If our losses in the campaign from
the Rapidan to the James are 40 much
lees than has been represented from
time to time, is there no way of assur.
ing the country Of the gratifying fact |?
It is now stated by the Evening Post,
than which no journal in the country is
more reliable, that our entire losses
from the crossing Of tie Rapidan to the
crossing OF the James do not exceed
about 1000 killed-2,O00 died of
wounds, &c. in hosl ital, and an equal
number permanently disabled from
military service. Thus out Of our en-
tire wounded, frequently summed up at
from 10000 to $4,000, scven-eighls are
SO slightly wounded as to DO CAPABLE Of
returning to service after short time.
1t the actual nett losses of Grants for
ces in the tremendous conflicts ending
with Coal Harbor amour, to but twelve
thousand men, the country should
know it. If they do not the statement
should be contr adicted.-C CHICAGO Tri

SUGGESTl0N.-Itis very com.
mcndable practice TO show appreciation
of good qualities in friends, BY the pre-.
sentation of some article of beauty or
worth. In view Of this fact, we would
suggest to the gentlemen of our &C.
qnaintance, who anticipate making
some such present to their lady friends
the desirability Of procuring for such
present, something that will be not only
ornamental but useful, in any station Of
life. And what could we suggest that
would be more appropriate or accept
able present under such circumstances,
than good Seeing Machine? Here
would be something worth the while
something that would be q continual
remembrancer Of the giver, not only in
itself but in its words. Ladies, give
your gentlemen friends suggestion Of
this sort, If they consult you in the mat.
ter Of the gift, and you want really
good and scrviceable machine, one that
makes the stitch alike on both sides, we
would recommend the Weed Machine,
sold by ] Farmer. who is the North
western AgeDt::at Chicago.

may be looked for very soon. They
are greatly needed to reinforce Grant

is so far ahead of her quota that com.
paratively few men will be required
from this State. But the Eastern
States, and especially Pennsylvania,
are still largely behind former calls
