THE SITUATION.

Everything looks encouraging this sth day Of
May, 1864. There seems to be no doubt that
Lee is at this moment nearer an irreparable
defeat than he has been since the rebellion
commenced. -. etfaa
Were we at liberty to mention facts within
our. knowledge, we think we could demon
strate that Lee has real occasion to dread
the strategy Of our military operations as wen
as the yigor with which they are pressed.
We believe that JeK Davis finds to-day
in reality what has sometimes been talked
about, that .it thunders all around"! ft
We believe that not only is Lee most sorely
pressed in trent, but that Butler is putting
Beauregard to his trumps on the James, and
that one Of the decisive battles Of the war is
being fought by Sherman to-day at Buzzard
Roost Gap, to which place the enemy retired,
as stronger.position than Tunnel Hin, on be.
ing pressed by Sherman. All tho indications
point to 3 glorious Union victory In this battle.
Al STATED elsewhere, Il is believed that Leeis
1alling hack, bnt we judge that in 20 doing ne
