as follows to his paper in relation to the splendid bearing of our troops "I hear nothing on every side but the warmest and heartiest commendation of our troops. They fought like veterans. The rebels did not, in a single instance, stand before them in a charge, and were Ehaken by every volley of their musketry. I do not mean to praise any one at the expense of another.

The Sixty ninth fought with splendid and tenacious courage: They charged batteries two or three timeB, and would have taken and held them but for the reinforcements which were constantly and 6teadily poured in. Indeed it was to this fact alone that the comparative success of the rebels is due: We had not over 26,000 men in action, the reBt being held behind as reserves at Centreville; while the enemy mu6t have numbered at least 00,000. Col. Corcoran is wounded in the arm. The Sixty ninth charged and carried fourbatteries.and at one time lost its colors.

They were recevered by the Zouaves, and restored to the Sixty ninth. HOW TI1EY FELT. Another correspondent writes as follows as to the feeling of the men after the defeat "I cannot see that the spirits of our men have been destroyed by their reverses. Not one that I have seen bnt wauls to renew the fight as soon as possible. The Zouaves cry for revenge, and the Bixty ninth andSevety ninth and Seveuty first declare their determination to have two lives for every man of their regiments that are killed or wonnded.

I heard a Massachusetts man who was in the light, and whose time was out, say that he was homesick enough until last night, but that now hb would hot go home until this war was ended, and that nine out of twelve of his regiment would enlist for the war without coins home."

As they had made all preparations for returning this week, their thoughts turning to the hearts made warm by the expectation of reunion, it must be highly gratifying to their legion of friends to know that they so promptly sacrificed their personal pleasure to patriotism, and that they arc worthy ol our city tint! country. s.

Belknap advocated the adoption orthe report; ho saitl the present salary was $500, which he considered insufficient lor the services rendered and hardly adenuate to support a man's familv. Aid. Taylor (4th ward) hoped that at this time, when economy was necessary, this increase would not he granted. Aid. Wallace believed that before Saturday night he could find 100 men who would beablotogive satisfaction to ihis Board, and who wonld be glad to get a salary of $500.

Aid. Ternan desired to know what the duties of the bell ringers were. Aid. Belknap said Ihcy were obliged to ho on duty in the tower of the City Hall hours out of the 2'. He said the men who now fulfilled the duty did it very faithfully; formerly this was not the case, and fires frequently were going 12 or 15 minutes before any alarm was given.

Aid. Strong said that the report did credit to the hearts of the gentlemen who made it; at other times perhaps it would oe proper to pass the resolution. He reminded the gentlemen that there were four or five bell ringers in the Hastcrn District gentlemen who ring their bells just as faithfully as the Ecntlcnien in this district; they would very properly expect a like advance, and in the aggregate this would he a considerable Item to the tax payers. Tae Alderman was opposed to increasing the salaries at this time. Aid.

Ternan believed that for eight hours' watching at the top of the City Hall $2 per day would not be unreasonable; he favored economy, but he also favored giving fair salaries and exacting a faithful performance of the duly. The taxes of this city and of other large cities are noi increased by giving its employees fair salaries, but by corruption. The Alderman oonceeded that men might be ha1 for $500 per annum, but this was no argument the City Railroad hired men at the lowest wages. the consequence was that many of their conductors were eiuite incompetent to perlorm tno dimes assigned mem.

Important from the South Louisville, July 20. The report of heivy Rales of tobacco havine been recently made in New Orleans, is confirmed: and it is said, on good s.uthority that the purchase was on account of the French government. Of course, now that the tobacco is bought it must be (jot to sea, and it is notimnrobnhle but what this will be the first test on tne part, oi ranee or me strength ot the ble eliade.

Those who appear well informed, assert that the tobacco would never ive been purchased had it not been pretty clear that a way would be found to ship it to its destination. The landing of arms and lead by the privateer Sumierat New Orleans, is by no means improbable, as the vessel in which ihey were shipped (the Bamberg) was off the Cuban coast at about the Eame time aB the Sumter, with her sugar prizeB. It is known positively that those arms and lead were on the Bamberg, and further, thit on hearing of the blockade of the Mississippi she made for Bubo, where she was fallen in with the latter vessel. Such is the report, and it is believed to be substantially trne. Bat how is it the Sumter can go in and out of the Louisiana ports in ele linnce of the blockade? The Bamberg, which brought over the rifles, c.mnon and lead front Liverpool, is owned in New Orleans, and ir merly ran between that port and Hivre.

