making numbers tell. Ga the terms ne has hitherto
accepted he probably get to Richnsond and posi-
bly, take tie city, too But, beside the difficulty Of
Containing Ysar conducted there is the still
formidable difficulty Of finding object worth the cost
Richmond is not the heart OF the Confederacy. The
capture OF the town would not infjcJ mortal wound
upon tie South. As Capital, it has only been ex-
temporized for the early purposes of the war, and
there many Who think the selection was ipju-
dicious. The last letter of correspondent in
the South showed that The Confederates were
quietly considering the expediency Of transferring
the Government business from Richmond to another
town. so that the utmost conceivable success the
part OF the Fedcrala might bring them little than
empty glory a trumphsl entry of the FederaIs into
the rebel capital would insprit the North and
firm the war party in their agcendency but might do
little toward the restoration of the Union, the cub
lection of the South. There lies the great difficulty in
tie way of the North. It is hard enough as the Fede
ais have found to get to Richmond, but it will be still
harder discover when they get there, what they have
gained by the enterprise which has cost them such
enormous sacrfcts-LoHdon Times, June oh.
