JOSIAH CR \WF ORD, The Effect of Secretary Stanton’sJlnterfering with General McClellan—English Criticism on the Former. It is stated on good authority that Gen. .McClellan’s plan o( the campaign, and object in landing at Yorktown. was to draw the rebels there in force to resist his march to Richmond, then have Gen McDowell push across the Lead of the peninsula. and enclose the rebels in <. trap from which they could not extricate themselves But the plan was changed at Washington, after McClellan left for Yorktown, and without his knowledge. The result is the escape of the rebels.— For once the order to ’pursue and des .rcy” the rebels is not enforced. Without any cause —unless it be the fear of too great success on the part of Gen. MeClalian —Stanton kept Gen. McDowell loitering in the neighborhood of Fredericksburg until the rebels escaped. Gen. McClellan has been censured for the inactivity of our forces operating against Savannah and ( barkston, but it now turns out that the object is to keep , the rebels at those places in force, by a . threatened attack, to prevent them from ( joining Beauregard in the Mississippi val- . ley. or Johnson in Virginia. The last number of Blackwood s maga- _ tine hits Stanton’s strategy a hard knock It says: The new Secietsry of ar of the north disclaims the existence of any < ether campaign then advancing straight t upon the enemy; in a few sentences of 1 Puritanism and bad grammar, sits aside J all the theories of strategists. The next, t time we are involved in hostilities, it wi.l, certain'? count for several points in our , favor, if the war department of ti e enemy is in the hands ;-f such a presumptuous fanatic rs Mr. E M. Stanton. It would appear that our Secretary of War has abundance of energy, but lacks discretion and comprehecsivent ss. He can see but one move ahead in the tre- j mendous game we are j laying, else he ( fears t'.e rising popularity of some of our Generals, anl uses his remark ih'a talent , in disarranging their plans. Stanton is looking ahead, as well a« others Why Cail Shurz Entered the Army. Carl Shurz in alluding to his motive* ' for entering the army, and in reply to the , altacks of l.is Republican friends says: < It is »n evil-threatening fact that the ar- t tnv is in the hands of tna pro-slavery ele- f merits. It is also certain that the army t w;,l throw e. heavy weight in the scale ’ by solving some ol the burn'ng questions ' of the lime. lie inadvertently pays a high compliment to the Democrali- party, when he says the "army is in the hands of the proslavery elements,” by which he means that the army is politically Democratic. The confession of his motives for taking a position ti the army shows that he has little sympathy for the Government, fur the •uppeession of the rebellion; for does J e not in so many words say t ! at he wishes t n change the army into a poldieal machine, subver-’ve to the wishes of the Abolitionists. Could he hi'p the canse of Abolitionism by figh’ing for J-ff Davis, he w >uld soon he with him. News Items. The ir a-cl td steamer Ironsides was launched at Philadelphia on the 10th, tn«t. Eight rebel gunboats -iron-plnted attacked Com. Foot’s fl-et or. Saturday morning. Three of their boats were destroyed. Only six boats were engaged on our side, and but one of them was injured. Gen. Burnside has designed and building a "railroad monitor, or locomotive iron-plated battery, to carry two guns, ~.se st cash end to be used in the attack Goidsboro,

