I have noticed aanotgst tte vuriou3 eonefpendente cf be presp, a cons;der.it)!e amouDt of perplexity in ac couatiDgfor the fiilure oi Gen. Johnston to give battle at Cass Station after hia famous battle order of the 13 h of May. I have seen a-nt ngst ot;u r accounts, that ot tbe army correspondent of the Angusta Constitutionalist positively t ssertirg that Geiwwl. Johnston h d re ceived imperative ordeis from the War Di par.ment at Richmond, forbiddirg liim to risk any general engage ment until rein for C'lLeiits might be sent to him from the army of Virginia, 'i he explanationia incorrect. The true reason lor the retreat of the army from Cass Station after Johnston's battle order had been read to the trocps, waa a iadare npon the cart of bis corps commanders to comply with Johribton's plan of battle. General Johnston having determiotd ripen his iiner'f battle, notified his troops that he was now ready and abent to lead them to victory. Every heart pul sated with patriotic lervor ia response to the cdl of the tried and trussed chieftain. Joe Johnston had de liberately chosen his time aud bis position the word bad been given, aad the deed must be done. Accord ingly Gee Johnston ordered hts corps corjim2ndersto advance their commaid3 and occupy certain designated positions. All was progressing admirably for tho hap py cocsummatica of thts splendid conception whea a staff t fScer, charging up to cine of Johnston's distin guished Lieutenant-Generals, made the startling o7 ncuncement that the enemy wero on his flank in large aud threatening number?. P.'aiog implicit confi dence in the announcement of a staff officer, the Lieutenant General, fearing to rnoc, failed to ccmply with the orders of his ccm maadicg Giueral. In the meanwhir, the advancing column of the enemy gained the position and JocuetOH'c plan was thus frustrated. Thera was no alternative now left him bat to fight the enemy at a disadvantage, cr to retreat to a safe position. To have ruubed madly iuto tbe former, General Johnston h a man of tco ujucd deliberation CLd ;ven tempi red vv3dom to have Hatei to do the latter, all the auathemas of an ignorant pub lic could cot preval. Cor. Sav. Rf.pvblic-.in. From the Army and Nuvy Journal. American and iuropc-in f'gtitlng. TLo enduring courare and ite tcnasity fxhibited in all tbe great battled of xuk war, oy both armies, are equal tc any exhibition cf the cams qualities recorded in history ia some respects are rnperior. Scarcely any cornier. haB been decided by a single triil. At Corinth, at Murfreea boro', at Chattanooga, at Vicksburg, c; Knexvilie, in th South tnd pcst, n: :be eeven daye' Cgbtirg on the Penin sula, iu tho series of batl3H cunrg tieeeial Pope's csra paiiru, in tbe confilcta colo:?uating iu tha victory of Au tie'am, at Fredericksburg , in the raemoralde three daja at Gettysburg, the armies cf both combatants have shown the moral power which is inherent in the American char acter. Ic is a great mistake, however, to assert, a3 ia so fre quently done in the gcccral newspapers, thst Eoropean history decs not present icstaneta ot con'innous fighting, and of battles continuing for several daya. Without re ferring to eiege operations, many cases can be mantioaed cf campaigns, including numerous cor dicta, and of rreat battis that were decided only alter eeveral days ol flht icg. Indeed, it has been fought without varioua prelimi nary affairs ; though as these are not specified in history, and attention is permanently given to the chief and deci sive engagement, wo fall into the concluaion that only this occurred. We donbt, however, if, in the whole history of warfare since firearms came into general use, ny par allel can bo inrniehed to the seven days' fighting ou tbe Peninsula, and the recent engagements in Virginia. Such battles in Europe would have involved the destruction of one or the other army with ali its material. In this coun try, however, from its physical peculiarities above alluded to, the losses are proportionally small, and the result some what indecisive. We naturally seek fcr comparisons te'eur own bait.ea in those of the-Crimean and Italian wars. Euc tho former was mostly comprised in the siege operations, and in the latter the French were so immeasurardy superior to the Austrians that the drama ciostd wuh iho two great acts of Magenta and Solterino, without reach by play or accesso ry incidents. It ia to the wars following the French revo lution, therelorc, tLat we must turn for parallel incidents. It wiil be intetestiLg to :ecaJl ihem, tn the ILst place, as matters of history, and in the second place, to show now o.ucn similarl y li.ere is, notwithstanding the charges in tactic and weapons, in ihe methods by which g ta . hos tile at mie s coma into encounter. For it is well koowe that the principles en whicn battles are fought do not vary, ahLOUKh tnere are such innumerable combination ot do tail, airaugy is t .e faarno now as in the eailj agea ot history. Iho difier- nces io arms make d.flieuces in the ruodsa of arrayng troops at-d ot tij-uting ; but BUoh move mtnt4, for inbtai.ee, as fliuk attacks una attemta to freak a liue in its centre, have am ays been umoug the granu rrinLoeavrta ui cemoiaddert', Iu liJ, undsr the Arcnduke, Chirles attacked the French ou the 1st of iia ch, aad iue battle was i:outn,ed ou -i.t; id, the Freacb being doieaud ; tho austrians fought theiu 4gaiu ou tue 4. t, and again ueieated :ht:m.
