One Year Ago.

The days are dark. Gold is quoted at
$40, Sherman has not taken Atlanta,
Grant has not taken Richmond, Sturgis
has met with disgraceful defeat, Sheri-
dams last raid accomplished but little,
and Hunter did not take Lynchburg.
The war has of late not gone we'll with
u.s. In fact, it has really gone the other
way.
But why despair of the Republic?
Good readerl Good friendl Look back
one year, Just one year to the very day.
Then Lee was in Pennsylvania, with
powerful army, menacing Baltimore,
Washington, our State Cap ital and our
beautiful Quaker City. Then even Pitts
burgh was thought to be in danger, and
our citizens were busy throwing up for
tifcations. Then Grant was besieging
Vicksburgh, and Banks was besieging
Port Hudson, and there were grave
doubts about the success of either. Both
had been severely repulsed in assaults
upon the enemy's works. Gold was up
10 179. The hearts of loyal men every
where were heavy within them, There
was no bright ray visible anywhere upon
the horizon. But in a week-in two
weeks-how everything changed! On the
lst of July the battle of Gettysburg COM
menced, and on the 4th, Lee, with his
broken and defeated army, was in full re-
treat TO Virginia On the 4th, too, Vicks-
burgh surrendered, and that strong for
tress, with its garrison of $4,000 men fell
into the hands iof Gen. Grant. On the
Sth Port Hudson fell, and $500 Rebels
laid down their arms. Gold at once went
down to 125. The peoples hearts were
gladdened, and there was thanksgiving
throughout the land.
The situation now is not as grave as il
was one year ago. We have met with nj
disaster in front of either Richmond ol
Atlanta. Our armies threatening thOsI
places are stronger than those of the Reb
els. Why, then, shall not victory agair
crown our banners! Why shall tht
gloom of to-day not be changed into JOY
tomorrow Surely there is no good rea
son why hope should not fill every breast
and why the coming Sabbath at the Ma
tion, ,,ifit does not bring to US all that ",
desire, should not dawn upon a peopl
grateful that the God of Battles has jour
neyed with them thus far.-Fitts6urgI

fact that large numbers OF white men are
required at the North TO do necessary labor
which is done by slaves az the South--to
settle the fact that, as the war is now going
on, the material for soldiers must be used
up very much sooner in the South than In
the North. SO far as that element in the
problem goes, there can possibly be no
mistake that It is decisive for the North
Now, how about the other element
Will money fail the North, sooner than
men the South? This is question which
is not so determinable by definite figures
as the other Yet it seems to us that
analogy enables it to be answered just as
| surely. Three wears of war, as has Just
been shown by Mr.. Chase in the table
published by us Yesterday, have loaded
| the Government with a debt of seventeen
hundred and nineteen millions 1t is
safe to say that three years more of war
will not more than double that debt
making it less than thirty-fye hunded
millions 1t is true that the prices of the
material of war have greatly advanced;
but this is abundantly Offset by the fact
that great number of ships and vast
amount of material, which will not have
to be replaced have been provided
from our present Indebtedness, and the
other fact that no small portion of this
debt accumulated before the tax and tar
if systems, now in operation, could be
established to help meet the current ex~
penses Could we not stand thirty-6Ve
hundred millions of debt without break
ing DOWN. The answer to this is that
Great Britain, with less than halt of our
population and available revenues, had a
heavier debt than that on her shoulders
fifty years ago, and that so. far from break
ing down under it, she has all the while
since been advancing with the strength of
a giant This is the decisive point. If
we can endure the debt, regularly paying
of its interest when due, the whole hnan-
cial system of the Government is secure,
and a national currency, based on the
national credit, can be maintained TO the
full extent required by the business of
the people The end ::of the next three
years would see us heavily burdened, to
be sure, but still uncrushed. But where
would they find the armies of the rebel- !
lion? If the last three years have put
five hundred thousand rebels hoTS an com !
BAT, and there are but four hundred thous-
and able-bodied, men left, it needs no labor
ed calculation to prove that, with the same |
active prosecution of the war, the last |
rebel soldier would be in the same con-
The fighting of the 'Confederaey" will
be brought to standsstill simply from |
the lack of men to do the fighting. And
when the "Oonfederacy" ceases TO fight
it ceases to exist
We think we have fairly answered the
question we started with. If this be so,
it is a weakness to doubt the final issue
of this war. If the Northern people con
tinue to sustain the Government as they |
have done hitherto, the final breaking |
down of the rebellion is as sure-unless
Heaven turns against us-as any physi- |
cal result can be.
