The TELEaRAPH IN MILITARY AND DOMESTIC
AFFAIRs.-The telegraph has been very i'm
portant agency in this war By 1t Lieutenant
General Grant is able to control half dozen
different armies, hundreds of miles apart, and
Sherman, Thomas, Butler, Smith, Mcpherson,
Schofeld and our other generals all work to-
gether systematically for definite objects, with
as much ease as though General Grant was
present at the headquarters of all these corps
at the same time.
But the telegraph is now becoming more and
more useful in domestic affairs The city de-
partment Of the American Company enables
business men to communicate with each other
and with their families in less time than it
takes to stop an omnibus. A man down town
can telegraph to his wife that he will bring
half dozen friends home to dinner, and she
can send reply and the bill of fare in five
minutes time. 1t is evident, therefore, that the
city telegraph will soon become excessively
popular, and supersede the penny post. The
business perplexties and matrimonial quarrels
it will prevent render it a great blessing.
There ought to be an Office on every street.
The Americans arc telegraphic people.
They rushed long way ahead Of the railroad
some time ago, and now nothing but lightning
speed can satisfy them. New telegraph COM
panies are constantly organizing all over the
land. The idea Of city telegraphs will soon be
generally adopted and developed. Already
we are constructing an overland telegraph to
Russia. The Atlantic telegraph is now mere
matter of time, and will be finished, we hope,
in less than two years. By May, 1866, we ex-
poet to print telcgraphic HERALD, giving the
news from every part Of the world up to the
hour Of going to press.

Our LOSSES An THE ENEMY's LOSSES. Est
mates of killed ana wounded are too often
merely loose and dissgSeesble congratulations
In all the excitement Of a battle field, with
hospitals at widely separated points, it is
hardly possible for correspondents to know
positively the loss of an army within day or
two after an action, and so they form an esti-
mate for the army generalized from what they
know of the loss in single brigade or divi-
sion, and they estimate in round numbers--in
thousands and sometimes in groups Of thou
sands. If the loss in single brigade falls a
little short or runs little over nine hundred,
they make it a thousand; if a total loss in a
series Of fights may run little over twelve
thousand, the correspondent believes that there
are two or three hospitals he has not heard
from, and he makes it fifteen thousand to be
SAFE For these reasons early reports Of very
heavy losses are not to be relied upon, and es
pecially Is 1t unwise to draw respondent con-
clusiens from them. Official reports Of killed
and wounded always show the number lost in
or than the public believed it to be. This is
the experience OF all our battles.
1t would therefore be bad and urjustifable
thing for the public to reason from one or two
ill advised dispatches that General Grant is
likely to fail in his present campaign through
the magnitude of his losses. Aside from the
fact that we cannot know how great his losses
are, such reasoning is absurd, since the reduc-
ton Of force by losses In battle is at least
equal on both sides. and the relative strength
Of the armies Is the same. If we are able to
fight the enemy when both armies number one
hundred thousand, we are equally able to
fight him when both armies are down to seven
ty thousand each. Our losses have been heavy
in general officers; but so have those of the
enemy. We have lost General Sedgwick-a
man of great personal influence, q moral power
in our army-and the enemy have lost for the
present General Longstreet-a man second
only to General Lee in the estimation of the
killed also on our side, and Generals Jen-
kns, Pickett, Jones and Stafford were killed
on the other side. Jenkins and Pickett
were justly numbered among the best fighting
generals Of the Southern army. Jenkins,
South Carolina man, had in particular the high
confidence of all who knew him, and especially
Of his men. Altogether, the enemy has lost in
killed and wounded, as far as known, six
generals, and we have lost seven; and We be-
lieve that the disparity in other losses will not
be greater than this; and, moreover, we believe
