THE RECENT BRILLIANT VICTORIES OLD ABE,
Try THEM AGAN.-We have just had two more
splendid victories-the capture of the city Of
Atlanta and the seizure Of the rebel cruiser
Georgia. Everything goes on swimtningly for
the Union cause. The rebels must see that they
cannot succeed. Give Grant few more men,
and he will compel Lee to fight, or he will de-
stroy every railroad communication with the
rebel capital, and force that stronghold to &C
cept the fate of Forts Gaines and Morgan. aud
surrender or be battered to pieces. There will
be no chance for Richmond to be evacuated
it must capitulate or be destroyed. Now is
the time for Lincoln to be magnanimous. Now
Is the time for him to offer an armistice Of three
months to the rebels, upon such terms as cannot
be considered humiliatng. 1t is not necessary
that sieges should be raised or bockades aban-
doned during the armistice. All that is re-
quired is simply cessation OF hostiltics, so
that negotiations can be more conveniently con-
Quoted. Let Lincoln Immediately send to
Richmond three commissioners. clothed with
proper official authority, to open preliminary
negotiations. There is no improperly in doing
th;s now. Everything il bright and beamng
on our side There will be nothing humiliating
in it to the SousS and Il will stop the clamor Of
those democrats who desire 90 bring about
riots and revolution in the North in order to
crafty Louis Napoleon and Lord Pa,nerston.
The New York herald., 1864-09-06

country honorably-has ELECTED and will elicit
the widest enthusiasm; but. leagued with pro-
positions for national humiliation, II is not
name that the people will honor. Mcclellan
is not large enough to cover out Of sight the
bad points in the Chicago platform. Mcclellan
alone, without Q platform, or Mcclellan on
such platform as his West Point speech, or
on the Congressional declaration that preceded
the war, will be q .fit raliyng point for every
lover OF the country. As for the political
cliques Of Baltimore and Cleveland, 1t would be
poltic in them to reconsider what they have
done. Though 1t b barely possible that our
military successes and the Chicago platform
may re-elect Old Abe, it is not probable. 1t
is more probable that the choice will 90 out
Of the hands Of the people. These two divi-
sions of the republican party may avoid this,
and name man absolutely certain Of success.
Let them withdraw Lincoln, aud that retires
Fremont; let them unto on another ticket,
such as Grant and Sherman, and they will
carry the country without any opposition
at all; and we will not present in history the
anomaly Of nation that chose little men when
it had the opportunity to choose great ones.
THE FRENCH IN MExICo.-We very often re-
ceive reports from Mexico through French
sources. which ere invariably unfavorable to
the cause Of the republic. This Is all natural
enough; but, for the credit of their own cause,
the French journals and their secession friends
ought to try to speak the truth sometimes Ii
is but few weeks ago that we were informed
that General Dobtado had attempted to desert
the liberal cause, and that General Cortinas bad
arrested him at Matamoros and compelled him
to pay fifty thousand dollars This turns out
to be an invehtion made I" out Of whole
cloth" Again, the arrival at New Orleans Of
President Juarez's family was Immediately
connected with supposed figh. OF the consti-
tutional President from Monterey. This also
turns out to be a falsehood from beginning to
end--Juarea being still at the head OF bis army.
And so on in regard to all we hear through
French sources. Fortunately we have our own
channels Of information, which enable us from
time to time to correct the interested statements
of the interventionist press, and to publish the
truth concerning the neighborng republic.
The news which we publish to-day is of much
interest, and shows that the imperial policy Of
Napoleon is not meeting with much favor at
the hands Of the solid men and true patriots Of
Mexico Fighting Of severe kind has COM
menced in the interior-the very place where
the Mexicans want their invaders-and if the
people be only true to themselves aud their
leader the small army Of Frenchmen now in
the mountains will never be permitted to re-
turn to the sea- This is the only way in which
they can preserve the republic
The New York herald., 1864-09-06

THE Custom IioUsE.-Mr. Simeon Draper ia
the last man who has been appointed Collector
Wakeman; but Draper made such a row about
it that Old Abe got frightened, gave up bis man,
and appointed Draper. Thus it appears that
Old Abe cannot even put down The contempt
bic little rebellions and the shoddy party.
How, then, can he be expected to put down
JEFF DAVIS? This Custom House business makes
il clearer than ever that the sensible men Of
the republican party should compel Old Abe
to withdraw from the Presidential canvass, and
nominate a man with backbone.
