Look at what England (whoso ncwfpa per writers aro prophesying bankruptcy in the North,) expended Irom 1193 to 1814 It tells its own story. Tho public expen diture or England during tho war which was begun in 193, nnd was continued ("with short intermissions in 1801 and 1814,) until the final overthrow or Nnpo Icon in 1815, were conducted throughout upon a truly gignntic scale. In 1192 the etitiro public expenditures or the kingdom were 19,859,123 (or, in round numbers, ninety millions of dollurs.) In 1814 the current expenditures amoun ted to 116,180,895, and the interest upon the debt to 30,05 1,205, making an ng gregalesum of 10C,832,2G0 or about five hundred nnd thirty millions of dollars paid out of the exchequer for the dis bursements or that one year. The expenditures of England during tbe ten years rrom 1S04 to' 1814, averaged 84,001,1G1, or four huudrcd millions ol dollars per annum. I take round nnm bcrs merely, to avoid the trouble orn close calculation. -Multiply this annual sum by the ten years or expenditure, and yonr readers will find that England expended in that four thousand millions or dollars against Napoleon and tho other powers with whom she was nt war.

Brother Jonathan has always been a peaceful individual until his present domes tic scrimmage. He has stood by with his hands in his pockets and watched the wars of the Old World with a curious but not greatly interested attention. He has seen the Europcnn nntions stick to the same old modes of liirlitmi lor venrs, inventing nom- imt new nnd improving the old but little. The Austrian have relied upon their urn:, the Russians upon their overwhelming num bers, the French upon the bayonet, the EuMish upon their hearts or oak. nnu wood en walls. Invention had improved every thiiiL' but war. Suddenly Brother Jonathan was precipi tated into 0 fight of his own. He hastily caught up the old weapons of offence and defence, but improved everything he touch ed. The world has since been tnkii'g les sons of him in the art of war. Invention has succeeded invention, until no depart ment of the nrmy nnd navy has been left unbenefitted. Camps have been trans formed into cities and tents into houses, furnished completely from tho contents ol nn army trunk. In Hampton Roads the Monitor gave the signal lor a tremendous revolution in the construction of ships-of-war, nnd Europe has taken the hint. At Fort Pulaski the fact was demonstrated thnt ston.i walls were insufficient protec tions against our improved ordnance. Eu rope must learn that lesson olso. And now to complete tho catulogue of discove ries, wc havo invented and nro now pre pnring rnnnon before whose tremendous powers cveu iron walls will bo useless and unserviceable. These cannon will inaugu rate a greater revolution in warfaro than was ever set n before. By nnd by tho world will begin to acknowledge that Brother .loiinilnui knows a thinir or two. and that ho is no raw apprentice nt tlio irnuc 01 war. Ho has certainly discovered more in one vcor than nil the rest of tho world in the fust hTtv, nnd litis only just begun to work in earnest. Let Europe look and learn for a month or two longer, and we will bring out something truly astonishing. Yrif York Herald. Details of Easter JCcur. Retreat of Gen.

The dispatches from the East convey in telligence of the highest importance. While on this distant coast we have boon qnietly, though somewhat impatiently, nwaitingtho restoration of telegraphic communication the loyal States have passed through t pc riou or excitement unparalleled since the great uprising or tho people at the com mencement or the war. Tho occasion of this feverish demonstration was the forced retreat ol Gen. Banks' division from Front Royal, on the Manassas Gap Railroad, to the Potomac, ot Williamsport, Marylund. It appears that it was known early in May that Jackson was to be reinforced by some of the best brigades of the rebel army. Gen. Bunks had then a sufficient force td hold the enemy in check; but on the 15th, Shields' and Geary's commands wtre. bv . . -j omcbody s blundering order, transferred to McDowell's Department Cast of the mountains, leaving Banks with only nbonf 4000 men to defend our conquests in the Shenandoah Vnll"y. On the very same day, Jackson effected a junction with the divisions ol hwcll and hdwnrd Johnson, nnd proposed to cut off the littlo nrmy commanded by Banks. The advance of our force was stationed at Front R-oyal, sO as to hold the terminus or tho Manassas Gap Railroad. It consisted or tho First Maryland Regiment, Kimpps rennsyiva- nia Battery, and some Vermont cavalry. Banks was at Strasnurg. Un t ntlny, -.'.Jit May. the ndvnnced detachment wos sud denly attacked by nn overwhelming force, nnd, after a desperate ligh:, either cut np or captured. The accounts say the rebel conversed their victory into a massacre,- and not more than 150 men escaped or the' 900 on our side. As the enemy advanced Banks was compelled to retreat; and that retreat was one or the most masterly ex ploits or tho war. With less than 4000 nnd a train of five hundred wagons to pro' tect, Banks took immcdinto command of thp rear gunrJ, and although pursued uy an enemy nt least lo.uuti strong, nnu re peatedly'assailed in front, flank, and rear, succeeded in renching the Totomac, with but small loss in men nnd the sacrifice of only fifty out of the five hundred wagons. Sigel, lumselr, so renowned lor sKiiiul re treats, could not have performed this diffi cult movement with more celerity, order, and success. The announcement 01 these events created intense excitement through out the loyal States. The militia wero called out, and nil available troops were set in motion toward the Potomac. This time Maryland shared in the patriotic en thusiasm." The slaughter of the First Ma ryland Regiment, and the report of rebel atrocities toward the sick and wounded, excited the Bnltimoreans to snch a pitch that mobs immediately began to hunt down secessionists. Jeff Davis's fricnJs fared rather hard. Recruiting offices were opened nt once. .Maryland is again inoroiigniy loyal. Under the influence of tho excite ment, the lower branch of Congress passed a stringent Confiscation Bill. The public mind, however, soon recovered its tone. On tho 21th Mny, Batiks was at WiP liumsport. On tho 30th, nt the head 01 18,000 men, he was across the Potomac, chasing the rebel army down the Shcnnn doah, and capturing stragglers. That day our advance reached Front Royal. Mcan time, a portion of McDowell s corps lias been detached with a view to co-operato against Jackson's nrmy, and attempt its capture. Thus, within n few day, the po sition of n (fairs has bceu entirely reversed our favor; nnd the grand results of Jackson's bold movement nro a vast addi tion to the strength or tho I mon forces, the destruction or secession in Maryland, and the intensifying of tho war spirit throughout the North. In bnel, that will prove to havo been the most expensive movement the rebels could have made. . m II 1.
