The Warfare Of the Enemy.

The war as waged by the enemy in the
distant and remote parts Of the Confederacy

a barbarity and atrooity revolving to human

Ewing (the Yankee general in command
of that Department. towards the secession:
lists of that country, says: "Gen. Ewing's
policy towards these wretches from the very

massacre, has been simple determination
nothing less. His orders have been to take
no prisoners from them, and the orders have

Signs Of Failure.

While the faipt.hearted among us are all
the while finding some cause to despair OF
our success in the present war, it would
perhaps help them some little if they could
see the other side of the picture and know
some of the perils which threaten our enc.
mics. These are neither few nor SMALL.
Among them one of the most formidable is
the apparent probability that they will not
be able to raise soldiers enough. to carry on
the war; even at its present Dimensions
A late Northern paper, one of the most le-
liable in its statements, says that the entire
result of the recent draft in Lincoln's domln-
ions will be to add "som mething over 5O,O0O
men" to his armies, and of these about 4o,-
600 will be substitutes, made up OF the
most worthless characters, whose perfor-
mances, as soldiers, will be chiefly to run
away and desert. When it is remembered
that this paltry number was the result is
surprising as appalling to the Northern
government one would think, as it is full
Of encouragement to US. All the rest of
the drafted men were either rejected by the
surgeons, or bought exemptions at the le-
gal price of three hundred dollars each
In Massachusetts,, one of'the strongest Lin.
coin States, and the bitterest of allin enmi-

and his measures is SO widespreadsand de:

"A correspondent, writing from General

of the camp relative to D. q. Hill and a
band of MUSICIANS. The leader Of the band
made application, through his Colonel, for q
furlough for himself and band. The appii-
cation took the regular chanueL and was ap-
proved all the way up until it-reached Gen.
Hill. The General disapproved it, and re.

the war cannot continue much longer
1t is of course impossible to say what uu.
foreseen combination of circumstances may
occur toreYive the war spirit Of the North
ern people. But certainly the signs now
are that if Lincoln continue the war much
longer it must be without an army.
- Our suggestions are confirmed BY the
special correspondent, from Washington Of
the. New York Times, one ofthe most fero,
cious of the abolition war journals of that
city. He makes the following remarkable
statement: e1t is the opinion Of eminent
military men here, that colored regiments
will form the basis Of our future armies,
and that the government will have to rely
mainly on colored troops to finish up the
rebellion" Could any thing be more hu-
initiating to the great and mighty North, or
more encouraging to our own beloved State !?
This is a confession Of utter and ignomin-,,
ious failure. It acknowledges that the TO-
000, 900 Of people Of whom they boasted 50
much, have broken down In their furious
purpose to o5crush our poor 5000, 900, and
have to isrely mainly" on the poor blacks
whom, by force; or fraud, they can enlist 10,
their service toSdo their fendish work.
This confession too, is as .ridiculous as tits
shameful. The idea that they can accomp.
flish by q handful Of colored soldiers what
their hosts Of white ones have failed to eff
feet, is preposterous. They mag compel q
few thousand blacks to enter their service,
but it will only hasten the period of their
utter and Gnal overthrow. @i:.5 s:s :. Z. 2
On the whole, then, We think we have

every reason to thank God and take courage.
