THE WAR NEWS. The. peouy’s budget, which appears in this a paper and which we issued yesterday ca cates, will not give much satisfaction to those of our readers, who ate hungering and thirsting for big battles, and who think, . the Federal Government ‘too slow in-its motions: The news, however, to: those who regard the course of events with a. military rather than a political eye, possesses considerable interest. It sows that Gen. MeClelian is ready to fight Gen. Beauregard whenever the latter gentleman shall see proper'te attack him. Every day of quietude seems to strengthen McClellan while it has a reverse effect upoti his antagonist. Fresh ‘troops are constantly augmenting the Federal forces and every available moment is employed in drilling and disciplining them. If Gen. Beauregard ever seriously contemplated an attack upon Washington City, every day that passes only makes the achieve ment less within, the scope of possibility. It seems that he has promised the North and contigency, i. ¢., a failure to make a demonstration upon the Federal Capital before the first of October, they may return home.— The first of October has come—and gone— . but we do not believe that. Washington , has been exposed to the slightest danger. The probability is—provided Gen. Beauregard isa man of his word—that the North and South Carolinians are, at tbis moment, on their warch from Manaseas homeward. Such aa example of defection will have an exceedingly depressing effect upon those who still remath in the secession army. Gallant Old Kentucky, in spite of her secession Governor, is about to vindicate her loyalty to the Union by opening a bloody ac~ court current with her Tennessee invsders. Theré are also a considerable force of Secessionists,in her own bosom, that await her chastening hand. Gen. Anderson, we opine, Will not permit either domestic treasop or Tennessee invasion to transform his State into such a devastated field of war as has been made of Missouri. Should Tennessee prefer breasting the storm, to gracefully retreating from the soil she has violated, there wile some desperate fighting, for both the belligerent states have enough and to spare of chivalric pride, The next budget of the pony will bring us something worth the hearing trom Kentucky. If the news is to be unreseredly credited, there have lately been several inconsequential affairs of outposts, in which, with one or two exceptions, the Unionists have been the victors. Aa these little successes are too often the creatons of newspaper reporters, it _ie seareely worth while to make much lori. over them.

Nobody need be surprised, should the next pony bring accounts : of some brilliant affairs, similar to that of Hatteras Inlet. and that North Carolina has wheeled into the ranks of the Union, thus placing-the Seeession army in Virginia between two fires.

The whole force were agen to scatter and a large number were kilied. The enemy did not return the fire.” Gen. McClellan, after disposing of the advancing force of Rebels, directed his attention to a new battery, recently thrown up by the enemy a short distance south of Munson’s Hill,"known as Masou’s Hill. He fired several shot and shell in their ranks, causing seme of the hands to knuck off. They were evidently surprised by this sudden opening of our batteries on theirs, as they disappeared and did not return the fire. ae a: Gen. McClellan returned to the city about 9 o’clock in the evening. A deserter from the rebels, camp at Munimmediately conveyed to Gen. McClellan. — He states that Gens. Beauregard and Jobnston were both at Munson’s Hill, yesterday, and made a thorough reeonnoisance of our position. He states there are only about 10.000 soldiers at Munson’s Hilland the main body are ‘at ‘Fairfox and Centreville. He say®* that Jeff. Davis was at these points on Thursday and reviewed the troops in person. He saw Jeff. Davis at Munson’s Hill, yesterday, examining our works with a glass. He does not think, from all he has heard and could learn a8 a private, that there are over one hundred thousand men at all these points.

He says he never heard theintention expressed by the Rebels of making an attack on our forces. . _ WASHINGTON, Sept. 20th. A recent order of Gen.
