Of the stepping stones Of interposed Islands
gives Us no single wider water space than
nine miles, the distance from Kelley's Island
(of vinous hme) to Pelee Island, distant about
one mile and hnH from the Point Of that

And now for the reason that our war excite

The whole water distance between the points

II is now perfectly evident what Is the
work set for our armies in thi6-the third
winter Of The war. It is one of frecape.ation.
Altogether the most dishearening defcat the
rebels Lavc thls year to enstaIn is the defeat
OF their eager expectation Of seeing our ar-
mics I'LL to pieces sometime next simmer
by expiration OF terms Of service. They had
come to believe tllat the next season would
bc one of .forcordained disaster to us from
this cause, and haye not scrupled to chuck]e
at the prospect How glorsoasly have our
noble veterans already defeated this hope.
Regiment after regiment, in some places &C.
tually by whole corps, they have re-en1isted
& to sec this thing through" and thus laid
thc splendid framework, in solid, seasoned
oak Of new army that will be in the field
e.rly III the season. Not raw and awkward
maes of men, INT a magnificent body of SOL
dicy, thoroughly leaycned from our we'll
tried War heroes, with its raw recruits SO
merged and mingled with experienced and
truincd mate1inl that the campaign these
troops will open on the base Of the advan-
tagcs We now possess, will be the final one
before which this internal rebellion will sue
cumb.
VIC can well afford to give the winter to
this work, the while holding the rebels
within the confines to which We have
restricted them, giving them up to the sure
