Nh FHBupExS PorIcY.-H VIII be seen BY
reference to our money article that tie indica-
Hons are that Mr. Fessendsn intends TO carry
out what appears to be his favorits theory Of
popular subscription loan. Instead Of making
bis negotiations through the banks, which have
control of the real wealth of the country, be
will probably appeal to the people by putting
on the market two hundred millions or less of
seven and three-tenths interest in currency bear
ing Treasury notes at par, convertible or not,
as he may choose, at their maturity in three
years, into six per cent interest in gold bearing
long bonds. Ii is even supposed that he may
add to this o large amount Of compound inte-
rest six per cent legal tender notes and gold
bearing bonds, giving the public the option of
making their choice of the three kinds Of
securities.
The immediate result Of this policy will be
withdrawal Of deposits from the banks, which
will force the latter to sell out portion Of the
government securities Of which they are now
holders. The banks will thus undersell the
government and check subscriptions to the new
loan, (which may consequently prove failure.
That Mr.. Fessenden should have sacrificed ma
tional utility out Of regard for technicality in
his negotiations with the banks is matter of
grave regret, and we are apprehensive of the
consequences Of the policy he seems bent upon
pursuing The warning furnished by the fail
ure of Mr. Chase seems lost upon him, and he
invites similar fate

JoHNsToN's RErREAr-THE PRopABLE FAIL
OF Observation-Disclosures is apparently
not disposed to fight even at Atlanta, and we
may, in all probability, learn at any hour that
that place is occupied by the Union army.
Johnston knows very well that he cannot fight
the army that is at his heels and is wise enough
not to try. He knows that Atlanta will be
ours anyhow, whether he fights for it or aban-
dons it; and be knows that if he fights and
loses it he will lose his army also. So he will,
in all likelihood, let the city go, and save his
men for some more hopeful enterprise than its
defence. Though we could have hoped that
Johuston's army, which is of infinitely more i'm
fore it reached that place, or captured in de-
Tending it, yet it is evident that the fall of this
great rebel city at the extreme South will have
great moral effect. Atlanta has come to be
considered, especially by the rebels, as second
only to Richmond in its Importance to the con-
federacy, and its fall will be regarded as dis.
aster scarcely less great than would be the fall
of the capital itself.
Last year the several great successes of the
year came together. 1t looks now as if there
would be no great fellow triumph to be associ-
ated in point of time with the fall of Atlanta.
Lee still bids us defiance at Petersburg, and
gives no very evident sign of distress. Our
letters from the Army of the Potomac indi-
cate the monotonous progress of siege, and
the probability of its continuance for many
days. But if we were to study probabilities
from Gen. Grants career in this war. and from
consideration of his peculiar intellectual
characteristics rather than from the observa.
ton of facts as they are apparent in the army
just now, we would not relinquish all hope
that the capture Of Atlanta would have al as
sociate victory. 1t Is certain that under che
influence of the awful energy of that Titse in
blue coat the whole appearance of affairs on
the James may change in an hour; and 1t is
doubtless this reflection that keeps the people
patient, though it is over seventy days since the
army left the Rapidan.

ingtea. II ives hoped. toe, shas TIE removal Of
Chase would be followed By these reforms; but
We now begin TO think that nothing short Of
some financial or military misfortune requiring
an extra session Of Congress will bring our
easy going and inoredulous President up to the
mark.
Let him be admonished, however, that in Sc
curing the Baltimore nomination and in shelv-
ing Mr.. Chase the Presidential election is by
no means secured. General Fremont, as
an opposing candidate, may be a mere baga-
telle; the discordant fragments of the old demo-
cratic party may be regarded with commisera-
ton, and the disaffections in the republican camp
may be treated with contempt SO long as all
these elements of hostility are divided among
themselves; but the moment this idea Of the
necessity OF new administration begins to pre-
vail among them the whole faco Of the politi-
cal campaign is changed This is the danger
which now menaces Abraham Lincoln-the
fusion Of ell the opposition elements of the
country for the common object Of his defeat
This combination, too, may be effected; and
General Grant himself, however unwilling may
still be constrained by the pressure Of public
opinion to become the peoples independent
candidate for the succession.
From the present condition Of our financial
affairs, and from all the signs Of the times, it is
quite possible that before the end of sixty days
the defeat Of Mr. Lincoln may cease to be a
doubtful question. He must do something
within this interval to revive his dropping for
tunes, or from the difficulties of the Treasury
and the embarrassments of the country popu-
lar combination may be raised for change at
headquarters as resistless as that of 1910.

From Sheridan.
His Command Beyond Harri
sohburg and En- Route
to Staunton.
Early's Scattered Columns Hasten.
ing Down the Valley.

Dispatches received by the Government this
morning, containing the latest report from
Gen. Sheridan, announce his arrival at Harri-
sonburg on Monday and his Intention to follow
up the pursuit Of Early, who was fastening
toward staunton with the shattered fragments
of his defeated and demorallzed army.
Every attempt of Early to take advantage of
the Gaps in the Blue Ridge mountains to an
noy Gen. sheridane rear, has been defeated
with great loss To the rebels.
Below is an exclusive report, furnished us by
a gentleman just from the front, of the repulse
of the rebel wickham, by Gen. Torbert, on
Saturday last. It proved a serious disaster to
Early.
At the present time OF writing Sheridan has
undoubtedly reached staunton. 1t is very
doubtful whether Early will be able to MAKE
a stand there unless he is strongly reinforced
by Lee, which, for reasons that we do not car,
to state at this moment, we believe he can
not afford to do.
All along the route Of Early's retreat hil
men abandon their arms and equipments, anC
private dwellings arc filed with sick ant
wounded.

FROM TENNESSEE
Forests Advance Suddenly
Checked by Rosseau.
Forrest in the Same Fix With Early.

We learn. officially, that the advance OF the
rebel General Forrest has been suddenly
checked at Pulaski, Tennessee, to which point,
northward, he pushed after destroying the
railroad bridge over Elk river, mentioned in
our dispatches yesterday. General Rosseau,
the gallant Kentucklan, is on the war path
against Forrest, and commanded the Union
forces which repulsed the latter at Pulaski.
At the time of the fight the whole Of For.
rests forces had not reached Pulaski, but ii
he has no more than seven or eight thousand
men altogether, as Is reported, Gen. Rosseau
with his entire force, when 1t is concentrated,
will be able to deal With Forrest as Sheridan
he's with Early.

The report In New York this afternoon that

Another report that Lynchburg has been at
