Our Resources in Men.

The rel els map as we'll understand that
|a|though our armies have been completed
considerably by fighting in their swamp
and jnnges, we have graf many men
left. In Massachusetts, for instance, TIKI
militia rolls show the names OF fitty-three
thousand between the ages Of eighteen and
twrnty four years.
Under their new law, the mi'iti1 Of Mas
sachuset's arc divided mo the active class
and the reServers-those between eighteen
and twenty four years being armed ane
drl ed as the actives, and those between
twenty four and forty five being enrolled
and held as reserves. 1t is reasonable t
Isuppose that the number OF reserves, whose
ages have range Of twenty one years, il
double the active militia. whose ages have q
range Of only six years. This would give
in round numbers, one hundred ana fifty
thousand available men in the little STATE
OF Massachusetts,, without going eyond h
ordinary ages for enrolment. THIS stat
IL ent wi | give the rebels an approximate
idea OF our reqources in men.

ments:
For the first time since the commence.
ment Of the present campaign there is a
reasonable prospect that Richmond may be
captured or rathor rendered untenable.
While General Grant was operating on the
nor'h side. with the rebel lines Of commu.
nicaton on the south side uninterrupted. the
chances Of war were all against us but now
the case is b1avely altered. This move
ment by the left and 20 the rear OF Rich
mond is precisely the same manuever, only
on bolder scale, by which the rebel works
at Mine Run, at Spottsylvania, on the South
Anna, and the Chickahominy, were render
cd nntenable and useless. We do not proph.
|esy that Richmond will be evacuated, but it
certainly cannot be held any length Of time,
If General Grant is allowed to get possess
sion Of tho roads by which it is. supplied
from the South. ,.....
The Chicago Times and other Copper
head journals also admit that the capture Of
Richmond is now but question Of time.
TIE prospect must cert .ihly be encourage

confess it.-Presa.

Rebel Pluck.

The rebsl organ in Chicago grows NOR
and more plucky as the fall Of the rebe
capital grows more and more certain. Hea
it:
1T is this spirit in which is located the
,rebellion-in which is found the resistanc.
to our a, ms, and which is fl Thing US every.
where from the Rio Grande to the rsbe1
capital, Il is not the Southern fortified
tons, Oh Southern cotton, or corn cribs, o,
mills, or dwelling houses, or negroes. that
makes up the rebellion, but it is the spirit
Of tt people there ore. when we capture
forts, and contiscate Land, and steal negroes
and cotton, we are not touching the thing
that is in Sebcl|ion."
= i: X
This Administration can never conquer
the South. 1t may reduce it to smoking
ruin, but there will be the same rebellion
then that Their. is now. It will Turk, rife
ia hand, in swamp and thicket, and will re
main there on thu watch for victims until
the time shall come when the Governm en- t
shall carry the olive branch with the sword
until it shall mingle cancellation With lis
attempts at subjueat:on.''
The rebel organs in Richmond d. not
quite see in that light, but they and their
b. other in Chicago are equally p1ucky, and
show kndre spirit. This is what the
