LETT In nOIND 1T CUT!

Since this glorious year opened, the Union
armies have cleared the Mississippi OF Rebels,
taking q. 900 prisoners at Vicksburg and 5000
at Port Hudson. They have captured more
ihan three hundred cannon from the Rebels, and
not lost TO them half that number. They have
beaten them in the East on the desperate field
of Gettysburg in the West in half dozen Sc
rious fights, including the laIc Brilliant triumph
on Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge,
driving Bragg's army like sheep, and capturing
more than fifty Of its guns. We have rocov-
cred nearly all'of Tennessee two-thirds Of Ar
kansas, a large part of Mississippi and Louis
lana, and the southwestern quarter of Texas
Last Ncw-Ycar's, we were mourning our late
bloody rcpulsc at Fredericksburg; now we are
on every side triumphant and advancing.
And the political progress has kept even step
With the military. Last year, we wcro smart
ing under our recent and signal defeats in Neir-
York, Peunsvlrania (where We lost US. SEN
stor for six years), our lost Congressman i'll Def-
a,oare, OLio GA out Of 10 Congressman against
lus). Indiana, Illinois, and about drawn battle
in Wisconsin. We could not elect L. $. Scna-
tors in Missouri, and it looked as il the Copper
heads would get them. Now, We have carried
every one Of the above States by handsome ma
iorities beside Maine, Massachusetts,, Ne'c-HamP-
shire, Rhode Island Connecticut, Tsrmonf, M'ohi-
gan. Io,ra, Uea Jirgira, Maryland, have a
Union Congressman from Delan0re in place OF
him chosen against Us last year (sinco de-
ceased); and we have had signal Union tn
umph in Kentucky. Every single State but
New jersey tlst even protends TO DO loyal to
the Union now rallies around tho Adinins,re-
ton. And the majorities whereby we have
carried most of them are msgnihoert-oyor-
wheming.
