War matters.

A dead calm prevails in all quarters, and we have nothing new to report touching the situation of public affairs. Some few rumors have been in circulation for two days past, of the landing of the enemy at certain prominent points, but nothing has been officially confirmed, and we place no faith in these vague sensation stories. The Southern armies are waiting, with as much patience as circumstances will allow, the threatened ‘"crushing"’ advance of the Lincoln columns. Confident in their own strength, and in the justice of their cause, our troops will give a good account of themselves when the day arrives.
