I TUUMAJfAOEMtHTOFLAKOB ARMIES. . The New York StaaU Zeituuy, which oat | is now lojalydeTotingits unqnesiionnble ma ability to the lervice of the Union, coro.W : pares in a recent number, the size of our army on the Potonfhc with the largest 0 ' armies heretofore aggregated in Europe. — the article coulaias so many striking facts that wc here translated It for our gp f readers. As to the speculations of the B ' StaaU Zttimuj we have only to say that re- we hare every confidence in the capacity of General McClellan *'to bundle" Bis thousands of men. But to jho arli- ~ I de .- ^ "It is not generally known, that there 1 is now concentrated on the shores of the , Potomac a larger body of troops, than ' has ever been congregated in modern j limes, eScept in the battle of Leipslc. j r Neither Gqstavus Adolphus, nor Fred- ! crick the G^H. nor Washington, Well- ; ' ington,.nor Scptt, had ever tinder his immediate command anything like the ' o.J ntunlier, which is now under the command of Gen. McClellan. Frederick , the Great never led. into the -field more "4 i thun 80,000 men nt a time, hut nH his ' great battles were fought und won with , is ' bodies of troops ranging between .30,- I | 000 and CO.OWIf, Napoleon, at Anstcr- | j lirz, vanquished with 80,000 ineu.-^the ! united \lussieu and Austrian urmics, ' counting about 100,090. At Jena and | ' Auerstadt, there were 130,000 men under the commout] of the Emperor of the French. The bloody bottle of Wagrntn was fought Aith 150,000 men agaiust | the Austraitis, and in the equally cclc- , brated battle at Boridjno about 120,000' ■ Frenchmen were opposed to the Itus- , tsians. The decisive battle At Waterloo! ! wns fought with only 80,000 Frencltinen against Bluchcr and Wellington. But the liatt'e of Lcipsic set in motion I' a gigantic ar;ny or altoul 500,000 men, Napoleon having under his command : ■ about 20 0.000, and the united forces ol ; Russia, Austria and Prussia, about J 190,000. It will apppur from this com- { pari son that the armies which are con- j fronting each other on the Potomac, | were exceeded in n imber only by those ; v vast armies, which, on the plains' of ' Leiptic, decided the fate of Europe. - 1 "On the continent of America no battle has ever been fought before that ; nt Ball Run, in which as many as 60,000 u men were arrayed against each other. Washington nover had more than 30,l ; 030 men at a time under his command ; .j Jackson never more than 15,000 .men, 1 and Scott never more than 20, 000; Tho issue of the great battle between the forces of McOlellnn and Beauregard . has therefore a greater importance than' 1ms .attached to any-previous battle , ( on the soil of America. *'\i requires, doubtless, a military tol- . cut of the very liigliest order, to fct in motion an army of 150,000 or more of , ! men, to. watch and OirrcW with nnremit- | ^ ting presence of .mind the movements of j every division, to throw reinforcements, , 1 at the right moment, apon every threatened point, to espy every weak point «f . the enemy anil to reach it without de- 1 j lay, and to obtain the minutest acquaiu- •' i tancc with all the details of the territo- i j ry, over which the movements of so j large an array extend. Bishop Lynch, ! ; ol Charleston, in hi* correspondence i < ' with Archbishop Hughes^ ascribes to j f the first Napoleon the opinion, that none j t | of his Marshals were able to lead "vat [f •battle a corps of -50,000. Whether this t be trae or not, the history of tho battle t at Bull Run undoubtedly proves, that t the chief, genarals of the two opposing 1 artuies were unequal to tho jimmi task devolved upon them. Beauregard had i aa entire army stationed only a few t ' miles from the baitlc-firld, of which no f use was mad*, neither daring nor after 1 ' the battle, and the seasonable arrive^ of ( a part of tho tro&ps of -Johnson was n needed, to save him from a signal dafeat. < t General McDowell had a strong reserve, j o | Wl.Lh if employed at the right time i v ( would have becu able "to repulse the 1 1 -

