., u :. walk and il disclo,es with less venom

az il ia weak, aud it discloses with less venom
than Judge fngraham's the hostility to the
Government and the sympathy with Rebellion
from which this case originated and which The
decision is meant to promote.
But it was meant and has suiiced, to pro-
mote other objects than this. Although the
case was Lurredly made up, and its argument
FASTENED, the decision of it has been unaccount-
ably delayed. 1t would be more exact TO say
that the public announcement OF the decision
has been delayed, for, from the beginning
there has been no doubt in the minds OF those
who arranged this performance what issue
would BIO reached. More than two mouths ago
we were assured and felt bound to say that
this decision had been privately resolved on by
the Judges, and that its purport had been
communicated in some way to certain specnia-
tors in Wall street, who so far relied upon the
information that they were operating largely IN
mortgages and other securities which were
likely to be affected By such ajudgment. 1t IL
difficult to conceive what charge could DO
more damaging to an honest judiciary, or what
charge an honest judge, if there were one I'M
plcated, would make creates haste to repel.
Yet the statement at that time evoked no word
of contradiction, though il id elicit general
and indignant comment from the public, and
put innocent holders Of securities upon their
guard. The intervening months have passed
away, and that disclosure being supposed to
have been forgotten the decision Is finally an
nounced from the bench. VIII any one Ho'c
explain through what channel it was previously
revealed
The public will give no more weight TO
this business in It's present condition than II
deserves. The case will 60 from the Supreme
Court of this District TO the Court Of Appeals,

Lee purposes the renewal of bis attempt of
last year to capture Washington by the Ma

His advance in the Cumberland val

plies; and he is believed to have
no purpose Of penetrating to Harris

from the army besieging Nicksburs furnishes
as with most cheering advices.
Our army is sufficient to take the place
Gen. Grants position as against Gen.
Johnston is as strong as chat Of Gen
Pemberton against Gen. Grant The indica-
tons multiply that the rebel army in
Nicksburg must shortly surrender The
fire upon the city Is very heavy and destruc-
tive. The rebel reply to our fire Is not
heavy and Is Intellectual. Gen. Johnston Is
believed to be mainly employed in prepara-
tons 70 defend the interior of Mississippi az
ter the fall Of Vicksburg.
The rebel spirit Of resistance in the South
west Is burning Itself out in harassing but
inc5nclusive warfare along the river
