On THE topic, the New York Time,
- s-,,eaks thus wisely;
1t is highly desirable, both for our own
comfort and for the sake of the country
and the cause, that We should all try and
acquire a cslmer and more critical temper
in talking and thinking Of the war, and
that we should, as far as possible, prevent
our desires from clouding our judgment.
1t may be as well to say, therefore, that it
is in the highest degr improbable that
Richmond will be in our hands either BIZ
the Fourth Of July or the Fourth ofAugust.
There is every reason for believing that
the rebel Government has made up its
mind 10 stand or fall in VirginiA and
therefore in or about Richmond. There is
q general expectation in the South, ss
well ss IN Europe, that this campaign will
be decisive, and the effect, therefore, upon
the public mind, at this crisis, Of SO serious
disaster as the loss of Richmond and the
greater portion, at least Of the State,
would be so demoraliGing, that il is very
doubtful whether the Confederscy could
survive it, even if Lees army escaped dis
organization. Richmond is, per Sc, by no
means necessary to the rebel Government;
but the desperation Of the efforts it has
made to retain it, has investedit with such
Importance in the eyes Of the people, that
its loss would soon, there is every reason
to believe, be fatal shock.
We may, therefore, feel satisfied that
nothing will be left undone to hold it.
Grant has control Of the Petersburg Rail-
road but the other line Of communication
with the South-the Danville Roads
still intact, and it is between thirty and
forty miles distant from Grants position,
and Lees army stands ready to dispute
every movement against it. twill, therO-
fore, We may feel sure, not be reached
without one or two, or it may be three,
battles Of the frat magnitude; it may not
be reached until Lees army has been en-
tirely sacrificed. The assumption SO con-
fdently put forward in some Of the Wash
iDgton kilograms, that Hunter and Sheri.
dan "Will attend TO the DsnVille Road" is
entirely gratuitous. Hunter is still q
long way from it, and, even when Sheri-
dan has effected q junction with him, it
Is net very likely that Lee will allow him
to reach it without opposition.
The Confederate army lies between
Hunter and Grant or in other words, on
the inner line, and it is one Of the diss.
greesble possibilities of the situation that
Lee may find time to hurl force upon the
former sufficient to crush him, before the
latter could interfere to prevent it. Rhe
did it would be but repetition of the ma
IceuVre which proved SO successful st
Chsncellorsville. --...-
We cali attention to these contingencies,
to show that it will not be wise for us to
look for the possession of Richmond, ex.

You may always know southern gen
tlemen by his language. For instance,
the Richmond Examiner, which is written
by none but persons Of the bluest blood,
speaking Of the nomination Of Lincoln
and johnson, says: s,5 q e..
"All these several movements We are
obliged to watch, and, If possible, under
standby reason Of their possible effects
upon the war; otherwise We have no
earthly interest in the matter, and if we
we're now ct peace with that nation, il
would be altogether Indifferent to us what
ape, or hyens or tacksss they set up to
govern them"

DEAFNESS. CATARRH,
AND ALL D1sEAsEs OF THE
EAR, THROAT AND AIR PAssAG Es

From the Home Journal, June 4, 1864.
In every business or profession, indeed in ev-
cry department Of science or skal, there is al
ways some acknowledged head-some one who
stands ont in bold relief among his fellows, as a
sort of leader in the study and treatment
deafness and catarrh, as specGal diseases. DR..
the position above described. he has devoted
years of labor to this speciality, and is now reap
ing the reward of his industry. The editorial
columns of the Tribune. of laGe date, bear Wit
Eess to the DOCTORS success in this department
of meIicine. We quote the paragraph
CURE OF A DrAE MUTE4-Louis Loewein-
stein, a lad IA years of age, horn in Germany,
came to this city when he was about two years
old. Soon aftsF his arrival here ne was taken
sick and lost his hearing. By egrees he became
first deaf and then dumb. FOr nearly ten years
he was mute unable 10 hear the loHdest voice,
or to articulats word. About one year
ago be was plsced by his parents IN
the hands of DR.. LIGHTHILL, who has so far
suceeeded In restoring to him his lost poTers Of
hearing and utteranee that he Q an converse WHO
tho who speak to him distinctly and delloer-
ately. during the past four or i've months ne
has been under the tuition Of M. Benneeke, and
has made considerable progresI IN reading and
srthemetio."
Having been supplied with tho lads address
wefurther investigated the matter, and diseov-
cred that. previous to calling on DR.. Lighthin'
the youths case WAS considered hopeless, and
he was for two years an inmate of the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum. The Rev John Mott, D. D., Pro-
fessor in Union College, Schenectady, in Puo-
lshed letter, tenders his gratitude to DR.. Light
hill, for treating successfully his case Of deaf
ness. Rev. Fred. 8. Jewell, Professor of the
State Normal School at Albany, also testihes to
having been cured of catarrh. DR.. Lghthill
possesses other written testimonials and tn
butes to his talent from some of our wealthiest
and most prominent ana respected citizens,
which may be seen on application. It would be
difficult to speak in any but terms Of praise of
his treatment, in the face Of these many proofs
and facts testfying to his success.

The Rebels and Copperheads Agree.


