THE CAMPAIGN IN VIRGINIA.

stead of Lees army alone, he is forced TO CON
tend against all the forces in Virginia, which
are massed 10 resist his direct approach on
Richmond, while Generals Hunter, Avecill
and Crook forces are SO located that they
cannot reinforce him. The misfortune was in

enemy, and the imposibility OF the Army OF

Shenandoah valley or from Western Virginia.

not to be disguised that the situation is now
painfully interesting. The movements General
Grant is making are full Of peril. He IS an

the gunboats were surprised near mud Bayou,

GEN. sHERIDAN's VICTORIES.

The presence Of capable officer and OF sn uu-
divided and adequate command in the Valley of
the Shenandoah is fast demonstrating the nca-
pacity which, for three years and half, has made
that valley the valley of our national humiliati
And, as we have not been wanting in our censures
upon the chronic mismanagement of which this
region has been the melancholy theatre during the
war, we take pleasure in now awarding just com
mendation to military authorities for the wis
dom which they have learned by experience in the
disasters and blunders which have previously
marked their administration in this quarter The
choice of Gen. SHERIDAN to hold command in the
Valley seems to have been most judicious, and now
that, for the first time in the war, decisive vic
tory has perched on our banners in that quarter,
the whole country can see in clear light the mis-
management which has 50 long forfeited the sue. .
cess that was within our reach. Whether. a. far
as the Administration is concerned the success of
one campaign, as yet unended, deserves to out
weigh the failures of all other campaigns in this
quarter during the last three years, we shall not
undertake to decide, but there can be no doubt ia
any mind that Gen. Sheridan, and the gallant off
GERS and men of his command, in deserving we'll of
the Administration, have deserved more than we'll

COL. WOLFORD'S CASE.

We print in another part Of this day paper the
correspondence that has arisen between the Presi-
dent Of the United States and COL WoLFoRD, of
Kentucky, growing out of the arrest of the latter
by the former for certain words alleged to have
been spoken 10 political debate, and for certain
views which the Colonel is understood to hold in
conflict with those of the Government as regards
the expediency of employing negro troops in the
suppression of the rebellion. We give this corre-
spondence as belonging to the history of the ano-
malous times through which this country is passing
We do not propose at present to undertake any
thing like a review of the case We submit it to
tho judgment Of the impartial reader merely re-
marking that if there be any thing in the tone Of
Col Wolfords letter from which the friends or even
exception, it will also be conceded that as sol
dier of undoubted loyalty he has been subjected to
indignities which naturally tend to induce exsspe
ration of mind and vehemence of speech In all
that is alleged to have been uttered by Col. VOL
ford we do not perceive that he has transcended
the freedom of invective allowed to themselves by
Mr.. Senator WADE and Mr. Representative DAVIS
in recently animadverting on what they deem the
usurpations' and assumptions" of Mr. LIN
COLIN. And in his "views" respecting the expe-
diency of employing negro troops in the ranks of
the army, we do not understand that he differs at
all from the position publicly announced few
days ago by Gen. Sherman. Yet we have not
hoard that Gen. Sherman has been put under ar.
rest for presuming to differ from both Congress
and the Executive in matter respecting which he
has the opportunity and the intelligence to enable
him to form opinions of his own, as, when formed,
he has independence enough to avow them. But
Col. Wolford should remember that sound opinions
do not depend for their strength on the rhetorical
intensity Of their statement as the President of the
United States should remember that the vexatious
and partial use Of his physical power to repres,
free discussion does not conduce to the moral
strength Of bis position before the country