Under date of Aprij 27, Beauregard issued an address to the planters, saying; < ‘•The casualties of wai have opened the Mississippi to our enemies. The time has therefore come to test the earnestness of all classes, and I call on all patriotic planters owning cotton in the possible reach ol our enemies, to apply the torch to it without delry or hesitation.” The Governor of Alabama has also issued a proclamation, warning planters that if they plant more than one acre oPcotton to the hand, "they will not be allowed to enjoy the fruits of such s selfish and unpatriotic course.” The Little R ck (Ark.)True Democrat woul I like to cel brate the anniversary of the secession of Arkansas as a holiday, but wisely thinks “the times are too diej >iuted n »w for rejoicings of any kind.” Congressional Convention. We notice considerable dissatisfaction prevailing in the district in regard to the proposed congressional convention at Anderson on the 22nd. Several counties in the district, we un lerstand, have refused to appoint delegates — they maintaining ihe call is ii regular. With such feeling existing, and the probability of but a per- , tion of the district being represented, no delegates will be sent from this county to that convention. We are in favor of the proposition made by the Bluffton Banner, of last week, to have the congressional Central Committee open a correspondence, and agree upon a lime and place for holding the convention, XeT The conservative members of Congress have had a meeting to determine upon some united course of action that will defeat the radical R-publicans in their proposed extreme measures, in regard to slaverv and the confiscation of the property of rebels. Such extreme 1 • a •' • H measures being uncalled for, and are in- . tended to indefinitely prolong the strug- • gle. ! ’ We have no later news from Hal- f leek’s or McClellan's armies than that in lie dispatches. The next important news 1 from Corinth will doubtless be a despera'e ‘ fight and defeat of Beauregard. And , the rebels have but ope more stand to t make, before Richmond is ours. — I XtF The President has issn-J a -•-•>- • elatnatioo declaring that t e blockade of i the. ports of Beau'ort, Port Roys and _ New Orleans ehall cease after the firs’, of , June, with limited restrictions in regard t to trade, ' rt , XSF" Six'? tbo-jsar l acres of land has been burn ’ over on Lint Is’a" I, destroyed an immense amount of property.

HIGHLY INTERESTING FROM M’CLELLAN’S COLUMN. OUR ADV ANCE 88 MILES FROM RICHTheir Possible Stand Fifteen Miles from the Capital—Sharp Skirmishing—well Conducted Retreat of the Rebels. New rent Col’bt House,Ya. May 10 3 P, M —The pursuit of the retreating rebels by our troops, undei coromandof Gen. Stoneman. has in every respect been successful His headquarters are now here,' within twenty-seven miles of Richmond, while the advance, consisting of the Eight Illinois Cavalry, is five miles ahead. The enemy is in sight, but gradually falling back. The inhabitantshave in nearly every instance left, but from the best information that has been obtained, the enemy will make a stand at Bottom Bridge, fifteen miles from Richmond, and the head waters of the Chicahominv river. Gen McClellan, with the main bodr of the army, is rapidly following up, within a few miles. Cumberland, a small town on the Pomonky river, and two miles and a hall from here, was deserted by the enemy, and is now occupied by our troops. There are no rebels to be seen as reported by our scouts this side of the Chien- <

hominy river, exempt on the direct road co Richmond. ' The force under Gen. S’.onemnn, consis’ed of the 2d Rhode Island and 9th Pcnsylvania regiments nf light artillery andthe 6th cavalry under Major Williams The rear guard of the enemy which our men had to drive before them, was Gen Longstreets division, consisting of ten regiments of the Ist Virginia cavalry. Our advance was this morning strengthened, on ascertaining the force of t e enemy, bv the Bth Illinois Cavalry and two regiments of the Ist New Jersey brigade. The enemv on leaving here this forenoon fired two buildings containing commissary and quartermaster’s stores. The engagement yesterday between our dvance and the enemy’s rear, at Slater’s Mills, three miles from here, resulted in 14 of the enemy’s cavalry being k'lled and several taken prisoners. They secured their wounded. The 6th CsvaGy.i which made a most br iant charge,’bad 3 men killed, 3 men missing, and 13 wounded.

Precisely at i half past four mi explosion took place w. ich made the earth and waler tremble fir miles around. In the midst of the j bright dime which shot up in the distance j the timber and iron of a steamer could be seen dying through the air; no doubt was entertained that the Merrimac had ecased to exist.

From men found on the Island we ascertained that the M*rrimae had laid during Saturday at a point nearly a mile below the head of the Island.

HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM FORTRESS MONROE. Norfolk Captured—The Iron-clad Merrimac Destroyed. Wabhtxgtoh, May ID —The following was received at the War Department ibis morning: . Fortress Monroe, May 10 —12 midnight.—Norfolk is ours, and aho Ports, mouth and Navy Yard. Gen. Wool having completed the lauding of his forces at Willoughby Point at about 9 o’clock ' this morning, commenced his march oo Norfolk with five thousand men. Secralary Chase accoropinied the General. — Above five miles from the landing place, a rebel battery was found on the opposite side of the bridge over Tanner’s Creek. After a few discharges of companies of infantry, tne rebels burned the bridge, and thus compelled our forces to march around five miles further At 5 o’clock in the afternoon our forces were met by a delegation ol citizens, and the city was : formally surrendered. Our troops marched in, and we now have possession. General Viele is in command as military Govenor of Norfolk. The city and nav> yard were not burned. The fires which have been seen for some hours proved to be the woods on fire. General Wool and Secretary Chase returned about 11, o* clock to night. Generai Huger withdrew bis force without a battle.

The Meiriwac is still off Sewall’s Point. Commodore Rogers, expedition was beared fiom tbit afternoon, ascending the James river. The reports from Genera) McClellan are favorable. [Signed] Edwin M. Stant >n. , Norfolk, Sunday Morning.—The N»I vy Yard has been completely destroyed, , together with a very large camber of steamboats and other vessels. Numerous Union flags are flying in Portsmouth. The place is occupied by the Sixteenth Massachusetts Regiment.— Gen. Viele has established his headquarters in the Customhouse, formeily occupied by Gen. Huger. Thenadouai flag was raised for the first time this mo ning. It was saluted by the guard, and enthusiastically cheered. T e. Monitor an 1 N iugtuck nave just arrived. A number of other vessels irom the fleet are also coming up. The night passed quietly. At present everything is perfectly quiet, and order is entirely restcred. Ali the public property is occupied Gen. Wool and Com. Goidborough have just arrived on the Baltimore. The policy of the authority here is to allow everything logo on with as little interruption as possibieA general feeling of confidence aeemes to prevail, and the Union sentiments begin to show itseH. Fifty-two guns were found at Craney Island this morning by Captain Case. The following has just been recived: Fortress Monroe. May 11. — P. H.

Latest from Corinth—'.innob in Pope’s Division—Onr Loss Ac. fee. Farmixgtox. Miss. M«v 1! —General Pope’s affair here on the shh resulted in a loss on our side of 2! killed. 14 woanded and 10 missing Piumer’s h-».-aof Staley’s division and Palmer's b-gaieof Paine’s division were al ng engaged on our side. Groesbeck’s brigade was not engaged, but was sent to support artillery. Among the killed on our si-'r has Lientehant-Colonel Miles, «f the 47th Illinois The is no sort of doubt we could . have held our ground, but Pope was forbidden to re-enforce, as that would have brought on a general engagement on our 1 ft, and so had to withdraw his brigade. The enemy made no pursuit, and so occupied the ground again next morning.— Our left occupies its old position, four miles to the east of Corinth. The center and right are now not over four or four and a half miles from the enemy’s works. Pope's adaanee is hardly ihree mites. It is utterly useless to attempt predicting when an attack may be made. Extra •applies are accumulating at Monterey. The roads are excellent, aud Bothh.g seems likely to prolong delav except the want of the thorough knowledge of the enemy's position aud strength. The center and fight are advancing today. It is not iinposs bie we may soon be engaged in the construction of parallel trenches and regular approaches, though one or two things, nee*«aarv Before laying a siege, have not been plishedGeneral Halleck and his entire 'staff have been on the front all day to-day directing movements in person. There are indications of rain again, which of course would delay everything Surgeon W. R Thrall, of the Twentyseventh Ohio, son of Jidge Thrall, of Columbus. was taken prisoner bv a straggling party of the enemy, near Farming ion, during Pope’s reeonnotssanee of that day, while looking for his ambulance.— We have plenty of surgeons to exchange, but Beauregard refuses Pope’s requests to exchange a few,. unless the exchange was to be general. His object evidently is to change off our privates for Buckner and their other Generals. Our troops are cut down to the least possible baggage, and each company is reduced to two tents A c ats