There are many things in which the
rebels manifest great sympathy with the
views entertained by cOpperheads. They
both dislike the negro soldiers. They both
are opposed to the Administration. They
both regard THAR success as dependent up
on the defeat of the Union forces. Among
the more recently expressed sympathies
are the views of the Richmond Examiner
and Of the New York World. Both agree
in announcing the Union ticket ''ss nom
instion for President Of Abraham Lincoln,
the Illinois rail splitter, and for Vice-Pres-
ident, Andrew johnson, known in the
West as the Tennessee tailor, one Of the
meanest Of that craft"

(Nay) 16, 952 acres were taken up in that
Land District with bounty-Iand warrants
also, that 1862 acres were located in the
same district with agricultural scrip. The
law Of I'd July, 1862, under which land
was issued, expressly forbids its location
on mineral lands, and WherO such locs-

A story About the Elephant Hannibal.

A few years ago the mansgsrie ives to
exhibit in town in the interior Of New
York, where in consequence Of an unsafe
bridge, it was necessary for Hsnnib j TO
swim q river. The weather was excessive
IL warm, and the old fellow entered the
water with readiness but when fairly in,
he found his position so comfortable that
instead Of obeying the directions Of his
keeper he concluded to remain and enjoy
the refreshing sensations Of his bath at
leisure. In vain did the excited show
man shout, threaten snd-prsys; the huge
beast paid not the slightest attention 10
their cries, but rolled his vas. hulk lszily
at times sinking completely out Of sight,
and then rising with surge spouting like
a whale. The manager becoming impa.
tient, procured gun, loaded it with fine
shot, and taking deliberate aim, dischsrg-
ed it, the shot taking effect SO far as to
mako the brute shake his leather apron
ears little, as il the fies troubled him,
and nothing more. The gun was again
lOadsd with coarse shot and again dis
charged, the load strik ng him fairly on
the rump, causing MIN to blow blast On
his trumpet which might be heard for 3
mile. Matters were now becoming too
warm for his elePhsntine highness, and
he started for the shore, when sudden
thought apparently striking him, he abb
ruptly stopped, suffering his enormous
body to sink completely out Gf sighl, with
nothing but the tip of his trunk, through
which he bresthed, exposed; and there hs
remained for nearly two hours, in spite Of
all efforts made to drive him out, finding
himself perfectly secure in his sub
squeos position from all assaults from
stones, clubs ann shot guns. Was not this
very like reason.

d i5poTIunify for men of 1Ieo1s.

Their are undoubtedly g great many
wealthy men, who are either physically
unsOund or ever forty five, who ousht new
ertheisss to furnish man for the army,
Because man is unsound in limbs or
wind, he does not owe anyless to the gov.
ernment whose protection and benefits he
enjoys. Every citizen owes the same Obli-
CATION, circumstances being the same; but
we believe the man Of wealth owes a great
eF debt than the poor man. He is under
more obligation, as the government affords
him greater protectiOn, without which be
might cot be man Of wealth. II this
plain proposition be true, what shall be
said Of the bankers and merchants and
spsoulasOrs, who beOsuse they sre unsOund
IN bedy OF over forty i've, think themselves
absolVed from the duty Of reinforcing our
armies. There are men in the City Of
Cleveland, themselves not liable, who
Should furnish dozen substitutes. There
are men, too, who though growing richer
every day and having sR-immense interest
ct stake, think it very charitable if, while
themselves exempt, they contribute q lit
tie for rbounties. 1t is no merit at ali, and
every man Of them shoald be compelled to
pay bounties in proportion to his wealth.
No man can give any reason why rich
banker or merchant, should be exempt
though over forty five, while his poor
nsIghbor being sound,an under forty i've,
is held to service. There is not the prop
er public sentiment en- this subject which
should exist. True, many Of the wealthy
men Of this city and county have done
generously, none, however, has done his
whole duty, while many fall behind In q
shameless and missrly spirit.
Men Of means, unit for service from
whatever cause, have now excellent oppor-
tunities to do for their country what they
are under the highest moral obligation to
do. Let them get substitutes TO go into
the service for three years. Let Congress,
now that it ia at work amending the En-
rOllment set, exempt for age or physical
disability only in the cases Of those unable
to pay the OOmmutstiOn or procure sub
stitute. -rE v-- e-I

The SchSOl Girls Of ENGLAND and America
nWemsy judge from the London Spec.
tstor, there is great remissness in the work
Of education in England, as well as in
some parts Of America. After noticing the
failures ct some sohocl examination at
Cambridge, it adds The girls made no
attempt at all in general TO explain the
reason or meaning Of rules-in short they
knew little Of ciphering and nothing Of
arithmetic. This is eraeiiy ,vkAt ,ys ts1.l
expect. Girls need the logic Of mathemat-
ics more, and like it less than any other
study. Their minds are strategicsl. They
like to turn the flank Of difficulty, not to
fight it." -a. .-s-e O 7s..e
Now this is precisely the system Of in-
struction which is in vogue in many pOr-
tions Of our own country. It is much
easier to turn the flank Of difficulty than
It is to fight it. tits easy to learn smatter-
ing of rules, but to go tOthe 'lrOOts Of things"
Is very different labor. Very few girls
or boys are disposed to dig down to the
foundation principles on which all rules
rest. Kthey can s5tsin to pArrOt-like per-
fection Of recitation, and pass the insufFer.

tsor followed by darkness. is often the
height Of their ambition. Education is
then completed, and, if the victim of the
foolish training be girl, she is now ready
to be married. Such often are the school
girls Of America. With young men, the
Of imperfect training are
aelt long afterwards. Indeed they never
fully recover from them.
