take place as if the amended act had not

BY Mr.. Trumbull That the fact that any

1864.
The new year is to be even,ful. Were
this country in perfect peace, the year 1864
would still be one Of great interest, because
the Presidential election occurs. The couu-
try is no, at peace and although the rebel
lion is evidently waning, it is not yet pru-
dent TO count upon she electioa Of Peace
President, or to think Of permitting the
election to 90 by default There is much at
stake in the next Presidential election, ques-
tious OF infinite Importance are involved 10 it,
and every citizen should keep himself well
posted in regard to them. As to the war:
while in the northern rebel states little fight
ing is to be expected during the winter months,
the southern will give fields for brisk work
In South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Missis-
sippi, Alabama and Texas. the winter gives
the best season for active military oper tions,
and we expect important results. In Europe,
Peace seems to be yielding to War. Russia.
England and France are BY no means at ease,
and the lesser European Kingdoms arc in
volved with them. On the whole, 1864
promises no rest 80 the printers, and we ox-
pect to earn all that our patrons will pay us,

The Chattanooga correspondent Of the New
York Times says; "It is said that General
Grant has forwarded to Washington hSyiows
on the way the war should be conducted in
future to insure the earliest and most com
pleie suppression Of the rebellion. What
these views are in detail is not of course
known, but IL may be assumed for certainty
that the concerted n'ovement of all our arm les
under one policy, and so far as practicable, u,-
der one direction, is the principal feature of
Gen. Grants plsin."
