Events have now proved that was right in
my conjecture that the proposed expedition to
Richmond in three columns, moving by three
different routes, was no plan Of Gen. Grants,
and that he would never sanction the adoption
Of such plan. That amazing piece Of STRAIT
egy is now known to have originated with
Stanton and Gen. Butler Old Abe insists
upon it, that when the army does move on
Richmond, it shall be so divided and shall so
move. And Badly Smith (Gen, W +. Smiih)
has seen sent down to Fortress Monroe, with
the remnants two army corps, probably l5,-
900 men in all, and Buffers forces in North
Carolina have been considerably strengthened
with this end in view. Gen. Grant has not
objected to this disposition Of troops, because
the troops sent to those points will be Just
where he wants them when he begins to move.
But he wants the whole army to go to the Pc
ninsuls, and to use the James River as base

the next Presidency Because his eye is fixed
on the Baltimore Convention to be held in
June, at which he expects to be nominated
for President and because the result OF any
movement OF the Army of the Potomac would
be fatal to his chances denomination. If the
movement should result in defeat, that defeat
would DO upon his shoulders, and would kill
him, politically If-it result in success, the

deprive him of Il, and he will loom up in the
political sky at once, so formidable candi

country are made the sport Of the unworthy
ambition of Abraham Lincoln. Y

High Prices---The True Cause.

II is quite the custom just now to attrlb-
ute the present high prices TO an expanded
currency. We are fippanty told that this
is the one cause of commercial derange-
ment, aud that if the currency were only
reduced 10 the standard of three years ago,
prices would come down In the came pro-
portion. Let US think moment, aud We
shall see the utter absurdity of such a con-
clusion. No matter what is the medium
for making exchanges, or what is currency,
or what is lawful money-whether it be
gold, or bank notes, or Treasury notes
,car prices always were and always must be
high prices. Europe learned it during her
Napoleonic wars; we learned it in the war
of 1879, and the same stern teacher COM
pels US TO submit to it now. The reason is
clear and simple. Production is diminish
ed, and, by the araSte of war, consumption
is increased. The war draws the farmers
sons from the plow, and fewer acres are
sown and smaller harvests reaped. The
mechanic arts suffer in the same proportion.
Scarcely less than two-ffIhs of our adult
male population are now devOting all their
time and energy to putting down the rebel
lion. Of these, a vast number are IN the
field with our brave Generals, a large part
man our ships of war, now counted by hum
dreds, and many are in hospitals while
those employed in the navy yards, iron
works, machine shops, and in the manufac-
tuie of military. clothing and equipments,
and in producing munitiors and supplies,
swell the aggregate to She limit we have
named.
This great class of producers cannot be
drawn from their ordinary pursuits without
great diminution in the products of the
country. When the supply is greatly di-
minished, aud the demand not only contin-
ued but increased. prices must advance.
There is no possible help for it. II We
/ could return TO a specie basis TO morrow, ii
would still be war basis, at war pricea.
There is put one execution 10 this ad-
vance in high prices, and that is the Gov
eminent bonds, and they are DO exception
to the rule, and only follow the general law
of supply and demand. The necessities OF
war have made them abundant, and there
fore they are cheap; but when the war ends
the supply will cease and they will be dear

Hunters army reached Lexington, June
artillery. After fighting a few hours the
rebels left. We burned the Virginia Mill
tary Institute, and Governor Letcher's
house. Captain Blaser's scouts captured
seven canal boats containing six cannon,
nine thousand rounds Of ammunition, and
a large amount Of commissary stores. Gen.
Duffie, having cut the Charlottesville and
Lynchburg railroad at Amherst, we march
ed by way of Buchanuon and Liberty to
Lynchburg. At Liberty we tore up the
road for several miles, burning a bridge
seven hundred feet long. Five miles frcm
Lynchburg we found the rebels in a strong
position, and attacked them June 17Ih,
driving them two miles, when night closed
in. During the night heavy reiUforcements
from Richmond, under Early, arrived On
Saturday, after feeling the enemy's strength,
it was decided that they were too strong for
us, and by night we withdrew, having ia
ken two cannon and sixty prisoners. The
Second Virginia cavalry, Saturday night,
cut the railroad ten miles east of Lynch
burg At Salem party Of rebels attacked
! Corlin's and Strauss batteries in defile,
drove off the men, cut the wheels and took
off one hundred and twenty horses. We
! brought off five cannon. leaving seven that
were ruined, together with seven caissons
and carriages that were burned by the ex-
! plosion of the former. Six men were killed
and ten wounded of the Cd Virginia caval
~. Our whole loss in the entire move.
ment is probably six hundred killed, wound
ed and missing. We have one hundred
prisoners, seven cannon and six hundred
horses captured, and have lived almost en-.
tirely off the country, and made the bigges
