AN Improvement,

1t is noticeable that during the present campaigns
few battles take place on Sunday. The enemy has
been tbrashed into respect for the day. and we
think that General LEE is anxious to avoid any viola
tion of its solemn Stiffness and repose. At any rate the
announcement most generally made in regard to the
movements on Sunday is that all is quiet at the 'front.'
1t is hardly respect for the day that actuates our
enemies but most probably repeated disasters on that
day have led them to regard it unlucky. Such we
think is the sentiment with the private soldiers what
ever feelings the officers may have upon the subject
But whatever them to keep quiet on Sunday it
is well that they do 30. War is bad enough at the
best and less than any other occupation, can afford to
dispense with the day rest in seven. Even in
moral point Of view, that rest may do good and can
hardly do harm.

Pushing Over

1t would appear as though General GRANT intended
to transfer his forces to the South Side of the James
River At any rate he has changed his base from the
York to the James, and is getting opposite to Bermu-
da Hundreds, where BUTLER is already entrenched
He will find as many difficulties On the South Side
as on the North sde though it can hardly be denied
that he will be in position to subject to good deal
OF loss and inconvenience by his harasang attacks
upon our railroad communications. 1t will be neces-
sary Tor us to guard the Petersburg ard Weldon Road
the Southside Road between Petersburg and Lynch
burg and the Richmond and Danville Road and with
all our vigilance it is very probable that communica
ton by these roads will be occasionally interrupted by
the rading parties of the enemy who will also be in
position to threaten Petersburg as well as Richmond,
which he will no doubt d. keeping the people in q
state of constant excitement and uneasiness
1t may be that we premature in these specua-
tons and that Gen. GRANT will make some further at.
tempts on the Peninsula before crossing over to the
South side of the james, but we think, that he a,H
cross, and that General LEE looks forward to such
movement being made by bis antagonist, and is pre-
pared for it, The works on the South side of the city
of great strength the only great difficulty which
we will have to encounter will be in the defence OF the
railroads, requiring almost continuous line from
Richmond to Petersburg, and then they will be
subject to being cut by occasional dash of the enc
iny's cavalry.

FROM THE FRoNT-THE ENEMY IN FOa CE.
The enemy are determined to annoy our people with
all the means and appanc at their command, if they
cannot effect our subjugaton. At this time they are
threatening half dozen localities in Virginia
requiring the part of the Conederates the exercise OF
all the vigilance necessary to watch closely the move
ments of crafty and insidous foe. Our imnedi-
ate vicinity was again menaced yesterday, and at
several points by such show of force, that it was
doubt the intention OF the enemy to have effected
entrance into the CITY, had he been permitted to do
At early dawn citizens aroused by the dis
charge of artillery the sound OF each cannon being dis
tpcty heard here, and coming from the direction of the
City Point road. At o'clock, it ascertaned that
the enemy was advancing in force, and every man
able to shoulder musket did so, and FASTENED to the
Notifications.
We learned last evening, that the main point of
attack was on the City Point road, distance Of or
miles from town. At early hour the enemy ad-
vanced with at least seven regiments OF Infantry and
one OF cavalry, upon some breasworks thrown up has

in check by COL Ferrebee's men and Graham's (Pe-
tersburg) battery for four hours, who fought bravey
but were finally compelled to fall back before overwhel.
ming numbers. Ferrebee's men inflicted serious loss
upon the enemy, and GraLam's battery sheled the
masses ct bis men with admirable effect. Our men re-
tired in good order, and sustained but few casualties
during the fight. It is stated that Graham lost one
gum in consequence of the horses being disabled but
we know not that this is correct.

lines, but his were attacks feeble and easily repused

Wednesday night and there is every to suppose

Northern Party moveme 10 Is.

The regular Republicans-the Blacks of the Ad
ministration stripe-have nominated ABRAHAM LIN
COLIN aid ANDREW JOHNSON for President and Vice
President of the United States.
The radical Republicans Blacks witha streai
of Red IN them have nominated j. @. FREMONT anc
john CoCHRANE.
Who the Democrats or Conservatives; to meet al
Chicago, may nominate remains to be seen.
Without military successes of the most decisive
Character for the Confederacy, Or without forcible
movement at the North, LINCOLN and JOHNSON have
the track ct all odls.
FREMONT will hardly carry large vote except among
the ultra radicals of the Northwest His New York
associate may bring portion of the bhoy element to
bis support but not sufficient to influence the result in
any way. Decided and overwhelming military success
ges, resulting in the defeat of GRANT and SHERMAN
might give fair chance to peace candidate but
nothing else can or will. LINCOLN and JOHNSON will
Tx up the bogus Southern vote for themselves and bear
down all opposition, if they maintain the appear
ance OF success, or even avoid disaster until the fall
Ii this appearance OF Federal success is kept up-no
matter how deusi7e it may be- there will not be
enough backbone at the North to take any decided
and eectua stand againet the admission of bogus cleo
toral delegations from trumpe1up State organizati
the South and these bogus electoral colleges or deega
ilons' like the fictitious organizations they represent
being the creatures of LINcoLNs administration WILL
course go for tie reelection of that Individual.
1t Is evident that, far the Northern elections
GRE concerned everything almost depends upon the pro
gress OF the military campaigns in Virginia and Geor
gia. The Conservatives or Democrats may nominate
MCCLELLAN any other leader, but they cannot elect
him. even with the assistance of FREMONT unless there
be such decided tendency in military affairs as vii
strongly incline the Northern mind to peace. Indeed
without such tendency and its resulting effect upon
Northern sentiment, any change would probably be for
the worse rather than the better since any one elected
would go in as war man, possibly with elements Of
strength not possessed by LINCOLN and with the fresh
impetus that always accompanies the advent of new
dynasty.
Morally, we DO not think there is much difference be
tween ABRAHAM LINCOLN and ANDREW JOHNSON
Perhaps upon the WHOLE LINCoN is the better of the
two. Both ore demagogues without any principle
whatever, but JoHNsoNs treason to the Constitution
and to the constitutional rights of his section is GER
family the more recent and the more violent JOHNSON
we think is the able and therefore the more dan
ger man of the two. Our dislike to ANDREW JOHN
SONS course does not blind us to his ability That he
ls semade is certainly his favour but it is to
be regretted that his beeuture did not extend to his
nature, and seems only to have had the effect of
sharpening his cunning and ntensying his seshness
at he expense of all the higher qualities of human ma
ture.