; troops o( Jobusen, and thus to bring on b a different decision of that fatal day — le It is generally agreed, that neither of i- , the two generals on that occasion provir ed his ability to direct an army of 30,it 000 according to the rules of strategy. "The country" now -looks confidingly g to a young general of .only. thirty-two ir years for exploits, which, if lie succeeds, c will at ouee place his name by the side t of the most isnowned mililnry cGiufi tains of modern times. The above " statements will leave no donbt, that the i- 1 work which he bus been called upon to ; perform is much greater and much more e difficult, than appear* at ilic.first glance; e May a' kind Providence give him n strength for the proper discharge of his is duties, and lead him to a glorious and i. j decisive victory "—'lie Mrthoditt. The first telegraphic message from the ^ ; Pacific to the Atlantic, was sent by , Chie! Justice Field of California to tile : President, as follows : . j "Sacramento, Oct. 24 — 7:40 pro. p "To Adiuimm Lincoln, , President of the United States, , ! "In the temporary absence of the . | Governor of the State, LjMW-Teqncstrd . | to send- yon the 3pa<fincssiigc. whieh 5 will be transmittal^ vcr the wires of lite , telegraph htie/(vliicb connects the PaI j ciftc with \)jt. Atlantic- States. . i "The jffoplo of Caliloruia desire to , eongrntnlate ydli upon the completion , of the gr?»t work. They .believe that L it will be fhe means of strengthening' , i the attachment which bind* both tlic ,J East and tho West to tho Union, umi . | they desire in this, the first message , j across the continent, to express their • loyalty to that Union, ami their -deter- | initiation to stand by the Government Lin this, its day of trial They regard . | thnt Government with-affeetion, and will j adhere to it under all fortunes. Stephen J. Fikid. "Chief Justice of California " ge5. scorr declining. j The New York Timet regtets to hear j from Washington that the health of j Gen. Scott -in becoming less and lets j adequate to the severe and unremitting ; labois imposed by his position. His ; fatigncd has had shell an effect upon his system that he now finds it difficult to attend tq buMticss for more than t wo hours at a time,' without refreshing himself by sleep. II* is unable to walk or ride to any considerable distance, and for a portion of the past few days lie has been confined qnito closely to his house. It is evident that the term of the old aoldicT.'s-oetive service is drawing rapidly to a close. He will leave a ord on tho page of his country's history as honorable as that of Washlvuton himself. • Tho correspondent of the London Titmt mentioned, a few. weeks since, thnt it was the General's intention • to avail himself of the provisions of tho ' last act of Congress, and ru'iro from h'crviae during the present month. Tho commander of Gen. Fremont's who led the brilliant and successful attack on Springfield on Saturday week, is Major Szagonyi (not Seagoyne), a uallant soldier who served honorably in tho Hungarian war of inI dependence, and i* now again fighting ! for constitutiowal llbertj. Ho is one of' thuso whom the Government have re- | fused to pny beeatfsc ho - was appointed , Framcnt withoot the requbit* offieiul red tape, but he seems to figlx as < well mi though his pay was jingling in-' i bis pocket. It should be -understood that this Body Guard is no mere corps of osten- 1 taiion, but is composed of men who list hard work and mean to fight. also serves as a school of officers. renders will recolleet^tbat sometime i Gen. Fremont advisqd young men ' who nsplrcd to commissions to servo an j apprenticeship in this corps. Szagonyi j j would seem to ba a yncUy good misiiu.-. • . ( tur. n .

' The following *t miotic* will show how much faster England rolled tip her *i< b*. ih ut we have been doing : between the years 184W nnd 181C t lie tlvcnige dally expenditures of the British government ucrc $1,300,000. This co*iiiut:ed«thirtecn years. The population of the country wns llfctt only 18, 090,890 ; thnt • of our own loynl Stntcs is now over 20,000,000. Again, for one hundred daysbefore the battle of Waterloo, the IJnglislt spent $5,000,000 per day. If Eriglund could stand this enormous expenditure for so long a period, cannot we , bear tho expenses of oar war for thebaic Htne necessary to crush, out this wicked rebellion nnd restore tire eonniry to- its former greatness ? v Genernl Batter made a speech at Burlington, 'Vermont, in which lie said thnt it any foreign nation dared to inter- ' lere in our intestine war, we would ecsiie lo denl.with Southern traitors ks erring delicately nnd tenderly, am/ shouW arm every loyal Union mnn, Aorlh nnd Sontli, both black and w hiicr bond nnd-freo, until treason and itsaliettors arc exterminated, nnd lire meddlesome world was taught a salutary . ftsson.
