Gen. Grants Last Success.

We were, yesterday, indebted to Gov
Johnson for soopy Of despatch re-
eeiyed rom the Secretary Of War, de
failing the situation in Eastern Vir-
einia. and announcing the complete
success Of Gen Grant in aankingr and
finally defeating Lee in pitched en-
eagement The intelligence is all that
any one could desire. It eYinees that
Lee had exhausted his forces, in the
contests between the Rapidan and
spotsylyania, and vas unable to offer
serious resistance outside Of his en-
trenchmeats 50 that no sooner was he
aanked, than he was compelled to
make hasty retreat toward Rich.
mond.
The North Anna River, at the point
where Grant crossed it, is q miles from
Richmond; and It is probable that he is
now much nearer than that, to the reb-
ell capital
Lee viii undoubtedly concentrate
again, in a atrong position, and make
one more desperate stand; it is his
only hope, and he win do all in his
power to avert his final doom, which he
knows, and JEFF Davisknows, to be the
doom Of the Confederaey
The struggle is not over, but We feel
confident that the crisis is past,and that
victory is now certain to reward the
efforts Of the loyal masses, in the cause
Of country, and Of right We shall
await further developments with deep
interest
The Nashville daily union. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1862-1866, 1864-05-26
Lose Yirglnia-LOse All.

There is a remarkable similarity of
tone among the Richmond journals,
while speaking relative to the war and
the results Of certain reYerses, or sue
cesses, to the armies We have already
quoted from three of them. to show that
their editors believe this the last year
OF the war, be the winner which it
might; and now we have some further
testimony upon point, which we illus
trate by an extract from the Richmond
Examiner some time since. The Exam
iner of May 10Th says;
The enemy have concentrated IN Viz
ginia. If beaten here, he is beaten ey-
erywhere Ii he wins here, he wins
everything. The war might continue,
the Confederacy might possibly survive
but if Virginia is lost, the present
Confederate organization will not prob
ably survive. Heaven and earth now
calls on the Government to bring up all
the troops at its command.
The unanimity Of sentiment among
the Richmond editors, can arise from
nothing save feeling that the people
have fully resolved not to continue the
struggle, if the present campaign Is a
losing one. Nor would they so nearly
agree, if the people were not almost, If
not altogether unanimous, in their de
termination upon the subject
The evidence must be indeed clear
as the light of day, that would carry
conviction to these noisy political lead
ers, and compel them to divulge truths
that must gall them beyond descrip-
ton.
That the contest in Virginia is life
or death struggle, being thus admitted
by good authority on the rebel side, it
becomes the people Of the loyal States
TO give to the government every sup
port, that the shock of arms, though
bloody may be brief; extend to it all
the support needed to insure a crown
ing and glorious victory, and the pre-
servation af the Union, through the
destruction of the military power Of
the rebellion.
Grant, at latest advices, was advanc-
ing; and we are confident that he viii
continue in his onward march-slowly
though surely-till Lees army Is de
stroysd, and Richmond taken. Re
member that, when Virginia is lost to
the Confederacy, the Confederacy itself
is virtually dissolved

INVASION OF KENTUCKY.-The military
authorities here received information
Yesterday that the famous John Nor
gan, at the head of four thousand men
and with eight pieces Of artillery, had
passed through Pound Gap into Ken
lucky. His designs are, evidently, to
get supplies for his balefamished com
mand and cut the Louisville and Nash
vile railroad. There are troops enough
in Kentucky TO thYart his designs and
use him up as eflectuslly as when he
visited this side of the Ohio river We
can't see why the old horse-thief takes
so many chances Of getting his neck
broken. We have no ides he viii get
of without scratch or two should he
be again captured What a brilliant
thing it would be for our city regiment,
which, we learn, has reached Louisville
safely, TO surprise the-old rascal some
fine morning, and bring his scalp home
as a trophy.
We clip the above from the Indian
apols Journal of yesterday morning.
We were advised OF an extraordinary
movement Of troops in Eastern Ken
lucky on Monday afternoon, but the
news was regarded as cOntraband, "
and we RETAINED from giving il to the
public. Morgan has not yet entered
Kentucky. The latest news at head
quarters last night was 10 the effect
that he was concentrating about 5000
cavalry at Abingdon, Va, for the pur-
pose OF making a raid into the State
This we are assured he will not be able
TO do, as there are ample troops in
Eastern Kentucky TO resist any adj
vance the bold raider may attempt.
We are not permitted to give the dis
position of our troops, OF their strength.
