OUR VIcToRY.-For all the details OF
news from the great battle field of the
West, see our telegraphic dispatches.
They may BE-, and no doubt are, erroneou.
IN detail, but We believe they are substan
'iaily true. Rosecrantz has suffered the
most terrible defeat which has occurred
20 the federals since the beginning of the
war. The rout at the first battle Of Man
assaS was apparently as disastrous, but by
40 means 50 In reality. Then their re.
cuperatve energies seemed inexhaustible
aud they lost no position which was not
easily regained. This disaster comes upon
hem, nearly as the loss of the gambler
last desperate stake. 1t defeats their last
reasonable hope, which was to separate the
Gulf from the Atlantic States. 1t upse,s
all their plans, and they are near the end
Of their resources. They can raise nc
more vast armies. As those they have
waste away like snow from the mountains
they cannot replenish. They feel con.
scious of approaching weakness. Gould
they have won this battle, they might
have rallied and prolonged the war TO-
years. 1t would have cost US many a
dreary day ard many sad detection
which 20 a sensitive mind, loving all
Southern people and plying their weak
ness, is the mournfulest thing of all. Fcl
The sour grapes which the fathers do eat
10 set the children s teeth on edge to th.
tenth generation.
But they have lost the desperate stake
The whole United States reels with the
shock. They do not attempt to hide thei
disaster. 1t is open, patent, terrible, par
alyzipg. From all quarters of their lane
comes the hustle of coLfusion-the hurry
ing to and fro of troops-the signs of con
sterpation. They rush with earnest hast,
to KosecraDtz-if by chauce they MAJ
save him yet-catch up his falling for
tunes, and get some foothold once again
Men of the South now is your time! /
you have any manhood left, now is you

but We see the clouds rising over their pros
poets. We see it in the riots Of New York
We see it in the Western disturbances. We
see it in the secret organizations in their midst
We see it in their extraordinary military ls tn

our own department. We see it in the tone o.
England and France. We read their despais
in the siege of Charleston. We see it in tn q
apparently confident, but really despondent

If they do prosecute war against us, it will
be with declining strength, and with less and
less results, until the crisis of their affairs in
the next election. Their 70 vernment car
scarcely survive that.

the hope Of being allowed to retain a

athliatlng with Southern people and ex

possible. Beware of the temptation
Many amiable men have fallen into it
who now mourn their error. but are
borne along by Al irresistible fate deeper

A man may do thing in FIVE minutes

Patriotism Is like the chastity O: wo.

never to rise again.
The Federals know that now. They
are shrewd and have found it out They
are hot wide reasoners, but they learl,
rom experience, aud theirs is the phi
losopty and practice of Machavel.--
They know full well that vbateve,