The Commissioners are In the best of spirits, and Judge Louisiana, bad, from his commanding appearance, and fluency in speaking French, become a great favorite in leatlice circles.

The correspondent adds that the Southern edeorances were fully and promptly recognized that the Confederate ilg waved unmolested from Havre and Liverpool, and that the Southerners traveling In France hud done so without the usual aid of a vise from the United St itea Consul. The reports of a treaty with Spain, guaranteeing to her heir American possessions, including Cuba and St.

In times of peace the mangled remains of. one human victim will cause a shudder to run through the spectators; in war limes the heart becomes steeled and lott to all feelings of itnderce. and except thoi0 who have relatives among the victims, there are lew citizens at either section of the union who to day amid the exaltation of victory or the gloom of defeat, give more than a passing thought to the thousands whose shattered remains strew the Virginian Golgotha. So it is that men are moulded to be soldiers. Men whose lives are spent arj.id camps and battles become inured to all the ghastly vicissitudes of war.

But men drawn from the peaceful pursuits of life, from the farm, the counter, the workshop, though gifted with manly attributes, will fall back when a troop of veterans would advance and close up their ranks though thinned again and again. It the Southern rebellion were a riot as President Lincoln gravely decided to consider it, then a hastily mustered militia is always competent to suppress a riot. For a war, a gigantic civil war, whose magnitude has hardly ever been equalled' standing armies alone will suffice, though it required years to create them. The disaster of Hull's Run was owing in no small degree to the spirit in which the United States troops went into the contest. Regiments marched to ihe scene as if going on a pic nic or target excursion.

It was impossible not to be struck with the prevalence of this idea even among the troops that left this vicinity. Young the troops were chiefly, rushed to the scene of toifliet, as if they went to contend a game o'' 'Jase ball or engage in a holiday parade. To "whip ihe was tie objees, and that they should meet ilh formidable resistance was an idea they setmtQ utterly iucapable of entertaining. Indeed it would bine been "treason" and "seces ii," a Kw weeks ngo, to hint the necessity of stenur us ive on she pai of those who went foith to cot qnir ten millions ol American zees. The fiartnl hnvt.o which has taken pl.ee is a ghastly const quel ee of the need which has been given to the slaueierous agitators who aided to bring about ilie war by itieueing cither section of the Union to misunderstand, undervalue and despise the other.

The iimi ediate causes of the reverse are evident enough. The men who have ruled in Wash, ington, since 4th of March, are as iucapible of conducting war as preserving peace. While determined to rush into premature hostilities, they refused to accept the services of the most effective arm of the militia power of the country They would not receive cavalry regiments. Iii this city a fine regiment was offered months ago and rtfustd. The administration also pushed General Scott into giving the rebels battle on their own terms, on the ground they selectedi and with every possible advantage in their favor.

They were impelled to do this by the clamor of the abolition wing of the Republican party a faction the most bloody, cowardly and atrocious that ever disgraced history a party with the head of an idiot and the heart of a fiend; and its organ, the Iribunc, has governed the country since the 4lh ot lust March. The result is before the woild, and every American citizen hangs his head and bis chteks burn red to contemplate it We need not attempt to imitate the example of Mr. Lincoln when he assumed his office and could not or would not see that any disunion existed, by shutting our eyes to the consequences ol the first great battle of the campaign. What a commentary the intelligence will be when it reaches Europe on the bunkum broggadocia of Mr. Seward.

It will be very likely to induce both England and France to recognise the independence of the South at once and terminate the imperfect blockade. This will be its eflect abroad. Wbal will De its results here Until we learn whether the rebels have the power or intention to capture Washington, attention must be concentrated on that point. We believe the people of the North will instantly rally to defend the stat of gove) r.ment, even under the benumbing influence of news. Hut they should reluse peremptorily to be led to slaughter by ineonipettnt and imbecile Republican politicians.

If the federal government is to place mother army in the field it must put generals at their head and leave the Pierces and pettifoggers at home. Banks Is to supersede Patterson. "What capacities of generalship has Banks what eapaciti ts con he have A man must have a certain amount of experience to drive mud cart or lead a horBe to a pond. Does the ability to lend an army come by nature And if the genius lor military command is a natural endowment, does it not require a knowledge of the of war to be superadded We know Banks has not the one, what right have we to suppose that he bus the othtr If the war is to continue and continue under the auspices that have ruled it so far, the North may as well give up the ship at once. The Chicago platform and the interests and claims of the Republican party and its leading members have had everything sacrificed to them so far they must endeavor to give place to the interests of a perishing nation, or the North, unless stricken with madness will refuse to commit suicide at their hidiltmr cowardly brutalities of.

