SEcEsH ORGANS IN CAsADA.-One of the most
unscrupulous organs of the rebels in Canada is
worthless rag called The Montreal Gazette. 1t
is as devoid Of ability as 1t is of common de-
cency, and does not consult even probability
in its inventions. We forget the precise amount
which the rebel government pays for the ser
vices OF its editor; but we know that IL Is q sum
insufficient to bSre those OF smart Yankee
cook. They are sufficiently we'll paid 10 all
conscience; for the bash of lies which he Is IN
the habit OF serving up to his readers is so dif
fcult oil digestion that nobody can be iourd to
swallow it. In his journal of the 10th, for cx
ample, be states "that the federal Losses In the
late battles in Virginia amounted to lty thou
sand, "that no single battle had been gained
by General Grant," "that he has encountered
a series OF bloody checks" "that bis rctrent
across the Rapidan must sooner or later be
resolved upon" and "tbat the campaign 10 vir-
tually ended" Now this is pretty bold series
of ialsehoods in the face Of the aba ldonment

Success At Ressncca.

Success At Hessnccas
The news from the Army OF the Potomac
to day is all that could be desired. General
Grant made successful advance on Satur-
day, driving the enemy before him as fer
as Milford, seven miles south Of Bowling
pony. which General Hancock now holds, with
his gallant Second corps The enemy resisted
the advance at Guneys station; but they were
dispersed and forced back. Again, at Milford
tLey made stand. thirteen thousand strong;
but they were driven by our troops through
the town and pushed across the river with
considerable loss.
Mr.. Stanton's bulletin, dated at ten O'Clock
last night, announces that these facts have
reached him through official dispatches from
General Grant up to eight O'Clock yesterday
morning. Our loss in these movements was
inco nsiderable, while the enemy appears to
have lost severely, particularly in prisoners
In occupying Milford General Grant has
reached more than half way between his
headquarters at Culpepper--from which he
started-and the rebel capital.
We give in another column detailed
account of General Shermans battle at Res
slcca, in Georgia, illustrated by an accurate
Typographical map. With ihis valuable map
and the graphic account Of our correspondent
our readers will be able TO justly appreciate
this brilliant success ard the admirable
arrangements Of General Sherman, and tc
appreciate the peculiar abilities In virtue o
which Johnston gos away with his army
Bragg, in the same position would have bee
beaten to pieces, aud IL is not probable tina
any other rebel general but Johnston woul'
h4ve escaped with any considerable portion o
his forces.

SECOND THE M0TIoN.-The Albany Atlas
argus, boiling over with indignation, genuine
or counterfeit, at the late arbitrary seizure and
military occupation of the World and Journal
Of Commerce newspaper establishments by the
government proposes o novel mode of right
ing the wrong. 1t proposes that the demo-
cratic members of Congress, especially those
from New York, abandon their seats in Con.
grcss and retuvn home to their constituents
Now, as Honest Old Abe would say, this re-
minds us Of story. Once upon a. time, Ct a
little town in Illinois, gang of half dozen
noisy young men, in attempting to get into, .
fancy dress ball without an invitation, were
somewhat roughly elected and sent about their
business. A wag among the gang then led
them over to neighborng apothecary's. store
to deliberate upon the subject, and thon, by
way Of revenge for the insult they had received,
he said:-"Now. boys, just to spite those vnl.
gar people, suppose we oil take dose- OF cas-
tor OIL" But the boys could not ses tho mat
ter in that light; and we guess this proposition
of resignation from the Aaas-Argais will be re
garded by the democratic members Of Con-
gress as absurd as this recommendation OF q
dose of oil. Sc ar, however, as tho New York
city members in Congress are concerned, VIC
second the motion that they return to their
constituents; for then, in exchange for the
Woods the Brookses and the Herricks, we may
hope to get something better. Let the expert
ment be tried.

The STATE OF AFFAIRS IN EuRopE-SusPEN
SION OF HosTILnIEs.-After many Intellectual
attempts at obtaining peaceful solution OF
the Danish and German war, the members OF
! the London Conference have succeeded In
causing the belligerents to agree to an armis-
tice, which shall last mouth, each party to
remain in possession Of the territory they oc-
cupied at the suspension of hostilites The
afmistice began on the 18th Of May Ii leaves
the allied troops in possession OF nearly all
the mainland of the former Danish provinces,
while the islands remain to the Danes, Alsen,
which belongs to the duchy of Scbleswig,
being included.
During this respite from the horrors Of war
all that diplomacy can accomplish will be
brought to bear upon the settlement of peace
to be considered permanent. England, whose
prestige is at stake, will make immense efforts
in that direction. The tories assai the minis
teral party on this question; and, to secure
tenure of office, Lord Palmerstou and bic col
leagues will be forced to give way to popular
sentiment on this question, and secure Dem
mark from further aggression. France aud
Russia, who have time honored hatred Of
England, like to see her noundering amidst the
difficulties of this Danish war, and come for
ward with but little show of determination
to command peace. 1t may be, however, that
Napoleon will act with more energy in this
matter, now that formidable insurrecton has
taken place in Algeria, where forty thousand
Arabs are under arms and defy the French
To put down these hardy sons of the desert
will cost France both lives and treasure, and
as the Mexican question is by no means settled
to the satisfaction Of Napoleon, he may think 1t
wise to throw his influence into the scale and
obtain peaceful solution of the Danish i'm
broglio. He can accomplish this, doubtless, if
he sees fit TO take q bold stand in tae matter.
Should peace be patched up, the state of
Europe will still be far from secure. The ma
jority Of the great Powers are bankrupt; they
ruined themselves in their efforts to keep up
vast standing armies, and as natural result
they must expect revolutions The people,
rendered uneasy by the evidences Of financial
ruin, will clamor for change of government,
and the efete rulers who have SO long
swayed the destinies Of the nations of Europe
shall fall before the power they did not appre-
ciate or understand, and against which they
have so obstinately and blindly striven-the
will of the people.

GENERAL BUTLER HAULED OVER THE Goals
The New York Evening Post of yesterday
publishes summary of General Buffers late
operations, "from an authentic source" from
which it appears that eve lost, by an error of
lii'i ), several important advantages, of such
! that, in more skilful hands, they
mig nave gained us decisive results" The
substance of the principal charge thus brought
forward in leading republican journal against
General Butler is that when he had gained a
good position for effective work against Fort
Darling and it's appendages he was earnestly
advised by General Gilmore to make his posi-
ton secure, by intrenchments, against sorties
or any movements, Of the enemy to oust us
from them," but that General Butler answered
that, as his movement was altogether an offen-
sive one, che could not pause for defensive
preparations" 1t is alleged that, in conse-
quence of this unwise decision, General Butler
was repulsed, and that to recover the ground
be has thus lost will require "a large addition
to his present force"
We ask, can this be SO? Justice to General,
Butler, to the army and the country demands
that these specific accusations sfrom an
source" be inquired into. What
has General Butler to say? We call his atten-
ton to the subject. Whatever may be the
object of these charges against him, coming.
as they come, from q prominent half admins
tration and half Fremont journal, they should
not 60 unanswered.
