Several letters, commendatory and critical,
that have reached US from New-Jersey since
our recent structures on the political strategy
there current, indicate decided misapprehen-
sion on a vital point OF the drift Of our re-
marks. The writers evidently understand us
to advise the nomination aud support OF none
other than candidates OF the most decided Re-
publican sentiments and ON the most pro-
uoupced Republican platform. Whether that
be good or bad policy, it is not what We IN
tended nor did we mean to allade at all to
the selection of candidates. We hold tia. an
entirely subordinate matter.
The mistake made in New-Jessey has not
been that of nominating candidates too much
or too little Republican, but that Of not sys-
trmatically aud earnestly diflasing and conn
mendng Republican principles. Ii Jour jour
mails, your leaders, your speakers, your daily
wuk aud conversation, are timld, trimming,
apologize, you must have candidates to match,
or submit TO be badly beaten. The stream
can rise DO higher than It's source. Bat make
it your business always and everywhere IL
show the people why they ought TO be Repub-
leans, and ought not to BE- anything else, aud
then you may select candidates who faithfully
reflect the public sentiment you Will have ere
ated. Otherwise, you must select your nomi-
nees not too far in advance of the actual state
Of public opinion, or expect 10 see them dis.
tanced.

POLITICAL PARTIES IN RUSSIA.

All the books and pamphlets on Russia,
which are now being published in so large q
number in London, Paris and Leipslc agree
in assuring US that the vast empire begins
more and more to be pervadcd by Il profound
political agitation. Many events of recent oc.
currenco, Us the new revolutionary outbreaks
in Poland, the abolition Of seridom. the liberal
quent closing Of the universities the increase
Of candestine political papers, the rumors Of
the approaching concession Of constitution,
have confirmed these accounts and turned the
eyes Of the civilized world to Russia. A pam
phlet, recently published in Paris under the
title, AieIandrt II itrdnt FEarope, by a Russian
who calls himself liberal monarchist, under
takes to acquaint us with the present condition
and the aims of the political parties in Russia
subject generally so unknown, and yet, in
view of the growing power OF Russia, ~ im-
portant. that our readers, We think. will feel
interested in obtaining some information on 1t.
The open expression Of political sentiments,
tue author says, was not possible in Russia
until the accession of Alexander III. Until
then, Russia was represented BY single indi-
yidual, who allowed no one to have a differing
opinion, and who was only surrounded BY
political puppets. The freedom of political
discussion at once engendered q party spirit
Of the biterest kind often based on mere mis-
understandings. and in many cases fed by the
inadaptatiOn Of the Russian language to the
political terms Of the countries oi Western
Europe. Tho party names were mostly taken
from the French; but their Specification has
become greatly different, in accordance with
the widely different political condition of the
two countries. The "Red" party consists by
no means of Republicans but includes men
like the Minister OF Justice, Pann, who, as
President Of the Committee Oh Emancipation,
executed, much against his own wish, the de-
creea of the Emperor. Tho Grand Duke Con.

RICHMOND.

When we printed letters from the battlefield
before Richmond, estimating the loss Of our
troops in those fights at Two or Three Thou
sand, we we're assailed therefor by some of our
contemporaries as seeking to exaggcrate our
loss. which was believed to be much smaller.
Gen. McClellan's official dispatch, frankly ayow-
ing that our loss was heavy" fully corrobc-
rated our correspondents estimate.
We now learn that our total loss in these
battles is estimated by intelligent observers at
Six to Eight thousand, OF whom very few are
prisoners, unless severely wounded. Up to
Tuesday morning, if We are not misniOrmed,
our Surgeon General had returns Of 1900 killed
and :. 800 wounded on our side, and there were
more reports to come in.
We did not recover on Sunday the guns lost
by Cassys division on Saturday. They were
carried oil By the enemy. But We learn that
the tents and other property lett by that dl'i-
sion have been recovered.
But whether our losses might or might
not have been less, there is longer u doubt
that the prestige of victory is with US. The
Rebels made very strong and well-planned sor.
tie. They surprised one of our weakest and least
disciplined diyisions aud handled it very Sc
yercy-in fact, for the time smashed it, IA
Gen. McClellan's dispatch intlmates. But
other divisions interposed and checked the
Rebel pursuit in mid career. pushed back the
heads of the insurgent columns, and regaued
part, not all, Of the ground we had lost So
the combatants rested on Saturday night; and
next morning tho Rebel advance was crowded
back still more decidedly aud disastrously. 1t
is probable that the entire Rebel loss in men
was quite equal to our own, though We also
took few prisoners.
Bat the main point settled by Sundays clash
and Mondays quiet is that the Rebel rank and
file al Richmond haze had all the fighting they
ront. Saturday satisfied their aspirations in
that regard. Their leaders told them they bad
won glorious victory, and had the trophies
to show for il. They were assured that one
more effort would secure the triumph of
=" Southern rights" They could MT SEQ it.
They could hardly be brought up to tho scratch,
and could not at all 10 kept up. The fact
that they fought weakly on Sunday and not at
all on Monday is decisive. Unless some rare
opening is made for them through blunder
on our side, we consider this war substantially
over.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1862-06-06

The general panic which seems to have
seized the Rebel army in the Southwest Will
extend, if It has not already extended, doubt
less, throughout that region, and make Mem
phis and other important points easy Of con-
quest. But the report by telegraph from Gen.
Hallecks headquarters that Memphis and Fort
Pillow were surrendered on Friday 10 undoubt-
eddy incorrect A special dispatch from our
correspondent at Cairo informs us, on author
ity of The Memphis Argus of Monday that
mass meetings were held in that city on Sun
day and Monday, at which resolutions were
adopted never to surrender the city voluntar-
lily. They will probably surrender Involuntary
as soon as the Mississippi fotilla is ready to
