tied here, although a more hopeful feel
ing prevails. II is now certain that
there is to be no intermlssion OF our mil
itary movements, that the atadyance
has commenced in earnest, and will not
be discontinued till the rebellion or the
Government is broken.
The attacks in and cut OF Congress
here on General Mcclellan and the Ad-
minis,ra,ion are not because Of the inac-
tivi,y Of our army. The whole power
of the Government is now being put
forth. 1t is the shaping the policy OF
the Administration in view Of victory
that is the present bone Of contention.
1t is the question as to whether, after
the South is subdued, they shall have
the Institutions guaranteed them by the
Constitution and established in their
midst for generations, or institutions
forced upon them by the Northern
States. Asto which side will win in
this contest there can be no reasonable
doubt. The war commenced for the
Constitution will be victorious in the
name of ond under the Constitution.