Tribune mildly recommend that he be shot, because be had not more skill, or did not make a better use of whatever knowledge he may pos. sess. The Tribune reminds its readers that Ad miral Byng was shot for cowardice at Minorca' It is now conceded that Admiral Byng was shot to cover the disgrace an English Ministry brought upon themselves by ordering a movement to be made which did not succeed.

The Tribune has been shouting "on to Richmond for weeks, and we have, no doubt it desires to disguise its own folly, as the British Ministry did, by singling out an object for popular vengeance. "If," says Greeley, with the line phiianthrophy which distin guishes bim "If the cross of St. Gbcrge is stain al uitli innocent blood that of BynH, the naee of England's nautical history shines with an eternal glory." The diaster at Bull's Run necessitates the withdrawal of General McDowell. Those who hound ed our army on, now blame him for attacking the army of the enemy, because it was behind entrenchments, and in stronger force than the army he led. There is not a man in the country who reads a newspaper, but knew, weeks ago, that the Confederate army was in strong force behind elaborate entrenchments they knew the enemy was officered by Lee, Beauregard, and other distinguished Generals but fanatics, caring for nothing but to be well out of danger themselves, still kept braying "On to Richmond It is today a more alarming fact than the defeat of Sunday, that the intemperate harangues of Greeley and his fanatical followers are not unheeded in Washington until they are, the skill of Napoleon, the courage of Ney, and all the science of Yauban, are not sufficient to achieve victory, because these fools and knaves will Dot allow those who understand their business to perform it in their own way.

Gen. McClellan will take the place of McDowell, all, or nearly all, the success achieved by the fedl eral army in this contest has been won by the division he commanded in Western Virginia. His record gives every guarantee lor his capicity to perform the arduous duty to which he is called McClellan was born in Philadelphia, and is now in his thirty fifth year. He was educated at West Point, andgraduated inlS2(i with the rank ofBre vet Second Lieutenant of Engineers. He was in the Mexican war, and distinguished himself in several engagements, for which he was promoted to the rank of Captain.

After the war he returned to West Point and occupied himself in mastering his profession. He introduced the bayonet exercise into the army, and translated and adapt, ed a manual which has since become a text book for the service. During the summer and fall ot 1 Sol he superintended the construction of Tort Delaware, and in the succeeding spring was assigned to duty in the expedition for the explora. tion of the Red river. Thence he was ordered direct to Texas as a senior engineer, and engaged for some months in surveying tiie rivers and harbors of that State.

In 1853 he was ordered to the Pacific coaat in command of the western division of the survey of the North Pacific Railroad route, lit returned to the East in 1S54, on duty connected with the Pacific survey, and was engaged also in secret service to the West Indies. The next year he received a commission in the first regiment of cavalry, and was appointed a member Of the commission which went to the seat of war in the Crimea and in Northern Russia. Colonel Richard Delafield, one of his colleagues, is now an oiiicer in the rebel army, and Major Alfred Mor dica, the third member of the commission, a short time ago resigned the superintendency of the Troy Arsenal. Major McClellan's report on the "Organization of European Armies and the Operations of the War," a quarto volume, embodying the result of his observations in the Crimea, greatly enhanced his reputation as a scientific sol. ditr.

In the event of Gen. Scott's death he will succeed him; defeat, however, might assign him to the fate which has overtaken his predecessor. To avoid it, nothing is more necessary than to value at its true worth the intemperate zeal of the men who did so much to cause this bitter war, and who will not allow the country to come honorably out ol it if they are permitted to shape the policy of its government and the movements of ts army. State Eights. It is to be hoped that even if he rebels attempt the capture of Washington there are sufficient forces still at the command of Gen.

Scott to prevent its capture. There are men inarms in the North who have not been called upon and who will fly to Washington at a moment's notice. Bnt even if Washington should be taken, the North will not be conquered or powerless. It still contains a cluster of powerful Jree states capable of raising armies, securing loans and preserving the government at least over themselves. It is well that the stupid federalists doctrines of Mr.

Lincoln have not taken practical effect, and that the states are independent and do not hold the same relation to the Republic at large as counties in a state. If that doctrine were in force, and Mr. Lincoln should be forced to leave Washington, what would he amount to How would he raise men or money But the sovereign states of the North still exist and their governments can raise loan3 and men, and support and reinstate the federal authorities in power. If Mr. Lincoln's federalism id been made to prevail, he would simply have scuttled the ship that, in the last emergency which we hope may never arise, could olono bear him over the bottomless ocean ofhnarchy and chaos.
