StrategicaI Policy of the south rn
COnfederacy.

Without stopping to inquire further into the
nature of the extraordinary rumors in circulation
for some time past, in reference to threatened
invasion of the District of Columbia it is at least
safe to suggest as possible truth, that il has
been the yersistent policy of the Confederate
States, since the first alarm of war, to tempt the
North into an enormous scale of expenditure for
military purposes, and thus to produce more
speedy exhaustion. 1t would appear though
no means had been neglected--no artifice unem-
ployei-Ehich might tend to this result. The
announced intention of the Confederacy to grant
letters of marque. for aught that appears to the
contrary, is not likely to be carried into execution
embargoes laid upon commerce at Southern ports
have been raised; and Northern vessels seized
have been released. in many instances. by di
rection of the authorities at Montgomery Never
theless, these varied acts of hostility NAV have
answered Il purpose, by precipitating events
in the North, and Fastening the final issue
Meanwhile, the Southern States seem to be hus-
banding their resources in every possible way. lndi
viduals serve in the ranks as common soldiers
gratutously. Not unfrequentlv, as the newspa-
pers state, whole companies are put on war foot
ing. with no other expense to the General Gov
ernment than the providing of mu.kets; and rail
ways do the necessary transportation without in
demnity.
Reviewing the events of the last two weeks, il
may well be doubted whether there has ever been
any settled purpose to invade the National cap
ital. Jefferson Davis evidently prefers to act on
the defensive, rather than employ aggressive
measures. But even if we accept this a solu
ton of certain rumors and proceedings otherr ss
difficult of explanation. it can not be said thai
the extensive preparations for the defense o
Washington are ill-advised. Without them the
political attitude Of two or three of The border
States might have given much more reason fo
concern; and besides the concentration of larg,
force at some convenient point is absolutely nee

There was a time when Americans were in the
habit of estimating the enormous cost of war.
They did so for two reasons; first to show the
foolish nations that met in mortal combat
to slaughter each other, what an expensive
pastime they indulged in; secondly, to fatter
themselves, whose empire was peace" Now
the case is different In the whole country. there
are not three newspapers that touch the pecuni
ary side Of war matters. Ii il too suggestive.
Materials are in il 20 establish the fact that the
United States, whose greatness was founded on
peace, is about to commence one of the cestlieyi
struggles ever made in the world. Be it the task
of the Daily Nelrs TO enlighien people. then
Let us see what expense wsrs have hitherto la

1897, cost Sl30 ,000, 600.

The war of ten years which is known ''the

The war against the First Napoleon, which
began in 1903 and ended in 1915. cost the extra
